Computer games.

Ahah cool, I'll look into them

They're great as a party game as well, we've played it with up to 4 in a couch co-op, great fun.

In a 2player mode - A Way Out is a fantastic cinematic experience that is not too difficult to get into and play, but the real seller is the story behind it.

It Takes Two is very similar - it's literally from the same people, but this time they've upped the gameplay learning curve a slight bit (imo, but I do play a lot so YMMV), while still telling a fantastic story.

Played A Way Out with the gf, took us pretty much a full day to complete, but it was great fun!

Just seen the specs, I won't be able to play it on my current PC, gutted.

Don't you at least match the minimum? Or do you prefer a full experience of what it has to offer?

Even minimum is too much I have an I5 4570 3.2ghz and a GTX 1650, it says an I5 8400 and a 1060, my pc is only a refurbed upgraded office computer not really a gaming pc. I can play games like but newer ones are pushing it.

There seems to be a lot of speculation that they’ve given the specs for 1440p at 60fps, so hopefully that’ll be the case

Ooh yeah it'd be patchy at best on minimum, sadly. Hopefully you can get them upgraded!

FWIW game looks fantastic *so far*, but I don't believe the hype until I see it anymore tbh.

Even then it won't be that downgraded that much for it to run decently, I think.

I won't be able to play it (and don't have the time currently anyway), but hopefully the people that are really into it can and give feedback soon lol

Yeah, sadly I think that’s the case. I reckon the higher specs may partly be down to the rumoured scope of the game being absolutely insane.

I’ll be sure to feed back, been a massive fan of FromSoft since the original Demons Souls (loving FromSoft and supporting Everton, I’m concerned I may be a closet masochistlol)

Elden ring getting great reviews, i really want to like it but altho i loved the idea of dark souls i could not get along with doing the same boss over and over...

Have you played Shadow Of The Colossus?

One of my favourite games . I have never played dark souls but always understood it as being like a rock hard variation of SOTC which was an amazing game but not overly taxing from what I remember.

The reviews are very good but these type of games are tough.

I've still only beat 2 bosses on Returnal after months of having that which is a similar difficulty.

Yeah i was hoping it would be similar to skyrim with more forgiving combat but doesnt look like it

I still don't trust any review tbh.

Have a lot of friends/family that work in that industry and the amount of paid-for reviews is shocking lol

Let it come out and let average Joe review it, then we'll see what's real.

That said, it's a game by a developer doing what they do best, with an open world twist, so it should be very good, I hope.

I think it’s likely to be phenomenal in this case, FromSoft’s worst game by a distance is Dark Souls 2, and that was still a solid 8/10.

It seems they’re making Elden Ring a lot more accessible which is good though - hopefully it gets a larger audience, especially as if you get super stuck you can summon people to help you out

>FromSoft
>"if you get stuck"


You definitely will lol But yeah, hopefully it kicks off for them, it's a good move considering how current games are, so we'll see...
