Doom and Darkest Dungeon. It's going to be a very gloomy Xmas unless I give in to getting Stardew Valley on XBO. Then it'll be all bright with butterflies.
Give in to the anime force.
Zombie Apocalypse!

Not really sure what it is about zombie genre that draws me in so much? It just does. I think it's the overwhelming feeling of near death at any moment that drives my interest, that false sense of security. Atmoshpere and sound design also add to immersion I guess.
Anyway, I DL the latest RE7 demo and it still feels too scary. I can't imagine VR, because RE in first person already gives me anxiety and it might be the first RE game I skip out on. They added new endings apparently. The Outlast 2 demo gave me a bit of anxiety as well. I guess playing late at night, in the dark with headphones on is not a good idea. My heart was racing too much. I had fun watching people play live on Twitch, so I might do that this time.
What I love about RE7 demo is that it does feel like a refreshing take on the series. I really enjoyed ZombiU for doing the walking sim with zombies and added a roguelike mechanic. This game gave me anxiety too, so I only played it a bit at a time. RE7 feels like a tradtional RE1 game where you have to investigate every corner of a room or backtrack to find clues and study them in order to make progress. It feels like old RE, but new. It's a house full of mysteries.
I've also been playing the official Walking Dead TV show game on ipad called No Man's Land. It is part tower defense w/ base building and also a top down strategy game, like a baby Fire Emblem or Xcom. The adventure states are very short, but they get very hectic right away because zombies spawn mid level or near the end, which maintains tension. Your characters also can be leveled up and have different weapon proficiencies which you can also level. It all works quite well and its a pretty good game despite it being on iPad. I recommend. Also, Daryl is a hero and he leads my parties with his ranged weapon. Very powerful!
I just downloaded Let It Die, which is an action game/roguelike with horror theme. Some are comparing it to Souls for some reason? Combat is a bit janky, but it's free to play on PS4 and has microtransactions. Lot of weapon loadouts and armor to try. Very grindy though. I'm still playing it.
PS
I also played a lot of Hatsune Miku on PS4. Whats happening to me? The anime force is too strong. Help!
Whatcha been playing Pixlbit?
