Someone mentioned Ball x Pit. I gave it a try and wasn't really hooked. I heard a podcast give some tips about it and I'll probably give it another go.

Agreed. Most games - at least ones with realistic-looking worlds - I don't like when the brightness is all maxed out with Game Mode on my TV, makes it look fake. But Yotei doesn't go for realism; it's like a beautiful, moving painting. I crank up all the visual settings, to enjoy it in its' full visual glory.

I like the ball and pit part, but I could see the city builder part being annoying to me. In a rogue like I want my progression to be based on how I did in my run, not also how I do in some other part of the game where if I don't lay my buildings out optimally then my progression is slowed down making it feel more like a grind.

YYeah I don't get that part.

I have tried several times and just don't get sucked in. I am currently playing my 323rd play through of GTA V, LOL. I'd really like to get into Cyberpunk....

Anyone try ARC Raiders? It is reviewing extremely well for an extraction shooter, 87 on metacritic. I might give it a go this weekend.
