I've restarted my Nintendo Online subscription and my friend group started playing Animal Crossing again, so we've been trying to complete things we hadn't completed before. Also I do turnips.

It's very leisurely and more accessible as far as time goes, but rarely have time to play anything now.

I'll give you the PG version of the synopsis.:joker:

It's about this Nobelwoman called Brandy Bellotto (I hope that I've spelt that correctly) who gets abducted by this other woman called Elena at a Dinner Party.

Brandy wakes up in a strange room, and in the middle of the room is a Mirror (which Elena enters and exits that room that Brandy is in through the Mirror) and when Elena shows up in the room to taunt Brandy (including 18+ content) Elena acts like herself and Brandy knew each other years ago.

And basically in this Visual Novel, the player has to fight off Elena's psychological mind games that she's trying to do to Brandy.

For what it is it's actually not that bad tbh, Elena in particular is a big selling point imo.

Jesus Christ! This Game's normal ending was not what I was expecting.:joker:

Post the GL experience of Fallen Girl - Black Rose And The Fire Of Desire, I tried out two different Games.

God Of War 2018 - I only did a few hours of this as it bored the living daylights out of me, seriously there was more depth in a puddle, than what I got from this Game.

Even Kratos was boring, I couldn't believe it when I disliked everything about the Game nearly.

And my next Game was....


Final Fantasy X - Now this Game went a lot better for me than God Of War 2018 (thanks to the plot and characters actually being interesting and well written.) But I still had my flaws with the Game.

My biggest two were.

1. Not being able to skip cutscenes when you've been killed in a boss fight, and you just want to quickly have another rematch with the boss fight, but instead you're having to go through monologues that you've already experienced. In particular it broke me on the final boss as I am not going through all of what that entails, just to have my rematch with the final boss.

2. The battle system just gets too grindy and annoying to use by the end of the Game.

The story though is really strong, it's FFX's saving grace imo.

Nicky91 08-10-2024 08:21 AM

i've began with a new game for Fallout 4

this time as the male character, which i named Rick Grant (good choice of name for someone with a military background i think)


i needed to start over, since i made some messes in my previous saves LOL, i made Nick Valentine disappear (i had him at Far Harbor at Longfellow's Cabin but due to updates i had to reinstall those add-ons and start over and Nick kinda disappeared into nothingness haha some weird glitch)


i'm also gonna ignore most of main quest line now, first to gain more experience, increasing my health bars and ap bars enough so i am well prepared to take on fort hagen and the many many synths, i also need lots of fusion cells then, and also a mini-nuke if possible


now i also paid attention at tutorial for how to throw grenades equip grenade hold and release R1


i made it safely into diamond city (although i first ran in the wrong direction thx to that radiation storm i couldn't see where i was going and i ran into super mutants who blew me into tiny bits :skull:) gonna need Piper as my companion still though (even though not on main quest line) some extra firepower can never hurt and i need dogmeat to remain safe in sanctuary hills although he can also respawn whenever he gets into trouble against enemies so

Just started the new Until Dawn also playing EA WRC & Mortal Kombat 1.

Mystic Mock 01-11-2024 02:39 AM

I finished playing Lollipop Chainsaw: RePop a couple of days ago.

It was a short but very sweet Game, it's probably one of the most fun Games that I have played this year.

The length could've done with being slightly longer though, but nothing too drastic tbf.

And there shouldn't be a censored mode, which is essentially what the RePop mode is.

It should be the uncensored version only, but I'm gathering that Sony were pushing being dullards onto the company that makes Lollipop Chainsaw.:bored:

But basically play the original mode is my advice, it's really fun.

Nicky91 14-11-2024 12:30 PM

F1 23 5 races to go

i am still in the lead for the drivers championship

but i am now having to get me some grid penalties though, new components which are very much needed, especially my engine, turbo charger whom were on their last fumes in Qatar


Austin sprint quali

i managed to somehow (idk how) pull off 2nd place, so i need these sprint points, considering with the race i am at the back of the pack :laugh:


my teammate Enzo Fittipaldi almost got himself some points although he was slowing me down so bad luck for him, although now i know what his problem is, lack of engine power

he q'd in 17th (out in Q1 so) while he finished in front of me in the first practice session


i'm now at a difficult choice to make, next season

stick with Fittipaldi and try to improve his ratings as a driver

or go with someone more experienced, to go for the constructors championship

:think:

Nicky91 16-11-2024 01:42 PM

I am world champion F1

:clap1: :clap1:


i finished 2nd behind Hamilton in Austin, just ahead of Russell


now i have all the time on my hands to try and improve Fittipaldi's performances

Nicky91 17-11-2024 01:47 PM

Mexico GP


Fittipaldi outqualified me :o :o finally, i gave him some upgrades to his car, i gave him more simulator time to improve his pace



i qualified in 12th though, at least i avoided the q1 exit lol

Nicky91 18-11-2024 01:20 PM

that Mexico Race


:umm2:


giving me a 5 second penalty after i was pushed off the track, but i was at fault for cutting off that corner

so i needed one extra pit stop for that penalty then, managed to finish 12th :( would've been in the points if not for Perez blocking me and making me spin


Fittipaldi finished in 16th, ahead of the likes of Zhou, Norris, Hulkenberg, Ricciardo, with two DNF's (Leclerc, Bottas) more upgrades to come for him in the next race, which is his home race Brazil

Nicky91 19-11-2024 01:54 PM

Brazil GP (F1 23)

sprint qualifying

we were both eliminated in Q2 (me in 13th, Fittipaldi in 14th)


i finished 2nd in the sprint race, behind Esteban Ocon, and ahead of Fernando Alonso


Fittipaldi despite tumbling down to last place, climbed back to a decent-ish 16th position, so not disastrously bad, but more slowly improving



i lost my rivalry to Perez though, first rivalry i lost :(

Nicky91 19-11-2024 02:06 PM

sooo annoying, on Q2

i had to go out, one more time, on new softs

was busy with a good lap too, then out of nowhere me getting pushed into a spin, by Gasly i think

and my lap was ****


also by the looks of things are going now, i am renewing Fittipaldi's contract, but i gotta up his tempo even more, as well as his concentration stats


but it feels much more relaxed somehow knowing you are already world champion, so i can take it easier with my engine instead of fully aiming for the win

Mystic Mock 26-11-2024 02:42 AM

Stellar Blade - I am really liking the Game.

In particular the boss fights are really a big selling point for me, and the Sci-Fi aesthetic as I do love my Sci-Fi stuff.:laugh:

And the story is much better than I was expecting, that's two different Soulslike Games that have told much better stories than I was expecting for that type of Game.

And if women in South Korea look like Eve (or even a quarter of the way there) then I want to go on holiday there.:dance::joker:

Astro Bot - It's a really fun throwback to 90's 3D Platformers.

I don't think that it's better than Stellar Blade imo (not even close) so I do disagree with the Game Awards on that opinion.

But taking the Game on it's own merits, it is a fun Game that Sony should definitely be trying to recreate more often with their own in house Games imo.

It's a solid 8/10 experience.

Nicky91 02-12-2024 01:52 PM

Jurassic World Evolution 2 is really great, although i gotta learn how to manage my budget a little better, i got bankrupt and i had to demolish some paths, a enclosure which didn't hold dinosaurs (yet) and i had to go for more expensive merch in the shopping centre as well as more expensive foods, drinks


won a bronze award for curing an illness of my triceratops :D

Mystic Mock 11-12-2024 11:38 PM

A couple of days ago I played The Quarry.

**** me! That was below par from Supermassive Games.:umm2:

The cons:

- Terrible pacing.

- Mostly unlikable characters.

- Boring gameplay

- Why oh why can't the West seem to make normal/average looking women in their Video Games these days? they say that they want to be more realistic with their depictions of women, but having them look like She-Beasts is not how most women look.

And if anyone that works at Supermassive Games are for some reason lurking on this Forum, this is your definition of a physically goodlooking woman?:umm2:



I think that it's really concerning that fillers on lips is deemed attractive at Supermassive Games tbh, plus she did look more scary than the enemies in the Game imo.

I keep daring modern western Video Games to make a female character look attractive (because they do exist irl) plus Asian countries are able to do it, so the West can definitely do it.

But I suppose when they're struggling to do a more average looking woman, what hope do you have of them going one better?

And not to derail my other points too much, but the reason as to why everyone is playing the Game should've happened by the end of the first chapter imo, at worst the start of the second.

I nearly got to the halfway point of the Game, but the unlikability of most of the characters (especially Emma and Jacob) broke my spirit tbh.

I did like Dylan and Ryan though, just to add something positive about my experience with the Game.

It's good seeing you post more regularly btw.:blush:

Nicky91 17-12-2024 01:27 PM

i'm also busy with my second save of telltale guardians of the galaxy


this time though i chose to
Spoiler:

Destroy the Eternity Forge, it was that or Hala being able to bring her entire army of kree back from the dead


Spoiler:

it kinda pissed off Rocket though, however i just have to make up with him later on i guess, but i want Gamora as my right hand tbh, i fully trust her, and as for Drax well i'll allow him to have his moment of honor in combat i guess





i just adore the soundtrack in this game, ''Shambala'' ''Livin Thing'' are such iconic classic bangers :dance: same as for Sparks ''this town ain't big enough for both of us''

Dogeatdog 22-12-2024 10:44 PM

I’m still carrying on with Red Dead Online. I’m a fully fledged Bounty Hunter and Collector and now I’ve moved onto being a Naturalist. The lady who gives the missions (Harriett I think her name is?) gets really angry if I kill animals (Wtf am I supposed to do if I’ve got a giant grizzly bear running towards me? Blow him kisses or something?) but she’s ok with me killing humans?

The missions are actually quite fun tho. It’s good to just explore on this game and just come across random events.

Nicky91 24-12-2024 12:55 PM

Immortals: Fenyx Rising

is absolutely epic!!!!


very similar to Zelda, omg yasss the nostalgia tea, last time i played that was on my N64


love how you can create your own design for ''Fenyx'' i got mine with blue hair, female and the red star across her eye


also luv the accent of the voice actress too done perfectly ''broken english'' which is a superb choice considering this is all from the greek mythology


the puzzles i've encountered so far, are decently challenging but i always like a puzzle anyway
