Had a late night session yesterday so I managed to have a go on some GFN games that I don't usually play and I quickly reminded myself of all those little things that annoy me about Control.
Terrible, useless map.
Relentlessly respawning baddies.
Savepoints too far apart.
But I DID make some progress. Not as much as I wanted but... some.
I then had a little go on Watchdogs. Haven't played that for a long time and I have been thinking of installing it recently so I wanted to refresh my memory of the contols/gameplay.
Had fun breaking into a building and stealing some secrets from a laptop followed by a police chase. And then got hacked by some random multiplayer person.
So I had to ignore the story again to go off and track them down. Managed to stop the hack but couldn't kill them cos they were well hidden at the top of a tall building so I just kept shooting from a distance until the cops arrived to see what the hell was going on.
