Anyone else feel a little miffed by these further additions? On the one hand I’m glad to see the game get bigger and better for new and current players, but I just finished a full and leisurely playthrough after 2.0 and it almost feels like the version of the game I played has been downgraded by comparison. I’m sure this not a healthy or mature way to think about it but it is kind of how I feel and I wonder if I’m alone?

Yeah I know what you mean. I think I feel the same way about replaying it. I want to keep the memory of my journey intact.

Death Stranding. As a Metal Gear fanatic, the disappointment I felt on my first attempt at playing it was immense. Only got a few hours in before writing off as just not for me. Tried again in a different frame of mind, different time in my life, and it clicked. One of my fav games of all time.

Funny you say that, I’m loving the new systems because of how much more powerful I feel. I guess it’s just more even overall now?

Hated it at launch, loving it now. Playing between my PC and Steam Deck and having a great time.

Yeah I’m trying to play a sort of Picard paragon but I’m already thinking a sort of loveable scoundrel anti-hero for my next play through.

That’s the one I was talking about! What did you do in the end? I stuck with space cops and regretted it until they gave me the reward. Big chunk of change.

Completely in love with Starfield. Just finished a big storyline that had the feel of a good TV serial. The sort of self-directed epilogue of looking at my quest log and trying decide what I want to do next felt awesome and I’m going to be chasing that for while.

I’ve got a space adept pacifier shotgun that I named “The Boarding Party” and I keep in a chest next to the docking hatch on my ship.

Completely agree. It’s almost become default for me to remap the bumpers to the top back on my Steam Deck.

That’s annoying. I’m playing on an ultrawide so will probably get the same issue if I switch to TV.
