Must say i'm loving Assassin's Creed Odyssey a lot. Loving the gameplay and story. Level 37 and I think I'm 60ish % in the story. Cool stuff!

Did you pick Kassandra or Alexios? I was shocked when I read 2/3 picked Alexios. I'm really looking forward to the final DLC next month. I was lukewarm on the First Blade DLC but the Atlantis episodes have been really fun.
 
Technically I'm not playing it currently, since it's over, but I figured I'd post a pic or two from today's WoW Classic end-of-beta event:

Decided to start playing Assassin's Creed 3 Remastered on PS4 and just ordered Judgement ($39.99 on Amazon).
 
I am playing Super Mario Maker 2, story mode. Have not spent money on a Switch Online sub yet, so I can't play other people's creations right now. I will soon though!

I got AC3 for free with AC Odyssey, is it any good? I'm a bit reluctant, fearing the game didn't age well.

Had mixed feelings about it. Some people hated the first part of the game but I thought it was an interesting twist. I thought navigating through the trees and combat was a little clunky. It was an interesting change of pace for a theme/location.

I liked it when I had it on the PS3, I like it now. But I made the mistake of putting in Assassin's Creedy Odyssey two nights ago, looking for a little bit of a change from 1776 Boston. I can see how much better Odyssey is. Not to say that III is bad, but Odyssey is that much better.
 
Started playing AC Odyssey this past weekend. Really liking it so far. 1 hr sessions quickly turning into 3 hr gaming sessions. Then started to realize that it's starting to get a little grindy and I'm just at level 23 or so now. Found out that the level cap used to be 50, then 70 something, now it's apparently 99?

Also as a completist, I'm spending a ton of time running around trying to get 100%. Those stupid treasure boxes, burning boxes, etc is starting to get hard trying to find and wasting time. Playing with my phone next to me so I can look up walkthroughs is not how I would like to play.

Maybe I'll put it off to the side for a little bit and play Judgement that I bought on sale for $40.

I finished the main storyline. Once I finish the Atlantis DLC I've decided I'm going to finish the "tales of Greece" missions and then stop playing. It feels like I have a hundred side quests left (exaggerating) and I've done a lot.
 
I'm level 48 now, done 70ish % of the main story and loads of sidestuff and still loving it a lot. The trick is to switch around what you're doing. Main story, some grinding, upgrading the ship and taking out pirates, find the biggest fort and clean it out, etc.
 
Been playing the new Wolfenstein: Youngblood on the PS4, and it's not as fun as previous Wolfensteins. It also makes my PS4 rev like a jet engine. Going to dump it and get back to Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 on the Switch.
 
I have too many games, gave up on Days Gone as I found it boring, another generic PlayStation exclusive third person action game.. I think Horizon Zero Dawn is better.

Nearly finished Rage 2 story on my Xbox, on the last battle I think. But that game has never ending side missions..after I’ve finishes I’ll go back to my third I think play through if Gears 4, although I have a lot of games yet to play through on it, it’s currently my main console because of that.

Also playing the new Wolfenstein on my Switch.

I did play the server test for Gears Of War 5 multiplayer and had a lot of fun with it! I think that and the new COD will keep my online gaming fun going.

Bought Steamworld Quest on Switch recently, since it had the 20% off deal.
Not a huge fan of it tbh, which is disappointing after Steamworld Dig/Heist.

I've only just finished act 1 (of 4) but the battling is monotonous and the characters aren't as likable as previous efforts.
Think I should have picked up Slay the Spire instead of this.
 
I think I'm almost done with the Atlantis DLC in AC:Odyssey. Pretty stunning environments around Atlantis. It's going to be hard going back to regular old Greece to wrap up my final side quests.

Nice!

I'm only a couple of trophies away from the platinum one, need to pimp the ship (almost there) and have some underwater locations left that I can't find... after that I'm going to start with the DLC's. I'm currently lvl 62 :) Absolutely love this game. :)

That's amazing. I don't think I'm even in the neighborhood of platinum.
 
Getting close to finishing Pillars of Eternity on the Switch - wonderful port, if you are a Baldur’s Gate style game fan who has a Switch but not a game PC/Mac.

Today Torchlight II released for Switch - loved that game and all the ones before it, looking forward to romping through this on the Switch!
 
I finished the Atlantis DLC of AC:Odyssey. Amazing experience and easily the most enjoyable part of the game for me.
