Every button leads to 20 more buttons and oh there's a screen trying to sell me something and look there's another 30 buttons and 45 game modes and
Finished Veilguard this evening. Turns out it is a good game, but you have to get about 20 hours in for it to start paying off, and another 20 after that for it to REALLY pay off.
Dodgy writing in the early game and some awkward characterisations create a barrier that you have to slog through.
Two buttons meme, one button is the oh-no gremlin indicating fear, the other is elmo fire embracing the chaos

Basically RPG things are missing, like knowing what quest a level is before I get destroyed by being massively undereleveled, or not having access to quests I won't understand yet.

The level of choice was great, but I think it would benefit from more base presets to start from so you don't have to customise every aspect.
Bluesky having an influx of people moving from The Old Place (tm) is giving bumping into old friends in the supermarket vibes.
Like hey, haven't interacted with you in a while, but we can pick up right where left off and have a good time

Star Wars Outlaws stands out as a great game in the SW universe that doesn't focus on Jedi or the Force. Lots of world building with some fantastic gameplay, been really enjoying it. Obligatory #PhotoMode shots taken randomly along the way. #StarWarsOutlaws
