Consumed By Darkness
Keeping bouncing between borderlands and FFXIV, levelling my alts in FFXIV is just far too monotonous at times so it's nice to break it up by shooting the shit out of things.

While traveling lately I've been playing Link's Awakening DX on my 3DS. It's a lot of fun, but man, pretty obtuse at times. Always amazed kids were expected to (and did) figure this stuff out.

I started another playthrough of Bloodborne, <_<. Yeeting as a pure strength character now, I'm already level 50 or so; just got to the point in the Forbidden Woods where things get a bit fucky. I've not done a speedrun as such (just yeeted through the first section because fuuuuck that shit), but it still took me quite long to clear Cathedral Ward plus the optional areas and activities before Amelia. It's only my second playthrough (but like the fourth or fifth time I restarted it, lol), this time I'm reading up on NPCs and quests and shit.

Next time (if any) I'll send 'em all to Iosefka, :awesome:. Speaking of I just unlocked Cainhurst, should go for that one next beacause Logarius' Wheel. iirc. Last time I only found out that was a thing when I was looking up stuff I missed before finishing the game. Sad.

Update to my previous poast: I finished BB, all of the DLC. I messed up on the endings though, did certain actions too early. Did manage to get one variant of the NPC sidequest(s) done though, I had completely missed that on the first playthrough. The DLC was dank, great shit, I've just kinda cheated with the final DLC boss because I managed to summon two other people who made short work of the final boss. I gave it a few good wallops though, and helped out a couple of other people to beat it. Well, attempted to anyway. It's weird, I got the furthest the first or second time I fought him on my own, I think I was still pretty wired / in a zone because of
Lady Maria
, who was also a tough one but very satisfying in the end.

Dumb question, but does that game have a good lore/story to it?

Finished Zestiria

That dog was pretty crafty, every time there was time pressure on a quest I went for it right away in case someone else died. Kinda annoying that several quests didn't open until you reached the burned ruins of your hometown, because I couldn't picture Sorey deciding to put Elysia on hold to go track down a turtle.

I liked most of the cast, and I'm shipping Alisha and Sergei as a political marriage. Seems like they'd get along.

Like most of the cast, and their total disregard for standard villain nihilism. Edna pushed it by being needlessly cruel, though.

I loved that game. Berseria as well! I just finished watching Zestiria the X season 2

You know that period before game/movie comes out and people make crazy theories based on few leaked images and frame-by-frame analysis of the trailers (so like us here, haha)? Yeah. That's the lore/story of Bloodborne. Everything is hidden in item description and one-liners but DAMN is it interesting, and weird and... and for the rest you have to read wiki and watch lore videos on yt. Do people figured the story right? Who knows.

As for me I just got Platinum is Spider-man two days ago and now kinda have that post-completion-game-disorder. But it motivated me to watch Into the Spider-verse and that was good move on my part. Maybe I'm gonna hunt for that secret costume.

I'll have to check it out then. As much as people diss ff15, I love ff15's lore/story. It was the same way

Vampyr.

Am I supposed to have a problem with the guard of Priwen? So far they've been completely honourable and provided a totally necessary vampire slaying service. (Just come out of the theatre).

I'm almost done with Judgment. I have many thoughts. tl;dr it's not Yakuza. It does have its own interesting gameplay which feels a little unpolished, will probably improve with the sequel (which I presume will happen.) Fuck that thumb turn lockpicking though :monster:
Also I have about 10% interest in the protagonist. His sidekick is far more interesting x) xD
(Also re: it's not Yakuza - my main problem is not with the main story, but with the side quests. They feel poorer in quality (the writing) and more repetitive. At least one dating side quest is fun, but it's sad
you only get to date people you save from some type of sexual assault. That feels iffy to me and is a definite trigger for some.
So yeah I was nose wrinkling through some of the quests and fast forwarding through some because they were simply dumb. The Yakuza games managed to make the side quests interesting and fun without resorting to stereotypes. I'd want more of that.)

Recently got Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Donkey Kong Country Returns. I'm 9 years late on those. :wacky:

Been in the mood for some jolly platforming games lately.
