Anyone playing bloodstained ritual of the night? If you like old school castlevania games like symphony of the night, or the GBA castlevanias, it's a winner. I doubt Konami will venture back into this style castlevania, so this is the next best thing.

Overwatch 2
Diablo 4
World of Warcraft Shadowlands.

Just one of those would have made a Blizzcon for Blizzard to announce all three they have to be feeling the backlash for being douches the past couple years.

Everything but Overwatch 2 is great. With how they made Overwatch 1 and it's content updates, a sequel doesn't feel right. I guess lootbox sales weren't high enough.

Funny because Fortnite, the “live service” I play since that’s what friends and family play, just gave us “Chapter 2” for free and the Battle Royale mode doesn’t have loot boxes either.

Well that's because Fornite was a F2P game lol, it wouldnt make sense to start charging full price for a game that was previously free.

Everyone is a day one buy for me, if Overwatch 2 has strong PvE and strong Blizz storytelling I'll deal with the uninspired graphic update.

Diablo 4 will be huge, I love the dark look to it. I never realized D3 sold 30 million copies...

WoW, I'll get it just for nostalgia and give it a month, if it don't pull me in oh well.

I thought overall it was an incredible first day Blizzcon but they revealed I feel 2 Blizzcon's worth of material. D4 and the new WoW x-pack would have been enough. I think they went a little overboard with the apologies for the China/ Hong Kong fiasco and should have just kept it about the games but all in all its probably the best Blizzcon ever.

Thank God for some odd reason I got a free virtual ticket from Blizz, I never would have paid for it lol.

Anyone playing outer world? I'm about 7 or 8hrs in and it's pretty cool. If fallout 76 left a bad taste in your mouth, this is a must play. The new vegas team did a great job so far. I'm hoping it continues to be great.

It is on my list if I can ever get done with Borderlands and Metro: Exodus.

I can't wait to start borderlands 3. How is exodus? It's on gamdpass like outer worlds so that was on my radar as well. The nice thing about outer worlds, it's not a 65hr plus adventure. From what I've seen it's more like 20/30hrs. So much more manageable from a dedication standpoint.

If you liked the first one you will like Exodus. The gameplay is basically the same with improved graphics, improved crafting, and a new open-world element. There were some technical issues at first causing game freezes, but I think those have been patched.

The only really hard part I have had with the game is switching from something like Borderlands where you can basically be a bullet sponge with unlimited ammo to a game where ammo is scarce and one shot can end you.

BL3 is awesome. It is basically more of the same thing you had in BL1, 2 and the pre-sequel, but with different planets added to the mix and more of everything else (eg more guns, vehicles, etc). About the only thing I wish they would add is a crafting system that would at minimum allow you to level up your guns and items. Nothing sucks more than getting a gun or a mod you really like at level 8 and having it be near worthless by level 12.

That has been my one complaint with the borderlands series from the start. Outer worlds has a system to upgrade weapons so I'm digging that. I get why borderlands doesn't have it as that is the point of loot and shoot. Keep looking for that next cool weapon.

It is the one thing I miss about playing BL on PC. While technically a cheat, it is easy to level up your items.
