Still playing Borderlands 3 as my main PS game. 2 vaults down, don’t know how many more left.
ATOM RPG is hard! I don’t recall having such trouble with Fallout 1 and 2. Either they weren’t this hard or I have become used to easier games. I think my problem is how I distributed my stats, giving me a very intelligent but a weak character, that keeps dying in actual fights.
Read up a bit on it about character stats, and thinking about starting a new game with new character.
While I kept dying in ATOM RPG, I looked through my backlog and started Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All. I loved the first one, but took a break before diving deep in the next one. So, playing through that now. Still a great game, might even be better than the first one. I’ll probably finish this before I go back to ATOM.
Also started Trails in the Sky: Second Chapter on PC. Prologue was very interesting, just started Chapter 1. Playing it slowly on the side, when I generally don’t have access to PS and Switch, not cause the game isn’t fun, but because I don’t enjoy playing on PC much. Fortunately only Trails in the Sky is left on PC, and all other games are available on console, so shouldn’t be too much of a trouble.
What about all of you? What have you been playing?
The engine is definitely dated graphically, but they are still a blast. I played the Enhanced Editions on Xbox. I had never played any of them before, although I do like RPGs and enjoy older games.
So coming in cold and playing them quite thoroughly without any outside knowledge (I never follow guides), I would rate them as follows (out of 10):
And just to make people upset (and show that I’m not an easy grader):
I haven’t yet finished the Icewind Dale games.
I did also play the first Dark Alliance game and would give that a 7.5.
I have receipts for all of these scores, lol.
Interesting. Thanks for the review scores!
