Only on PC. Runs great on Xbox
Finally committed to it and beat XCom 2 Long War of the Chosen. I donāt want to know how many hours it took. I think I ended up with like 125 missions. Probably could have beat it a bit earlier.
I can now move on with my life.
Narrator: ā6 months from now he started another campaign.ā

Ugh, gotta do Uber Sirus to get it to drop, though. That fight is a mess.
Itās my least favorite fight in the game. I canāt see shit!
And you canāt stand anywhere
I havenāt played that much since Sirus came out, but he and the mud fight are awful. At least the mud fight you can get enough DPS to one-phase him and skip the shit part.
Mud fight is getting fixed, at least. The mud isnāt going to hurt as much, and the bug where he can attack you while underground is fixed.
Callisto Protocol is scary and unsettling. Itās kinda fucked up playing it for long periods of time.
From the Dead Space creators nice, I forgot about this one Iāll put it on my list.
Midnight Suns has a āPress āFā to Pay Respectsā in it. So far itās ok verging on pretty good. The XCOM-ness is a bit overstated, at least in my opinion. XCOM felt like you were on a battlefield where this feels more like youāre on a chess board. Positioning, cover, range, etc were extremely important, whereas with Midnight Suns itās mostly angles that are important.
Fun tidbit is that Magik complains that the Avengers donāt trust the X-Men which has been a long running thing. Oddly faithful to the comics is that you have to travel through limbo with Magikās portals, even though in the game itās a bit of a time waster to walk into a portal, walk on a magic road in limbo to another portal and then go through it. Otherwise it hasnāt really done the deep cuts I was expecting to see here and there.
I assume its fairly surface level since the main character is an OC.
Im not super far in, but I havent seen Logan yet and considering he is on the cover I keep expecting to, but I heard there was like a 5 hero roster cut before release. Did they cut out one of the cover guys?

I built a new computer 16 months ago, held off on buying a video card because they were so damn expensive, and the intel integrated graphics were good enough to play Xcom and random other low graphics stuff I play.
I bought a RX 6750 XT. I hadnāt put together a computer in probably a couple decades, so I didnāt realize I would need supplemental power running to it, rather than just the power in the card slot.
New Egg gave me the Callisto Protocol for free, so Iāll try that out. And I bought Red Dead Redemption 2 because Iāve heard so much good stuff about it. But, even with this new card, the thing I want to buy / play most is Dwarf Fortress, hah.
Does anyone know if Midnight Suns is mod-friendly? Iām a big XCOM guy, but not a big Marvel guy. Iāve watched some on Twitch, not sure itās quite up my alley. I thought I might wait a bit and see if any modders make it even better.

Random dude went on stage with the Elden Ring team when they accepted their award. The final thank you:
Also, the Game Awards got AL PACINO to present an award.

I bought DF because of how much those developers have given to players over the years for free, knowing I probably wouldnāt like it. Couldnāt even get through the tutorial but I still think itās really cool that this game finally exists on Steam.

This, while funny in isolation, sounded like a major dog whistle to me (didnāt watch your video, at work) - Clintons, Judaism 
TGA is always fun if you like Video Games and can enjoy schadenfreude, Hozierās song was pretty good - they get some other random famous people too. Daniel Craig had a pre-recorded video too.
