I was going to post this long before TLOU2 released. But I thought making a quick and easy joke at the game's expense would get someone(s) up my ass about it. So I'm posting my belated thoughts now, and giving a general update of my effort to play more games.

[i][b]Hollow Knight is fucking amazing.[/b][/i]

Seriously though, Last Of Us 2's story is just bad. 

But I actually posted to say that Steam's Summer Sale is on. (Plus you'll get $5 dollars off a $30 purchase.)

So I basically got Ori and the Blind Forest for free. (Along with various games that have been sitting on my wishlist for a while.) And while I'm talking about platformers, the next game I'm attempting to get engrossed in is Owlboy. Where what I imagine is the first real level, contains an "optional boss" which is guaranteed to be fought by any player. Because it's the only way forward in the middle of an empty room, that ends up being practically impossible with a mouse+keyboard. (Something others confirmed when I looked it up, just to make sure I wasn't going insane.) But quick speed-bump aside, I'm looking forward to continuing.

Since I stopped playing The Talos Principle fairly early on, because 'the themes' were starting to feel even more tedious than the puzzles. <.<'

Also, assuming you have friends to play it with, For The King continues to be my go-to weekend experience. Since it might be the first game of its type that I got all my friends into playing.

Though I'm also playing Smite now, upon a friend's insistence. So any chance of getting a better MOBA to play after Blizzard has become dead to me, is something that I'll at least be keeping my eye on.

[i]And yes I'm still very behind on games. But the good news is, I probably won't have to worry about too much stuff coming out for the equally fugly 'next-gen' consoles.[/i]

Also, starting a betting pool on Cyberpunk 2077. What will it be? A masterpiece. A 'Watch Dogs'. Or a 'No Man's Sky' (before it supposedly got good.) My money is firmly on mediocre at best.
