Stormblood being the weakest of the three FFXIV expansions doesn't mean it's bad.

And again, Stormblood has one of the best character moments of the whole game Y'shtola's severe burn on the dude in the Azim Steppe

Dark Cloud 2 just keeps on piling on new systems and mechanics.

Someone mentioned Enter the Gungeon here a few weeks ago and that reignited my interest in the game. I was going strong with it for a while, having killed the past for the Marine and the Convict, but I feel like so much has been added since then. Synergies between weapons and items, new NPCs and enemies, mini bosses.

I’ve been trying to get a clear with the Pilot but his starting load out kind of sucks. Two nights ago, when I picked it back up for the first time in over a year, I barely made it to the second chamber reliably. Last night I made it to the Dragun twice, but couldn’t seal the deal. The last time was particularly brutal, since I had a hell of a load out but only two full hearts. Got him down to 1/3 then stupidly switched to a weapon with a bunch of kickback and got myself killed.

My success rate for getting deeper has gone up a ton once I stopped trying to go through the oubliette and just use keys on chests to get a better starting gun.

Game still good

Oh nice! I went with the Artorias set with a maxed out black knight halberd which mostly smashed everything to pieces

Who is Chester? I think perhaps I did not.

Oh! That dude! I spoke to him, did not buy anything, did not attack him. Generally in videogames if something does not attack me, then I do not attack it.

Just played five more hours of Dark Souls 2 and am absolutely loving it. Got a +6 great club and am going ham on the pursuer who seems to be cropping up like Mr. X.

Just made my way to the huntsmans copse and already beaten the guy with the scorpion going into his eye. I think called the lost sinner I cannot recall

This is some of the most fun gaming I have had lately. Doing a set souls day was a wicked idea!

I forget that I am between 5-7 hours ahead of everyone and that if I start at 2:00pm then it could be as early as 9:00am for some people!

The weekday streams will be much later

And I think I have met the pursuer in five separate places so far. Only managed to defeat him in four of them. One has about five dogs around it and it is so tough. I am bad at managing enemy numbers.

Also I should probably heal.

I'm gonna spoiler tag this but it is something you should absolutely do if/when you have the chance, it just requires being in majula and is about some cool stuff you can get.

Spend 15k souls at Maughlin's and then go talk to him again when you have 0 souls

Note I only know that's true for the base game, idk if they changed it for Scholar of the First Sin or which version of the game you're playing.

Have you guys ever loved a movie so much that you’ve watched it twice in quick succession?

Last night had some wicked fun in DS2. Visited the picturesque Drangleic Castle where I got baited into losing 40k souls after spending a good number of lives clearing a room of Ruin Sentinels. Many laughs and Oh Nos of despair were had. Beat some bosses. Still got played by the Royal Rat Authority. All in all, fantastic fun and I am looking forward to finishing the Shrine of Amana.

When are you doing your next stream, VG? I keep meaning to try and catch one but I have no idea when you're actually doing them.

I went straight to bed last night after my stream but I want to thank those who watched and chose to watch Dark Souls 2 over playing Disco elysium for a few hours.

Did DLC 1 (aside from the optional co-op area!) and goodness the Sinh the Slumbering boss fight has been one of my most favourite in the whole game so far! I had three summons and we were locked in a full on fight and running around the arena and goodness it was excellent.

Also DLC2 from just the opening part is my favourite area in DS2. The ashen floor, the ashen idol, the HUGE chain you have to walk across, it is amazing It being part of Iron Keep (another area I really enjoyed) makes so much sense. I am also fully aware this DLC has the toughest boss in the game and I know their name, just not what to expect!
