Damn. This looks good.

Nice to see all these. I always worry games in this genre are fading away, even though I seldom have time to play them.

Damn. This looks good.

I know, right? This overview got me hyped. It appears they are making AC more and more like a witcher game while adding their own spin.

I'm currently playing through the AC:O DLC and it's good.

Who else watched the E3 stuff so far?

I'm in on The Division 2, Cyberpunk, Battlefield V, Forza Horizons 4, and maybe Just Cause 4.

I'm in on TLOU 2

Last year I played the remastered version of The Last of Us and it was magnificent. From a story telling perspective, it's a new benchmark for the medium.

Dat ending

I'd be way into that if they flipped the script and the player was the shark taking out South Florida. Extra credit if the ending is destruction of a golf resort run by an orange demagogue.

Judging from the trailer I believe the player is the shark.

Players can control a giant shark that wreaks havoc underwater, on the coast, on docks — just about everywhere. Hunt humans, other fish and animals, and become the ultimate predator.

An official description of Maneater reads:

Maneater is a Single-Player Action RPG, set in the unforgiving waters of the Gulf Coast. Fight to survive in the open ocean, with danger lurking at every depth. Your only tools are your wits, your jaws, and an uncanny ability to evolve as you feed. Anything and everything is on the menu... kill or be killed.

I've been playing a lot of MLB 9 Innings '18 on my phone the past few days and thank the lord you can turn off the chat so you don't have to see it. As soon as I started the game it was just a constant stream of ignorance that made me want to track down whoever was saying this stuff and punch them. Somebody seriously goes by 'Blackpeoplesteal' on there and was spouting some terrible garbage. Creeps are constantly trying to convince whoever they think is a girl to meet them or send them pics. The public chat on any game is just unbelievable these days. Much more enjoyable game since I turned that chat off. I should have been going through and reporting them but I think you need to take a screenshot for the report and I don't even have a clue how to do that on my phone these days.
