What's the collective verdict on Clair Obscur and Hollow Night (the original)? I'm still engrossed in Blue Prince but suspect I'm getting close to getting just about everything done there and am ready to pivot.

Clair Obscur is one of the 5 best games I’ve ever played, and coming from someone who’s never loved turn-based games. It’s got a bit of everything.

They both seemed to be universally beloved. I'd go with the genre that strikes you fancy right now.

What I really want is a Blue Prince sequel but that'd have to be years off.

The trailer for the first post-Disco Elysium game from ZA/UM was included in the PS Direct yesterday. Already skeptical about it since so much of the creative team is gone, but it also just looks like a DE clone (and the world sounds different but just the same, too).

Xbox Rog Ally sold out. I'm one of the suckers who pre-ordered one (the more expensive one). Too expensive? Yes, but I'm excited.

I'm sure they start with low inventory to build the hype of a sellout but still interesting because it's pricey.

Sounds like there will be a lot of layoffs once the deal goes through.

I've assumed their sports games have all been made by AI in recent years, so not surprising to see they're headed that way.

You might but I hope you’re not looking forward to a woman piloting a spaceship.

Yes, including by me. But I still have hope (against my better judgment). I liked the new Dragon Age, FWIW

Maybe they'll sell it off. EA never understood what they had with Mass Effect.

That would be a dream scenario. It's been nothing but nothing but problems since EA bought them.
