  1. Well...let's see how it'll turn out eventually. I've decided to take a break and get on with the run later tonight or tomorrow. Edit: It went really well... I died...didn't get close to the end But hey, I unlocked everything with the third character. Which means: It's back to the Ironclad and truly finish the game with him. Edit: Reached...
  2. Been watching the second season of Final Space these past few days. Think I'm about halfway through. The overarching plot is a little all over the place, but the entire series is still great fun And mooncake is such a cutie.
  3. Quite the strong deck. Charge Battery is amazing. So is Echo Form, if you can make it work. Interesting decision to replace the starting relic with a random boss relic. Worked out great for you, though. Black Star right at the start is insane They sure are. Can't wait I've been following the reddit to see how people get along with her.
  4. Can I just say: I'm impressed with how polished this game is. So many little details, so many things to do...it's insane. Still don't understand a few things. For example: My kinsect can do some poison thingy, which I can then hit to release poison. However, monsters don't get poisoned? Am I doing it wrong? Also: Is it necessary to switch weapons for different monsters? Do I need to get used to different types of weapons in order to deal different types of damage (e.g. blunt, etc.)? Or can I pretty much just use one weapon throughout the game with no problems?
  5. Quadruple post? Yes, yes it is. You guessed it...it's about Slay the Spire. I did it Beat the game with the third character. Had an amazing deck which essentially let me have enough block to sustain any hit from anyone if battles lasted at least 2-3, which they always do Now to unlock something that I have no idea how to unlock...I assume this will take me at least another 27 hours of play time. And once I've unlocked and beaten this, whatever it is, it's time to do "ascensions". Each ascension changes one thing about a run (e.g. normal enemies are more deadly). Oh boy...getting the Platinum will be tough
  6. Slay the Spire's third character...good lord. Definitely a GOTY contender for me. In other news: Reached a new area in Monster Hunter World. Think I'll go and farm some materials to craft better armor
  7. I now realize what the main thing was that made me stop playing the game at first: I thought that you needed long play sessions to make progress. I was wrong, at least in the early stages of the game (no idea if it's different later). I played for an hour now, finished one investigation, a main quest, upgraded my weapon and crafted a new armor. Yup yup, I can see myself spending many hours with this
  8. Pfff, I'm not a weakling I decided to go with the Insect Glaive for now. The heal effect of my Kinsect came in handy during the battle against Pukei-Pukei. What I didn't utilize at all, however, was the "extract" funktion (edit: the German in me came out...it's function, obviously). Guess I have a lot to learn Spent about an hour with the game just now. 30 minutes in Astera just to take in some more information and then 30 minutes on the hunt for Pukei-Pukei. What a battle that was. Halfway through, a second monster joined the fight...I think it's called Great Jargas? Anyway, they appeared to be screaming at each other for 10 seconds and then immediately ganged up on me. Thank you very much. I ran away and had to track the poison bird again. Managed to find him after a while and was able to take him on without interference. Took a while to beat him, but I did it and I am chuffed What a game! Edit: Do all monster appear in free-roam? I.e. can I farm all materials just in that "mode"?
  9. Now that I'm done with the game, I can say that this is easily the most apt description I can give. Matterfall is solid, but nothing more. Maybe if I took the time to master it, I'd be able to rank it higher, but I just don't want to spend my gaming time with mastering an arcade shooter these days. The game had its moments, though. Occasionally I moved with incredible precision and everything just...worked out perfectly. Very fun. Here's something I thought I'd never say: I started playing a mobile game today. On my new smartphone. Well...at least, it's not one of those "free-to-play, spend 800 bucks on in game currency" affairs. It is, however, a free game. DATA WINGS. Here's how it plays: It's a nice, relaxing game with a pretty cool narrative, so far. I'm actually very intrigued by it. I've also bought The Room 3 and The Room Old Sins with money I earned via Google Surveys. I've played the first two installments on a friend's phone quite some time ago. I instantly fell in love with the puzzles and mystery. Looking at my backlog app I'm quite happy with the year, so far. 18 games completed. I've only put 3 games that I started this year on hold, i.e. in the "backlog" section of the app (Dead Cells, EVERSPACE, Wipeout Omega Collection). Not sure if I'll finish them this year, but we'll see. In the "playing" section there's now DATA WINGS and Monster Hunter World. Slay the Spire I'll keep playing, but I've also finished it, kind of...
  10. Played the beta for a bit. Feels much better than Wildlands but still a little...floaty? But it's weirdly fun in a way Will definitely get this further down the line to play coop with my mate. Wildlands was an absolute blast and we spent over a year with it and Breakpoint seems to evolve the formula a bit. A game to get for Christmas
  11. No, Sony, no.
  12. It's NFL time, baaaabyyyyy! Tonight, the regular season will begin and I can't freaking wait. Took tomorrow off, as kick-off is at 2.20am Cracker of a match-up. Packers (my team) against Bears (boooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh), the longest rivalry in NFL history...perfect game to start the 100th season. In case you haven't noticed: I'm excited
  13. IIRC I never saw them anywhere Maybe I'm dumb
  14. Thank you so much Yeah, that won't be a problem Slap on some awesome music and I'm ready to fight. Will I be matched with hunters that are roughly the same level? Usually I don't like to play games with randoms and it's even worse when they're overpowered. I remember having a lot of trouble understanding the inventory/stash system. Granted, I didn't put a lot of effort into getting to grips with it, but still...there were times when I just couldn't find an item that I picked up during a quest Any tips?
  15. It is. Here's the deal: I know that Monster Hunter World is much more accessible than its predecessors, however, when I started it a couple of weeks ago I was still overwhelmed. Does anybody know of a good video or, preferably, a nice write-up to digest which covers all the basics? Once I've finished Matterfall I will put all my gaming time into Slay the Spire and Monster Hunter World but I'd like to go into the latter much more prepared
  16. My Slay the Spire journey continues. Unlocked everything with the second character and I've started playing with the third. Well...this one is a completely different affair. He (or rather it) has a new mechanic to play around with and it's glorious. Still haven't gotten the hang of it, though. In other news, I've finally started with Matterfall, Housemarque's final arcade-shooter (). It seems to be a very short affair if you only go for one playthrough as it only has 9 levels and 3 bosses spread over 3 worlds. I've beaten the first world. The game immediately bombards you with, I assume, every mechanic/move there is and it's overwhelming. It hasn't entirely clicked, yet, but I've gotten better over time. Seems to be fun, but definitely not Housemarque's best. Considering its probable short length, I'm happy to have only paid 6€. If it was 6 bucks well spent...we'll see. Diablo 3 is done for now. I've reached level 70 with two characters and one of them is equipped insanely good. I'll leave it at that. Maybe I'll come back next season. Great game, glad I've spent aprox. 200h with it on PS4 (I played already it when it was released on console)
  17. Yeah...seeing as I bought Monster Hunter World a couple of weeks ago for sale and as I have only done two quests so far...I think I'll wait with this But good to hear that it's getting great reviews. End-game especially is supposed to be really good. Maybe it's time to ditch Diablo 3 for now and get on with some MH action?
  18. 40 minutes? So 35 minutes full of Pokémon, a 2 minute trailer for Luigi's Mansion 3, 1 minute for Smash Banjo shadow drop and a two minute indie sizzle reel. You heard it here first, folks.
  19. At least there's still some hope for you
  20. Slay the Spire win with the second character achieved! Had a great poison deck. Pretty straightforward. Poison deals damage at the start of the enemies' turn and then gets reduced by one. The run winning card was: Final boss had 165 poison at the end which secured me the victory. It was close, though...without that card I would've died. Well...one character left. But first: getting all unlocks with the second character.
  21. Playing DMC on easy, cheesing the Mile High trophy, hating cats and now this...
  22. In case you haven't noticed: Slay the Spire is incredible. The second character has a completely different set of cards. Poison looks like a fun concept to build a deck around. People, buy this game.
