Finally returned Assassins Creed: Unity after its rough launch & you know what, this game absolutely slaps! The setting & time period are amazing, Arno & Elise are incredibly underrated characters & the Parkour is some of the most fluid in the series. I miss classic AC 😭

Threw together some little 1 second clips of the trip too!

Back from another magical 2 weeks at #DisneyWorld with the mother! take me back already 😭

(3/3) House Va'ruun are described as this religious, alien-esque culture shunning outsiders, but Dazra never felt like that to me, I expected more tension & mystery. I do look forward to future additions to Starfield but Shattered Space doesn't quite meet the mark.

(2/3) The main story fell short in length & depth. The finale & Dam quests were stand outs with some decent Level Design & action set pieces, I also generally enjoyed the sci-fi hook in the story, so I wouldn't call this expansion bad, just a little disappointing.

Shattered Space - 3/5
(1/3) #Starfield's first expansion to me just felt, ok. I liked the return to a singular, self contained map with classic "If I see it I can go there" Bethesda style world design. Theres plenty of interesting POI's to explore & fun side quests to complete.

Hey gamedevs! Does your cool and awesome game need a level designer? Consider bringing me aboard, furthering the statuses of both the cool and the awesome. I've worked on a couple indie titles and also have plenty of free mods you could try right now. DM or email 1600frogs@gmail.com

Of course Skyrim was my first Steam purchase 🤦‍♂️

#Starfield

I’m glad the story is gripping enough to make me press forward. There is alot to like here, I was particularly drawn to the TV’s & Radios as Im a sucker for environmental & auxiliary storytelling. But the combat is so frustrating that I cant even bring myself to complete the DLC.

#AlanWake - 2.5/5

While the characters & story were gripping with a nice mystery at its core. The gameplay brought the experience down, in particular the combat & camera. Ill chalk this up as a product of its time & look forward to a more positive experience with Control & AW2.

Oh I’m the same, survival games don’t really hook me unless they have a USP or do something different. But the worms and the hovercrafts are a real big draw for me. Plus your amazing stories 😂😂

Every time you talk about this game you make me wanna play it 😂 you and and TikTok are really marketing this game to me!

After Sam Lakes brilliant talk at Develop, I think it’s about time I played #AlanWake

Today’s 2nd film, #Superman! A great start to a new DCU with great casting & performances especially Supes, Lois & Lex. The supporting cast quickly flesh out this DCU making it feel larger. However it feels a little rushed & overstuffed, quickly moving from set piece to set piece

Double billing films today! First, #FantasticFour dare I say it was… FANTASTIC! I love retro-futurism so the set design & world stood out. This cast & their versions of Marvels first family are an instant favourite. With Thunderbolts & now F4, it feels like Marvel is healing!

Wrapped up #Atomfall last night. I sank in 30 hours, explored every inch of the game, followed every lead and scoured every nook and cranny (bet I still missed something though.) It’s been a while since a game has left me wanting more, truly my surprise game of 2025 so far! 🔥🔥

I have given it a go and it didn’t quite click for me but I will give it another go at some point

I’m coming to the end of #Atomfall and I’m stumped as to what game I should move on to next 😬 my whole plan was playing some small games after Indiana Jones that progressively got larger with but I ended up spend twice as long in Atomfall and wrapping it up is going to leave a massive hole.

At the weekend we defeated a Dalek and saved the ship with 2 seconds to spare! Felt like a proper, tense episode of Doctor Who! #EscapeHunt
