Handed the wife the phone and told her to read the thread chain till the end and click the "GIF". She laughed, big fan of Pokemon. She's playing Pokemon Legends Arceus.

Hahaha! What does she think of the game? I used to love the Pokémon games, red/blue/gold/silver were my shit, the last game I actually liked was black and white tho.. it feels like a completely different game now..

She loves it. We hadn't played any of the other games though except the mobile app.

I'm glad she's enjoying it and you guys are having fun! Tbh, I miss how pkmn was as a game before the Pokémon Go era.. like if you just look up black and white 1 & 2, it has a pretty deep story even adults would enjoy on a philosophical level.

Ngl tho, if they wanna go in this direction, Arceus looks like a step in the right direction. I haven't rly looked into it since launch trailers tbh (I rly don't play games like I used to anymore for some reason lol), but it seems a lot of people are enjoying it and a lot has been fixed since their last few releases.. maybe ima try it!

Thank you and her for making me look into it, deadass I didn't even realize it came out like a week ago until I saw your comment lol, so thank you!

Not sure if you like the franchise, but we're both looking forward to Horizon Forbidden West, although I'm a little concerned if it's going to suck on a PS4.

I'm an hour in, can't say how I feel about it yet!! Lots of hand holding and explaining in the beginning, geese! This is what I don't like about the new Pokémon games. The mechanics are kind of cool so far tho. I just miss new starters and pkmn. That was always part of the fun, I'd avoid spoilers like the plague. I wanted to pick Cyndaquil so bad as a starter lol, went for Russet cuz he's a white owl and I never use grass starters.

Ty and your wife for reminding me and the recommendation! Also, ima check HFW out, never heard of it.

I was never a PlayStation person, but found some of my favorite games like Detroit become human on ps... do you have any recommendations if you wouldn't mind sharing them with me (or maybe your wife if you guys don't mind?), I really like choice-based games. Where there's multiple endings and there's consequences for your actions. Haven't been able to find a good one of those in a while.

In middle school and then hs oblivion/Skyrim/Fallout, as well as the fable series, were my favorite games.

Thanks again for the recommendation, to both of you!

I'll have to think about it. That seems rare in games these days.
