![]() I never would have tried it if it weren’t for the praise received here and I have to say I’m glad I did. I’m liking it so much more than Divinity Original Sin.Įarly in the month I played a lot of Steamworld Dig. ![]() Wasteland 2 made a strong entry at the end of the month, but when I heard about some bugs that rear their mutated head in later parts of the game I decided to hold off until a couple patches clean things up. My goal is to play at least through the 1980s, but I never have played more than a season or 2 of OOTP before quitting. Guidry isn’t quite capturing his 1978 magic, but is still my ace. So I’ve been playing some solo Out of the Park Baseball with me running the helm of the 1978 Yankees. I’m just about done reading Willie Randolph’s book and have Mariano Rivera’s reserved at the library even though Mariano entered baseball just as I was leaving it. During high stress 9th inning moments I would change the channel in the middle of the pitch and switch it back to see what happened because I couldn’t bare to watch the play unfold. I was a huge baseball fan and played a lot of baseball in my youth. The AI could do a better job at defending itself but my time spend with the game was worth it.įor some reason lately I’ve been bitten by the nostalgia bug for the 1978 -1980s Yankees. While still a 4X game at heart, it manages to shake up the formula enough to make it feel fresh. My hands down winner this month is Endless Legend. I tend to go a bit crazy in the beginning pf the school year before I start to fill in my time with more productive activities - like exercise. It seems like I played even more than usual this month with my son’s return to school. Played it “Online” for 3 hours before I read that it could be played with the browser closed….The Tasker gloves had a shitty shitty roll.Finally got my Tasker gloves for DH that increased my dps by a lot.The weekend event sucked, since it ended when I was at 27/30- Meaning the last 12 points I got were a waste of time.The weekend event was kinda nice, even got a 7 day VIP from it.New map tileset released lately, and steady updates.A new Prime released that I do not want, but still want for some reason.Still incredibly annoying getting blown up by another player who has all purple gear.Like how they added some more PvE/Game than just fighting in arenas or small PvE encounters.In sum: 5 games based on grinding levels to get better gear to unlock ‘next tier’ to grind all over again :-) I certainly get tired of it after a while, but my god, there’s so much fun stuff to do and it just keeps expanding. Oh, and World of Warcraft, which I’m probably on the verge of being wholesale hooked on again. Not a lot more than a choose your own adventure book but the writing’s great.Ĭlosed out Walking Dead Season Two - weaker than the first season, still great.Īnd the Bioshock Infinite: Burial at Sea Part Two DLC, which on the whole I liked a lot. The fantastic Choice of the Deathless, by Max Gladstone. I know a lot of folks seemed pretty disillusioned with it after the first blush, so we’ll see if I end up feeling that way myself, but so far I dig it a lot and I got to almost the end of sequence 5. (I suspect neither it nor the tower defense, which wasn’t great but was also hard to trigger deliberately, much less inadvertently, will.) Then I moved onto Assassin’s Creed III, which was a notable improvement in pretty much every way. Hopefully that particular mechanic does not recur. Basically pretty decent, but definitely the least essential Assassin’s Creed so far and I did not much care for the light bridge puzzling that they introduced on Desmond’s end. ![]() I also finished off Assassin’s Creed Revelations, well over a year after I started, though I spent most of my time with it when I first started it and this month. I’m not sure I agree with all the design decisions they made, but in terms of being a sprawling, multifaceted old school RPG it is absolutely delivering on its Kickstarter promises and I could not be happier I backed the project. Game of the month has to be Wasteland 2, even though it debuted relatively late in the month. Did a surprisingly large amount of gaming this month.
