Did anyone here ever play Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening that came out for Gameboy back in the 90's? That was a good game too!

Ah yes the guardian acorns and piece of power. I've played it and beaten it and always stole from shop keeper. HCBailly on YouTube did an LP of it and got the perfect ending, one where you don't die or steal and Malon turns into a seagull.

Wow! Khajiit was unaware that there was a different ending (probably because he died a bunch, lol)!

It's just a variation on the ending but a nice one if you like Malon: https://youtu.be/BGTY2-jObHs?list=PL1A924BA1459F46AF

Anybody ever play State of Decay? Khajiit played it way back on 360 but just got the "remastered" version from Steam. Fun little Zombie Apocalypse survival game.

I loved State of Decay. So fun!

Khajiit was very surprised how good it was when he played it on 360! Supposedly this one has enhanced graphics and gameplay mechanics, but honestly haven't noticed much of a difference. It includes the dlc though.

Yeah I got the remastered version on Xbox One (after playing the original on 360) purely for the dlc. The base game is still the best though, building up your base and figuring all of the different mechanics out was endlessly fun.

I just finished Dishonored 2 today, in a ghost/pacifist run.

Yep, Khajiit is a sucker for base-building! That's one of the reasons this one likes Fallout4 so much!

Well, I get to finally post an update on my progress in my gaming backlog here. Pretty significant progress, as a matter of fact.

I finished Divine Divinity Sunday night! Feels great. Clocked in at over 53 hours, which astounded me. That was in a relatively short time span, but I was having so much fun and wanted to see it through. I'm still amazed I spent only $0.89 for it.

So last night and tonight I went back to ESO finally. And I got to visit (or in my character's case, go back to) my people's homeland, Black Marsh! Although my character is supposed to be from Lilmoth, and unfortunately I doubt I will ever get to go there for ESO (Argonia for TESVI please, Bethesda).

Also played a bit more of Turok 2 the other night. And you know what? I actually was enjoying it a bit. Still not too sure about the game, but it is at least looking decent.

Thinking of also starting up System Shock sometime this week. Or I might restart System Shock 2, since I stopped playing it like a couple years ago and wasn't that far in. I might go with the original first.

Khajiit likes the way they designed Black Marsh in ESO! Love the pyramids and the aesthetic design of the Argos' weapons, armor/clothing, and decorum.

Breath of the Wild on the Switch and it's good to be back lol.

I've been playing a lot of Dark Souls 3. Whenever I think I'm done with it for now, I come back to it a short time later.

Maybe one day Khajiit will get the guts to try Dark Souls. Right now it just looks abusive to this one, lol


A game Khajiit likes to play when not on his PC or PS4 is Fallout Shelter on his phone. Just started a new vault and a Dremora showed up!*


*Khajiit just thought she looked like a Dremora and changed her last name.

I haven't had the courage to play any of the Dark Souls games, I kinda like not having to buy new controllers .

Is that the "breath of the wild" promised by the title?

It's got a steep, steep learning curve but I find it to be an immensely rewarding experience once you begin to get the hang of it.

I've watched Yahtzee's reviews of the Dark Souls game and he praises them, I think he says the third game is a good one for beginners...I might give it a look see some day.

Honestly, the Souls game's difficulty is overplayed.

Anyways, I decided to play Tales of Eternia again. Really love the magic/spell system so I'm most likely going to stick to Meredy or Keele again. Getting sick of the constant "Baiba!" from Meredy before getting the Orz Earrings though.

I also found out that someone went and translated the Skits removed from the NA version and put them on youtube. Gonna be watching them as I play, since it's only really half a Tales game without them. So far I discovered that Keele is a bigger douchebag than he appears in regular play. :V

I fired up X-Wing again. After about six tries I managed to complete the Y-Wing mission I was stuck on the last time I tried playing. Then it was smooth sailing though three missions with X and A Wings. I really, really hate those damn Y-Wings...

Yeah. They are fairly yawn inducing

Was playing Breath of the Wild on the Switch and I guess I've played for so long the JoyCons ran out of juice heh-heh-heh .

T-Fal 2.... apparently, you learn to pilot French cookware in a first-person shooter....

Oh... sorry... the title is Titanfall 2.

Nevermind

At least it's non-stick. I bet that is more aerodynamic...

Installed Morrowind last night, and made a test character. Now it's on to installing mods!

Because of course there's plenty of foreshadowing alongside the extended characterization in the skits. I know Tales of Destiny's NA release didn't have the character skits either, but this is terrible. It's literally half the game's story!

Also slightly mad they didn't voice the skits in Tales of Symphonia Chronicles in spite of getting the original voice actors back. Meh, at least they made it into the game in that case.

Getting ready for tonight.

Been playing Total War: Attila again recently. Finally tried out the Western Roman Empire - holy moly that's a tough start. A huge amount of land + very few troops + very few allies + no food.

I didn't even consider trying to hold most of it, and retreated from all provinces except Italia, Magna Graecia, Venetia, Liguria and Britannia Superior with a scorched earth policy that gave me a pretty good buffer against the barbarian hordes keen on sacking Rome. I then broke off ties with the Eastern Roman Empire, since that alliance wasn't beneficial.

The lands I abandoned around Carthage and the Sahara were quickly claimed by the Garamantians, while Britannia Inferior was claimed by the Ebdanians, who were quick to form an alliance with me against the Picts that were pressing from the north. The rest of my land is slowly being claimed by various factions, with Gaul rising as the main power.

I had a brief scare when two hordes of Ostrogoths arrived on my doorstep, but they were convinced to move on after several impressive displays of Roman defense. The Visigoths also payed us a visit, and were swiftly destroyed by my first and third legions. Currently the only faction that refuses peace is the Geats to the far north, but they're not much of a threat at the moment.

My current plan is either to push north and form a corridor to Britannia, or to reclaim Carthage to the south and take the African coast. The Britannia plan is risky but rewarding, while the Africa plan is easier but may lead to strained relations with the Eastern Romans who also want that area. I also need to send some agents out into the world and see what's going on elsewhere, and to see where the Huns are hiding.

This sounds awesome! Is it real time or turn based?

Turn based city/province/empire management, real time battles. Total War games are awesome.

Khajiit thinks he knows what his next Steam purchase will be!

As I said in another thread, I'm playing Manhunt for the first time. I believe the game is known to most, it's a 3rd person (or 1st person whichever way you prefer) stealth-based survival horror video game.

I'm impressed by the AI in this game, your enemies a.k.a. hunters are clever and their routines hard to predict, making the game very unrepetititve. Even if your main character "dies" because hunters found him, they might take a different patroling routine the next time so you can't automatically know what's going to happen.

The game is violent and was banned in several countries when it was released back in 2003 but I find gore in Fallout series more vivid than in Manhunt.

Been playing Injustice 2, its better then the first game.

It's midnight and I started playing Princess Maker 2 for no reason whatsoever.

I'm stuck giving my future magical child soldier a name. Was thinking of calling her Ronch.

That... actually sounds really interesting! Khajiit would totally make a Boudicca inspired character!

Almost at the end of Turok 2. It's been an up and down ride. The level design and map can be infuriating when you have to go back to get stuff you missed or that you couldn't get before (looking at you in particular, Primagen keys). But there are some fun moments in the gunplay and a nice variety of enemies and guns. Just got to get two more Talismans and 3 or 4 Primagen keys and then I can fight the final boss. I wouldn't say it is a bad game, but I'd rather get it over with sooner rather than later.

Also playing ESO of course, and a little bit of Rocket League.

After I finish Turok 2, I think I'll start Mirror's Edge or Divinity II next. Maybe Mirror's Edge since I hear it is pretty short. But I also would really like to start Divinity II soon after enjoying Divine Divinity so much.

Mirror's Edge is a unique type of game, its more of a First Person Platformer then a typical FPS.

I hear a full warrior daughter is pretty tricky. So far mine's like...16 years old? and is a master chef but she's trailing behind in magical combat. Fortune Teller says she'll end up either a housewife or a fortune teller herself. Apparently neither are ideal and are considered the worst neutral and magical endings, respectively. Time to invest in her magical and military education and get her out there for adventurin'! and finally beat that Magical Girl rival for more Mage reputation

SHE DID IT The first fight against her rival was the hardest (and only won cause her rival had slightly less HP than her at the end of 9 turns) but the rest of the warriors fell to her mighty magic. >:V

Huzzah!

I thought I'd fire up Star Trek Online for PS4. Nice hearing Lenard Nemoy's voice being immortalized in it.

Holy [censored] [censored] I am really starting to hate Turok 2. Backtracking to find the last few things I need before I can confront the final boss is infuriating. The level design makes it confusing to go back through, and coupled with a map system worse than Daggerfall's it is really testing my desire to finish the game. I had to stop playing for now because it is just too frustrating. I really don't understand the praise it is getting on GOG and Steam, beyond the actual remastering part (the game does actually look fantastic and run smoothly).

On the other hand, after putting Turok 2 down for the night I started up Mirror's Edge. Only 39 minutes in, but what I have played so far is really fun.

My Princess Maker 2 daughter grew up to become the Court Sorceress! One of the better two Mage endings, apparently. I guess it's a good thing she started hunting down criminals and taking names in earnest after her miraculous win in the Harvest Festival Tournament. Though maybe she shouldn't have mugged those guards out on patrol...

Also she married a knight? idk, but her patron deity was happy and I was happy and she stayed on earth instead of being taken back to heaven and the end idk what I'm playing next.

Yeah, Khajiit remembers Turok 2 being a bit tedious in the N64 days. The "Beware Oblivion..." cheat code was kind of fun for a little while though.

It's ridiculous. Very disappointing coming from the great original Turok. When I backtracked through the first game, I just went "Duh!" every time I figured out a place I missed and remembered that I was going to try to go back there. Not asking for a linear game, just not something so infuriating. Needless to say, this is going to be my only playthrough of the game when I finish it up.

But hey, Mirror's Edge has shaped up to be really good so far. A little hard to get the timing of some controls down but it is a neat concept. Glad I finally got to try this game out.

I guess I'm playing Oblivion again but idk for how long. I'm playing a Reachman murder-hobo who is uncomfortable in cities. idk I also installed Integration: The Stranded Light again to see how deep the rabbit hole really goes.

I think I am on the last chapter of Mirror's Edge, or at least somewhere near the very end. Great game, but far too short. At least it looks like it has some replay value and other stuff to do, though.

Ah yes the good old cheat. So many memories .

Turns out I was only 10 minutes away from beating Mirror's Edge last night, lol. Completed it a little bit ago, just under 5 hours total. I wish the story wasn't so short, but I liked it though.

Yep! N64 was the shiz! Khajiit had this thing called a Gameshark that basically let you mod games. It was neat because you could input codes that could change aspects of the game. For instance: in Goldeneye, one of Khajiit's favorite things to do was to change weapon characteristics more to his liking. Sadly, for a lot of games it was simply a cheat device (God mode, unlimited ammo, unlock everything, etc.).
