Spider Man 2 for PS5. Real fun game. A great sequel with some great storytelling, though I’m not sure where we go from here. That is overall a great thing, though. I did think the last boss fight dragged on a bit long but I can also understand why. I may or may not go for all the trophies.

The story was awesome! I kinda wanted to see a couple more of the last bosses. Its a big spoiler so Ill leave it at that, but I was very surprised by the previous to last one, wouldve been cool to see the others. Wouldnt mind more boss fights overall, but that applies to most action games these days.
I also didnt go for the trophies. Barely even did any side stuff (except when on the way to a main) cause I know its where Insomniac always fails to keep things interesting.

More boss fights would’ve been great. I feel like they could’ve put one or two more in and spread out the last third or so a little more. I did all the side stuff I could, like the bases and crystals and stuff.
The only trophies I’m missing are the platinum, the one where I need to use Peter’s robot arms to beat enemies but I think I need to start over since I don’t see an option to go back to them, and the one where I have to glide from one side to the other only using the wings. Even watching the hint video on the gliding, it hasn’t worked out super well thus far.
Oh well, I guess we wait on DLC now.

Beat Undertale Yellow. It is short but enjoyable. It is free fan game and has a few returning characters who are revealed fairly early on but are very few in number. The gameplay is pretty much unchanged and puzzles are present as well. It is a decent experience if you go for a pacifist run. Given the ending though I am guessing nothing is canon. Didn't care for Avatar and will be waiting for Prince of Persia.

I finished the story in Need For Speed: Heat. That was shorter than I had expected, and I'm not going to bother going for collectibles and stuff, I'm done with it.

Cocoon: short and sweet with some fun puzzles dealing with recursion (not nearly to the extent of Patrick's Parabox...an excellent game you should play now) and an interesting atmosphere. Boss fights were a bit of an annoyance, but they went by fast enough. Didn't get the secret ending, but I didn't miss much.

Theseus on
This could have been such a good game if it had lasted longer and had more to it. I beat it in one sitting at almost exactly 90 minutes. I recall buying this after seeing a preview where someone said it looked like it'd be the closest to a God Of War VR game we'll probably get. Well after playing it myself, that was a terrible way to describe this game.
It does have a few tense moments where you're trying to hide from this Minotaur that is the size of King Kong, and a few sections where you have to fight against these gross spider creatures. But that's it. There's 3 or 4 sections where you fight those spiders, you don't even actually fight the Minotaur, you just pull 3 or 4 levers that lets light shine through and eventually defeats him. Roll credits, because that's all the game offers. It's just way too linear. This could have made a great tech demo if they had something bigger to lead up to, but that isn't the case, this is the finished product. The game wants you to beat it without dying, and I know that's possible because it wasn't too difficult at all, but I don't feel the need to play it again.

This is just one of those games that is so unremarkable that you struggle to come up with positive things to say about it. I still wasn't sure what they were going for with the story by the time I had reached the end.

Rogue64 (a C64 game via Evercade)
Not much to this one. It's a randomly generated very basic dungeon crawl. Kinda fun, although I discovered a bug that made the temporary strength potions permanent, and it was fairly easy.
Took maybe 45 minutes to an hour to get through

Sea of stars via Gamepass - 9/10
Sea of stars is a truly delightful game. Filled with delightful characters and an engaging plot line. Sea of stars is an Instant classic for sure. Really had a good time with this one. I think I finished just short of 24 hours. There is a post game… which I understand expands the story (I read about it, no spoilers) to which I think I will, at some point, complete just for the added narrative and “surprise” turn of events.
Great graphics. Great, fleshed out characters. Fun bosses. I should note that I played on easy and felt the pacing was just right. There’s exploration to find different upgrades but it never veers to far from the main quest so it’s fairly easy to clear a dungeon and move on. There are a couple narrative twists that keep things exciting and keep the player engaged. If I had any gripes I would say for me it was bit slow in the beginning and maybe a tad bit long in the tooth at the end but over all a gem of an adventure.

It really is. It’s worth playing the post game from what I understand.

Yup. It eludes to it after the credits role.

Alan Wake Remastered -

I bought a copy but it's also available on PS+ Plus. Never played the original release. Great presentation, atmosphere, score. Gameplay was okay, but fairly repetitive.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan
Free on PS+ Plus. Not much of a game at all. As the first release of the 4 anthologies, it’s definitely the weakest. Also the shortest from what I can tell.
Until Dawn and The Quarry are much more enjoyable. As are Little Hope and House of Ashes. I just have The Devil In Me left to play for what has been released by Supermassive Games so far.

Omori.
A Hat in Time.
I'm a good way through Omori, but stopped for some reason. Not sure why. I was enjoying it, and am curious about how the story develops.
I was playing A Hat in Time not too short ago, but then got stuck. Could not figure out what to do next. Haven't continued since. But I don't like to start another game without finishing a game I'm in middle of. That just adds to the backlog. If I'm not enjoying a game, then of course move on to another one. But I was enjoying a Hat in Time. I simply got stuck and couldn't continue. Maybe I'll look that part up.
Inscryption is a rogue style. So, I guess I can play that alongside another longer game. Not that rogues indicate that they won't take up a significant portion of your gaming time :D. When I was playing Slay the Spire, I would sometimes intend on playing a short run and then switching to the main game I was playing at the time. And that short run sometimes ended up turning into several hours. Same was with Hades.
I'd like to finish either Omori or A Hat in Time before taking on Sea of Stars.
