Funcom have a habit of having good ideas and not following through on them. The Secret World is the first time I encountered them. And to be fair the game has a story that I find really intriguing. It is a shame such a fun story is locked behind an mmo when as a single player experience it could be so, so much more.
Well Netflix is gone. Still using Disney plus cause I swapped my HBO max password for it. I guess soon I will have no streaming services on my tv at all seeing as both Disney plus and HBO are cracking down on password sharing. Shame. They had a good thing going before they all got too greedy.
Back to the high seas. It was nice while it lasted. But Gaben is right. And I havent pirated a game since he got the formula right. Netflix had it. But everyone got too greedy, created their own services splitting the products over multiple services.
It’s like Alan Wake 2. Sure I wanna play it. But until the Epic exclusive deal is over and it hits Steam, I aint gonna be playing it.
Wait. What? Is this real? Firmware and drivers behind a pay wall? Are they insane?
Feels weird too say that my wifi is being shit cause of sharks but its true!
Just flip it over to charge of course
Early Netflix was great. I stopped pirating. I guess it has been a good 10 years but it’s back to the high seas now.
Shit. That’s the entire population if the island i live on. Just gone.
Why? Why!? I am old and grumpy. Cosmetics are things you earn through game progression. Not locked behind pay walls. Oh It’S oNLy CoSmETicS BrO. Fuck you. Fuck this attitude. Fuck the never ending agreed. Fuck natural game progression. Everything is a locked behind pay walls nowadays cause of this oh its only CoSmETicS bro attitude.
Couldn’t find one when it came out. Covid happened, lost my job. Struggled financially. Finally getting back on my feet. Riding cost of living and inflation eating all my spare cash. Cant afford one now. Sigh. If only they were available at release I would have got one.
Shadow of the Colossus. The urge just hit me and I am just knocking out 3 or 4 Colossus a day. Enjoying exploring and seeing the world in hdr cause I only remember the ps3 hd remake. The ps4 hdr remake is jaw droppingly stunning to look at.
Now do Bloodborne
I just want a nice modern hatchback with an electric motor. I was so happy to hear about the c40 when it got announced cause I have a C30 now. And its not a coupe or a hatchback. Its another bloody suv. Screw these suvs. They no fun to drive. I wanna be low to the ground and zippy around corners. Not drive something with mobility of a fridge that will bore me to tears in the twisties.
For godsake. That copy used to sit on my childhood bookshelf but got lost in a move somewhere along the line.
Dark Souls 3. Well I say Dark Souls 3. Reality is its Sister Friede. Over and over and over again. Stage 3 is easy to get to. But she kicks my ass in stage 3.
This. So tired of having a discussion and some wise ass comes in and says oh I cant stand headlines with this word. So? Why share with the class? It adds nothing to the discussion besides letting the person stamp their feet in indignation while at the same time adding nothing of any value whatsoever. Congratulations. You shared an opinion that offers nothing but smug self glorification.
Finally finished Halo 2 and it was a slog. Now on to Halo 3 and straight away more fun, better movement and better gunplay than halo 2.
Finished Zero Entropy 2 and wow. Its canon in my mind. Feels like Half Life 2 Opposing Forces Episode 2 if valve had shown us the combine side. Now will 3 come? 3 is cursed so I just putting it to one side.
Finished Pony Island. Weird game. Not too sure what was going on but ok. Its off the list now.
And heroes of the storm ofc. Started storm League with a friend and we are having a blast together. Aram when I am solo.
I remember someone telling me at the start of the conflict that it would be more economically viable to keep the war on going than it would be to end it. The west has the fire power to end this conflict whenever it wants. But it wont make as much money ending it as it would prolonging it. I thought that was a very cynical view point. That was nearly 2 years ago now.
Still Heroes of the storm every day. And going through the master chief collection. Enjoyed Halo Reach. Halo Combat Evolved was fun game play with a well paced story. Halo 2 is just a slog. Such long levels. Much of it just the same section repeated because padding. Story all over the place and jumping around between characters so no real sense of cohesion. Just need to slog through it so I can start on Halo 3. Oh. I have never played Halo before so this is all new to me.
Finally gonna play the first 3 games of The Longest journey and Dreamfall. I am convinced Funcom are great story tellers but awful mmo creators. See Anarchy Online, The Secret World, Conan Exiles. Great story telling. Terrible mmos.
