What are you playing now?
Been playing Armello, having fun and trying to get some of the more hard to get achievements. Last game I was playing as Brun the Oakbreaker of Clan Bear. He seems to quickly be becoming a community favourite. Clan Bear are the spellcasters of Armello, yet Brun is a mediocre caster on his own. His unique ability though is that he gains +1 Fight in the next battle for every spell cast, making him one of the stonger fighters in the game. Had a great first couple of turns getting a Conjurer follower who gives a spell card every time you cast a peril spell - perfect for Brun's limited hand size. River of Clan Wolf though was racing ahead in Prestige (the game's score), killing Banes and other Heroes. Late midgame she started to die (*coughcough*) and I put a lot of distance between us. With the end of the game imminent I had double River's prestige, thanks to an allies pact with Mercurio. With only a couple of turns left, Thane tried for a Kingslayer gamble. Being Prestige Leader, I needed the king to die of "natural" causes, so I buffed the guards. Then River killed Thane. the guards rushed her, but she managed to hold her ground. And right on the last turn, she put an arrow in the king and won... So close...

Time for a regicidal screenshot. And no, this is not from The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

It has a few balancing issues still. Luck can really turn against you and Prestige victory is the default, making some players wonder why you'd even try to go fo another type (I'd say because you always need a plan B). But you can see the love that went into it and all the characters are adorable. Barnaby "Skrewloose" the rabbit in full plate armour with his big two handed hammer for example. And I am having fun. the thing I can't show in screenshots is how great the playing cards are. They are all animated to some degree. In the trailer you ca see the evil eye card (1:16?) that actualy blinks?

It is Mercurio indeed. You can also see Zosha in-game in the Launch trailer

That's on my list of games I want to play that recently came out along with Satellite Reign and Fran Bow. It looks like a really nice board game-like game. You can play as a rat, right? Two rats. They added a second Clan Rat hero with launch. Mercurio is the main rat hero, stealing gold from his rivals and using it to play tricks on them. Zosha is the stealth hero - the idea is to stay out of sight half the game and strike from the shadows. If the game goes well, there are plans to add more heroes for all clans. I was a backer for both Armello and Satellite Reign and am very happy with both of them.

Started playing Armello again now that it has its proper release. Did a lot of work from when I was playing early access last year.

Camera control could definitley use some work, but once you are a bit into the game I find you somehow stop noticing.

Edited it down to the main points Personally I wasn't even that bothered by the re-use of maps. The whole rest of the game takes such a quality nosedive after chapter 1, the re-use of assets is the least of its problems.

Quite a few complained about that, always thought it was clear enough. The way they worded the quest made me stop at least cause I felt it was a point of no return. Different temperaments I guess. What is worse is the follow up conversation where the dozen head honcho admits to having sold you out to the Crucible Knights to use you as a distraction. For that my character would lock him up in the keep's dungeon and throw away the keep (was going to type key, but the typo illustrates the point nicely enough). They set you up and you do not even have a dialogue option to be miffed about it? That is worse than the childish tantrums the player throws in DA2.

Accidentally joined the Dozen Not a fan of some of Obsidian's writing choices. You did some mercenary work for us, congratulations you're in. Erm, no? I was just here to take your money? I'd rather die than join idiots like you?

Before I click "like", is that a good or bad thing?

September start of October is still good. Then from April onward is also great. April is a great time because you see green and flowers. Sometime in May the archeological sites for example are cleared to prevent fire hazards. That can mean that the same location has a completly different atmosphere. And I'd wager that the green scene is closer to the historical truth than the sterile one the archeologists create in the high season.

Arguing with a certain online hotel reservation site thingie. The name of the site in question has two parts. First part: a miniature giant space hamster. Second part: a clash of that is the tile of the second book of A Song of Ice and Fire. I am increasingly displeased and disconcerted with them. It seems that they are knowingly mismanaging customer's credit card information. So beginning to think that I should warn friends not to use that site.

I just noticed someone called Rosveen posting on the forum. Which made me wonder if they are related to Rosbjerg. And following that train of thought, If Rosbjerg had a cute cousin and I dated her, would I need to change my username to Roskathi?
