Dad vs Videogames 🎮

It's been awhile since I've written gamelogs on this blog. I've been too busy playing and just do not have enough time to blog. Still I wanted to put out an update, if only to prevent me from falling further behind on my backlog of gamelogs to post. I'm going to do it a bit differently this time. Instead of the usual one post per gamelog format, I'm going to bundle them together in this one big post. I'll add some quick links below so you can get to the game you're interested in.

But first, some random thoughts on videogames at the moment.

It feels pretty good to be an Xbox Gamepass subscriber right now. Not only did The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Remaster become available to play right after Bethesda shadow dropped the game, but Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was available on Gamepass one day after. I know everyone is talking about the Oblivion Remaster, but I will argue that Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the game to play.

Also Path of Exile 2 is a great game! I did not include gamelogs for it in this post, but will do so in my next post.

Also my brother let me borrow his unused Playstation 4. I finally got to play Gran Turismo 7 for the first time ever and oh man I've missed the feel of Gran Turismo games.

I previously decided to move my Game Screenshots series to my micro journal. That didn't really work out for me as I have since let my micro.blog subscription expire. So, the series is back on this site. And since I've been playing some Guild Wars 2 lately, I'm starting it off with a new post about Guild Wars 2.

Human Guardian with the Luminous Heavy Armor set This is my Human Guardian. He is the character I use the most in the game. In this screenshot, he is wearing the Luminous Heavy Armor set. You can only get this armor set on your sixth year anniversary of owning the game. I've been playing Guild Wars 2 on and off since 2012. Me and my wife were actually beta testers for the game. This is still the only MMORPG that I will go back to time and time again.
