My progress on The Witness has been held up by a goddamn stupid puzzle inside the mountain that I’m really struggling with.
I’ll get there. Eventually.
But until then, I think I’m gonna be playing Salt & Sanctuary.
Salt & Sanctuary is basically Dark Souls in 2D. Like it’s unapologetically a Dark Souls game in 2D. Like bugger it. Let’s just copy stuff.
I’m okay with this for some reason.
I’m also gonna play the crap out of it.
What are you playing this weekend?

Doing some couch gaming tonight at a mate’s place, so probably:
Helldivers
Diablo III
Magicka 2
Dead Nation
Monopoly
Apart from that, I’ve started Legend of Heroes Trails in the Sky SC on my Vita. I got 3 hours in and had to restart because the prologue on Hard difficulty was borderline unfair once I got to one of the end bosses. Normal is a lot easier but still gently challenging on the bosses.
I remember something similar happening when playing the Trails of Cold Steel prologue on hard difficulty the final boss was so over-tuned they put a seemingly invincible teacher there so basically everyone gets knocked out easily and you slowly whittle the boss down with the teacher =/ felt somewhat counter-intuitive.
Ah the perils of difficulty scaling in JRPGs 🙂
I really should get back to the Trails games, but they’re so long & stuff keeps coming out!
Yeah. Cold Steel is on sale at the moment but I’ve told myself that I’ve only just started TitS SC and still have a substantial (J)RPG backlog awaiting my tender ministrations.
I bought the Cold Steel collector box for vita. Couldn’t put it down & burnt out. Went back did a bit more, then digimon came out, then bravely second.
I bought Tits SC day one, got stuck because I had no idea where it wanted me to go. Eventually remembered to check a guide. They just jlkeep going with the dialogue & backtracking. I like em, but yeah.
Watching Daredevil s2! 😀
Watching DC watching DD S2!
HAI DC! *waves*
*waves*
I’m hyped for Elektra!
Grim Dawn
Which Masteries are you picking? (Hint: Nightblade is coolest.)
I’ve yet to try nightblade.
I have a level 50 Battlemage (Arcanist and Soldier), and a level 20 Hardcore Shaman
The Division. The missus and myself might jam on PS4, otherwise I’ll be on PC.
Something other than that? I might sink my teeth into Black Desert Online, or XCOM 2.
The Division.
I love its curves and all its edges,
All its perfect imperfections…..
Pokken tournament looks like the game to get me into proper fighting games. It’s approachable but still serious.
Also daredevil.
Nothing is being played Daredevil is being watched!
Once that’s out of the way I’ll play some Division
or some pokken tournament!
Juggling my replay of The Witcher 3 alongside XCOM 2 and Stardew Valley.
Don’t lie to yourself – once you start Stardew it will absorb your whole weekend.
Been playing Far Cry Primal.
It’s a fun game. No one will remember it exists in three months but it’s fun.
I’ve been playing Assassin’s Creed: Freedom Cry
It’s so forgettable that I honestly had to sit here for 20 seconds to remember what it was *called*.
A lot of Salt and Sanctuary. It’s the Souls game I’ve been waiting for so I’m really enjoying it. Plus I’m a huge fan of Ska Studios’ games. Bravely Second will also fill some of the gaps too.
I finished Twilight Princess HD so might get back into Rise of the Tombraider.
Plus Daredevil and the million other shows I’m binge watching right now.
Probably some Division if my friends are on – not much left to do by myself other than collect phones or brave the DZ by myself… other than that, not sure. Maybe go back and play some Far Cry Primal. Or… sleep. There’s a novel idea. Yea, sleep sounds good.
The Division. Trying to get full yellow equipments.
I presume you’ve played most if not all of the ‘story’. What did you think?
The story itself is pretty good. I have not complete the entire side mission and collect all the collectables yet.
It depends what you are expecting from this game but you can certainly see Destiny’s idea in it. The Division have more content than vanilla Destiny at launch and at the moment he PvP is almost non existent due to the rogue penalty being too high.
Not exactly the type of game to play solo, best to be played with friends. End Game at the moment is kinda meh because it is all about collecting loot and perfecting the stats for your build and doing daily missions.
Some challenge missions can take up to 3 hours if your team is not that great.
I’ve yet to explore fully DarkZone yet as I’m trying to fully gear up before going to high level zones.
If I get time from Daredevil I’ll probably keep on keeping on with Twilight Princess.
Bingeing Daredevil Season 2!
If there is time (there won’t) I will keep plugging along with Fallout 4. I thought I was done with F4 but I just got my second wind in it and am enjoying it a bit more again now.
probably more of the division and I’m learning how to knit, so that should be pretty rad
I hope you’ll knit a Tom Baker scarf. It’s the only reasonable choice in my opinion.
Think I’m free of far Cry 4, finished the campaign last weekend and I think I’ve gotten all the achievements I can be bothered getting I bought the complete edition with all the DLC so there’s some extra content I haven’t done yet, I heard the Valley of the Yetis expansion was pretty good so there’s a slim chance I’ll check that out.
Otherwise, I will try and get cracking on my second playthrough of Until Dawn and/or start the Uncharted Collection.
Going to be trying out Black Desert Online. Been a while since I played a sandbox’ish MMO.
Played a few hours of BDO, quite addictive… just that my GTX 670 is showing its age and temp 80+Cs all the time even on 1920×1200.
The Division hasn’t got me hooked, but it’s fun enough that it’ll probably be my weekend. We’ll see on Monday if that’s enough for it to sink it’s teeth in long term.
Got a wedding to attend, but this new lung infection means I won’t be drinking. So once I make my early leave, I’ll probably get back into more Bravely Second. It’s looking to be better that Bravely Default at this stage.
Also, probably fit some Elder Scrolls Online in there somewhere.
🙁 Get well soon!
Softy! Anti-biotics (I’m assuming a lung infection gets you a prescrption, right?) just means you become a cheap drunk! 😀
Two types!
Double whammy!
Going to get to my first D&D adventure league at a local store. Otherwise some more Fallout 4. Some of the new Battlefront maps at good fun too.
Bravely Second, perhaps revisit Trails of Cold Steel also had a itching to play Sims 4 for some reason.
Division
Brisbane comedy festival tonight, work tomorrow morning, but after that – The division with a sprinkling of Rocket league! Maybe a bit of factorio, although once I start that, can’t stop!
Well, Halo Wars just became backwards compatible… so, after I finish Daredevil season 2, I’ll be playing that. Those glorious cutscenes, dropping ODSTs on fools…
ALL UNITS
You don’t play Cutter for ODSTs, you play Cutter for PT Tanks.
I’ve played many a Zelda game but never finished a single one. I’m going to finish Wind Waker HD this weekend and fix my gaming shame.
Then maybe some Until Dawn, just to mix things up.
Resident Evil 4 and Destiny
Picked up Lords of the Fallen for free on Xbox so I’ll give that a go.
Then some Diablo 3 and Fallout 4 because Diablo 3 and Fallout 4.
The division on PC! Anyone who wants to join me add me on steam – Ragnarok92
Keen to get some more time in the DZ. If i get any spare time, it will be Pokemon Yellow on my 3ds 😉
I’ll be playing poker in meatspace, and in between playing the wonderful What The Frack Has Windows 10 Done To My Computer game.
Been playing that for a few days now. Boot up, and before I know it, I’ve lost 5 hours to it… So immersive.
Going through my backlog. Currently touching on Halo: Spartan Assault (it’s lame).
Still playing Smite, but trying to ease off on it a bit.
Since Arin and Danny decided to play Ocarina of Time I got inspired to finally play my 2DS version, which I bought because I never played Ocarina of Time. Just recently finished the Water Temple. I’ve heard a lot of people complain about how hard the Dark Link fight was from their childhood and all I have to ask is why did you suck so much at videogames as a kid? This guy was easy, I accidentally beat him on my first try.
and yes, I am saying that I’m better than you were when you were 12.
Should probably finish Bravely Second, which I put down for TP HD (which is the 2nd game I’ve beaten this year, and I’ve already beaten TP twice) so… Yeah.
The Division endgame/DZ on PS4 will take up any spare time I have. The quest for high end gear is a never ending cycle.
Don’t know what was going on last night with who I was been matched up with on matchmaking but it was very laggy so hopefully that doesn’t happen too often.
Underrail
HoN
Deadly tower of monsters
and Basketball GF
Still doing the Bloodborne, MGS V and Fallout 4 juggle-dance.
Hoping to get Daredevil S2 binge-watched by the end of the weekend. I’m hyped for it as I’ve been reading a few Punisher comics lately.
Until it shows up on Netflix, I’m going to get some more time on Mad Max on the PS4, I’ve leveled Max and the car up enough I should be able to take a decent chunk out of the story missions.
I’m heading to a 12 hour LAN tomorrow in Redfern, so I’ll be smashing The Division on PC all day!
(MorkaiAU on uPlay if anyone is looking for co-op buddies)
Dark Souls II (SotFS): I made it to the gutter last night (have beaten Lost Sinner and Iron King)
The gutter and the next area are by far the worst in the game, think blightown with no visibility, luckily its over pretty quickly
Fallout 4, Witcher 3, Battlefield 4, Minecraft online
yeah just general stuff
Where are you stuck at in The Witness? What puzzle? I haven’t been back to it since I ‘finished it’, but I’ve heard that there’s a lot more to do after you finish.
