Hawke64 Posted May 25, 2019 Posted May 25, 2019 Furi The tutorial. Finally purchased the soundtrack (GOG) and decided to replay the game. It went quite well - I've reached the Song in one session. Not sure, if I should go for the Burst, though. Her last bullet-hell sequence was hard to play for wrong reasons (too bright background, non-45-degree attack angles, so I had to switch the control scheme mid-battle). 3
LittleArmadillo0 Posted May 25, 2019 Posted May 25, 2019 Headed back over to the Santa Monica Pier to do a side quest added in the plus patch. I never explored this part of the pier. It's got a nice view with the rain. 2
Hawke64 Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Furi This is the semi-secret ending, which was achieved accidentally by many. I've lost to her twice and it is going to eat me up inside for several hours. 1

melkathi Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 It had felt a bit weird to me that the Giovanni got such a major role in the game. Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).
Keyrock Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 (edited) Work on my tower is complete, the outer shell, anyway: I also built a platform where I put a Shrine of Set. It's reachable with a horizontal elevator: The elevator doesn't line up perfectly on the shrine side, but it's pretty dang close and it works. You sort of have to guess on the placement a bit on one of the 2 sides of the elevator, so it's very hard to get it perfect. Here's the whole complex from below: I had to make a bunch of design compromises along the way because structural integrity is a thing in this game and I was definitely pushing the limits. I originally planned to have the horizontal elevator go directly from the fortress to the shrine platform, but I couldn't build the shrine platform out from the cliff face far enough to make the elevator line up, so I made a little walkway that goes around the waterfall. Next up I'll build a proper crafting area and thrall housing on top of the cliff, then I'll add a wall around the perimeter, but that can wait for now. The thralls can live in the fortress and tower for the time being. I'm itching to do some adventuring before I resume construction.

Love the waterfall, need to get me my own waterfall now, dang it! I imagine structural integrity must have been a pain, especially for the lower part that hangs from the cliff. I can't really build that way since I have The Purge on, and when they can't get to your base normally they will just spawn inside, which I'd rather avoid... And I recognize the location now, one my of picked building spots was actually on those cliffs you built against, near that broken statue a tad to the west, it has some bridges over cliffs on the north side that seemed promising to build a castle against, with a great view from the side you built against. Kinda curious as to the view from your tower now

Keyrock Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 I finally hit lev 50 and crafted Stygian soldier armor: Normally, I'd use the helmet hider station from a mod I'm using to make the helmet invisible, but the helmet on this gear is just too badass to not show off. I'm not yet sure if I'm going to mess with the color scheme. This will be my desert and jungle gear going forward, while my Hykarian raider armor will remain my cold weather gear. 3 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks
LittleArmadillo0 Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 That looks sickening! I looks very similar to a khepresh the crown of war. 2
Keyrock Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 Stygians were very obviously patterned after ancient Egyptians by Robert E Howard, so the resemblance is definitely intentional. RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks
marelooke Posted May 30, 2019 Posted May 30, 2019 (edited) Lara's first tomb For the glory of Set! That was one badly timed sandstorm, had to scramble to get the mask on without getting chomped to death... Still working on Murloc Castle... (that's also about the furthest I can go away before draw distance starts kicking in) Reducing their HP doesn't necessarily make bosses any less nasty, one mistake too many and, well, let's just say that's not an NPC corpse there...

Gorth Posted May 30, 2019 Posted May 30, 2019 Guild Wars 2 My Charr warrior wielding his giant chainsword... gettting ready for action. The eye next to him attracted some undead friends outside the camera view One of those insanely long (and tall!) jumping puzzles. I eventually made it all the way up there New map ("Dragonfall") and dailies and events and masteries and mounts added with the latest living world installment "War Eternal". People are all the world map these days, scrambling for the bits and pieces to get the new flying mount Dragonfall has 3 main areas, which is something the Elder Dragon tore out of the mist when plummeting back to the "real" world again. Each domain themed around one of The Six (Grenth - god of the Dead, Balthazar - god of Fire and War and Melandru - goddess of Nature) 3 “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

LittleArmadillo0 Posted May 31, 2019 Posted May 31, 2019 Now I head to the Golden Temple to face my greatest enemy. An enemy so hard I couldn't finish the game. I finally did it! I was able to open the god damned door! 4
Hawke64 Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 Neverwinter Nights 2: Storm of Zehir One of the Greycloaks wields only a sword, the other only a shield. I can't guess why. Neverwinter at night. Only one district was open in the expansion, though. Zacarian defeated. Somehow the battle was much harder, than the final boss of the expansion. The dead companion is my paladin. Very glad that there was an infiltration mission, where I could use all abilities of my MC. The Herald of Zehir and the other yuan-ti (forgot his name) defeated. The warlock kept damaging himself for some reason after the battle ended. On an unrelated note, is the quality of the first two images different from the rest (uploaded to the forum vs imgur)? 3
ShadySands Posted June 2, 2019 Posted June 2, 2019 It's weird seeing the game from that perspective, like a different game, Free games updated 3/4/21
