Still Quiet on the gamefront

Well September is finally here and that means we'll finally see some new games releasing. Most would assume I'm talking Destiny, but they'd be wrong. Even through the depths of boredom I'm still not even considering it. Destiny is Bungie's folly, they followed down Borderlands trail far too closely. I can't not see it as Borderlands with much less charm. You could make the argument that it has PvP multiplayer but the problem is that isn't really balanced. Games like Call of duty, Battlefield, even Bungies own Halo show how to balance there games. A high level player should only have a skill advantage over lower level players, not a weapon or stat advantage.

But enough about my dislike of Destiny. My september month is looking like Naruto UNSR and LOTR Shadow of Mordor. I haven't missed a Naruto game this generation I don't plan to start now. As for Shadow of Mordor I'm still slightly skeptical  it looks pretty good but I can see how it could end up just being a generic action game too. I'm hoping for a Demo but it seems unlikely now. Oh right almost forgot Minecraft Xbox 1 is coming out soon too so I'll also be playing that.

As for what I've been up too in the meantime. I've been playing through the Mass effect trilogy again. I've made it through the first and have moved on to the second. I forgot how good the second game was. Still I have another playthough to go through after I finish the third I'm heading back to the first on Insanity. That'll be fun since the First is definitely the hardest of the 3.

Anyway that about sums up my plans and post too show I'm not dead.  To anyone who's given me a chance and read these thanks.
