The Backlog Check-in Vol. 39: 9/30/18: Assassin's Creed Odyssey Edition

Post by argyle »

Games added: Nothing

Last week: Finished nothing, played Shadow of War

This week: AC Odyssey! :D

Been looking forward to Odyssey for a while now, so happy that it's finally here. Excited to see the changes that they are saying turns it into a full-fledged action RPG now, as well as the Greek mythological stuff.

"When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed
if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I
became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the
desire to be very grown up.” ― C.S. Lewis

Yep, that game looks good to me. I'll need to play Origins first, but I'm interested.

Finished: Nothing

Now Playing: Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age

Added to Backlog: Nothing

Current Backlog: 30 games

~65 hours into DQ XI and still loving it. I feel like I'm getting to the end of the main story due to certain events, but we'll see. I haven't spent any time in the casino, which is usually helpful in DQ games if you can use specific strategies.

I wish you had played HM: Friends of Mineral Town so I could hear your comparisons. That's certainly one of my all-time favs, and I'd be curious about a comparison perspective.

btw, Happy b-day (saw j post it) and Ravens look good, huh?


In terms of my gaming, I'm still loving Yakuza 0. I also started Claire since it's October and was in the mood for some horror, and I saw it in the endless ps+ freebies. Pretty good vibe so far.

Thank you! Yes, I'm very happy with the Ravens... they seem to be one of the few well-rounded teams in the AFC (good offense, defense and special teams). Hope they can keep it going.

I played one Harvest Moon a long time ago... can't really remember which one, but I don't think I finished it.

Games added: Burnout Paradise Remastered, Humble Monthly Bundle (3mo) which so far has given me Overwatch and Dungeons 3

Last week: Finished nothing, played Shadow of War, NMS, Stardew Valley

This week: Dungeons 3, Overwatch (maybe)

Figured I might join back in on some of the discussion. I played some Dungeons 3 last night right before bedtime and it was hard to put it down. It's definitely a spiritual successor to Dungeon Keeper. I'm looking forward to playing it more.
