He's a blonde knight named Link. This is a much more mature Zelda adventure for him.

Much more. I restarted the game and went with the Royalty class. Decided to be a magic wielder from the start.

Cool. I love the array of options and weapon variety. I imagine this is going to have a lot of replay value for me.

I had seriously scary nightmares last night thanks to Demon’s Souls. It is really getting to me.

I went with the Knight class...not sure if I made the right move but truthfully I'm so bad at this game that it probably wouldn't make much difference either way.

I’m bad too. You just have to stick with it and you’ll figure it out eventually and it’s rewarding when you do.

Just beat spider first try boo ya

Seriously? Nice work.

Yeah. Thanks

That 2nd preview video tipped me off on how to handle a couple of his attacks. Also I was probably more upgraded than you. I spent a fair share of time doing that.

Fair, fair. I beat it last night on my first try as a Royalty build. On to 3-1.

Good job. Hours in, I had to google how to even upgrade stats. This game doesn't tell you anything, or when it does it is very vague. I think I will start using the hint cards. Got stuck in tunnel maze for a while after spider and saw there was a hint card for that right before bed.

Did you move on to 3-1 before advancing after spider in 2?

Yes, a good friend of mine told me to rotate between each archstone in a clockwise manner after beating a boss.

Ahh OK that makes sense. Thanks for tip. I don't mind takings hints with this game, especially cause learning the hard way doesn't necessarily benefit at all and can waste a lot of time. I wasted too much time without upgrading stats.

Miles Morales is a blast, can't believe I waited this long to fire it up. The soundtrack is a bit annoying but that's be because I'm an old fart and the actor voicing Miles is also grating at times, but god damn the game looks fantastic and action/frame rate is top notch. The PS5 sounds like it's barely breathing running the game on performance mode. Had a blast playing last night and can't wait to fire it up again. All this Souls talk makes me want to jump back to that though.

I’m enjoying it too. It’s the buggiest game I’ve played in a long while. Crashes, instances where I need to manually restart a mission because i’m stuck on an NPC, loss of Miles’ audio track. I remember no issues with Spider-Man OG.

Starting to get the rhythm of Demon's Souls.

Haven't encountered anything like that but have only put in a few hours, but read about a bunch of issues with both Miles Morales and the OG Remastered version. I saw a few patches download lately that will hopefully resolve the OG PS4 to PS5 saving issues.

Also I admittedly wasn't that excited about Cyberpunk but after seeing it run on what I assume to be a higher end PC (via the new gameplay trailer), it looks pretty f'ing impressive. Anxious to try it out on the PS5, though I know the next-gen 'enhanced' version isn't coming until sometime in 2021 (as a free upgrade).

Four bosses into Demon's Souls. Found a great spot to farm some health.
