Man, I know Elex is not as well known and received as Gothic but it still is my favorite open world game ever. There is just something about the mixture of science fiction, high fantasy and post apocalypse Mad Max style that made me fall in love with the game. In the beginning the big monsters in this world are fucking strong and beat my ass every time. I loved it and it is incredibly rewarding to get stronger and then fuck those bastards up - just to get mauled by the next even stronger monster/robot. One of the very few open world games where I actually explored every nook and cranny! You will be missed Piranha Bytes!

I played (still in the middle of KCD) both games on the Switch. Both do work good for what they are: ports who definitely punch above their weight!
I played KCD on the PS4 when it came out and I can tell that there are some compromises, like less details in the distance and choppy animations when a person is walking far away from me and framerate dips in crowded places.
Aside from some stuff like I mentioned above, the port is great and I was really surprised how well everything looks. If you want to play the absolute best looking version of the game you already have it for your pc anyway but if you ever want to have the most flexible version this is definitely a great port of a great game!
I totally agree with you on the fact that people act like Capcom murdered their grandma or something. There is no need to make stuff up when the facts are bad enough on their own. I guess one reason people are so upset is the fact that microtransactions can be an actual and dangerous addiction to some people and are usually only found in multi-player games or straight up casino type stuff. Dragons Dogma is a beloved game and cult hit for a reason and this whole thing absolutely taints it's "reputation".
Anyway, I think it's great you seem to still enjoy the game and that's what matters at the end of the day. Cheers!
Not defending the mx in Dragons Dogma 2 but at least in the first one I think the way fast travel works was kinda good. It's cumbersome and not very flexible but it fits the kind of game it is and you have to actually think about where you want to go instead of zipping around the map. Imo
The first one is a bit of a hidden gem imo. I thoroughly enjoyed the investigation part and walking around the city! They managed to capture a sense of 'there is a story around every corner'. Combat does the job but not much more. Also: the way you have to make a choice which lead you want to follow on the map is a great way how they de-cluttered it. I hope the second game is just as good and better than the first one!
I played Call of Duty 3 on my Wii, so that's one more platform. It's also the only CoD I spent a considerable amount of time with.
It's a joke! This website tries to be funny/satire.
Just in case no one bothered to check: This website is satire. The list is not there, because that's the joke. Not a good one but, oh well.
If you don't believe me: From the About section:
Hard Drive is a very real video games news site that you should not question. Just absorb the information as truth and move on. JK it’s satire don’t ban us.
Just as a heads up: No Man's Sky has the creative mode where the whole survival stuff and the mindless basic material collecting is pretty much turned off. My daughter and I went on relaxing treasure hunts just the other day, jumping between solar systems and walking around on dangerous surfaces without grinding stuff first. It is a do-what-you-want game at this point.
Eh, there is a ton of content creators who make cool stuff and don't endanger other people.
The rating is 77. 77 is the lowest rating a game in the main series of Assassins Creed has received. This means the other games have 78 or up. How in the world is this considered bad? For an entire fucking franchise? Not a fan of the series or anything but I just think it's ridiculous how this is an actual headline! Don't the journalists have nothing else to report on regarding video games and the industry? Layoffs? Toxic people and business practices? Microtransactions?
Nah, instead they go: "pretty good (but not great) game is slightly less good than other pretty good (but not great) games in an overall pretty good (but not great) franchise." Ugh!
Well, they still support the Switch really good with tons of games still coming out - first, second and third party. Also a lot of the "cool" indie games getting a switch port makes it the perfect machine for people like me who love that kind of stuff but are not into pc's. Dredge and Dave the Diver come to mind. Love, love! both of them!
