It's quite good. I really like the spell system, basically you're gonna create any spell you use that you didn't get with character creation.

You find signs, you can increase duration, damage, area effect, etc. It makes the skill requirement of the spell higher the more mods you add, so you gotta decide which are most important.

At first that game (Poker Night at Inventory 2) was hard to me but with lots of practice I got much better at it. I was finally able to win enough tournaments to unlock most of the trophies and all of the different tables and card designs.

Fun little cheap game but that robot b*tch who oversaw the hands and dealt the cards too, iirc, really annoyed the hell out of me sometimes.

Fallout 4 goty. Base game is better than I remembered and dlc is good from what I've heard.

Never understood why so many people shit on it whenever it gets brought up.

Traitor Lord was a pain in a butt for a mainline boss. I understand they buffed him up because he used to be a pushover, think they went a little bit overboard. I read people took 50 tries to beat him, who breezed through some Dream bosses.

I took about five-six tries total myself. Shape of Unn made a huge difference.

Poor Cloth.

So think I've been up and down Queens Garden now, even got the grub worm thing and love key. Still not sure where to take the delicate flower. Best guess is this casket looking thing where all the hoppers, but I doubt it.

Traitor Lord is ez pz once you can phase through his shockwave attack.

Most of the You Tube videos I've seen of people bashing it are longtime Fallout fans who're basically arguing that it sucks as an RPG (which is what Fallout is supposed to be about) while being a decent or at least half-decent shooter.

Iow, they think it's a decent game but sucks as a Fallout game, or at least what a Fallout game is supposed to be.

Yeah, he's pretty readable. His body length is a problem if you misread him at all, and don't dash all the way through.

Shape of Uun just makes it easier. Wish I'd used it sooner, you can practically heal whenever you want.

Gonna bring it in against Gray Zote.

That's Glado's thing, being an annoying mad scientist from the Portal Games. Promised you cake in the first one, and you never get the cake.

I'd recommend both Portal games, really enjoyed playing through the first one during a major snowstorm when you couldn't go out anywhere.

No More Heroes Remastered on Switch, solid game, but nothing mind-blowing. Just a solid time and reasonably funny humor.

Are they on the PS3? If so, I'll take a look at them in the Playstation store.

Yeah, they're both on ps3. I think 1 is included in the "The Orange Box".

Alright, I'll check it out later.

Hopefully there is a trial version so I can try it out first.

Should also run on any pc or laptop these days, if you want that route. I played 1 on a 10-12 year old laptop and it was fine with a bit of lag.

U guys do the recent windows update? It legit f*cked my PC up, games that worked just didn't work.

I had to restart a bunch of services to get my PC back to it's prior operating power.

Any chance you know what the windows update was? or the number of it?

Well i updated on the 5th and these are all I see:

Those updates are about a month old. I have 9311 and I didn't notice anything strange.

Uninstall the update and see if that fixes the issue.

It speaks to the funky update system. Why did I just get notified if it's a month old?

Anyways I did fix it without uninstalling. I opened up task manager, went to the "services" tab, and essentially restarted anything that was already "running". I went through every one cuz I didn't know what had been impacted.

And now it's back to working properly and the updates are still here.

Star Trek Online. Every time I feel like I won't get back to it, I inevitably get sucked back in. Yes, I know the people running it are scumbags. Yes, the microtransactions (hah, micro) can be ridiculous. Even some of the aesthetics are kinda borked. It's still arguably the best Star Trek game even remotely available at the moment, with a ship selection that puts older games to shame. And so much customisation.

Are fleet battles any fun with lower tier ships?

I honestly don't know. I do know that there was a decent section of the community that would get lower tier ships, put tier 6 gear on them and run them in TFOs, so it is possible. I just don't know how fun it is.

I have run single player missions at level 65 with a specced level 40 ship and been able to complete them, though, so maybe that would interest you?
