<16> Untitled Goose Game (Xbox)

Bloody Dude Perfect played it on YouTube so now we have to...
That's not a bad thing, it is great.
It was on game pass until about 2 weeks ago
<7.55> Sea of Thieves plunder pass.
<35.99> Immortals Fenyx Rising - PS4 Pro digital purchase from the PS Store. It's on sale which is why I didn't get it on XB1X as it's still £60 on the MS store. By all accounts the versions are identical anyway.
<15.50> Dyson Sphere Program (Steam)
<15.50> Valheim (Steam)
<6.99> The Witcher 3 - Wild Hunt GOTY (Steam)
<15.49> Valheim (Steam)

You seem to have posted in the Hades topic.


I have now reached the epilogue.

Took quite a long time, that.

Glorious, isn't it? I'm still gunning for a sub 10.
I want to get all the heirlooms, but that will take a while...

It is rather good, yes. I'm probably nearing the end of wanting to play it though. Nothing new, and much of the pacts just make it a bit less fun.

Think I've got that one sorted...

How many runs have you done to get to that point?
I think it's about 100.i can check later.
Cool, i'm at 60, so a fair way to go!
Yeah, 114, although I reached that probably about 10 escape attempts ago.
And some stats, for Stats sake.

First time passed first world... Game 5.
First time died in 2nd world.game 16
First time passed world 3... Game 23
First time to final boss... Game 25
First victory... Game 39 (4thv time to final boss)
(Although I deliberately died about 5 times in this period. )
Further victory's 43,44,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53...etc

Judging by the content on game 103 "the big five oh”, I'm guessing that was my fiftieth victory.
What's your fastest time?
Not too quick. 18:17, but I've never been the speedrunning sort. Don't like to feel rushed (Times with the non fists weapons are around the 30 minute mark).

I have, however, managed...

It's a bloody joy. Delightful viking craft-em-up with survival aspects and happy bees. It's by no means easy, but at the same time goes out of its way to not punish you much compared to a lot of survival type games. Friends improve the experience. I had a longboat race with krazywookie and sadly he cheated by being better at sailing a boat than I.
All you need to know about Valheim is that it has interesting (read: hilarious) tree physics when you chop down trees.

Case in point.

I've seen enough "cutting down a tree goes terribly wrong" videos on youtube to not be surprised by anything! :D

I love vikings, craft, survival and bees so this does sound ideal. It's a Unity game, so hopefully a Mac version won't be too tricky for them to make.
If it’s an Intel Mac you could create a Bootcamp partition and install Windows there. It’s what I did back when I had a Mac as my only machine. Amusingly games would run better on that than natively in OSX anyway.

It is - even if your going digital which is often much more for switch unless its both variants of Pokemon Sword , and possibly some DLC add ons for BOTW ?

Or if its including the switch itself and it was 2nd hand (in which case that's a bargain!)

BTW if anyone is going digital with first party titles this does sound really expensive but

You can buy two digital vouchers from Nintendo which can be used for just about any first party title for £84
