Right now, I’m playing the early access version of Baldurs Gate 3. I’m getting ready to put it down (frustrated: BG3 has the potential to be good, but without controller support, I’m getting really frustrated with the UI. ) and switch to Yakuza Like a Dragon.

What are you playing now and what are you looking forward to playing next?

  • Three minutes into the game?

    If you’re dying very early on, keep an eye on how the weapon(s) you choose influence your play style, and don’t forget to select an “aspect” from the dude sitting under where you start right at the beginning. “Stomper” is my favorite because it makes your dive attack basically instakill any enemy in the first few levels.

    What I like to do is jump down through the first platform from where you start and walk right far enough to see what the random weapons are. If any of them are electricity, I’ll choose the “Superconductor” aspect. Otherwise, I pretty much always go “Stomper.”

    Serious players advise using jump more than roll, because roll has a cooldown period, but for me I think rolling is key and I roll all the time.
