HAHA I didn't carry you, you held your own pal. Appreciate you offering to help me, it was a blast!!

I'd do it again anytime, the dlc might be mediocre at best, but our talk was fun ? (but your dog scared me a few times  ?)

It was actually the first time I had the guts to use the voice chat with one of my boosting/coop partners since I'm pretty shy ?. (And my English isn't the best)

 

If anyone else is thinking about doing the gold medals I'm happy to help aswell. I still need to grind out the 5000 kills.

Damn @freddie1989 I didn't even get voice chat with all of our Borderlands sessions! ? and @JayDeLosDioses we don't have to speak English, my memory of high school German (20+ years ago) are the German numbers, letters, and how to ask "Wo ist das Krankenhaus?"

But our Borderlands sessions are pretty much the first thing I do if you're available, I've got an alarm set for them so I don't oversleep one  

But I'll see what I can do for you ^_^, who doesn't like listening to someone eating unhealthy leftovers for breakfast

I have the spring challenge post typed up (most of it is just copy and paste from summer with a few alterations), but I won't post it until January 31 or February 1.

[JayDeLosDioses]

It's over, it's finally over. I've finished Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2.

There's one more Lego game on my console that I'm probably doing in the spring challenge, but I'm staying away from them afterwards.

 

If you ever see me adding something Lego... that isn't Lego Marvel Avengers slap me as hard as you can please

A little update.I'm at 34% in AC3 Remastered. I slowed way down because I was pretty damn sick for over a week. Still recovering a little (lingering cough+still tired easily). Never been sick that long before. It was pretty rough.

Hope you recover completely soon. Health is wealth after all, don't push yourself too hard. 

 

As an aside, I see you got that Sekiro plat awhile ago. I'm going through that game right now and UGH some of these timings for unblockables got me frustrated lol.

That game was really hard for me lol. Just gotta keep going at it.

Just a quick update to say two things. First is that I got the last of the medals I was missing which I'm done with Batman for the foreseeable future. Second is that I'm using another switch on Outlast 2 and substituting in Watch Dogs.

 

Batman: Arkham Asylum (PS4): 100%

Batman: Arkham City (PS4): 94%100%

Brave: 0%

Caveman Warriors: 100%
Chroma Squad: 100%

Detroit: Become Human: 100%
Fear Effect Sedna: 100%

Rayman Origins (PS3): 100%

The Coma: Recut: 100%

Outlast 2: 52% Watch Dogs (PS4): 0%

 

 

I hate to do it, but the looming stress of Outlast 2's Nightmare mode with no batteries is still keeping me away from it. I already didn't like the game and I would rather not go through that right now, and I would like a chance to finish my list before it ends. This also give me a chance to play one of the games I just bought DLC for and something that has been sitting on my shelve for a while now. I don't like the idea of co-op trophies, but I should be fine for most of it. Either way, I have 3 more swaps if I don't like it, and I could always play Horizon: Zero Dawn. 

[freddie1989]

Finally some form of update from me!!

 

Finished Far Cry 5 after some plonker decided a trophy for killing 5,000 zombies was a good idea so I left the tractor doing the work whilst I watched Ray Donovan!

 

Huge shout out once again to @JayDeLosDioses for helping me finish the pitches and the laughs along the way.

 

Next up on this I am not entirely sure. I can't be bothered with 2 more Zombi playthroughs right now, MK X is a huge grind and nothing else is close so minimal progress to be had. Looking forward to the next challenge now which will include some new games and some carried over ones. I have finished 5 during this and made good progress on several others so I am happy with that.

 

The Surge 7%

Watch Dogs 100%

Far Cry 5 92% - 100%

Metro 2033 Redux 0%

Finished up Seek Hearts which was definitely a fun Kemco game.  I'd definitely add it to my recommended list because it had a neat story that kept me wanting to play and I really liked the characters.  The story reminded me a bit of Revenant Saga, but with some different turns, so definitely a very enjoyable plot overall with fun character interactions once you dig into it a bit.  I also liked how the even some of the NPCs and antagonists had interesting personalities too.  For how short of a game it was, they did a great job packing in a good story, fun characters and interesting worldbuilding.  If anything I was kind of sad that it was over because I really enjoyed it

[Fnee2000]

First Update of the New Year...

 

Been a bit late in getting this up, but here it is. I was able to get a few games crossed off my list since the last update I posted before the start of 2020. I started the new year off with a Lego game that has been on my unfinished backlog for over 7 years. That Lego game was Lego The Lord of the Rings. It wasn't as long as I thought it was going to be with all of the back tracking you had to do to complete the quests within the game. The next game from my list I cleared up was also from my unfinished backlog. That game was South Park : The Stick of Truth on PS3. It had remained unfinished for nearly 6 years. I never realized just how unoptimized the PS 3 version was until I played it and had several frame rate issues. It could have also just been my digital version of the game. However, the game is still quite fun to play and funny to boot. The latest game I completed from my list was Life is Strange 2. My goodness did that poor kid go through hell during my playthrough. Maybe I just made poor decisions, but he was always getting beat up.

 

I am currently working on Far Cry 3 to try and clear that off of my list. That is also a game from my unfinished backlog. Been on there for over 7 years.

 

That is all I have for now. My updated list is below...

Dole out the fire-resistant armour and let the dragon chew on Alistair while everyone else pokes it in the bum? That's what I did.

No, put fire crystals for defense and ice for offense on Shale and activated its Stoneheart ability. The dragon almost always focused on it and let the others attack at range. Mainly controlled Wynne to let her heal and use Cone of Cold.

I'm unlikely to use them all, but last few updates I've said "X/7".

What happened?

• Final Fantasy XV is finally done 100%.
  • Smacked the Adamantoise today. Was fun.
  • I really enjoyed Comrades and can everyone just give one advice: Use this guide on gamefaqs >> Final Fantasy XV - Multiplayer Expansion: Comrades Walkthrough & Guide - PlayStation 4 - By Die - GameFAQs
    • This guide really covers everything there is about to know about FF XV Comrades (Maingame and Standalone)
    • As the author has written in it: Start on Comrades 1.0.0 (Which is FF XV patch level 1.18) >> Farm mats while using benefical glitches [1/2]  which are not present in Comrades 1.2.0 (Which is FF XV patch level 1.23) >> Finish Comrades 1.0.0 storyline >> Update to Comrades 1.2.0 (Which is FF XV patch level 1.23) >> Do some more farming/crafting to end "ueber" >> Finish Comrades 1.2.0 storyline >> Import your save to Comrades Standalone ==> Profit.
• Also I add Final Fantasy XV Multiplayer: Comrades (Standalone version of Comrades which was included in the FF XV maingame) because I had so much fun with the old maingame version of FF XV Comrades.
  • Also some trophies autopop because the characters and the process is carried over from the old Comrades version of the maingame.

 

Have fun people!

Sorry, you're right. 

 

@HaserPL It's seven swaps, two drops. My mistake.

[JayDeLosDioses]

I have to admit, playing with @freddie1989 sparked something in me ... I've had way more fun doing the plat for Far Cry 5 today than I had getting back into AC Revelations. The tractor is currently grinding kills for me

I'm actually playing with the thought of getting New Dawn next instead of Black Flag.

I kinda like Jared Leto (I know it's not him, but Joseph looks similiar imo) as the villain - not as good as Vaas but way better than Pagan Min

 

If only the coop and endings weren't so messed up Far Cry 5 would be such an awesome game
