    Finished the game this evening! Damn... this game sure left me with some scenes that will forever stay etched in my mind. It's not for the scares that I will remember this title for but it's for the sheer gritty, dark and macabre environments that hooked me in and kept me intrigued that I will remember it for. The fog, the mist, the dark and dimly lit corridors and rooms... I loved it! 

    Having said that the combat in this game, at least for me wasn't a particularly smooth experience. Probably it's just me but the melee attack system (specially because I was a heavy weapons user in the game) felt very slow and clumsy. Plus, the recovery time after a heavy attack with a weapon like the Hammer or the Axe is way too long and when fighting faster enemies like the glowing monster (aka Irohihi) and the blade legged girls (aka Harai Katashiro) was sometimes very frustrating. Also, when these monsters bum rush you they have a very big chance of getting the best of you very quickly!

    Also, the story felt so bizarre at certain points in the game, specially towards the end! This was good and bad in a way because I think it kept me playing right till the end and even though this game has multiple endings (which unlock on multiple play-throughs) I think the ending on the first play-through is the one I liked the most (I read about all the endings on Wiki after completing the game as I won't be giving this another play-through again).

    Levels that I will never forget from the game:

      Reveal hidden contents

    - Paddy Fields

    - The Dark Shrine Rituals... brilliantly grotesque!

    - The Final Boss Fight!


     

    Completed it last year, absolutely loved it. First ending is same for everyone. I won't play to get the rest of the endings, it's a cathartic experience. Looking forward to the next one Townfall.

    My prediction of Cena vs Rhodes at WM41 came true. Although I couldn't have predicted the heel turn but obviously it makes sense. Eventually, Rhodes saying, he wants the John Cena schedule few months back, will be used I guess

     

     

    I also think Jey will lose to Gunther at main event and then Punk will use his favor with Heyman to beat Gunther and become World Heavyweight champ. Either Seth pins Roman or Roman beats Seth and Punk just doesn't get the pin but loses WM 41 Saturday main event.

     

     

    Bayley vs Roxanne (Could be too early)

    Lyra vs Becky for WIC title at WM41

     

    Too many title changes before WM are a surprise to me

     

     

    Aleister Black and Rey Fenix returns are teased.

    Finn vs Dom is almost a lock

     

     

    WWE EU tour is really amazing. Punk vs Rollins Steel Cage was an amazing match. Punk had stellar strap, HIAC, War games, Netflix premiere and now Steel cage match. I cannot imagine him not winning a major title at WM. WHC is the only one makes sense. Gunther teased that he is 'Best in the World' back before Survivor Series.

    i want Dr. of Thuganomics back man, that version of Cena was lit af, followed by the Chain Gang n!gga :happydance:

    Definitely will happen at least once before he retires.

     

    Cena vs Orton at Backlash for WWE title is likely as RKO will beat KO at WM

    WM 41 card according to my guess 
    Cena vs Cody for WWE title
    Punk vs Rollins before that Punk beats Gunther for Heavyweight title
    Gunther vs Kaiser 
    Roman vs Rock
    KO vs RKO 
    Bronn vs Dragunov 
    Naomi vs Bailey 
    Jade vs Bianca 
    Liv vs Raquel 
    Charlotte vs Tiffy 
    Becky vs Lyra 

    Rest I don't know

    Should I wait for it to buy it on PC later, or PS5 version is fine? Played first one with KB and mouse, so wanted to know if controller strick is gonna be an issue or not. 

    It's already at an all time lowest on PC. It's a masterpiece, no reason to delay playing it. If you have a strong pc, play on pc, else PS5

    Completed Indiana Jones and The Great Circle two days ago.

     

    Undoubtedly it is my game of the year. Taking Uncharted and Tomb Raider format, making it even better with melee combat as primary, very few can dare to do, let alone achieve it. Puzzles are easy but really well done, almost like original Tomb Raider games

    I started it but never finished. Infact I played only 2 to 3 hours. Should I start again.. 

    Best Star Wars game, even better than Jedi Fallen Order. If Alan Wake 2 didn't release in 2023, this would have been my game of the year.

    But today's move really doesn't make any sense, it felt like it was meant to happen. I mean he literally lost out of nowhere or you could also say that gukesh won out of nowhere, even though everything was pointing towards a draw. No one can guess how heart wrenching it must have been for him. 

    Grandmaster Jonathan Rowson brilliantly explained his 55th move Rf2 blunder

    Be careful and safe man. Congratulations to Gukesh, his family, team and supporters. I am extremely delighted for him.

    Sheamus, Bron and other guy. Good match.

     

    Spear from Bron breaker is amazing. The yeet idiots can learn something 

    Jey Uso is the worst top guy who looks decent in the ring, thanks to camera cuts. In person, his wrestling looks the weakest.

    Not a great match but Shinske is far better than other crap stars there are. Hope he achieves his potential now. Triple H gotta use him well now. 

    Andrade is an extremely good wrestler. They should feud. Cole mentioned them battling for IWGP IC title on this past Smackdown.

    DM me If anyone wants to sell their pixel phone

    I am curious to know why do you want to buy an old Pixel? I have 4A which is working great, only battery decayed. I don't want to sell it.

    Watched WWE Live in Liverpool, this past Monday. The show was amazing, much better than my first two experiences in New Delhi.

     

    Cody spent 30+ minutes after the main event signing autographs and taking selfies even though he didn't have to.

     

    The wrestlers who I thought are also great without camera cuts - Bronn Breakker, Bayley, Gunther, Gable, Jacob Fatu, Andrade, Cody, LA Knight.

     

    Tiffany still needs to improve, Naomi wasn't smooth with her. Nia is really trying to be as careful as possible. Without camera cuts her moves really doesn't look scary except maybe running senton

     

    Jey is terrible. But merch sale is huge. He's massively over. Guys whom I saw in action 7 years apart live in person - Shinsuke Nakamura, Chad Gable and Randy Orton. Orton was the most over guy after Cody then Jey. Cody gave away a £250 weight belt to a kid

    Does it get better? 

     

    one or 2 occasion, i felt like punching the hell out of the writer :P 

    If you felt like that, chances are you will not like the game et al. This is not your typical go here and do this with markers and distance showing, handholding game.

    I completed the game. It was lot of fun. I enjoyed it way more than first game.

     

    Now hopefully DYING LIGHT 2 will come to GamePass soon :P

    I highly doubt that it will. The game has been protected for two years to not go below 50% officially. They made the first dlc Bloody Ties free with the Reloaded edition. There is no roadmap on when DLC2 will be out, similar to Dead Island 2.
