PC Gaming – Update!

I’ve been slacking on updates. Mostly because I am still playing Project: Gorgon and not much else. There are a couple exciting upcoming games to keep your eyes on:

Anthem – This is a Destiny-esque Action RPG multiplayer shooter with exo suits, jet packs, and fancy future weapons from Bioware. You’ll find it on Origin. There is a VIP Demo on January 25nd with a release date of February 22nd. Check out the trailer: https://youtu.be/yJo19lIZWJY

The Division 2 – Also an Action RPG multiplayer shooter, but this one is third person and has modern day type weapons. This game is developed by Massive Entertainment and can be found on Uplay. Beta opens in early February with a release date of March 15. Check out the trailer: https://youtu.be/ktNvh63KkQQ

Other News – In case you haven’t heard, Atlas was a bust, and it looks like the Artifact player base is severely dwindling as well.

I’ve installed three games lately that I intend to dabble in once my Project: Gorgon addiction dies down: Subnautica (was free on Epic), They Are Billions (currently included in Origin Premium), and Borderlands The Pre-Sequel (dirt cheap during the winter Steam sale). Looking forward to trying them out and getting some reviews up!

Happy Atlas Day!

Today Atlas launches into early access on Steam. I love days like today. Reddit has so much hype for a game that no one really knows about, or has seen any real gameplay footage. All we know is that it is a Pirate themed MMO from the makers of Ark: Survival Evolved. There are talks of servers handling 40,000 players, as well as privately hosted servers. I never tried Ark primarily because it launched a DLC while still in early access. That just feels wrong. But Ark is still within the top 15 games played on Steam right now so they must be doing something right. I may give it a try if it has favorable initial reviews, but my mouse will be hovering over the refund button the entire time.

Here is the countdown timer in case you are interested: https://www.playatlas.com/

Atlas PC Gaming Early Access Release December 19th

Edit: Delayed until December 21st 😦
