What we've been playing - we've made a change but don't panic


What have you been playing this week?

I appreciate I'm an outlier here, but I adore Dark Souls 2, warts and all; its sheer ambition, its idiosyncratic invention, and, yes, an atmosphere so overwhelmingly forlorn it practically seeps into your bones. The Otherworld stuff is definitely on the weaker side of the Silent Hill spectrum though, demonstrated in both its repetitive level design and the fact the game is full of bizarre stock sound effects that really don't fit the atmosphere. Alongside this I'm still chipping away at Pokémon TCG Pocket, and a couple of very, very good things that are under embargo, oooohhhhhh(sorry I realise that's actually really annoying to do that and not say what it is, promise I won't make it a habit).
