Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin, Tower of Guns, Xenoblade Chronicles - New Releases

Not sure how people have all this time (some to waste) to play new games EVERY week. Or the money, unless you're a pirate, AVAST. Hell I'm still working on Dying Light, Alien Isolation, and downloaded the revamp of Oddworld Abes Odyssey. Different strokes for different folks I guess. I think the only games I'm waiting for this year are Until Dawn and The Division.

DS II Scholar of the First Sin has changed the brightness settings. It's much brighter now, but in a bad way. The sunlight in Majula is hurting my eyes. I just prefer the way the game looked before the upgrade.

I started playing "Scholars of the First Sin" on PC 2 hours ago... it is kind of degrading the Souls series further? If you weren't a fan of *B-Team* Dark Souls 2, this 'upgrade' will disappoint you even more? Placing some enemies in the same level, next to almost invisible visual "upgrades" ... changes nothing. It still is a non-Miyasaki-san B-Movie of a Souls game.

Demon's Souls - Dark Souls 1 - Bloodborne ... are a pinnacle of game design and obsessive attention to detail. This DkS2 thing is not...

Yay! Yet another rehash of a last gen game. You can't make a last gen game current gen without redoing the entire game. The best rehash has been GTAV in terms of graphical and performance updates. However it is still a last gen game. Dark souls 2 still looks like someone ate a buffet and puked all over the screen. Well it doesn't look THAT bad but you get my drift.

I'm thinking about getting xenoblade chronicals.

Did GS even do a new releases video that included Pillars of Eternity? Talk about ignoring a critical and market success. What is it with the spite? I mean, here they even call a re-release of an old Souls game after some tweaks a "new release," but no...no Pillars of Eternity love. I'm beginning to think GS is deliberately ignoring it at this point. One review may come, but to not even have any discussion articles about different aspects of the game...while other games that clearly suck or have nothing much to offer in terms of depth (like Bloodborne character class selection) get loads of articles. After 11 years as a loyal GS reader, I have to say the quality lately is in the toilet.

Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin is available on PC too, just noting.

I guess I shall take a look at Bastion unless Sony/Supergiant decide to overprice it. I really enjoyed Transistor and have heard nothing but good things of Bastion.

Already have Scholar of the First Sin pre-installed and ready to go.

Might take a look at Affordable Space Adventure, Wii U's been sitting idle a while. Just completed Ori and The Blind Forest on PC, so I need something new.

Bastion should be a good time for those haven't played the PC version...and aren't AAA ONLY snobs.

Did they just say Dark Souls 2 First Sin looks "super hot" graphically? They know this type of language will incite me to rail against the ugly, flat graphics! Sure 60 FPS on next-gen is great, but the graphics themselves are so inferior to truly "super hot" visuals as seen in Bloodborne, the Order 1886 and such. I will now remind everyone of the original "super hot" graphics of DS2 that were REMOVED and do NOT appear in this First Sin edition. LOOK AT THIS BETRAYAL:

Bastion could be fun.

Going to be picking up Xenoblade Chronicles, absolutely loved the game on the Wii!

Oh, I got two more days to finish the chalice dungeon and get the Bloodborne Plat before Scholar of the first sin comes out!
