Decided to do a full 100% achievement run on Evil Within (just the main campaign, so I can justify buying all DLC before Steam sale ends).
Got to the point where I wanted to beat the campaign under 5 hours...

Started resident evil 2 remake today. quite impressed how they have kept the general feel of the original whilst being so different. It also runs pretty well considering im using a gtx 970.
couple of issues with it you cant skip the cut scenes. which is quite annoying for me as i play the thing in hard core mode so i die quite a bit then have to watch all the cut scenes again.
also it wont let me use 1900x1200 and when i put it in 1080p it locks to 50 fps.

I finaly managed to play through the first hour or so and managed to save it. so i will continue along when i have the time.

Back to The Witcher 2, cause I still haven't finished it. Then on to TW3.
I really recommend finishing it twice: choose Ivoreth first time then choose Roche second time. Roche side is far more canon but both have a very, very small impact on TW3. I love the story on the Ivoreth side (good feels man); it has a ton of plot twists I didn't see coming having played Roche side first. If you have a save at the point of choosing between Roche or Ivoreth in Act I, you can load that to switch and save yourself having to play through most of Act I but that's seriously only like 15% of the game.


Still hammering Gothic 3 and StarCraft II Co-Op Missions (!!!!!). I really hope to finish them before Yakuza Kiwami launches on Friday (I put that at like...1% chance :cry:).

My brain farted and I was pretty sure it would launch the 15th but nope it's the 19th so you have time :D And I'm pissed I wanted to play too. You can preload it now.

Still playing Final Fantasy XIV but I have to finish Dragon Quest XI one day or another :D

In the last few weeks I finished God of War on the PS4 and I've been into Forza Horizon 4 and Assassin's Creed Odyssey on PC. Now I am looking forward on completing Red Dead Redemption 2 as I started it but felt the need for a break.

I really recommend finishing it twice: choose Ivoreth first time then choose Roche second time.
Back in a day I've attempted 100% achievements without guides and it took me 3 playthroughs to even figure out that there is a Scoiatael path in the campaign :laugh::laugh:
Tried to get the last 4 achievements not too long ago but gave up... Not enough time, not enough practice. Only have 3 left in the human path (the ones I missed somehow), and of course the Insane mode.
Witcher 2 never gets old. Came out nearly 8 years ago and still looks awesome in 4K Ultra.

100%ed Resident Evil Revelations 3D

This is so good! So damn good! The best gameplay/graphics for 3DS along with Kid Icarus Uprising. Can't believe Nintendo and Capcom manage to do this, so cool!
Story and ship level design are superb. Enemies are fast and with nice angry AI. Probably better than Resi 5. Final boss battle is kinda over the top with hallucinations/illusions/teleportation but it's ok.
Glad that there's more Jill than Chris gameplay. Parker and Jessica are nice characters as well.
Even Quint and Keith with their jokes didn't ruin REveleations.

Verdict: 5/5

My fav 3DS games so far are:

Resident Evil Revelations
Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3D
Kid Icarus: Uprising
Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D
Metroid: Samus Returns
Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance
Sonic Generations

moar Destiny 2 shenanigans with clan mates. Valentine's Day event has started & the rewards are somewhat lackluster. At least I can grind daily & weekly quests, missions & adventures.

How do you intend to do that ?
Already have six (Zeratul, Tychus, Kerrigan, Zagara, Karax, Verazun) to level 15, two (Swann, Alarak) to level 9, and level 40 mastery. There's several I know I'm not going to play to 15 because they're not fun for me (e.g. Swann, Nova, and Raynor). I would be done with Gothic 3 by now if it weren't for all of the StarCraft II Co-Op Missions.

Returned to The Elder Scrolls Online. Not all that bad, still great fun to tinker with character builds and set combinations.

Also, mods... here's some Reshade love applied

The engine may be dated as hell... but the scenery is still pretty cool!

Want me to help you level the boring ones in about 3 hrs (time when I login, not duration of lvling) ?

I'm going to bed imminently.

What I meant by my message about "finishing them" was that the guy I've been playing Co-Op Missions with getting bored of playing the game. As long as I get the three I paid for to level 15 (which is only Alarak at this point), I'm happy. He bought Han and Horner at about the same time so we'll be getting both of them to 15 probably the next time we play it. The commanders I don't like feel like a painful grind I have no interest in partaking in.

Zeratul is just plain OP (Zorya Legion FTW). Zeratul on offense + Karax on defense/support is godly.

We do random map and Zeratul is the only commander that can do it all:
-crazy fast start because instant-builds Vespene collectors for free + Chrono Boost + no pylons + fixed 100 supply (Karax has a slow start, Zeratul can set up Tesseract Cannons for both players before the first wave spawns)
-crazy offense because of calldowns + deployment time passive (Karax heals them and can support them with Spear of Adun abilities)
-crazy defense because of Tesseract Cannons and Monoliths + barrier passive (Karax repairs them, shields them, and has long-range damage dealer to take advantage of Tesseract Monolith stun)
-crazy units that do exceptional in both roles (Immortals that not only shoot air targets but kick them back hard, for example) and they're accessible very early game (Karax supplements them late game with healing Carriers)

There's only two downsides to him: no good detection unit (Tychus and Alarak come out ahead there) and Zeratul himself isn't very durable if hostiles detect him (kind of on par with other commanders like Zagara) but he makes up for it in being permanently cloaked, able to go see the entire map from the start, and able to jump around the world for free (with cooldown).


Tychus comes close to matching Zeratul but he falls flat in the defense department (his defense is literally a strong offense + medivac mobility). Tychus also has a comparatively slow start. Tychus + Zeratul on offensive maps = finished in record time

This bit of Black Mesa gets a little easier after the 100th attempt.
