Hello everyone. Hope you all had a good week and relaxing weekend. I have been traveling all week so the only gaming I’ve been doing it playing Balatro on my phone. Have a great week
Playing the new God of Weapons DLC and going through Blue Prince with my SO.
If you like cryptic puzzles and games that encourage you to take notes and follow multiple plot/puzzle threads at the same time, Blue Prince is like the best thing that exists.
Nier Automata
Never played it before, went in blind. Love it.
Been grabbing a bunch of psx games from the internet archive and playing them on my ps1 today.
So far I’ve played: A bug’s life, Intelligent Qube, Resident Evil 2, Silent Hill, and I downloaded Gran Turismo 2 but I wanna finish with the first one before I play it.
Styx: Master of Shadows, even though I suck at stealth games. I have like 20+ hours in this game and I just started level 2. I’ve also been enjoying Showgunners and I’m back on my WWE 2K universe mode alt-history bullshit.
As for my weekly WFRP group: The players salvaged a boat a while back and only just got around to using it for business. They also sunk all their money into a single barrel of crude oil. Today’s adventure is finishing clearing the mines they got to last week.
Pokemon Go. Now that I’m biking I can cover ground and tackle park routes. I don’t have to deal with that 12:59 pm "your Pokemon is knocked out and you have your max coins for the day.
More CK2 with my Indo-Norse achievement omnibus run. Already got 3 of the 5 I’m shooting for but the last two are the most difficult. Also thought I was hot shit with 35k troops kicking around India and Tibet, then one of the turkic conquerors appears with 65k! I think I’ll be okay since supply limit will force them into smaller, more manageable stacks but still quite the shock
Yeah turns out they were chumps. Only slightly challenging due to three simultaneous peasant/religious revolts at the same time
Me and my best mate finally hopped onto darktide after a few years of vermintide 2. Seems like the game’s in a good place now, as I mostly find complaints about old systems when instead of the info I want about the current systems when Im trying to look stuff up.
Anyway, the ogryn with the grenade launcher gauntlet has me absolutely hooked, because the size of the character and weapon make it feel like you’re playing scorch from Titanfall 2. I miss my big thermite boy so much.
The last game I started playing was Breath of the Wild on my PC. Turns out that emulators have gotten really good, both the graphics and performance are amazing
CEMU or one of the Switch emus?
I’m using CEMU, the best part is that I didn’t need to spend a bunch of time to figure it out, I found a preinstalled torrent with everything already configured
Down to 7 jokers for Gold Stake difficulty and 2 challenges in Balatro. Once I have those, it will be a 100% competition for achievements.
Debating how involved I want to get with a new game shop in my town. It’s a leftist space, but I fear they have anarkkkidie NATO YouTube brainworms.
Do you take advantage of anaglyph deck + negative joker tag for getting gold stickers or are you a true sicko
I used this with pocket pack skips in pokermon to find all the mega evolutions
I rarely use that deck. I mostly use Magic, Ghost, Abandoned, Checkered, Painted, Plasma, and Erratic. It depends on which jokers I’m trying to get. Plasma makes all the +chips jokers a lot easier, for example.
tears of the kingdom. 'ate the story, luv the gameplay. simple as
Finished Rogue Trader recently, shit goes so incredibly hard. Going back for my first real BG3 playthrough since release and while it’s still great, it REALLY highlights the strengths of Rogue Trader
Worth trying the Pathfinder games if you liked Rogue Trader. Bit more complex in the character build department, but similar size to the story and strength of lore.
Already played wotr (twice). What really impressed me about RT was more the mechanics. Writing and all was great too (better than wotr imo) but the mechanics are truly excellent
Mmm, that’s very true, the combat in RT is definitely a lot more elegant and tactical than Pathfinder’s. I’m hoping that when Owlcat eventually make a PF2e game the combat feels a bit more like RT’s.
Coming Thursday well get a new announcement from Owlcat (almost certainly another warhammer/40k related project)
I had no idea! Exciting!
Trying out different abandonware games I’ve found, so far I have like close to 40 some odd games bookmarked to try out.
I’m actually playing Yugioh The Power Of Chaos and Dynasty Warrior 4 Hyper. I love ygo and playing against an ai that’s at least somewhat competent is fun, and DW is great, it’s funny because I used to hate musou games but I’m learning to enjoy the hack and slash fun.
I assumed Clair Obscur was going to be slop, I am so glad I gave it a shot anyway. I was so wrong. The intro hits so hard it sold me immediately. I don’t think I’ve ever been so invested in a games characters.
The acting and VO are incredible, the writing is top notch, and the gameplay is a modern take on an old school RPG.
I’m more or less finished but I’m just dicking around. I don’t want to leave, it similar to when you finish a good book and don’t know what to do with yourself afterwards.
Replaying Deltarune in preparation for chapters 3 and 4 next month, it’s still so much fun. I’ve forgotten a lot of the jokes so they’re funny to me again. I’ve noticed this time that I really appreciate the visual design of chapter one a lot more. The music is obviously amazing, I don’t get annoyed running into fights accidentally because Rude Buster is like a top 5 Toby Fox song. Field of Hopes and Dreams is also up there.
chapters 3 and 4 next month
wait WHAT
Deltarune tomorrow! By which I mean June 5th
Specifically June 5th at midnight Japan time, so effectively June 4th for a lot of people
I keep playing Mario and Luigi brotherhood since i finally had time, I finished the 3rd sea which was kinda slow the main plot of the islands was about a couple (an ice dude and a fire girl) from diferent islands and also about the glom which turn people negative but it was ok
i really liked the start for the 4rd sea which starts with Bowser and his army attacking the main bad guy flying castle and then seeing Mario and luigi in the ship island and ordering his army to bomb it.
the m&l games are always at their best when bowser appears, I finally change one of marios items which was a scarft that gave him a bunch of extra defence and hp for one that gives him more damage and bp for less hp, which was great because now mario can one shot most enemies, i gave luigi a glove that give him more attack the more money i have and its been slowly getting stronger
i think im at the point were i do so much damage i can pop any boss, specially since the bowser fight was fast because of the damage i did, not all i have left is going to the lighthouse and then to the final sea
