I got Bloodborne downloading on my PS4. It will be my first taste of the Dark Soulish type games.

Lately Khajiit has been spending his gaming time with ESO and Total War: Attila.

I need to get back into TESO.

Why, yes, you do.

Okay I tried Bloodborne and that game is crap to put it politely. I understand these Dark Souls type games are suppose to be hard but Bloodborne doesn't even give you a melee weapon to start with.

Edit: Well I tried to give it a second chance and did managed to make SOME leeway but in the end Bloodborne just isn't for me.

Turns out? Not very hard since I remembered how to fight him. Went down on the first try.

Anyway, this happened. Don't touch me.

All that's left is to collect all the rings, which need you to go through NG++ almost to the end. Eh...I'll save that for later.

Instead I decided to play Enderal for a bit. I'm still thinking Oblivion with an old character since I couldn't get into a new one, but I wanted to play a bit of the former.

I'm...honestly disappointed that even after several patches some of the subtitles don't match the dialogue, which is admittedly somewhat clunky but I'm willing to give that a pass since it's translated from German.

I gotta find out how much things have changed before I get too into it. Before it was pointless increasing the crafting skills past 50, for example.

Kingdom Come Deliverance Patch 1.3 looks to be available, purportedly fixing quite a few glitches. I've not yet downloaded it. Might do so overnight...depending on size. Otherwise, I'm still playing Mashinky, though not as strenuously as I once did.

I decided to play the Tomb Raider reboot game on the PS4. Not sure why I stopped playing it.

I have Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider. I only played a little bit of them as well. Though I am sure some day I will get back to them.

The first Tomb Raider game I played was Tomb Raider Legends and enjoyed it. Underworld I didn't care for as it had WAY to much platforming and little action. The reboot I'm enjoying and haven't played Rise of the Tomb Raider yet.
OH and the remake of the first Tomb Raider game.

Khajiit played Tomb Raider 2 a little bit waaaay back in the original PlayStation days, but never got into it enough to finish that game.

I'm playing Paladins and regardless what people may say about it-IT is an Overwatch clone though recent updates has started to make it better then Overwatch shockingly enough.

Has anyone played Attack of the Earthlings? It looks like fun. Like X-Com from the side of the aliens.

I'm playing:
Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest
Legend of Zelda A Link to the Past
Super Metroid all on the 3DS.

Just finished up a second playthrough of Portal 2 earlier today, as this past week I suddenly had the itch for testing to play it again. I am also playing through Mirror's Edge for the second time. Haven't had the desire to go through my backlog in my play time lately.

TIL that it's Oblivion's birthday and I have been slowly losing interest. Part of that is because the mods I have installed are bugging out--specifically Guild Advancement.

I wasn't going to do the Mages Guild quest past getting into the Arcane University, but I had it installed for other characters and I'm mad that the Certification quest never activated and needed to be done via console. (You need to be certified of being at Apprentice level in all schools of magic before you actually get the rank of Apprentice and gain access to the AU)

So idk. I've been playing Fable 2 again when I don't feel like playing Oblivion. Happy birthday, game that got me into The Elder Scrolls.

They aren’t saying anything about it on Beth.net either. That’s kind of sad.

Still playing FFXIV for the most part, with a little bit of Total War or Warframe from time to time.

The most recent new game I've played is Vermintide 2 (beta). Very enjoyable hack and slash horde mode shenanigans set in the world of Warhammer Fantasy. Very much geared towards multiplayer, unfortunately, but perfectly doable on single player (at which time your allies are replaced by bots, with decent enough AI).

Felt a little bit grindy at first, but with randomised enemy spawns you never feel as if you're repeating yourself or treading old ground. This can also be a bad thing though if several very tough enemies spawn consecutively. The combat is the focus and strength of the game, with powerful melee and ranged attacks, though I thought the Flame Wizard's magic felt a little bit weaker than one would like.

The characters themselves are also fairly decent. A good mix of races/genders/roles though they repeat voice lines in combat so often that you'll likely get sick of hearing them after a few hours.

Haven't actually got around to downloading the full game yet, but I will...eventually...probably...

Got a Nintendo Switch and debated on wither I should buy Zelda again or Skyrim....I bought Skyrim.

A portable Skyrim would be kind of awesome. Only problem is no mods

I've never been a huge fan of mods but now I have a portable Skyrim .

No mods hunh? Probably better off. Khajiit likes using mods a lot, some of them really add to a given game. Sometimes though, this one finds that he has gone too far with mods and he spends so much time tweaking mods that he doesn’t actually play the game

Played a bit of Skyrim, and the graphics are almost PC Steam sharp, not a huge fan of using the motion controls so I'll stick to the traditional control scheme. Next game to get Zelda and maybe Doom but definitely Splatoon 2.

Unable to ignore the call any longer, Khajiit has started a new character in Vampire: The Masquerade- Bloodlines. This will be this one’s first genuine attempt at playing a Malkavian character: a female named Brigitte. Looking forward to some fun (if a bit insane) times!

Malks are the most fun character in the game and in my humble opinion the most useable one. Obfuscate and Vision of Death? Sign me down up!


But ehh... Please don't make me play it again

Ok Khajiit will not hold gun to your head

Thanks. I've already played it through five times; two times with a Malk

Khajiit is curious about a Nosferatu run, but it just seems like a headache, not being able to be seen and all that.

Yeah, I don't think I would enjoy that. Of course, you have to be able to talk to quest-specific characters like the guard on the boat and Kilpatrick. But having to skulk in the shadows and hide for eveybody else would just be a bother.

Yeah, that’s Khajiit’s thinking. The Ventrue and Tremere runs were fun from what this one remembers.

Tremere is fun due to their blood magics, but I really didn't like the model of the character.

And here I was thinking it was one of the better ones (for females anyway)! My poor Brigitte is ridiculous, lol (which I guess is perfect for Malkavians). I’ll be very glad when I can get a change of clothes for her, at least.

And as always, because this is the internet any opinion that differs from mine is automatically wrong



Kidding I'll stay tuned for any update on Khajiit's Malk. I may not want to play the game again but I sure don't mind following Khajiit's progress

Well in that case, we just finished the “Explosive Beginnings” quest and blew up a Sabbat warehouse. We also got an experience bonus for managing to set the astrolite without slaughtering anyone (which seems a silly thing to get an xp bonus for considering anyone in or around the warehouse will be killed in the explosion, but hey, extra xp is extra xp). Also, because Brigitte is not particularly persuasive in the proper sense, Jeannette is now the sole baron of Santa Monica (sadly, the sisters could not reconcile their differences ).

I actually managed to get the sisters to get along on my very first run, didn't even know it was possible


Is Khajiit spamming Obfuscate yet?

Not especially. We used it once in the warehouse level (the courtyard with the two thugs), and maybe once in the beach house. Most of the time, our standard sneak skill is sufficient. Now Bloodbuff is a different story. I’ve had to use it in the fights against Stanley Gimble and the Blood Guardian in Gallery Noir, not to mention all the lockpick situations.

I'll give you one guess .

What's Khajiit's favourite main area of the game?


I'm gonna say.... Tetris?

Tetris Breath of the Wild .

Like main hub or mission area?

I was thinking main hub.

Well, Khajiit has a soft spot for Santa Monica, since it is the first area you get to explore. Spend a lot of time there. Honestly though, it’s been so long since this one played through the game that he doesn’t remember much of the later hubs. Will probably be able to let you know after we revisit those last locations. Will say the Ocean House is one of Khajiit’s favorite mission locations. Atmosphere is masterfully done there.

We are currently working on getting the sarcophagus for LaCroix after a fun romp through the mansion turned insane asylum of Dr. Grout. Even though the whispers are warning us not too

My favourite area is Chinatown, hands wings down. Loved it as soon as I got there and I didn't even have to enter the area proper. Ocean House only worked for me first time around, on every playthrough later on it was just a chore


Grout's mansion is awesome! A bit repetitive, but awesome fun! Mostly because of no head monsters

No head monsters?

*edit* oh I see. No “head monsters”.

This one feels like he probably liked Chinatown too. Downtown, don’t care much for it. Hollywood was ok from what this one can remember. Has the neat cemetery there.

Hollywood was the worst for me, didn't like it at all. And the MQ with the tape and all that stuff really hurt the game for me. I reckon it's one reason I loved Chinatown so much; none of that stuff anymore! Would have liked it anyway though


Downtown was cool because it had Fat Larry!

Lol, it’s hilarious he calls Brigitte “Baby Girl” when she could totally kick his ass!

Also, forgot to mention that we beat down Russian goons for Confession club owner Venus Dare, put an end to a vampire cult spreading a virus to the human population in hopes of bringing about an apocalypse, and killed a mysterious “Asian vampire” spy for Bertram Tung.

Heh, Khajiit just discovered that Brigitte missed out on getting the new apartment from LaCroix, which this one believes actually suits her character better. The one in Santa Monica is definitely more her style!

In need of a napkin... or 5

Hmm, I believe Khajiit did a Boo here. Both places can't suit her better, surely


Nice pixies! The one of the mansion was great
