Heads up 10/10 = 1 so these reviews are pretty low.

I hope they've done enough to the Manhattan area to 'spice it up'. In the first game I never really got any incentive to explore it beyond the icons on the map/hud. When Tears of the Kingdom released I was also a bit disappointed with how much of the map stayed the same. Sure, they added a lot of new areas in that game, but in the end you still had to cover a lot of known ground.

Still, reviews are looking good and I'm excited to try it out;

Nice! I hope it won’t be long until a PC version arrives.

I believe two years is Sony's standard delay for PC releases.

I know what I'm doing this weekend

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I've got my Spider-Man 2 themed PS5 and a download code that I can't redeem until this Friday ready to play this weekend.... or next. I don't think I will be done with BG3 by Friday and I am loving it so I might wait until I'm done with my first playthrough before I hope into another game.

It's official, folks. Unfetter your hype and submit those pre-orders if you're inclined.

I have to say, I'm surprised they brought back the MJ missions. I'm trying to remember how much I enjoyed them on my first playthrough, but I can say in subequent ones I was desperate to move past them. Maybe they'll let you skip them in new game plus like they did for the science "puzzles" in the first game.

Edit: obligatory bring-back-original-peterface. I feel a twinge of bitterness every time I see peterface 2.0.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

There is no pre-order in this dojo

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Don't pre-order. Full stop.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

The MJ missions are still there but they’re slightly better. They don’t feel as “random” in terms of getting discovered.

I don’t get the Peterface thing. I think the updated face looks better but that’s just me.
