Absolutely, I didn't mind his jump and hover mechanics in the game but in the training missions they feel somewhat not built for the precision you're asked for. And yes, the Grip Gun needed more ammo…or maybe the rifle did which in my opinion kinda sucked, good job the other guns can just chunk everything.

Some of those training stages are harder than the actual game 😅

Pragmata
Enjoyed that lot, largely thanks to it's short runtime and the fact that it knows what it is and it just sticks to it, being a third person shooter with a fun gimmick, never felt like it padded itself out to try and sell me on the bond between Hugh and Diana or even it's own story, which is about as simple as it gets. So if you don't like the gameplay, you won't like the game because the combat is pretty much ALL there is to the game, with some minor exploration of the linear levels for Stuff, and I don't have a problem with that.

So I don't think it's perfect but I don't really have anything negative to say about this because there isn't a lot to the game to even bring up., it's a bit easy but I still thought combat got pretty engaging pretty quickly. I've unlocked a harder difficulty too but I won't be diving in straight away, but it is there albeit you have to play the whole game just to have it. I think the only real thing I can think of is that it's a fun game but it's not…Vanquish levels of good, which might still be my favourite third person shooter (that happens to based on robots), it has a fun gimmick in the hacking but it's not mind blowing or anything, so not GOTY worthy in itself but still a great time overall.

Been putting off Alien Isolation for a while even though I think it looks and sounds great, heard it's way too long though. Will play it next Halloween I think.

New Final Fantasy expansion announced: Evercold

I was super hyped during the launch of Dawntrail, but got burned out by trying to savage raid, and it made me burn out week in and week out banging my head against the wall of each fight with randoms. Sadly, with no raiding on the table I lost my buzz for the expansion a little, especially when the Main Quest was a complete wet fart. I do think that people saying the health of the game is really good and the raids were good in an actual static are good for the game though so I even if I wasn't playing as much, I don't hate the game.

They announced some big changes that probably won't matter much to people here, but we can now sync Item Level of gear on our lowest jobs to our highest jobs somehow, they've not made two seperate gameplay styles for jobs and they're adding a new way to do things to make it less of a daily grind and more of a weekly grind with a definitely not a battle pass like system, and I'm all for that because I love XIV but logging in after work to do mandatory roulettes was soul crushing after all these years.

And they announced the new 24 man raid it's errrrrrrrrrrrr Neon Genesis Evangelion. O_o

And the free trial now includes Shadowbringers, the expansion that probably solidified the game as my favourite FF in the series. If anyone wants to experiencethis, let me know as I'm going to try catch up at some point on the current expac stuff.
