Popular Post SyIaris Posted October 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2021 Two done this month, form is filled in. Meant to get back around to Danganronpa THH, Resident Evil 5, or Lollipop Chainsaw, but did not. I'm a coward. Zombie Army Trilogy Difficult for someone prone to sniping since the enemies are psychic and know exactly where you are, but it's pretty fun to go mowing through mobs of zombies and come out triumphant. The difficulty seems pretty fair, aside from one boss stage we couldn't quite work out. Enjoyable game, little hesitant to play ZA4 with the crazy DLC... Wasn't planned, but I love how it should be sitting right under its non-bloody twin in the streak challenge. Plague Inc: Evolved Re-re-100%'d, thanks to another sneaky DLC release. Still fun, and one of the few games I keep installed after finishing. @Gretchen27 The % entry for this is likely to be off since it just released today-ish. Feel free to leave it out entirely. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JayDeLosDioses Posted October 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2021 I've took a break from my Dark Souls 2 NG++ run for the final spells and managed to get another game done for this month. Platinumed GTA San Andreas (the ps4 port) earlier today. Had some moments that made me tilt quite a bit during the game, but it's still one of the best games imo, I'm looking forward to playing the trilogy again when the remastered versions are released. But back to SA: What's really tilting for some missions are the controls - you can only shoot in front of you while riding a bike, so in a car chase you have to drive alongside - look to any side with R2 or L2, and then shoot either with O or L1. There's also no checkpoints, so if you tried to kill someone for a few minutes, then failed - it's "fun". I also struggled with the Taxi fares, and they made me rage quit the game a long long time ago. But manged them okay this time. I'll get Dark Souls 2 done next month, it's not much left to do. The stupid Lava boss and running to the castle to buy the remaining stuff. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JayDeLosDioses Posted November 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) Sorry for the double post, but there's too much I want to say about Dark Souls 2 for an edit. Dark Souls 2 was the first FromSoftware game I've ever played, I remember that one of my best friends said he found this awesome game, I should try it out. So I did - as a mage - while skipping the tutorial area. I had no idea how to lock the camera, I've free aimed my way to the Last Giant and lost a ton of times, so I've quit saying "Skyrim is way better than this shit." Oh boy, I never was so wrong again. I came back a few months later, this time playing coop with my friend, and not as a mage. Played the tutorial, read the message "Press R3 to lock onto an enemy" and my mind was blown. The whole game changed. We've played through the whole game, finished the story while more or less ignoring all NPC quests... we had a thing going that whenever we meet a new NPC, a coin flip would decide about Dead or Alive. I've started a few platinum runs on the good old PS3 after that, but never finished a whole run, always stopped during cleanup. Time went on, the PS4 remake was released and we played that one as well, this time completing the side quests, but then stopped during the third DLC, it's the one you can't play coop. Not a problem for me, I'd say that I've managed to become quite good in Dark Souls. I've learned to parry, played PvP, finished the story a few more times with different builds, but I've never went ahead and got all the different schools of magic done. There's this problem with Dark Souls 2 ... it's always so ... I don't know how to put into words, it's so nearly good. I know it had a troubled development and they've changed directors during that. There's so many little things that happenend in both the original release and the remake that just aren't on the typical level you'd expect. Areas that don't fit together, Earthern Peak and Iron Keep is the perfect example for that. Going up a mill, just to unlock an elevator that goes even higher up to a castle that's not supposed to be in the sky. Bad boss design, there's 41 bosses (32 without DLC) in the game, and from the top of my head, there's three that I enjoy fighing. Sir Alonne, Fume Knight, Burnt Ivory King - all of which are DLC bosses. Most of the bosses are generic big knights in armor or "animal" like bosses. Agility - there's this stat that's only used in DS2, the higher your agility stat is, the more i-frames you get when rolling, can drink your Estus faster, block faster... it's crap. It's faster to use Lifegems than drink Estus in the early game. There's a bug in the Scholar of the First Sin edition that halves the durability of everything. Because they've changed the game from 30FPS to 60FPS, every time you're weapon connects with something it counts as two hits, not for damage, that's calculated correctly, but it basicly cuts the durability of any weapon in half. It's saying a lot, that I've finished DS3, DS1, Demon's Souls, Sekiro and Bloodborne before the very first game I've played in this genre. Anyways, it was a longer text than I thought it would be. One more month to go for this year! Edited November 2, 2021 by JayDeLosDioses 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which may explain why I missed Psy-Tychist, those first days of a new month usually have overlaps from the previous. 3 hours ago, RoadRunner_005 said: I'd like to join in on this event.

poetic_justice_ Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Geez, I need an event like this. Unfortunately, much of my backlog is related to platinum-breaking ultra-rare trophies. However, if I can chip away at a game a month, that's better than nothing. The time limit is six months or more since last earning a trophy? October: After 7 years, 10 months, I finally platinumed Medal of Honor Warfighter. Thanks to everyone who helped. November: I restarted Brain Challenge. This will take months to complete. Not counting the 24 0% games, the 4 completely frozen-due-to-server-closure games, and the 7 games that can never be 100% completed due to server closure, this is where I stand: PS3 - 45 titles PS4 - 14 titles Some games, like Marvel Pinball, Dying Light, and Street Fighter IV I will most likely never complete. I've already spent hours of frustration on certain trophies, like Parkour Fever, Bozak Horde, and various pinball tables. However, there are others I want to at least try.

Popular Post JayDeLosDioses Posted November 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2021 Completion numero dos for this month. Assassins Creed Valhalla is back at 100%. I think it's kinda funny, that they call the DLC "Mastery mode" and it's probably the most buggy thing I can remember Ubisoft releasing. Also, a lot of the challenges aren't "How good can you use our pre-made build in situation XY", instead they are "How many enemies can burn themselves" Then I had to reset a few of my skills, because if you don't you can't complete optional stuff that was released MONTHS after the game Really looking forward to another year of DLC for this pile of garbage. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dang, wow. Thanks for posting this, Jay. I was looking forward to getting a PS5 before playing this, as Ubisoft burned almost all its bridges with me for how they handled Division 2. 1. I paid full price for the Ultimate Edition with Season Pass at launch, $100 US. A year or two later, Ubisoft released Warlords of New York, which they had been planning all along but didn't include with the ultimate edition. Warlords required a separate purchase of $25. 2. The Operation Dark Hours raid had no matchmaking upon release and was practically unwinnable on console. In two months, only two hundred nineteen players worldwide were able to finish. That was for both PS4 and Xbox combined. Hundreds of players complained to Ubisoft, asking for the raid to be patched. Massive Entertainment and Ubisoft's response was an arrogant, "Get good. We're fine with the raid as it is." After two months of infuriated gamers protesting, Ubisoft finally caved and adjusted the difficulty. By that point, the damage had been done. I would guess over 70% of Division 2 console gamers said, "F- this, we're done" and left the title completely. 3. The loot/gear system was an indecipherable mess for at least 18 months. I spent hours creating spreadsheets and researching online to find out which drops were good for what builds. The end-game loot was hopelessly complicated. The loot system now is what the game needed to be at launch. 4. Data miners determined the drop rate for God-tier rolls was 0.02%. Players could literally spend thousands of hours grinding for a particular weapon with particular stats before finally having one drop. 5. Ubisoft totally destroyed the cosmetic portion of Division 2 with microtransaction greed. In The Division 1, players could break items down for credit that could be purchase cosmetics they didn't own. While playing the the game to 100%, I acquired most of the cosmetics in the natural course of play. In Division 2, Ubisoft completely destroyed the loot roll system for cosmetics. When I first started playing the game, there were 115 items I could roll for. After 50 rolls, I had acquired less than 25 unique items, as over half my rolls were duplicate items I already possessed. The items I broke down for store credits were around 25% of what was needed to get another item, whereas in Division 1 they were closer to 30-50%. Ubisoft charged real money for players to get skins, and they weren't cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayDeLosDioses Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 DLC month continues This time it's Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor. I've never played the Bright Lord DLC, and I've struggled with the Hunt of the Mistress trophy before leaving the game again. BUT, I've honestly feel like I've never played a game better than the Test of the Wild this time. Everything just worked... in the end I had 9 minutes spare. In the second try that is, my first try failed with a time of 40:25 (the time limit is 40:00). I didn't use the backup strat mentioned in the guide, but I did quit out to reset the Graug baits quite a lot. With less than 2 minutes time for every captain and Warchief, killing them with combat finishers isn't really an option. Thankfully most of the Warchiefs have bodyguards, that's an important time saver. If you can't kill most of them during Riots the challenge is impossible I believe. 17 hours ago, poetic_justice_ said: Dang, wow. Thanks for posting this, Jay.

And maybe I just had bad luck with how many people in the challenges killed themselves. You'll need patience for the mastery stuff, that's for sure. Not quite sure if I will do another game this month, or if I'm already checking out for November. Time will tell I guess. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor has been sitting at 97% on my profile for years thanks to the two trophies you mentioned. Wow, 9 minutes to spare? Holy cow. I remember rage quitting on my last attempt two years ago when I was putting the sword to the last target enemy at 39:55. The extended animation for the kill put me at 40:02. The attempt did not count. For the other, I didn't think about quitting out to reset the Graug bait. I made the mistake of starting riots in the upper right-hand corner of the map. The warchiefs and captains spawned in riots, but navigating that castle maze with the Graug was too cumbersome. Some targets became terrified, ran faster than I could, and hid in narrow and elevated walkways where the Graug couldn't reach. I appreciate the clarification on Valhalla.

Last week was hectic at work while dealing with a sick dog. By the weekend she took a turn for the worst, it's still touch & go at the moment. & since it's not typical to be this late with the update, I wanted to let you all know the reason. Continue clearing off those games as usual. I'll catch it up when there's less on my shoulders. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
