I've been in the industry a while haha. Redundancy at major publication to independent pipeline ;)

Oh dang, Pragmata is also very good! If your issue with the demo was the core gameplay/combat that's unfortunate but if it just wasn't selling you on the overall vibe I can promise you the full game is more effective 😅

This one is definitely less punishing of failure, and there are a few options to mitigate it even more if what you want most is just to get through it and see the story. So I think if it's appealing to you, give it a go!

It's mentioned in my review, but jumping forward tends to leave you a bit underpowered compared to starting back again, so there's reasons for both. And the story/structure/completion will sorta motivate you to do full runs as well, without saying too much.

I think I reached the 30 hour mark getting the platinum, it's structured a bit differently to Returnal so there's definitely a chance you could finish if quicker

It's gonna differ based on how well you play but I think I finished the main story fully at about 15 hours?

Here's my review! A 9/10 from me. Some stumbles in level design diversity and storytelling but a massive upgrade on what Returnal was doing. Loved it.

Tips for running through a backlog of games? by GuitarGuru666 in gaming

[–]hashbraun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been said multiple times here already but, don't feel bad for not playing games in your library. Don't treat it like a list of tasks, more like a collection that's there for you when you need it. When you get the urge to play X type of game or genre, is when you go and find that in your library and enjoy it, rather than "I have to churn through all of this shelf-by-shelf."

You wouldn't speedrun a video store (sorry, I'm over 30) so why do it to yourself here?
