today I learned that while mohg resists basically every form of spell damage, he does not resist having a boulder hucked at his head at all

Horse during the beast seemed so obvious to me was genuinely shocked when you couldn't summon it

It was 100% supposed to be there originally but I assume was bugged or something. I'm surprised they patched it back in if only as a really delayed admission.

Good luck to everyone in their DLC journies later today; earliest I can do DLC is tomorrow morning and I'm toying with which character I want to try it with first: STR, DEX/INT, or delaying longer to get my Arcane character up to Mogh

I'm skipping the elden ring dlc. I don't want to replay it to that point.

can't you just go straight in if you've already beaten the game? or do i have to ng+ and beat mohg again?

Started playing Evil Genius 2 again and picked up from my last save.

Soldiers are constantly coming into my casino and going to the employee breakroom to shoot sleeping valets. Investigators kill a bunch of social minions who can't fight them and then take pictures of the corpses they made as proof. It's like the entire world is the IDF lol.

It was a great game but I was burned out by Crumbling Farum Azula and past that it was a chore to finish. Almost open world games are too long and out stay their welcomes

The future is live service games where we get 1/4 of the open world map at a time, then they refresh it 1/4 at a time with new events.

you'll play the first 3/4 of the open world map while the game is in early access and be fine with it

I'm gonna play it but not right yet. I've got too many games to get through for me to justify buying another Elden Ring.

I also might have burned myself out on it after trying to do three playthroughs all in a row and not finishing the last one

Galacticare continues to rock, after a slow start. The first few levels really are a slog, but once you get the various upgrades unlocked and get into trying to deal with your consultants it really does get to be smashing fun.

I'm in the middle of an Elden Ring replay right now but I'll probably get to the DLC area in about 2056 at the rate I'm going. It's fine though, I'm having fun.

Fromsoft adding torrent to the Elden Beast fight almost makes me want to start a new game for that alone.

The fight is probably still an annoying slog but maybe not anymore!

one of the tips ill give you is dont build out new service lines just because you have patients. if its an illness that wont immediately kill them its better to get your money right before building new rooms and hiring the doctors to staff them

I know katana and especially Moonveil players are almost universally reviled as scrubs, but there’s a reason they’re so widely used, they’re just fantastically fun and effective weapon

imo when it comes to complaints about any item/playstyle in any game being op: learn to use it or learn to counter it, but no point in recognizing that something is very powerful and then just whining about it lol
