40K and sales....

Two Point Museum is the next iteration of the franchise. Which does look interesting. One of more interest to my wife (who is still going through Two Point Campus) than for me. GamesRadar had some interesting takes Two Point Museum is packed with customization, discovery, and playful charm!
Official Announcement Trailer:
 

 

Replaced got a 13-Minute Gameplay Overview via IGN, very interesting to see:

 
 
Breachway got a demo update... Full details here. It's made the game(demo) a more (imho) strategic turn based game than it was. It feels more turn based than quick click, at least to me. A harsher game because of it but in a good way. Graphics also to my eye have received a subtle cell shaded tweak..... I'm liking all I've seen so far.









This last week has seen me re-buy games I already have due to sales on different platforms as well as some more DLC. The games I already have are on PC and the sale was on Xbox. What did I pick up? The double pack of South Park games(the good ones), great games. As well as Star Trek Resurgence. It's a game I've mixed feelings on(at least second time round on pc, but on sale and on Xbox makes me think I'll enjoy it there more than 'again' on PC.... Yea it's a light excuse but I'm giving it a shot. 3 games for €24. Can't complain bout the prices...
 
On PC I picked up 2 of PowerWash Simulator's DLC's(Warhammer 40,000 Special Pack  &  Back to the Future Special Pack ); As well as Boltgun's DLC(Forges of Corruption Expansion). I guess I'd been in a 40k mood after watching Luetin09's latest video. 40K LEGENDS - LEMARTES GUARDIAN OF THE LOST | Warhammer 40,000 Lore History
 
 
Warhammer 40,000 Boltgun, Forges of Corruption, fun is fun.



 
  
 
 
 
 
PowerWash Simulator before the DLC was bought I completed the remaining extra jobs. Then went all in on the 40k jobs.
 

 
The 40K jobs work for me, great theming for the jobs. Can't complain.
 
 

 
 
 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Planet Crafter hasn't seen any co-op of note this last week. I'd noticed from the co-op map(not fully terraformed) a few other areas where there were still items I 'needed' to collect on my solo map. So I explored/collected them.

 
 
 
No Mans Sky, I actually logged in, checked out a few things on the station I was on, looked up some notes..... Bit by bit I'm sure I need to do a fresh start of the game..... I may come round eventually to actually do it.....



 
Star Trek Online is still my dual platform mmo. It's getting attention on both Xbox and PC. Xbox again with more time than on PC. Xbox characters are still getting finalized(no fush), reputation etc. Otherwise, events come and go on both and content is done. Rinse Repeat. I'm into it hence the game on two platforms. Fun in it's doing.
 

I've not gotten up to speed on some content regarding choosing some reward ships from the event/campaign rewards. CasualSAB has a comprehensive vid: Best Premium Ships from Event Campaign VI
 


Eve Online gameplay is as my usual PvE needs must. The game/launcher is really all over the place in regard to a lot of things. For me they are, login rewards both earned and 'free'(free is back) apparently. Software wise the client and launcher issues are an ongoing frustrating clusterfk. I'm not sure CCP knows what they want with 'rewards' or game tech(due to the FPS), nor how to get what they think they want etc.etc. All a bizarre guessing game. I'm as outside as I can be and I'm looking at it with questions. Do they not? They seem to double down and down and then double down again....  Free SP weekly in the in game store, free SP and isk with 'rewards' from in game activity; Daily login rewards gone then back but SKINr based(ignored by me). Eve seems more a test bed now than ever before. Nothing like a live service to gain instant user reaction and dev motivation to 'fix' things. More to come internal tested or not. They really do seem to throw it all at the wall and see what sticks. Like shíting all over the people who are your current customers..... I'll shut-up....
