Wasteland 2
Really? I actually don't think it was in any kind increasing the fun. Hitting the head / eyes with 95% hit chance should be the most obvious choice for everyone, and aiming at the eyes always has been the best choice in Fo1 and Fo2. There has never been a reason to target any other body part unless you are doing it for the lolz, as it was just increasing the combat time (you kill slower, which in return gives the enemy more time to shoot at you). Like I wrote above, even the groin knock-down usually kept the enemy out of combat for only one turn. Better spend that bullet on his head, then you possibly kill him with a critical hit.

Wasteland 2
PS: I don't think that aimed shots are really a that good idea. Yeah, people will think back at Fallout with this, but then again... In Fallout your target always had been eyes... or the head, if eyes had a too low hit chance. Sometimes you knocked someone down for a turn with hitting the groin for lolz, but that's it then. Pretty sure the same will happen with Wasteland 2 then. Just shoot the body part that kills fastest, everything else is probably a waste of ammo.

Movies you've seen recently
The new Alien movie would be after Aliens and before Alien 3. At this point in time Hicks (not Reese ) is still alive. Now that sounds like a cheap way of crowbaring the story to fit with the other movies, but honestly, I don't care. I would love it to see Ripley and Hicks again.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
Strange to see another DX:HR post so long after the games release. Damn, reminds that I so much wanted to get more DLC for this game... but nothing happened.

What are you playing now?
Yes, say no to alcoholism! Kind of stopped playing Dying Light. The performance is kind of... not so good, which kills my mood.

Yeah, thought pretty much the same.

From what we can see in the gameplay videos so far, it probably will be quite similar. And seeing how Ground Zeroes is made up, I wouldn't be surprised if Phantom Pain will get a similar mission structure as Peace Walker had. Me personally I would be happy with it. Similar in broad strokes maybe. Peace Walker and Portable Ops have their structures because they were on portable systems. They were designed so you could play in short segments with plentiful stopping points. And with the memory restrictions on the PSP. With them going for open world I don't suspect that'll be the case in Phantom Pain. Big maps with lots to do, where the mission structure in the portable games was always one thing to do at a time. Yeah, but you also get the Base building and Base management in Phantom Pain. So I am pretty sure you will be able to "get back to Base" at nearly any time or after finishing off a bigger mission target. Right now I am guessing that the Phantom Pain gameplay will be mission style and these missions will feel like Ground Zeroes.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt [2014]
"If you set up a trap or Yrden sign in front of the enemy, they will actively avoid it." So why use it then at all? :>

Finished Metal Gear Rising. Not a that bad game, but way too over the top for my taste. MGS4 was a lot already, but this...

Successfully resurrected it and then gave Obsidian a chance to improve it...Bastards! Just that Fallout wasn't dead at this time, even though many people try to claim it was. We had such discussions already before Bethesda had their Fo3 released.

To be honest, everyone who gave him money kind of deserved it.

Yeah. It's a thin line, though. Yesterday due to bad luck or w/e, I've lost two good heroes. I could have cancled the quest before, but I was close to the end and if I had cancled it, there would be negative effects again + even more stress, resulting in me having to chose other characters for the next dungeon that haven't "recharged" enough yet to be really effective. Also with the lack of money due to the cancled quest, I couldn't "recharge" the current heroes. So if I fail in the next one as well, which is very likely due to the not-top-fit heroes I would have to chose, then I am up for even more bad shait in the future... If I am still able to play much further with all the shattered characters anyway. I know that's what the game is about, but it's loosing a bit fun for me in such situations- becaus one single random event just influenced my next 3 or 4 dungeon runs in a bad way. They need to tweak the game a tad more and add stuff like stress relief when finishing a dungeon, etc. Something to counterbalance all the negative stuff a little bit. Then you still get broken characters, but at least you can still somewhat continue and might be able to pull everything around again. :> Damn, in the end I am just pissed, because I lost my warrior woman. She pwned so many enemies, and then because of one stupid masochist trait + failed healing + bleeding she died at the god damn endboss of the dungeon. The endboss died in the next turn and I was able to exit the dungeon....... I took care of her so much and then BAM, gone she is. /Edit: I agree with what others have said.. The game isn't hard because you are so bad at tactics, but because it is so very random in everything.

Still Darkest Dungeon. Started a new game and did some things different this time. Got a much better run so far, but still lost a few heroes, which pains me a lot. Later in the game it probably will get really hard to level up the noobs. Have to say, for my taste there is a little bit too much random in the game. I can try to prepare for a dungeon type, but chances are still 50:50 that everything will go down the ****ter...
-
What are you playing now?
I actually wish that Darkest Dungeon would have gamepad support. Then I could stay on the couch while seeing my heroes getting ripped to shreds. I am too sick right now to stay in front of the pc... :/

Tablets are on a decline
I like my tablet. Not using it for any gaming, because I hate the slow touch-controls, but for everything else it is great. Right now I am planning to get rid of my old sound system and instead hooking speakers up on my tablet for all of my music needs. Also I am using it a lot to skype with my family (I don't see them in person very often anymore). Oh, and now I can be super lazy on saturdays and stay in bed while browsing silly websites.
