Man I already knew Mohg's spear wrecks, but on a str/arc build where it's getting the full benefit of both scaling and with bleed gear, it's really just incredibly ridiculous. Fighting Mohg at a much lower level than I normally do was also really great because it's my favorite boss fight so having to grind through 10 or so attempts was a pleasure. That last 1/5th of his healthbar has gotta be the toughest part of any health bar in this game to actually get down, if you aren't cheesing him at least. He's just so extraordinarily dangerous in his 2nd phase once you start getting low on healing. Nothing weaker than Astel, including Niall, could even force me to stop NIHILing long enough to heal before they dropped.

still just stuck dicking around hoovering up loot in the outer zones in pacific drive, maybe i should finally try to move inward man the only flaw so far is it really just needs like an extra 6 tracks, and an art bell station. otherwise it's a flawless 10/10 GOAT

Ok I've played more Hogwart'd legacy. The game is too long and suffers from ubisoft bloat causiny some of the shine is wearing off. A lot of the stuff in the game is still really good, but there are too many sideQuests that reward you with crap. Too many open world activities to do too. I shouldn't be able to have the in-game challenges for open world activites be completed and still have half the map to explore. Too much poo poo that does not matter and not enough of the fun things like the Too Friendly Knight who meet his demise by making eye contact with a Basilisk. The game world is still really well crafted and fun to look at. Some of the side Quests are funny or interesting. Main questline is fine and i still havent run into the "blood libel" thing. I do like the room of requirement stuff except for the timers. The combat is unique and still fun to engage with. Overall I still think it is 1 of the best ubisoft open world games made so far. For better or worse. Maybe once I finish I can give it a final grade but at the moment I want to give it a 9 if you ignore the extra sideactivies or an 8 if you are a completionist.

I got to finally play Helldippers last night and yeah I can see the appeal. It's offering something different than other 4 player shooters. The strategems mechanic makes me feel like I'm a kid playing Final Fantasy VI and putting in Blitz codes again

I'm glad you're having fun with your nazi game  e: that wasn't intended to be about Helldivers but it works there too lmao I had a rough day at work yesterday and spent last night smoking weed and watching speedruns instead of playing more Chained Echoes. I didn't even know they made mainline Mega Man games for PS1 and have been up and down on MM8 from what I'm seeing of it

Got my BG2 party out of the Underdark, only to forget that I had a quest mod installed that sends me straight back there. I will finish this drat game this time if it kills me. And it will. (It's honestly only going this slow at this point because I'm splitting time between it, Baba Is You, and Grim Dawn right now).

I'm definitely pruning things back a little next time I do this. There were some I really wanted to try out though, and I don't really regret it (mostly). My party is hilariously overleveled though to the point where I can just sleepwalk through most encounters even running SCS (which honestly is adding a bit to the tedium, if/when I play through again I'm definitely scaling XP rewards back).

woke up this morning remembering the time when i was going home half drunk after a party and a huge crowd of people was gathered outside madison square garden (da nets baby love da nets), and i decided to do the creepy assassin's creed maneuver where you just gently push people out of your way by the shoulders. the funny thing is that bitch really worked to clear a path quickly and nobody even yelled or tried to take a swing at me

the nets don't play in Madison Square Garden  I do think the Assassin's Creed crowd-part would probably play better in New York than in many other big cities. Like, in Europe, if you are in a crowd and someone touches you, they have just stolen your wallet

Rogue Legacy 2 is fine, not the best of the genre, but more of the genre. Against the Storm is roguelike progression in an optimizable StarCraft build order simulator. Gnorp Apolog is a cute idle clicker thingy. Very fun math tricks and cute atari aesthetics. Full game is like 20 active hours with an overnight idle thrown in. Each run is like an hour or two to check out how whatever perks affect the math on your number. What was the progression mechanic that you liked in Cult of Lamb? I saw it come out, but I didn't stick around to watch a run.

I didn't think about it, but the combat really is just assassins creed if they had to make it wand based huh. Sort of simplistic slop. I couldn't give a drat about the game after they let you free because the HP universe doesn't have the charm for me. Maybe I'll try on the 4k as some point. I can't believe how far theyve dumpstered the basics of the AC formula so now that I think about it. Just give us a world where you can run on roofs for 2 hours and do ez counters to see a man riposted magnificently for god sakes.

The Harry Potter "universe" doesn't really make sense outside the context of the suburbs and the places that are in the books imo. There are just, like, all these goblin barbarian camps out in the wilderness of... 20th-century-era England? And nobody notices?
