I started, then bounced off Control back when the Ultimate Edition first went on sale.
At the time, I recall, there was a dire lack of save points in the game – which meant early on when I found a difficult room, I had to run down 8 hallways to get back to the death-room just to die all over again.
Maybe I was getting frustrated, or maybe I was just worse at gaming (probably both), but that experience was enough to send me looking for something else to play.
So after I finished Jedi Survivor I decided to forgo the enticing call of Diablo IV and head to The Oldest House instead.
Well, I love it.
It’s conceptually deep, with fun combat and a unique way of presenting the world. It’s probably my favourite game I’ve played this year so far.
Let’s see how it holds up.
