I'm nearly finished with Pillars Of Eternity.
I'm not sure what game I want to play next. I don't think I'll play the The Technomancer again just yet (although I really want to).
I could start playing Skyrim properly after having already played 100 hours haha and install some mods.
I've also been in the mood for Fallout though, so I could start playing Fallout 3 again. There's also the Dragon Age games, the Dead Island games...and so many others...
I just don't want to have an unfinished game by the time Pillars Of Eternity 2 is released...so many games I could potentially play though!

So after I found out you can catch Celebi in the virtual console version of Pokemon Crystal-I decided I had to go for it after all. I got it yesterday, and just started playing it some tonight. Still going to focus mostly on Dragon Age till I finish it, but it's cool to finally get to play this one-I skipped it the first time around. I'm playing as the girl pc since it's the first time it was offered in the series, and it just feels right to honor that with my first run.  She's adorable with her little blue hair sprite! I die! |

So I've been trying out an experiment in Diablo 3. I used to play the hell out of the game (no pun intended) on the PC using my battle.net account. I decided to roll up a character for solo play, something to kill shit with while the hubby is gone or asleep. A lot of came back to me as I've been playing on the PS4. I noticed quickly that the Necromancer class is extremely overpowered, so I started on Hard and decided to not take a companion with me.
That's lasted until Act III. I actually got bored taking down elite mobs on my solo character. One of the harder bosses, Belial, only took literally 25 seconds. I got the challenge reward for taking him down by myself in less than 30 seconds. I've decided to bump it up to the third difficulty, Expert. I can't go up anymore until I beat the game for the first time on my PSN account.
It's slowed me down slightly. My knowledge of what stats to prioritize has paid off and I can stand in a lot of nasty AOE effects without worrying too much. Between things like my 7-man skeleton army, the Skeleton mages to summon, those summons leaving bodies behind for Corpse Explosion and my high resist and intelligence stats, I am a beast.
I'm not normally one for challenge runs, but I'm curious to see how a solo run on Expert is going to turn out. I think I'll be fine until the expansion (Act V.) From there, we'll see. I'm still saving some rings and necklaces for one of the followers just in case.

Decided on Sims4, and ended up playing a randomly generated family that I took a interest in awhile back and moved into a house etc. The oldest child (a son) was a young adult and had been randomly flirting with a guy in previous plays, so when said guy asked him to the romance festival I thought "Heck yeah! Boyfriend material?". The night went well. Until my sim asked the guy to be his boyfriend. He got turned down. Died from embarrassment right there in the middle of the festival. His teenage sister witnessed the whole thing. Turns out that guy is from the new town, and is already in a relationship. My bad. Poor Phoenix.  First time I've ever had a sim randomly die like that in 4. He actually died?  That's hardcore! Pleading with the reaper did no good. Now his ghost calls up the family constantly wanting to hang out.  |

Played the Eltariel expansion for Shadow of War, I like that she has her own animations and playstyle and that you can use her character model as a skin for Talion in the base game...not a fan that her skin gets replaced by Talion in some of the story missions. Interesting that the 2 new ringwraiths are from LoTR's Japan equivalent. I did like the unique looking orc's and troll made for Eltariel's story. It was pretty tough to play as her since she doesn't use Celebrimbor's ring to dominate orcs, and the gear you can get for her does change up how she plays (the orcs/trolls you fight to get that gear can be pretty frustrating to deal with too). They kinda have an opening for a sequel too, since Eltariel notices that Celebrimbor escaped from Sauron's eye thing when the One Ring gets destroyed...I don't know how to feel about that. I'll probably share some more screenshots from the game later today or tomorrow. |

I decided to start playing Fallout 3 again. I'm really enjoying being in the world of Fallout again...but I have to admit I'm much more excited about New Vegas and 4...especially New Vegas!
I've been spoiled by all the gay content those two offer, especially with New Vegas allowing you to play as an explicitly gay character. It's been pretty annoying having all the females throw themselves at my Lone Wanderer and not having that option with males.

I've sort of temp abandoned Dragon Age for Pokemon, and I'm not really enjoying it so much since I've gotten to the 5th gym, and my pokemon are all underleveled nearly. so this is basically me now in the game: I hate that there's no good way to level in these old games. It was not as bad in pokemon yellow, red and blue, but in Crystal-it feels like the level pacing is very hard to manage. |

I finished Diablo 3 on Expert, but I did die once. I got too cocky and decided to bump the difficulty up to Master after beating Diablo but before finishing the expansion. Now that was a mistake. I didn't have enough resistance going into an area and got roasted. Pretty literally too. There is some fire pillars that spray in all directions and they won't quit until the enemies are dead. I got caught. There was no saving my lil necromancer. I swallowed my pride, rezzed and dropped the difficulty again. I'm still playing her for the post-game content and the money for future characters. I noticed they changed the very ending of the game slightly. It's made very clear that there will be a Diablo 4. Which means I'll be 45 by the time the game comes out. I turned 38 in September.  |

I think I finally decided on Summoner for my FF14 character's combat class. I was gonna go White Mage, but if i'm gonna be farming crafting materials like wool I need something that can actually dish out some damage. He's doin pretty well now, almost 40. |

So I have been obsessed with Fire Emblem lately. Specifically all 3 games of Fates (beat Conquest, in the middle of Birthright, have Revelations ready to go once I am finished with BR). I have also been playing Fire Emblem Warriors on the Switch. Once I beat Revelations, I will probably play Awakening.

I have a hard time deciding which path I like best. I really like the ending of Revelations best, but the gameplay of Conquest is really fun-even though I totally use the dlc grinding. |

Did you S-Rank Niles? Cause he is the only male option for a Male Avatar. I really hope in future Fire Emblem games they make more same sex S Rank options. |

I've played through the game 3 times each story I think.  It was a cute romance, but it felt a lot like a BioWare first draft He's a bit of the overly flirtatious bad boy. I'm more into the guys like Kaze and Ryoma. So I play as a girl mostly. |

Too many cute anime boys (and girls) to pick from. I just like pairing people off lol |

It just pleased me greatly! |
