Has anyone played these? They are old school side scrolling games but with awesome graphics (think Abes Odyssey) but I just love the art style... All on switch as well and as they are oldish now are reasonably priced.

I didn't like Bramble.

I did like Limbo, Inside, and the first Little Nightmares though.

Cheers. I will look in to those too.

Beyond Good And Evil 20th Anniversary is out today - surprisingly only £18.

I am already downloading it. The original was one of my favourite games of all time, and it looks like they've just updated the graphics and controls which were the two things that had started to feel clunky. And then carried on feeling clunkier and clunkier.

I just came across this vide on Elden Ring....it broke my brain....jumping?! JUMPING?!

Also, strong armour and heavy Shield, just block is much easier than trying to time your rolls.  Rolling is the hardest of all the mechanics!

@RaymondLin thanks for that video (i have been trying to roll again when fighting enemies) but never been able to get timing right when facing a big enemy etc. am def going to try the jumping from now on.

it really sucks as l really want to explore the game as it is amazing but my crapness at playing has always been my achillies heel. and i just gave up the first time. 

have you played the dlc yet and if so what do you think of it?

I haven't picked it up since last year and not beat the required bosses to access the DLC so not bought it.  I have a Mage build which I think I will need to re-spec now even though I made it super OP, it doesn't look like it will work for the DLC being a glass cannon.  

Watch this video too....."Our problem is dodging, so we removed the need for it."
