Welp, I've officially failed my challenge and will gladly contribute to the spine fund when someone gets around to banning me On a better note, my Switch is now functioning again thanks to my very handy friend intervening in my time of need, so I still intend to finish the challenge on it's original terms (due date aside) and will update when I get to that point.

Dark Souls is going the smoothest it ever has despite me somehow having never played the bottom layer of Undead Burg or the Depths before. On to Blighttown!

Blah, Watch_Dogs 1 DLC in the bag. The story was better than the main game. The addition of the RC Car was pure brilliance and made doing missions a lot more fun. Way too many goddamn side missions for a a DLC this size.

I think this is do-able and is a quick turnaround: I will finish FF7R (I’m in chapter 13, I think) and RE2 Remake (not started) by 6/30.

I beat Sekiro, very unsatisfyingly. Turns out waiting a year between plays didn't somehow season me into an expert upon my return. First several fights I just died because didn't remember the basic controls, like attack or parry lol. I wound up defeating Isshin in the dumbest way, chugged all my potions, used all my little gizmos juice and mostly just ran the hell around trying to dodge stuff because I couldn't remember any of the special tricks to deal with the special "red symbol" attacks. There were a couple you could do a mario-jump on his head and I think I accidentally reversed one by mashing buttons frantically, but it felt like just a battle of attrition. Last time I played I played much, much better than this... but I also kept losing so go figure. Never got the hand of the lightning attack reflect, even at launch, and I think I only beat him this time because I got very lucky and he only did the unavoidable lightning thing twice and I managed to survive them both. It had also been so long that even though I got the best ending, I don't remember my motivations or anything so the tiny cutscene was a little ??? for me.

Haven't been in the mood for too much gaming, also PSO2 has taken up a lot of game time currently. I did manage to run though the two story DLCs for the original Dishonored. Had the game for years, but only got the DLC recently. Very good, highly enjoyable. Currently working on Bioshock 1 and remembered how much I hated The Farmer's Market when I originally played years ago. Saved at the beginning of Fort Frolic now, which I remeber enjoying. When I played originally I got to the part where you become a big daddy, but that was when the game came out. Also slowly playing The 25th Ward, which is extremely good.

I have a handful of games I picked up over the last couple of weeks, and had fun with them all, but I'm afraid of them falling by the wayside. Can I have first reply pick the game for me? Let's say whatever it is has to be done by the end of July. Desperados 3 Gears Tactics Subnautica Final Fantasy V Dark Souls 3 (has been beaten years ago) Persona 4 Golden Pathfinder: Kingmaker TROUBLESHOOTER Abandoned Children Outward Outer Wilds Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen Steamworld Heist

 RE2 done. I'm counting doing one playthrough as "beating" the game. Loved every second of it, will probably go back and play Claire at some point soon.

Personally, I feel like Leon + Claire should be what counts as beating it, but I'm no RE2 expert.

DOUBLE CLICK HERE posted:Outer Wilds hope it's not too late, but please play Outer Wilds, the only perfect videogame. Not trying to kinkshame P4G but just ask yourself, would you watch a 2 hour slice of life anime set in highschool about several very uninteresting characters, and would you still do that if they forced you to actually watch it the whole time while also requiring you to fiddle with a controller for the privilege? If yes, then maybe you'd enjoy doing that for dozens of more hours plus grinding menu based combat. There's actually a lot of good games in that list, but P4G is a specific drug and you already know if youve got that blood type

I've never suddenly and immediately enjoyed a game I was unsure about like I was with RE2. It was the only game where I hunted the platinum because it was so fun that I didn't want it to end. Learning to be part speedrunner was really interesting. And finally getting the infinite rocket launcher to make the entire game your chump was really satisfying. I'm definitely into the Persona series. I played P5 and P5R and beat both within a month of their release. And with the selection of the thread, I'm already in November of P4G so I'm making good time. I definitely would have strayed with the likes of Subnautica, Forza Horizon 4, and the 6 other games I bought on the first day of the Steam sale.

And Bioshock 1 is done with a Platinum. I also got the trophies on the challenge rooms, because why not. Good game overall, but I feel it didn't age super well. The atmosphere and story telling hold up, but the level design feels kinda boring and lacks any meaningful degree of verticality. It doesn't feel like a full immersive shooter experience to me, at least not compared with Deus Ex or later games like Dishonered or Prey. Probably the biggest reason was how lacking the game was for meaningful choices during gameplay. Pretty much everything comes down to murder or making something else murder. There is stealth in the sense that you can get some move speed and sneak damage with the wrench, but no non-lethal options or ways to remove enemies from an area without killing them. Sure, you can draw them off for a moment, but the alerts don't last long and they quickly resume positions. Hacking cameras, turrets and bots just gives you more firepower. Obviously the active camouflage is an exception to what I'm saying, and is capable of completely negating some of the scripted events. Either way, once you get some wrench upgrades and research there is basically no situation where the optimal solution isn't just rush in spamming electrobolt and wrench. Hack any turret, bot or camera you find in the process and its even easier. Daddies are a pain and sometimes just turn into "Do You Have Enough Medkits, And Can You Hit The Medkit Button Fast Enough" but chain stun to wrench works fine until midgame when you just dump 4 rounds of explosive buck into them, then swap to electro gel and stunlock them till death. The Gel works the same way on the final boss too. The gunplay feels sloppy and without the auto aim on the PS4 version bordered on unplayable. This is coming from someone who immediatly turns auto-aim off or down extremely low. The Plasmids in particular feel terrible to aim, with Shock being the worst offender. It feels like it has absolutely no margin for error. Once I turned auto-aim back on the gameplay improved significantly. Obviously slogging through on Survivor was my own call, but still. I had basically maxed out resources by the end of Fort Frolic, and never had any scarcity again. I kept forgetting how rarely the game auto-saved, and lost chunks of progress a number of times. That's on me though, although slightly more auto-saves would have been appreciated. Or none, so I would remember to save after clearing a whole level before dying of stupidity. Obviously I know about the Vita-Chambers, and the encounter design is clearly done with them in mind. Since I wanted the Plat in one run I turned them off outright in the main menu.

Gonna go ahead and forgive myself of Wasteland 2. I enjoyed OG Fallout 1 & 2, but Wasteland 2 didn't quite do it for me. On the other hand, i'm going to to complete Pillars of Eternity 2 by August 31st. I just started an Orlan Rogue and hot drat, I had no idea this game was so much better than Pillars of Eternity 1.

 Aaaaand done. 45 hours was the final total. God drat Teddie sucks so much. I think my favorites in the game flipped around from the OG Persona 4. Chie, Yukiko, and Teddie belong in the trash. And I actually kind of like Yosuke now weirdly enough. Now I can relax with a bunch of new rogue likes, racing games, and preparing for a shiny new Monster Hunter World update on the horizon.

I'm going to give up on the Witcher games, 1 and 2 being the ones I actually own and which my constantly immolating laptop could actually run, and 3 too because why not and it's never fully been my kind of game by the looks of it anyways. And I to complete NITW by end of month, I've heard stupid amounts of people I admire and/or whose opinion I respect that it's the best thing since salty butter.

Finished up The Last of Us Remastered along with the DLC. Was decent. Technically have finished The 25th Ward, but I want that Plat. Which means watching the last chapter another 80 times to see the rest of the endings. I'll get there, its only a five minute chapter so I can do it while watching stuff.

Did NITW You know I knew it'd be something with *some* emotional gravitas from word of mouth but. I dunno, I was greatly surprised. It punched above its belt in more ways than I imagined it would. I expected to feel sad. I did not expect to feel angry, and I did not expect to feel scared. Did it with time to spare, so I imagine I'll come back, this has been a great motivator honestly, not to mention quite the decent bit of fun.
