Just finished the main story on God of War. A+. Not sure what I'm gonna play next. I've got a ton of options.

Did you fight the Valkyries? That's not the main story, but it's probably the most challenging quest in the game.

Not yet. I tried once earlier on and got absolutely destroyed. Might go back now and try again with better stats, armor, etc.

The final one is, by far, the toughest boss in the game. IIRC, you can't max out your weapons without defeating them. The last one might be excluded on that, it's been a while since I played it. I got so many games that I rarely have time to play the ones I like twice.

Yeah, that's kind of where I'm at. Tons more stuff to do in GoW, but I have a huge backlog of stuff to play. I might revisit Horizon Zero Dawn. Got maybe halfway through that and stopped playing games for like a year because no time.

I haven't played that yet. I haven't played The Witcher 3 either. I've been doing my best to avoid open world games. And there's more coming out. It sucks being an adult and not having time for games lol.

Lol. I definitely get it. I've had Witcher 3 for well over a year. Still wrapped in plastic.

I always install the game when I get it. Saves me time when I actually want to play.

I didn't have an external for the longest time. So I was always trying to save space. I have a whole stack of stuff I've been meaning to install, just haven't got around to it yet.

Same here, except I starting playing when I got it and just couldn't get pulled in by it. I didn't like the combat system and the story wasn't so great either. I didn't give it a real long try though. Having fun in RDR 2 story mode for now.

I just beat my first Valkyrie. She was in the area where you get a piece of the chisel that opens up the magic doors. She’s harder than any boss that I’ve fought so far

It gets much, much, much harder.

Same. I hope I can transfer this 8TB to the PS5 when it comes out.

PS4 peeps on CCS, help me pick my next game. I have limited time, so I want whatever I play next to be a good one. I own all of these and have either not played / or barely played:

- Bloodbourne
- Wicher 3
- Horizon Zero Dawn
- Spiderman
- Metal Gear V
- Bioshock Collection
- Numerous Assassins Creed Games
- Resident Evil 7 (have PSVR)
- Arkham Night
(also a bunch of other stuff, but these are what I narrowed down the "next up" list down to)

Right now I'm leaning towards Horizon Zero Dawn or Bloodbourne.

I beat god of war by accident not finishing all the side missions. So I’m either going to go through it and finish the side stuff or Witcher 3 since I finished the books. Might look up Witcher one and two YouTube videos to catch the story before starting 3
Are these like your kids games that you’re getting into or you just buy and never get a chance to get into them lol

Lol, I have all those and also haven't played them. Except Arkham knight. That was the reason I bought a ps4. It was solid. Not as good as Arkham city though.
