What are we all playing this weekend?

Adam: I'm hoping to play Nioh on PC. I've already finished it on PS4 but haven't tried the DLC yet, and I want to see if the port is up to scratch. If so, it's likely to be one of my games of the year all over again.

Alec: Mostly I'll be continuing to very slowly crouch-sneak my way through Wolfenstein 2, and at my current rate I'll complete the game in Easter 2019. I also badly want to see the rest of gorgeous, nightmarish indie shooter Midnight Ultra, which was the clear highlight in this week's Unknown Pleasures.

Alice: Having heard about Brendan's weekend plans, I'll be lurking in cemeteries dressed as Bloodborne's bell-ringing woman. As I do most weekends, to be honest. I'll also find a good spot to watch the weekend explosions - and not just the red zone in Plunkbat! That's a joke. See? Because it's Bonfire Night, where fireworks are common, but also I play a lot of Plunkbat and it has lots of explosions too. Jokes.

Brendan: I'll be in Edinburgh, which is like a safe version of Bloodborne. Once there I'll be unable to perfect my Opus Magnum machines, and this is likely to cause me much distress. My tin-based stain remover won't manufacture itself!

Graham: I'm going to keep plugging away at Wolfenstein 2, though so far I'm not enjoying playing it very much. I am enjoying watching it; the cutscenes are thus far the best thing about it. But stealth seems horribly unforgiving, I seem to go from Fine to Dead in half a second during combat with no opportunity to recover, and I'm struggling to work out how the game wants me to play it. I'll put a couple more hours in and if I feel the same way divert to watching the cutscenes on YouTube or something.

John: I truly hope to play nothing else but Mario Odyssey and Metroid Samus Returns until my fingers wear down to nubs. And maybe finish Zelda: BOTW.

Sorry, what are these "Pee Sea Games" you keep talking about?

Katharine: I'll be visiting the big smoke for the Final Fantasy Distant Worlds concert this weekend, so fitting in any gaming time is looking harder than FFVIII's Omega Weapon. If I'm lucky, I might be able to squeeze in that last hour of Life is Strange: Before the Storm's second episode when I get home, but only if I manage to tear myself away from that 30th anniversary FF pop-up shop first.

Matt: I'm off visiting some friends in Lancaster this weekend, otherwise I'd keep chipping away at Assassin's Creed: Origins. There are lots of little touches that I like about the new Ass Creed, but overall I have to agree with John that it's nothing special. Instead, I'm excited to try out the new Jackbox Party Pack, as well as a couple of board games (Inis and Murder: Deception in Hong Kong) that I'll be lugging up with me.
