Mamoulian War

And another bossfight from Dark Souls 2 behind me. This time Royal Rat Authority. What to say about it. The small toxic ratdogs and the the fast boss made a lot of trouble to me. It was clear from first few attempts, that the fight is after getting down the adds very similar to Sif from DS1... But my stubborness was more powerful than my mind 😄 25 attempts needed form me to give up on dodging and running in between his legs... The first one I went there, was the final try... *sighs* As always, whole final fight here:

Well, E:D was a scam, so does not count. Also both of them are more in line with Privateer or Freelancer. What I am missing is true successor to Wing Commander, Starlancer or Freespace 😢

More DS2. After spending few hours in Bright Cove Tseldora, while trying to get all the items, I've moved to another bossfight. The Duke's Dear Freja. Not very difficult boss for being the area boss, but for some reason I was to stubborn to tryout few more tactics and I've insisted to jump under her soul beam. After I stopped repeating that, she fell on second try,,, In total, I've needed 9 attempts to get one more Great Soul for my collection. Whole fight bellow

Little bit of theorycrafting on Demon’s Souls by Vaatividya or how it’s spelled...

Eco design of course. Recharchable baterries make lower carbon footprint *shrugs*

Hitman: Absolution giveaway on GOG running right now!

From the few words, I’ve read it’s remaster. Made by the same studio, which made Uncharted Trilogy. So I expect the same treatment, but I would really like to see the levels behind the broken Giant stone gate... But unless, that would be from From, I don’t believe that it would hit the required quality milestone...

More like pleasure stick powered by batteries 😉

With all the due respect, it looks like a charging station for one type of toys, you know that toys, which are usually used for very special ocasions, and which names for some unknown reason gets censored 😄

And another boss in Dark Souls 2 down. This time nothing special, just Prowling Magus and Congregation. Not very proud of that, but I needed 4 tries to get it done. Including one when my controller run out of battery 😄What to say, I did not like the encounter, but I did not need to spent a lot to get it done. All I needed was to learn how to avoid the Lightning Bolts *shrugs*

Just noticed this today on their FB page. Excitement and drooling intensifies... More info here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/owlcatgames/pathfinder-kingmaker/posts/2862274

Yes, Edge of Eternity will be coming to GOG as well!!! https://www.gog.com/game/edge_of_eternity edit: also Gamedec yay!!! https://www.gog.com/game/gamedec

After some struggles and 8 attempts, I was able to defeat Scorpioness Najka. IMO encounter with one of the most interesting designs in DS2. My favourite is still Executioner's Chariot, but this one was much more challenging. The biggest issue was to get there. First the poisoned hollows who attacked always in big groups, then invisible enemies in fog area, and next cursed goat-lions with extreme magic and elemental resistances... I do not know, if there was some glitch in development or if it was intentional, but the next two areas after this boss have much much weaker enemies, which I found strange...

And for a change little bit better boss design in Dark Souls 2. The second Great Soulbearer - The Rotten. Just the arena around it was kind of to hot 😄 I died more times trying to avoid lava, than while outrunning the boss Also the area, which you had to traverse to get to the boss was annoying. To many poison spitting statues lying around... All in all 13 attempts to get him down. The final attempt bellow

In this case I think you are right. concept is fine but because of AI and small arena and clunkiness of controls for caster class, it missed the mark IMO. it was even worse in Congregation Fight...

OK, I'll be can opener in this thread 😄 After getting owned in Iron Keep a lot again and again and again, I've decided to go to the Mjaula Pit, aaand as you can guess, the most challenging opponent of the game is there on every step... Gravity 😄 Getting to the first boss in Grave of Saints was thankfully pretty simple, due to Laddermaster selling, you guessed it... ladders, of course, the first one for 500 souls was a trap and I fallen to deep, which of course resulted in another "corpse run" 😄 The second obstacle was naked NPC Invader with no weapons, well, at least he looked like it... of course he was wearing transparent gear and two special rings, which conceal weapons, but I have found that out only after reading an Wiki entry on that NPC the next day... Now all the hard hits to my head made sense 😄 And after that one strange boss encounter... Royal Vanguard. I had absolutely no clue how this fight works, so for a few minutes I was just running around, like a headless chicken, while throwing Firebombs in all directions 😄 after a while, I've noticed that one firebomb hit resulted in damage to the boss healthbar, which got my attention, and after another minute or so of running around the ratswarn, I have noticed, that one of the rats in the arena has some strange fur on it's back, so I deducted, that maybe he might be a boss... well, that brought to me another challenge 😄 just go and try to lock your spells on one specific rat in the pack of 12 😄 not a chance... and I was out of Firebombs... so next few moments I have run for a change like a chicken, with it's head focused on one target, which was impossible to get a lock on 😄 But enough of words, you can rewatch my silly second and final attempt on this boss encounter below 😄

Torchlight 2, Freespace 1, and War Wind II, all on GoG for retro madness 😛

And after finding the way, how to remove the poison from her arena, I was able to finally defeat Mytha, the Baneful Queen. Not very hard fight without the poison, just my old bones needed to adjust the reflexes to her fast moves 😛 In total 9 tries to defeat her (including two with the poison still there).

To be honest, there are some games in both Shadys and Oners list, I would be interested and play, but I just can’t ask for anything Steam only, because i just simply don’t use it...

Not really, they got in last few months few games, which I never expected to see there. I think, they provide much better incentives to purchase from them (at least for me), than free game every sale.

GOG Galaxy has also screenshot function, but I do not remember which key it is. I think F12, but don't take my word for it 😛

Aaaand before struggling on Mytha, I have encountered the easiest bossfight in Souls games so far, Covetous Demon, in less than 2 minutes was this Jabba clone beaten flat... The main difficulty of this boss, was to get to him through all of the poisoned stuff laying around...

Total Annihilation for free on GOG, and both Life is Strange games released there as well..

Yes it's the poison windmill lady Actually I was trying to figure out how to get her down on my own, but with no success... Later I have just checked BlueLizardJello's Everything possible videos, how many secrets I have missed, and there was one thing, which I believe would never find out on my own...

And I got asskicked by Mytha and lost 20k souls on her. I will have to skip her for now, because I do not have a clue how to fight her now Please no spoliers yet 😛
