Already finished this on Playstation but interested in getting it on GOG so i can mod it. Love the potential for NPC battles and custom vehicles in this SF sandbox. I do not need the online component, which is mostly races against other players or some weird heist challenges where some other player online comes into your game out of nowhere and kills you for money and prestige on leaderboards.
Maybe my favorite thing Ubisoft has ever made. I know Watch_Dogs 1 has its fans but I am absolutely not one of them. That being said, from the second I saw gameplay of this (and then played it at someones house) I knew it was overcompensating in the best way possible. One of the few open worlds I actually don't want to drive around in and instead stop and smell the (digital) roses on foot and filled with enough details and incentives like landmark photography for XP to make just that alone worthwhile; SongSneak is an idea Hideo Kojima would be proud of. I've spent hours just wandering about this version of San Fran and messing around with the NPC behavior, which has some ideas that predate Red Dead Redemption 2! When its time to get into the story, the arcadey mix of MGS and Deus Ex: Human Revolution is really something-- play this on hard or realistic if you can and try and keep things non-lethal (which means no melee, for some reason!) for the best experience. Turning the Ubisoft Stealth Game Experience(tm) into this brutal smash and grab does a lot to freshen it up. Unfortunately there is a risk this game could just rot and become unplayable. Besides just showing no further interest in the series, and the usual Denuvo shenenigans of releases from this era, this game is now experiencing severe issues on newer hardware, especially Nvidia. It was already not the most performant game in 2016 but not only has that not really improved, rendering is completely broken on newer RTX cards with no fix in sight. I hope this comes to the platform just for a shot at preserving one of the 8th gens best open worlds in the future.

Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book
Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious BookAtelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book is an upcoming Japanese role-playing video game. It is the 17th main game in the "Atelier" series. The game features a completely reformed world view from earlier titles within the series, in addition to a new alchemy-centric system. Sophie is able to obtain ideas for recipes from activities such as harvesting, exploring, battling, or from events, and these ideas are used as a basis of improving her knowledge of alchemy. When she performs alchemy, the player is presented with various predetermined shapes representing the ingredients used, and arranges each shape on a puzzle board that represents the cauldron. This process involves visual trial-and-error, and if the shapes are arranged perfectly, the player receives a bonus. The materials selected affect the quality of the item synthesized. This system is intended to offer a high degree of freedom based on the player's own play style.
