I'm about 30 hours in with my power level at 106 or something and, pardon my French, but this is a fucking great game! I simply love this new formula of these three past Creeds. I've completed Grantebridgescire, Ledecestrescire, a certain "special place", and yesterday East Anglia's story arc, which was practically on Witcher 3 level, by the way. Really enjoyable. Now I'm heading to clean up East Anglia's area of everything, that's been my routine after completing the plot in a new area. I enjoy this loop immensely, there games are perfect for me. <3

I'm playing on PS5 and dear Lord this looks beautiful. Really pretty environments everywhere. And the smoothness on 60 fps is just so good. And the loading times are practically gone, I love this.

The day has come for Europe as well, and yes indeed, I now have my very own PS5! Super small number of units available at launch here in Finland at least, so I feel very lucky right now. Made my preorder at the local game store in June, I think.

Now let's go! Some Astro fun first and then onto Valhalla, is my plan.

Mega64 at it again. :D

Platinum #145: Telling Lies. Man, I'm kinda disappointed in myself with this one. I thougth I'd like this more, but the whole process seemed super long when I started to realize how the game works. One huuuuge jigsaw puzzle, this one. Didn't like the nature of this, in the end, so I went for the guide and got at least the platinum out of this.

Platinum #144: Lost Ember. A great amount of collectibles in this one, so a guide is highly recommended. A really neat trophy card here, I feel, but the platinum trophy itself looks ugly af: a horrible hand-drawn picture of Keanu and the name was "You're Breathtaking!". Uuufff.

Hottake!

After 43 hrs I just finished the game with the platinum trophy. That was some weird shit, you all! I really rarely play these kind of games, but I decided to give this a chance because of the positive buzz around it. And yeah, I enjoyed it mostly. A pretty staggering amount of story and dialogue and it all rose up to some really heavy scifi levels. Miwa-chan ftw! And BJ, too!

Platinum #143: 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. Basically just finish the game with S ranks and all the objectives done in the Destruction mode. Plus unlock and/or upgrade all the Sentinel powers etc.

I'm starting to wonder if Marko will let Albon even finish the season at Red Bull. Four races left, Turkey will be in two weeks.

I'm smiling like an idiot seeing that animation style from the movie when that suit is being used. That's so cool-looking! :)
