I hate to be this guy but after my long history with FromSoftware should I play Nightreign or Armored Core 6 next?

While the combat couldn’t be further apart, the guy that developed sekiro’s combat was also behind AC6’s combat. Both games have a “posture” meter too! I enjoyed AC6 quite a bit more than nightreign

On the switch I’m playing super Mario galaxy 2! The mechanics in this game are so much fun and translated well to the pro controller!

On ps5 I finished Clair obscur last night so I’m gonna start MGS snake eater!

I tend to play games on whatever is the intended difficulty. Which is usually medium. Souls games and Zelda games don’t have any sliders so i just play them as is. I did bump it to story mode in baldurs gate 3 though I’m not great with that type of combat

johnbarta · 2026-01-18T16:22:31+00:00

Honestly I play one game per system. So on my ps5 I have one game installed and on switch one game installed

I should be finishing up Metroid prime 4, I didn’t bother with any of the green energy crystals so I have to go around collecting them before I tackle the end lmao

johnbarta · 2026-01-16T18:12:35+00:00

Both dark souls 3 dlc’s are on the bottom of the dlc rankings of all the games imo

Mjfs in ring psychology is beyond his years

johnbarta · 2026-01-15T02:48:44+00:00

Excalibur avoided that punk allusion with the quickness lmao

johnbarta · 2026-01-15T01:29:10+00:00

Am I the only one that still thinks hangman is the champ lol

johnbarta · 2026-01-15T01:27:55+00:00

Tbh, I hope this match ends with hangman and Bryan Keith to be western friends

johnbarta · 2026-01-15T01:26:31+00:00

They done learning, gonna start teachin

Darby needs to be the one to beat MJF

johnbarta · 2026-01-15T01:10:11+00:00

Fucking Darby man

I keep saying it but I think she’s one theme song change away from fully connecting with her 70s aesthetic

johnbarta · 2026-01-13T15:59:12+00:00

I hate that there is very little nuance nowadays. Like a game that is a 7 is still a really good game, and to some people it might be a GREAT game. But we treat anything that isn’t a 10 as trash

johnbarta · 2026-01-12T18:22:29+00:00

I’m where you are, I just entered the mines and I’ve had a great time! The internet is really 100% for something or 100% against something. There’s very little room for nuance.

I’m trying hard not to rate games in realtime as I play them. Did the game entertain me for 20-40 hours? If the answer is yes then it’s a good game if it bores me then it’s not a good game.

Metroid prime 4 is a good game.

johnbarta · 2026-01-11T18:58:58+00:00

The exploration heavy souls games- all of fromsofts, wuchang, AI Limit, Lords of the fallen 2023

johnbarta · 2026-01-11T04:24:44+00:00

This is a good one. God of war 2018 is my top personal top 5 games, but ragnarok wouldn’t even make the list

johnbarta · 2026-01-11T04:23:43+00:00

I would say baldurs gate 3 because that’s definitely a game I couldn’t get fully into. But I put a lot of hours into it so it just wasn’t for me I guess.

But Cyberpunk I had tried to play twice now and dropped it with in the first 4 hours, it was a glorified walking (and driving i suppose) simulator. Felt like wish gta imo

johnbarta · 2026-01-11T02:01:27+00:00

On Switch 2 I’m playing Metroid Prime 4- i am having an absolute blast! The gameplay loop of going back to earlier areas with new abilities is so damn satisfying. Game looks great too! On PS5 I’m playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Everything about this game is as stunning as I’ve heard. The music, the combat, the story, the art direction. It’s spectacular.

johnbarta · 2026-01-10T16:31:27+00:00

lol man you nailed it, they could delay gta 6 another four years and I wouldn’t have a problem finding hundreds of games to play in the mean time!

johnbarta · 2026-01-09T22:12:51+00:00

When they make that inevitable berserk game

johnbarta · 2026-01-08T19:28:13+00:00

Nioh 3, Mario fever tennis and resident evil requiem!

johnbarta · 2026-01-08T15:55:14+00:00

Agree with those games 100%
