Oh... I didn't realise you were on console. I highly doubt it :( I'm pretty sure save files are encrypted to prevent cheating, at least on PlayStation.
First game I got or first one I bought for my own money? The first game I ever got and played was Super Mario Land for the GameBoy. I remember when the hype around Pokémon Red/Blue coming to Europe was building I was trying to calculate how many weeks of allowance I would need to save up to afford it, so that might have been the first one I actually purchased, I can't remember for sure if I bought it myself or got it as a gift. Diablo 2 launched a year later and I know I bought that one as I vividly remember the car ride back from the store, so otherwise that might be it.
All of these were of course incredibly worth it. I would never have gotten into video games without that GameBoy and Super Mario Land I think, and Pokémon was a formative experience for me as I got to participate in the whole Pokémania phenomenon. And Diablo 2 is one of the games I have the most hours in over my childhood, it kept resurfacing over my school years as me and the other gamers in my school would randomly get the urge to start playing Diablo 2 again randomly almost yearly over the course of like 8 years after its release.
Ah damn that sucks! :(
I'm sure there are save files to download at various points from the internet, but that's not as fun either I suppose.
I am in the third and final major area of Ronin, after this is a return to the Edo area for the finale of the game as I understand it. I've played a ton of it but the game is really long, especially if you not only 100% the areas but also spend some time just fighting bosses for fun in the dojo. This last week I've played less of it though as I was hit a bit by open world fatigue, so I took a break and checked out the Out Fishing demo and played through INMOST finally (which was super good).
Well, I want to build suspense you know! I like talking about games so I don't want to blow my load early! But as a little bit of a teaser I bought Withering Rooms and Death Howl.
Probably will play some more Rise of the Ronin. I caved and bought two games during the recent sale that I am very keen on, but I should make an effort to finish games before getting sidetracked. I might crumble though, we'll see. One of them is a Soulslike and the other has Soulslike-ish combat, so they might be of more interest to this sub than Ronin. But one thing at a time I guess.
Can't really give any input on Elden Ring DLCs unfortunately as I haven't even played Shadow of the Erdteee.
Yeah that would be fantastic.
Mine as well, although not super high up on it. I keep hearing good things though.
– Vår studie visade att om man lägger ut arbetsförmedling på fristående leverantörer så blev det dyrare, men det ledde inte till bättre arbetsmarknadsutfall
Så ni menar att det är ännu ett exempel på att tillit till den fria marknadens osynliga hand enbart leder till att den pekar långfinger åt en?
Chockerande.
The game has no identity, it's literally just stuff the team saw in other popular games thrown in haphazardly. It's a soup. RDR2 had trains? Chuck it in there boys. Same with the random Zelda sky islands. There is some fun to be had in it I think and it seems to appeal to a certain type of gamer, but I wouldn't expect the game to make any sense.
Depends on what issues you had with the way the game was. Some fundamental issues remain but the game is much better now than on launch. Here is a good video about it.
It's such a great community, and actually surprisingly active!
Also of note that Hampus has made his first hire and stated elsewhere on Bluesky that he's looking to further expand the team. Positive news.
Forced 2-stop due to the mandatory 25-lap stint limit. Lusail has a long pit delta and overtaking is impossible (almost) so entertaining the 3-stop is pointless. The race will be determined by navigating the 2-stop in the best manner.
Death Howl looks amazing but hearing it's that hard makes me little hesitant. I've also heard that it can be a little grindy. But it looks like such a wonderful work of art that I couldn't resist buying it. I hope I can manage.
Withering Rooms is a game I've had my eye on for ages but have been trying to wait for a deep sale on. But it has never been below 20% and so when it was 30% off just now I finally snapped. I've heard some really amazing things about it, it has some dodge-based combat that should appeal to souls fans, as should the vibe and storytelling. And I didn't want to keep postponing it because the sequel is supposed to come out later this year so it would be nice to play through it before then.
