The last game you completed, and rating.

Space Marine 2 - 8/10

Took off a point for the campaign being a bit short and longevity not being great 'yet' but we might get some good new content. The combat feels really satisfying, and the campaign was really well put together and a lot of fun to play through. The PvP also feels good which surprised me, low TTK and pretty well balanced imo.
 
Aliens: Dark Descent - 9/10.

First game I have played 100% through the cloud.

Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader - 8/10. The dev. ran out of money about 2/4 of the way through. A shame but what is there is brill anyway.

The Plucky Squire 6.5/10
Looked forward to this one as it seemed to be doing something different and i liked the art style, The game mechanics are good just poorly implemented which involved a lot of mindless busy work which really let the game down.
 
High on Life 7/10
Was hilarious in the opening couple of hours but the dialogue quickly wore thin. And then we were subjected to far too much teen bonding dialogue with your sister and Gene.
Gunplay was not bad. Mobs were interesting with their goop armour.
Perf was abysmal, even on a 4090, and got worse the longer I played. Some serious memory leaks in this game
 
Tales from the Borderlands, got it free on Epic couple week ago, I've played most of the other Telltale games over the years with the exception of GOTG (you can't seem to get this legally anymore) and the New TOB , bit dated and framerate was all over the place but playable, writing is definitely aged from the time it was originally released (some jokes won't be able to be written now) however it was enjoyable throughout and made me look forward to playing the new one but sadly it's a new playable cast and will be skipping that one.

7 / 10.
 
SW Outlaws 8/10

I suspect if I wasn’t a SW fan then this would have come in at less than that, probably a 6.5/7 out of 10 instead.

However, it sucked me into the SW universe and made a nice change from playing a Jedi. May pop back into the game for the odd game of Sabaac but undecided on whether the upcoming DLC is going to be worth it or not. Will wait until others have played it first TBH, then decide.

On to Evil West next I think.
 
Borderlands 2 - 7/10.
Had some good fun playing this and the story was interesting enough. Playing BL3 at the same time so could see the difference in graphics but the story seemed far more interesting than BL3. The only downside was that during boss fights, you can always find niche spots where they cant attack you but you can still carry on attacking them making it slightly easier to get through. This was quite obvious at the last fight.

been wanting to revisit 2 I played 3 recently and tinas wonderlands loved 3 that I 100% all achievements
 
Deathloop.

The game is very intriguing at the start since you have no idea what's happening. But it slowly starts to make sense as you progress. It takes a while to do so but when it does it gets a lot more exciting and I kept wanting to find out more. The ending as somewhat sad/disappointing but I enjoyed the game and would recommend it readily.

8/10

I agree - it's been one of my favourite games and it has some replayability - but if I remember correctly it had some memory leak type performance issues and crashed a few times.

3 has some minor mechanics that make the game a bit more easier. For eg you dont have to pick up ammo or cash when you open loot boxes. In 2 you have to be standing at the right angle to ensure you can pick up the ammo. I found that annoying in 2 after playing 3 where everything is auto picked. I haven't yet played Tina's wonderland but might play the pre-sequel before that.

Baldur's Gate 3
10/10

My first CRPG and easily one of the best games I've ever played. Just pure gaming bliss from start to finish.

Only took me 140 hours :D

Underrated game imo. Has a pretty unique atmosphere and I found it really interesting to play. Tempted to do another play through at some point but got too many on the backlog.

Oh I know that feeling all too well! I've recently built a PC so been smashing through games on it. Finished AC Origins before Deathloop and now on to Phoneix Point which I'm still at the early stages of, but likewise I have an ever growing backlog :cry:
 
Red Dead 2
10/10

Late to the party with this one but really, what can I say that hasn't already been said about this game? Sublime attention to detail, stunning graphics/audio/music, incredible voice acting and a heart wrenching storyline. On top of all that, hundreds of hours of wild west sandbox gameplay outside of the main game.

What's next for crag, probably my favourite gaming category.

Divinity 2 original sin made by larian aswell and I personally preferred that to baldurs gate 3.
Baldurs gate 1 and 2 enhanced edition if you can look pass the dated graphics.
Rogue trader - Warhammer 40k
Pathfinder 1 and 2
There's loads more to pick from just look at reviews.

Funnily enough I was just thinking today about any other games in that genre which I could try out. It would have to be seriously good though after BG3 as it's a hard act to follow. It has opened up a whole new genre of games for me so will look into some of those you mentioned - thanks.

BTW I'm shocked that only 22.6% of BG3 players on Steam have the achievement showing that they have finished the game :eek:
