    I was playing Wolfenstien II: The New Colossus until I got to the point where, after meeting the New York City resistance, I have to kill waves of NAZIS. I became increasingly frustrated with the aiming of the weapons and the bullet sponge nature of the enemies. Personally, I never understood why game developers give the player customization options for making their characters, then sabotage that effort by creating situations where the character finds himself or herself short. I was building a steatlh character. This battle highlights the weaknesses of the character. Furthermore, my reflexes are not like they were when I was younger. I was frustrated, feeling my anxiety increasing with each battle. It reached a tipping point and I had to quit the game.

    I have not finished a game in a long time. This seems to be the average for gamers today, many games are not finished.

    Right now I'm still only playing STO and Skyrim. Thinking about buying that LA Noir remaster though.

    Finished Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, and I liked it much better than the main sequel. Felt the setup was much better, the gameplay more fun. Moving on to Revelations now, and I see there's quite a jump in graphical quality. Quite a beautiful game, and this is on PS3. It's among the best looking AC games, in my opinion. Interesting thing is, characters themselves seem to have gotten updated character models and they look a bit more realistic.

    I got and started LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Wednesday, and so far it's just as good as the first one. My only very minor complaint is that I found a character list on IGN's wiki guide and there don't appear to be any FF or X-Men characters. I know there's still plenty of great characters that aren't part of either group, but after not getting them in the Avengers game I was hoping they'd be back for this one.

    Skyrim again, after a long while. Might go for a completionist playthrough (as many questlines and major missions as possible, all shouts, etc.)

    Abandoned STO after making it to lvl 10-15 with the two major factions. Space combat is ok, but I find the stories and dialogue rather boring, and most of all ground combat is horribly broken. That feels like an early alpha build of a 90s game. I'm just not enjoying it much.

    I just beat COD WW2. I only play campaign. I've now moved onto Assassins Creed. And I was thinking about replaying witcher 2 soon.

    Is anybody else playing LEGO Marvel 2, and if so has it not loaded thing you needed to keep going? Twice now I've had to restart after something I need to continue didn't load right. First I threw a lever and the door never opened, and the second time a target I needed to shoot never loaded. Other than those two incidents I'm loving it, it's one of the best LEGO games so far.

    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided digital deluxe edition for the Xbox One. Heard bad things about it when it was originally released, but I am really liking it.

    I told my girlfriend I wouldn't buy anything else before Christmas, so I'm replaying South Park: The Stick of Truth and still working on Super Mario Odyssey. I am tempted to sneak out and buy L.A. Noire for my PS4 Pro to see what it looks like in 4K though :)

    Assasins creed Unity, and i have to say, what a amazing looking game, Paris is indeed like a work of art in the game, 17th century France has never looked so revolting. ;)

    From hence forward, i wish to be known as Count da Money. :p

    GTA V and The Sims 3: Late Night/Seasons. (Late Night is the most recent expansion I installed, but Seasons was released later so it still launches from that disk.)

    The wife picked up her ongoing Fallout 4 playthrough, she just hit level 50. My own playthrough pales in comparison, I'm at a measly level 30-something I think.

    My wife has gotten about three hundred hours worth of gameplay in Fallout 4. She loves the game.
