I have New Order and Old Blood, should I play Old Blood first? I know it's DLC but I've read it's a prequel and not as good as the base game, so I figure if I play it first I won't be disappointed by it.

no. play oldblood if you want more wolfenstein after beating the good game.

first off, theres no reason to feel like you need to have mastered the wolfenstein corpus. feel free to skip things, bj will still be killing nazis when you get back.

second, the main game builds your expectations for stuff with excellent pacing. if you start playing the game knowing what a huge complicated level full of guys is like when hunting commanders to stealth kill, you'll ruin the beginning of the game when its trying to teach you.

i cooled off with Nex Machina which seems awesome. I 1CC'd Rookie and am eager to try the harder modes.

Its amazeballs. Rookie has 2 fewer worlds than normal and they are too good to miss.

The last time I tried to talk poo poo about the FF7 remake, someone jumped down my throat for not being up to speed on all the cool stuff they were doing with it.

Since then, I saw my roommate play FF15, and I'm not convinced that splitting FF7 into 3 games as lovely as FF15 and releasing one per decade starting in 2020 is gonna somehow be awesome.

Second paragraph is my thoughts

I got to world 4 and died QQ. I think arcade mode is just a teensy bit too long, especially if theres a full two worlds after 5 that I havent seen yet.

Dude i lost on verteran to the supreme ai final boss. Lost all my powerups. Then He took 36 continues from me and i lost at the wire on the last life. Game over. He is so hard i basically has to scrub a whole continue if i didnt get the right subweapon.

I said gently caress this is too hard. I juump into rookie and get ending credits after 1cc'ing like 4 worlds. No supreme ai fight in rookie...

I was so mad. Supreme ai is my bitch now. Never playing on a harder difficulty though.

The southpark game had good use of buffs and also an active combat system. I dont think i can sit through any more south park content personally even though all reports are that the grid combat system is done amazingly well.
