I see Assassins Creed Valhalla is being revealed tomorrow.

I do love a bit of vikings

Finished Divinity: Original Sin 2 (very good though not as amazing as reviews will have you believe. Combat can be a bit annoying and lore-breaking, with some fights requiring pre-knowledge of how to set the battlefield to be winnable) and now starting the original Halo as part of the Master Chief Collection. Never got round to Dark Souls so might give that a go next.

Lockdown has prompted a full PC overhaul so got a new Mobo, CPU, GPU, RAM on the way. Thank god for credit cards...

I bought the Greek one and never played it.

What did you go for? I built this one I'm running on in late 2014.

I upgraded the GPU to a 1070 last year and have had no issues with anything but I'm expecting something to go bang at some point!

They are a bit like once you've played one you've played them all.

Hitman first season is free on PSN, have set up remote play on my gaming PC so hopefully play a bit more now.

I don’t buy every single one, enjoyed the Egypt one so thought I’d give it a go. Didn’t get past the first few missions due to the ridiculously long and frequent loading times. I play on a PS4 Pro but they were still ridiculous!

A series I neveer played and got into, but always tempted to

Think I played a demo once, remember a scene on a cruise ship, sneaking in fron off the boat, infiltrating a party etc from memory, always fancied it but just never got into the series, maybe time for a rehtink although I've just got the XCOM2 add-on and the new Chrimera XCOM and those games you never race through...

Is it the one where you have a pet Eagle or something that you can use to zoom in on target's? I think I had that as well and gave up after about an hour.

I've only ever played it briefly, but like you always fancied giving it a go. Will report back.

Mobo - MSI B450 Tomahawk MAX
CPU - AMD RYzen 5 3600
RAM -16GB of 3200mhz from corsair
GPU - ummed and aahed as prices are insane right now. Was gonna go for a 2nd hand RX 390 but got a b-grade (damaged box, return etc) Vega 64 for £250 which I thought was a good deal. 

Fancy XCOM 2 as I completed the previous one but I remember it being immenseley frustrating and frequently missing 90% chance shots. 

Only played the first Assassin's Creed as they just seem to be stretching the story way beyond making any sense and just releasing the same game set in different locations.
