Tale

I'm excited for a new Killer Instinct. And Metal Gear Solid, as always.

We even have a Steam group. http://steamcommunity.com/groups/SODOFF

Penny-Arcade Adventures: Episode 4 I loved 3 and thought it the best of the franchise. So far that's true, the humor in the previous was more frequent. But I still really like this one and it seems to have a more solid storyline propelling it.

Deadly Premonition I think I've said "what the ___" too many times before it even gave me control.

Modest increases. I don't like systems that increase every level. I just don't like seeing the scores bloat up to gigantic numbers. But there should be a few gains. That's not because of any systemic concern, but more of my need to feel like the character is growing in more ways, while avoiding bloated numbers.

Hah. I was excited and ready to go running yesterday, but then I looked down at my little toe. "Oh right, it's still red and purple."

Groupee's bundle had Primordia and Drakensang, so I had to grab it. Especially with the recommendations around here. No time to play it yet, but I will make some this week. At least until Deadly Premonition arrives.

Necroing threads just to try for a bite after it failed to catch on the first couple of times doesn't seem well advised.

Baldur's Gate II Neverwinter Nights 2 Dragon Age: Origins Mass Effect 2 FEAR Half-Life 2 Team Fortress 2 Tales of Monkey Island I want to add the Ace Attorney games to that list. We'll see.

With all the hype for Ace Attorney 5, I've decided to marathon the series. I'm in that good zone where it's recent enough for nostalgia, but old enough that I don't remember anything. So I'm looking forward to it.

Always interesting to hear things like that. Wonder why they didn't go all the way.

I considered Alan Wake to be a really crappy game when I first got it. It's definitely not worth the price they were originally asking. It was a very repetitive game. That said, when I bought it again on sale just to try out American Nightmare and see if my opinion changed, I liked it more. Because it was cheap. American Nightmare I can't even recommend cheap. It's only three levels long. Repeated like three times, just a little shorter each time.

Yay. Thanks.

I hesitated to get Skyrim. It was tons better than Oblivion, so I'm comfortable with it.

I spent about two hours recovering my system after a hiccup in the power caused my machine to shut down while my anti-virus updated. Also, my WoW account runs out today. So I'll probably be playing Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen more.

That's accomplished through a pretty long quest chain? Quest chain isn't that long, but it is interesting. The challenge is in the tightly tuned final boss.

Got my green fire book in WoW. Now to convince myself to continue playing it.

I absolutely loved that game. If you love old school Final Fantasy style RPGs, it's a really good one. And the writing was actually far funnier than their comics have been in a while.

I'm getting bored of WoW, so I'm probably going to cancel my sub pretty soon here myself. I like the leveling experiences of the game, but hate the grinding. So it's good to hit up the expacs at some point to see what's new.

Would the lowest common multiple of 6 and 2 be 6?

I can't be joyed or aggravated by the news. I simply do not hold Star Wars with any degree of reverence. There's more junk with the Star Wars label on it than actual quality material at this point. And that's not even a particularly recent development.

Finished Bioshock Infinite. I really liked the game, just not sure the ending made sense. On to Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen

Not yet, anyway. They will be adding more classes, which classes, I'm not sure. If I had to guess, I'd say an archer (likely ranger) would be next. The game is severely lacking an archer right now. I don't think I can be motivated to play until there's something like a Warlock or Chaos Sorcerer. Ooh, or Spellblade. Going with only the standard 4 seems very boring.

No Warlock?

I'm really enjoying Bioshock Infinite.
