Goal nr. 3/2025 February 16, 19:30 – After obtaining all 5 online Trophies during Free PSN weekend and little bit of practice in The King of Fighters ‘98 Ultimate Match Final Edition on my PS4, I’ve decided to try out the Arcade mode as well. My pick was Hero Team (Kyo, Benimaru, Daimon). Of course, I have picked up the lowest difficulty, but because I have instantly forgotten all of the special moves, I had it pretty tough. Even on the easiest difficulty, the game is much more difficult than Mortal Kombat 11 on Medium, especially when playing without forgotten special moves . The biggest challenge for me, was getting used to different way of blocking, than I am used in Mortal Kombat games. So my first playthrough ended up with many lost fights, and a shameful matchup with final boss Omega Rugal, whom I was able to defeat only after lowering his HP to 1/3rd after few loses . Despite that, I like the feel of this retro game, but I have to focus more on remembering special moves to have a little bit easier time with it.

The rights hell is all about Atari and WotC. A mix of awfulness which could be toppled by only a few

What a coincidence Did he mentioned, that he has actually seen it? And if yes has he seen more than season 1?

I would love to hear his opinion on the Netflix Series as well

Goal nr. 2/2025 achieved. January 26, 23:00 – After spending a lot of time with Mortal Kombat, fighting King’s Pets and farming Dragon Scales, I have finally finished New Game+ of Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin on my PS4. This time, I have encountered Aldia as well, and after winning the fight, I have left the throne for an ending, which I have never seen before. I made this playthrough my personal challenge to defeat every boss in the game without the help of summons. Most of the bosses were fine, including Fume Knight, for which I had to train a little bit my muscle memory, and Gank Squad, which I have postponed until the very end of DLC. But all three of King’s Pets have been major pain in the ass. Lud and Zallen almost made me quit the challenge. Thankfully I got an advice on Obsidian Forums to use Dark Infused Rapier with Dark Weapon buff, which helped me to finally win this encounter as well. I am still missing three more spells for last two trophies, and few items to 100% the game, not counting the PvP exclusive rewards and invisible rings. For that, I will need one more fast run through the base game, and I should have another Platinum Trophy .

Yeah I know that, that’s why I regret it now I have spent a lot of EUR on EUIV content on Steam already, and it is impossible to transfer the license between the shops. Paradox also does not offer any kind of discount for owners of EUIV on Steam for GOG so Rebuying the content again feels a little bit like ripoff now. We’ll see how I would feel about that in year or two.

That’s pretty much the way, how ot works for me. Which means, the only games, which I have on Steam is Assetto Corsa, Assetto Corsa Competizione, Counter-Strike, Half-Life 2 and half of Europa Universalis IV (which I regret now, but it seemed Paradox will never release this on on GOG).

Well there is one thing, that they always forget to mention when speaking about inflation not affecting game prices. The move from physical to digital. Even if some games are still released physically, the content of the box today is empty. When the games cost 40 EUR, they gave you tons of paper content like manuals maps etc. And all of this cost a lot of money, which they cut to appease shareholders If I want to have the same content in the box as I had in 2000’s, I have to pay 120EUR + today. Which pretty much covers much more than the inflation

Tales of series maybe? Tales of Arise is not the most recent, but pretty nice. You start as male Alphen, but after a short while a female joins party and the game story is then centered around both of them equally. The setting is fantasy with a little bit of modern era touch to it.

Oh yeah, someone pointed me to these “puns” on its Steam page as well. Had pretty hefty laughs, that some company proud to market their software to “core audience” in a way, that would probably sparked massive cancel campaign against them few years ago It is getting even more hillarious, when looking back at the Netherrealm Studio lecturing their “core audience” after the first reactions to Mortal Kombat 1 cast premiere in trailers I bet NRS and WB are still wondering why MK1 player numbers are still lower than half decade old MK11

"Hey, what are you looking at? Up here!" - Capcom, 2025.

Game of the Century comming soon!

No need for me. The only two new games scheduled for 2025/6 which are of interest to me, is Awoved and the Outer Worlds. And for that my 16GB 6900XT (to which I’ve upgraded after 8 yearsof playing on GT760) is more than enough. For everything else, there is always GOG

Had pretty nice day today at Dark Souls 2. The fight, which I was most afraid of (Gank Squad) has been victorious on my first try (solo). I have not anticipated that at all, so I had not prepared for anything else to fight against . So after few minutes I have decided to go for Darklurker as well. To my surprise, I was able to defeat him on a second try Another big surprise for me Soo I have decided to go solo against Burnt Ivory King as well Of course this was much bigger obstacle, but still in the end, I had like 5 or 6 tries to win the fight Out of them, I was able to get to the boss fight only three time, and as this was my first ever solo encounter against him, I had to learn his moves as well. Compared to anything before, he was not very difficult so on third try, I already knew how to avoid most of his moves. Aaaand even though I have messed up the last attempt as well, I was still able to find openings to heal up and finish him off So, now every single boss I have ever encountered in DS2, has been defeated solo. The worst one will be for me forever Lud and Zala duo at the Frigid Outskirts, which almost caused me to quit the DLC altogether. YAY... No just to finish the NG+ and go through few more fights to get all of the items and then last three spells for Platinum Trophy EDIT: just one more useless info, I had some time in previous sessions to grind for all of required Loyce Souls to get two more Armour Sets and one more Weapon, which have been locked behind the "paywall". 50 loyce souls and a victory over the Burnt Ivory King were needed to get them.
