Aww, thank you!! ❤️ Yes, I've played Lies of P, Elden Ring, Bloodborne, and Demon's Souls. I haven't played any of the classic Dark Souls games or Sekiro. But I've played those and some other soulslike games. They're really fun, even though they're super frustrating...huge challenges to overcome! Thank you again!! Your husband must be really good, too, then, even if he's tossed his controller at times haha. Ah yes, I have that then! I love the God of War games. I played the original ones on...I forget which system now. Ps3? PS2? I don't know. But yeah. I've just played too many other gam

Lies of P was a HUGE challenge. I just finished it last night. My goodness, that last battle was a pain, but really fun to figure out, too. Oh that's awesome. I really enjoyed Persona 5! I didn't play Royale, just the normal version. Persona games are so much fun. Same with God of War. Is that the newest one? If so, I haven't played that yet, but I do have it. I don't tend to look ahead at games coming out, so I'm not sure! But I do have/own some games I'm looking forward to playing soon. Like Atelier Ryza 3 and the newest Assassin's Creed (I forget the name now lol). As you can see, I'

Life is Strange! Yes!! My mind totally blanked. Such a good series of games. All of them. What games are you playing right now? I am playing several...Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, Dragon's Dogma II, Yakuza Gaiden, and Lies of P. I play a variety of games...my favorite series though is the Atelier games. (Atelier Rorona, Ryza, Sophie, etc.) I wish you all the best here! ❤️
