Those are new types of SSD - you need newish motherboard to have a slot for this one. NVMEs might become necessary in the future - it is them that allow rapid loading of PS5. Microsoft implemented “direct storage” as well, which is supposed to help in loading data if you own NVME.

Hades II will be launching into Early Access on Steam and Epic in Q2 2024 https://www.supergiantgames.com/blog/ Not quite and update I was hoping for, but it still more concrete than Silksong.

My favourite harper story is when I escaped moonrise imprisonment and teleported to take refuge in last light. As my fugitive status haven’t expired Harper’s guards imprisoned me again, for daring to escape prison of their enemies, after getting caught sneaking on a mission from them. For a neutral faction they are real sticklers to the rules.

Let me rage for a bit: Before Christmas break I played a bt of Gears5 - got about midway through and fought and defeated a pretty bad boss - lengthy bullest spunge, with weak point at his back, designed I think in coop in mind. AI partner is absolutely useless in this fight so it's up to you. The boss can easy one shot kill you if you make mistake, and it's a multistage fight. I managed to get past him months ago, watched cutscenes, entered a new region, and I quit and didn't touch the game until today. It didn't save. I got booted back to the beginning of the bull**** fight. 🫠the save showed about 110h, though that doesn’t count reloading, though I didn’t reload much. Maybe add an hour or two at the most. I don’t think they were pointless. The first one felt like “see how powerful you grew” - mawing through enemies you fought throughout the campaign. There are a lot of enemies there, and enemy turns do take time. I think it would be better if I wouldn’t try to save up combat resources. How was I to know that Larian made a dungeon in which you can’t rest in, only to add full-rest machines after every encounter 🤭 The 2nd one tutorialised a mechanic that final boss used, so I think it is somewhat necessary. It did feel off pacing wise - but I would blame the narrative side for that, over the gameplay.Finished! Yeah, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, considering what I have read over at Larian's forums. I did found it drag on for a bit took long.Was it? I found it rather dull. Like a lot of act2 it lacked narrative drive. I am also not fan of Larian dungeons, that tend to look like alien spaceships.I think this is it folks. My journal looks suspiciously empty, and I run out of unexplored houses to break into. I think it is time to start wrapping things up. We will see if the ending is as bad as people claim. I clothed Laez in drops from edgy bosses. Suits her well, I say (Potential spoilers, open at your own discression)Big question won't be answered until a pre determined time.Well, there is always Portal, for a good J. K. Simmons.I have explored most of the city, and I am starting to see the end. Gathered two of the infinity stones, but I still have some loose companion quests to do before going the final one.Starfield setting definitely appeals more to me. Fantasy world need to put in work for me to care, where is semi grouned SF is easier for me to connect. I haven't played enough to make up my mind on the gameplay loot. I just broke free of the rigit tutorial. So far, my only wish would be for it to be more immersive - allow me to feel like I am exploring space, but maybe I will find a way to feel that.Played a bit this evening. I am quite disappointed how traveling with ship is handled. Not the mechanics behind it, but that they didn't try to make it immersive - they encourage fast traveling (can one not fast travel? I have figure out how to set up jumps landing without using fast travel feature) a bit too much. I expected for it to be more like Freelancer - fly to a specific part of the planet and than trigger cutscene. If there is some form of cruise speed, I haven't found it.And people complained that Deadfire was too short.Forge golem is a gimmick fight - it’s very possible to kill him by just using lava and conventional weapons butFinally found the man himself and his hamster. Had to the fight twice and the first time the game bugged out and he died for no reason after getting knocked out.If waiting for Starfield is too painful for you, here’s is a way to burn 10 hours of you life 😅https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1086940/view/3669924544104905987?l=english So BG3 doesn’t have “cut content” as was suspected (aka. stuff Larian wanted in the game but didn’t finish in time to ship). As such those hoping for major “restored content” patch, hoped in vain. Still, Larian is paying attention to feedback and look to address some of the complaints.
