Valhalla didn’t gel with me for some reason after awhile, maybe it was the itemization.
I can’t say I’ve been following Shadows but I have heard about the twin protag thing and I’m not really sure I’m so keen on it being a dual protag game.
I’ve got Xenoblade Chronicles X today to pick up, I think Shadows can wait for a discount or something.
I’m actually looking forward to the dual protagonist thing. Syndicate was fine with it, but the characters were too close to each other. This one offers two very different gameplay styles.
From what I’ve seen combat is better then before and actually requires a bit of skill. They seem to have taken cues from Ghost of Tsushima.
In any case, got nothing else to play at the moment, so this should do me nicely. I’m off work next week, so can fully immerse myself in it.
Apparently there’s going to be a day 1 patch due to complaints about shrines and temples.
"The day one patch will make tables and shelving located in in-game shrines indestructible and will reduce non-essential depictions of bloodshed taking place in shrines and temples. In addition, when attacking unarmed NPCs, there will no longer be depictions of blood. "

I’ll keep my eye out on Shadows as I do love the Japanese setting. I’m hoping we’ll see Ghosts of Yotei later this year somewhere.
Let me know how Shadows go after you’ve had a good play session or two out of it.
Will do. I’ll probably post my feelings and experiences later today, or tomorrow.
GOY is my most anticipated game this year (I’m pretty certain it’s a 2025 release).
Hoping AC is big and decent enough to hold me over until the official announcement for the other one.
Well that didn’t take long to escalate.

Hahahaha…Haven’t got that far in yet. Working my way through the intro and keep getting interrupted.
