It looks like there might be some shakedown in the AAA going on currently. WB is discussing going Free to Play and mobil only and leaving console market after enormous flop of Suicide Squad. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/warner-bros-discusses-volatile-aaa-console-games-will-lean-into-free-to-play-and-mobile/1100-6521597/

Heh, we do not have foreign policy now. We are de jure still NATO and EU member, but we are now de facto a puppet state of Russia. Probably on the same level as Belarus. The funny thing is, that Muscovites are considering our leaders as coward collaborators as well. Oh and Hungary "has" same territorial claims on Slovakia, as Russia "has" on Ukraine. And guess who has upper hand in Kremlin at the moment 🤷♂️ If any of these idiots will at some point decide to populistically make a referendum about leaving NATO, which will most likely be successful, we will be eaten by Hungary in matter of weeks, with Muscovites acting as "peacekeepers" in a same way, as they acted in Nagorno Karabakh The whole three days of real independence will be surely worth it, wouldn't it?

Slovak Foreign Minister had a meeting with Lavrov, and our Prime Minister has boasted how important that meeting was and how important for us are the relations with Russia. Few days after that as a reaction, Italy announced, that the agreement about SAMP/T AD which they provided to us, will be terminated, and it will be transported to Ukraine ASAP. Another reaction was that Czech Republic, our closest neighbours and friends for few hundreds years will not be attending any bilateral meetings on highest state level with PM Fico anymore, as any meeting like that would put a big stain on Czech Reputation. The third reaction was, that there will be event on embassy of Netherlands in Prague, where EU ambassadors/diplomats have been invited to attend, with the exception of Slovak one. They will be talking about the situation in Slovakia... It took less than 6 months to our new government, to completely destroy all goodwill we gathered since 1993, when we became independent. Slovakia is currently idiomatically back in 1939, when we became Hitler's puppet state 🤷♂️

It is two more days on sale, if you have not played it yet 😛 Anyway, just in case, I will post you one more game from my wishlist, which should be released soon ™️, although it is Turn-based one, but I think, it might fulfill all of your other criteria. https://www.gog.com/en/game/realms_beyond_ashes_of_the_fallen

IMHO the best was Dragonfall. The best combination of combat and narrative. SR felt a little bit short, and HK a little bit long. The HK bonus campaign was a treat as well. Something in between SR and DF.

Goal nr.3/24 achieved February 28, 21:15 – I have completed very fast run for the last Trophy in New Game ++ of Dark Souls: Remastered on my PS4. Approximately three hours to clear my way to both Bells of Awakening, defeat Sif and another run to Anor Londo blacksmith. There I have ascended last two boss weapons from Sif’s and Gwyn’s souls, and with that, I have unlocked the Knight’s Honor and The Dark Soul Platinum Trophy.

Goal nr. 02/2024 has been achieved few days ago February 25, 21:30 – New Game + of Dark Souls: Remastered on PS4 has been completed :). The second ending was of course To Link the Fire, which gave me another trophy in my Platinum run. During this run, the goal was all miracles trophy, and all missing weapon ascension trophies, with the exception of Knight's one, for which I need to defeat Sif one more time, and then run all the way to Anor Londo blacksmith. During NG+, I have found out, that this game started to feel much easier with melee character than with the sorcerer one. The only exception was Kalameet, which was destroying me for almost 3 hours and almost always around 10-20% HP mark. I am just happy, that I have learned how to control my rage, as few years ago, I would be most likely in need of a new controller 😄

Macron is the first western leader, to speak about the possibility of deployment of western troops to Ukraine. https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2024/02/27/7443873/ He also announced coalition for providing medium to long range ammunition to ukraine for deep strikes against Russia. https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2024/02/27/7443877/ although Scholtz still refuses to provide Taurus missiles https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2024/02/26/7443813/

There are numerous claims, that UA is retrofitting all of their S-200s, with modern electronics, and that currently the only common thing it has with soviet S-200 is husk and explosives. And there are also rumours, that they can be launched from a specially jointly developed NATO-UA launcher, which can launch various ex-soviet and NATO standard missiles. Someone already talked about the name of this project, but, I can’t remember it. the first half is for me pretty plausible. More, than friendly fire. As A-50 airplane’s primary purpose was to scan sky for UA missiles and drones, and AD batteries. It is simply hard to believe, that they would allow their own AD, which they commanded, to shoot at themselves. the second half, it seems a little bit unrealistic at the moment? Unless someone knows, the exact name of this project, and can confirm/deny if it is real or not. Also, there have been first official talk about UA KIAs, since 2022. Zelenskyi has stated in interview, that number of UA KIAs is 31000, and number of RU KIAs is 180000. He did not specified number of WIAs nor MIAs on UA side. On the RU side, they are counting with 500000 WIA+MIA combined. https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2024/02/25/7443637/

Kalameet is finally defeated on NG+. It was royal pain in the ass. It took me today 2 hours of attempts. Most of them under 20%. But then, I always got obliterated by two random attacks, which I was not able to properly block nor outroll. Rinse and repeat. Sigh. My first attempt was one of the best, but I choose the wrong weapon, and had to fight him almost 10 minutes. I got him down to 10 or so %, and the I did some stupid things and ran out of Estus. And I did not have Humanities on my fast access bar. Sigh. Reward for that was 2 more hours wiping the floor with myself 🤷♂️ I can say, that this fight was the only fight, which have been harder as melee, compared to my previous Platinum Runs with sorcerer build.

Well Kalameet is even bigger roadbloack than Manus. I was able to get his tail in few attempts, but I have very hard time to get him under 50% of HP in NG+. The armor upgrade, which I’ve done for Manus, does not help much. I think I will have to grind 2-4 more levels 😩

Today, I had a roadblock day in Dark Souls Remastered. With the defeat of Nito today, Ihave finished all base game bosses and moved to DLC again. This time, it was Manus time again. Aand I got owned badly… needed around 20 attempts to defeat him. It was my typical scenario. First attempt getting to 10%, and then doing something clumsy, and then getting asskicked next half hour… anyway. For some reason, Manus spammed a lot more spells than in NG (is that his typical NG+ behaviour?) so whenever I was cheering, that I will defeat him, he cast two or three spells in a row, and I got destroyed. So after a hour or so, I needed psycho hygiene, so I went for a few minutes to grind for souls at Painted World, until, I had enough for two more levels in Attunement, and then I have fully upgraded Paladin’s Armor, and finally replaced Ornstein’s one, which I have used for almost 100 hours. The Paladin one is a little bit heavier, but has much bigger Physical and Magical Resistances, which came in handy against Manus. And again. First try was almost perfect, but he cast two spells in a row again 🙈 Then I had to die few more times in silly situations, before he went down. The only boss missing except Gwyn is Kalameet. Which I want to see without his tail again. I have never achieved this in NG+, so this is my ultimate goal 🙈 I will be most likely stuck there for few days, because of that 🙈
