I wasn't really liking Skyrim. Going to try out Red Dead Redemption, so I'm back in download purgatory for a while.
RDR1? It took me 2 attempts to get into that game but played it all the way through once I gave it the energy it deserved. I haven't found that energy to do the same for RDR2 yet unfortunately and haven't progressed very far into it. I got overwhelmed by side quests and thinking about the little things trying to make sure I didn't miss out on anything, when I really wanted to just focus on the story. I should give it some more time and ignore everything but the main story.
RDR2. I tend to like getting sidetracked in side quests and things. Which Skyrim had plenty of, I just didn't enjoy the game mechanics and lack of context to the quests - I have no idea which the "main" storyline was, there was no indication of what level quests were and to add insult to injury I got turned into a vampire.
I’ve been playing with a lot of googling and the walkthroughs open. I enjoy it best this way. Witcher 3 remains my comfort game.
Witcher 3 kept crashing on me, especially in some sections that were part of the main questline. Other than that it was quite good, although a bit heavier on the recorded video rather than gameplay approach in some sections.
Oh yeah it's definitely a VIDEO game
