Devastating Happy for Bully Boy but Schindler had his chances. Still, he can be very proud.

I don't know why, but the imagery reminded me of this: Aerith is not even a baby. My mind is weird. Yup, he's actually a pretty cool guy

Oh Searle...that must sting. What a match to start the day

Unbelievable. I'm still shaking. What a comeback Williams was stupidly good but Clemens managed to fight back and win this. Incredible

It got what it deserved

Christmas break is over and I'm ready for darts again Fingers crossed for Clemens tonight. And of course for Barney. Kick that son of a gun out of the tournament...please

“Can I go now?” No, there’s still some stuff left. This one’s for @Hero-of-Time PLATINUMS, WHOOOOHOOOOO! Alright, final guessing round: How many Platinums did I collect in 2022? Hint: It’s a pretty well-known number! Alright, Timmy. The last charts are coming up. “FINALLY!” SHUT UP. I gave every game I played a score out of 10. One got a measly 1.5 (if you followed my posts, you may remember the game). And 5 got a perfect 10! Wanna guess which ones? Don’t let me stop you. Here’s the answer: And now for the big questi – “YO, WHAT’S YOUR GOTY?” Oh Timmy, my simple-minded friend…you annoy me. It was a tough decision and very close result, but I think we all know there’s only one winner: And there you have it. Drahkon’s Gaming in 2022. I had a lot of fun with my biggest hobby this year. The industry may slowly but surely approach its own death but until then I’m gonna give it my all. Video games have been with me since I was a little kid. And in recent years they’ve shown me how much I “need” them. Many times, they’ve helped me to wind down, deal with anxiety attacks and escape the horrors of real life. And then there’s talking about games/gaming. Yes, this place is very quiet, but I visit almost every day and I’m happy that there are still some people posting. Very glad to have @darksnowman and @Hero-of-Time for some good banter And @Julius who has posted some incredible stuff over the year. Your experiences with games, regular news and updates, your opinions…They have surely been missed and it’s great that you’re back to some extent. Keep it up, go your own pace and keep dancing in your apartment. The General Chit Chat was the place I mostly lurked about. I enjoyed most of what was posted, especially @Cube's eventual good news about Ollie. Not going to lie, your Christmas picture with the little lad made me smile from ear to ear with a little happy tear. Well, I think that’s all from me for now *turns on PS5*

The thread you’ve all been waiting for. You know it’s true. Don’t deny it. 2022 still has a couple of days to go, but I know for a fact that I won’t finish another game. That’s why I decided to put together my very professionally made charts and share them with the world. Prepare yourselves. HERE THEY COME! First things first: It's all 'bout the money. It's all 'bout the dum dum da da dum dum (Can you tell me whose song this is without looking it up?) How much money did drahkon spend for gaming in 2022 (this includes games, subs and things like controllers, VR, etc.)? Take a guess. Ready? Here goes: Alright then. Onto the next stats: How many games has drahkon played in 2022? Here’s a hint: It’s a number between 0 and 150. Next up: Backlog? Now this is a weird one, because I counted my games in an odd way. You’ll 5 options in the upcoming chart: No Yes Yes PS+ Essential Yes PS+ Extra Yes PS+ Premium Why did I do it like that? No idea. It gets even weirder: The “No” section is actually games I bought + games played via Gamepass. Why did I do it like that? NO IDEA! I think I’m gonna remove this stat for next year or just count the “true” backlog games (i.e. games I bought before 2023). Alright: Here’s the chart: “Oh my god, there’s more? YAWN!” Piss off, Timmy. This one’s fun: With the arrival of PS+ Sweet Chin Music Edition I wanted to know how many games I’ve played from the sub compared to non-sub games: 9! “Excuse me?” Nine! “What are you talking about, you old fart?” Well, not 99…just 9, Timmy. That’s the amount of platforms I’ve used for gaming this year. Now it’s another round of “TAKE A WILD FUCKING GUESS”. Can you guess what my most played device is? I think you can!

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II Finished the campaign. It's CoD. It's fun. That's it

Final gaming purchase of the year

A Short Hike Enough said

Just like BotW, Hades gets a one way ticket to "overrated-junk-island" from me.

You probably tried post at midnight. The site always goes down at that time for some reason.

I wonder how many battles H-o-T has fought after 2 hours of play

Yes. Oh, its on sale? This might be my final gaming purchase of the year.

Why don't you just turn off auto-renew? You should do it right now...you get to keep the sub and it won't renew in a year.

Keep them impressions coming I hated Golf Story because it was tedious and repetitive as hell. Let me know if Sports Story is better in that regard.

Thank you for the insights @Choze

!!!

Couldn't care less for Star Wars and Fallout 76. But Axiom Verge 2 seems like a nice little game. I still have to beat the first one Maybe it's time to whip out my trusty old PSVita.

While playing Death Stranding and Hades I've also been dabbling with Faeria. What is Faeria, you ask? Well take a wild fucking guess... It's a deck-building game More specifically a digital collectible card game. You play 1v1 (or 2v1 in certain co-op modes, but I haven't played those, yet) against a human player or an AI. You play your cards on a board and eventually it'll look something like this: I started with some of the single-player modes (e.g. "Mission Packs" that have you take on AI or complete puzzles where you have to win within one turn; kinda like chess puzzles) and eventually I played some online games. There's a trophy to reach rank 15 (you start at 25) in ranked mode and I always hate those Wasn't too bad, though, as I created a pretty strong deck wish let me rush my opponents to death. Didn't win every single match, but I reached the required rank pretty quickly. I completed all the puzzles, lots of mission packs and got the online trophies so for now I consider this game "finished" (for my stat purposes) but will continue to play it for a while. Maybe even get the Platinum, but that will take quite some time, I guess. Fun game and I'm glad I finally dished out the 5€ when it was on sale recently

You gotta punish those mistakes...a win was definitely within the realm of possibilities...

Wow, I was able to give Ambrosia to ONE Olympian after about 50 suicide and a few successful runs. This Platinum hunt has revealed so many flaws...endgame is unnecessary, you unlock the summons way too late (still only have two), the randomness of progression is awful, there is very little variance (boons don't change the gameplay much, if at all, making the game incredibly repetitive) and having to unlock more Heat instead of being able to immediately crank it up to the max is soooooo dumb. Sadly, I'm now pretty invested in the trophy hunt so giving up is out of the question

Jansen's haircut is amazing
