I opted to buy Divinity 2 last night - just about to give it a whirl when the wife leaves!

Mine left years ago, but I think it was mainly Witcher 3 that was the problem.

I just find memory based games like that massively tedious. Rather than get through new encounters based on your skill, you have to 'learn' the moves of each enemy, which can only be done by dying repeatedly to them. I don't like easy games, I just don't find that kind of mechanic rewarding.

Obviously they're hugely popular so they must appeal to a lot of people. I just find them really dull.

I feel that. Dark Souls does tend to rely a bit too much on the high of beating it. As for it’s difficulty, I don’t think it’s really that hard. It’s all about remembering the mechanics as you said above.

There any more recent games similar like Civ or Galactic Civ, Europa Universalis, etc?

*might want to include "good/excellent games like such"

Just got Metro Exodus too. Haven’t played a non-FIFA Xbox game in years.

Anyone played that Friday the 13th game? I'm aware they were barred from putting out any further DLC a while ago, but is it worth picking up for a tenner?

Nah it’s a bit crap mate. Sadly.

Wasted potential really, a story based game could've been great

I know they had loads of issues with it but I doubt there’s many even on the servers anymore.

I tried it and it was basically broken still after about 900 patches.

The Division 2 next week, looks decent.

Well I stayed up till about 5am playing a quirky PC game called HellSign. Still under development but it’s really unique. Crapped myself a few times.

Downloaded COD 4 Modern Warfare Remastered as it’s the free PS Plus game of the month.

This is the first game that really got me in to online multiplayer. The nostalgia is going to hit me like a bus.

This and Halo 3 were the only online games I cared about. Just resubscribed so I could download it. It's going to be fun replaying the story, especially that last plane mission on the hardest difficulty

Devil May Cry 5.

Absolutely insane. And bloody great for it.

Imperator: Rome is out soon. Until then, have you played Stellaris?

Looks like you need a PhD to play that mate.
