Been replaying Andromeda again.  Also, played a good bit of Super Health Club recently. I have unlocked most of the scenes (minus Kojui's ending, and the 2 histories that are impossible to unlock for me anyway). |

I really need to see how well (or unwell) they made MEA for xbox one x but AC Odyssey and Mass Effect Trilogy are holding me strong in their grasps  Maaaaaybeeee once I instal MEA I'll play for a little bit. |

The harshest criticism people can get away with is saying it has far too much realism and becomes inconvenient to the player, but yeah other than that it's basically witcher 3 all over again to the gamer bros and you won't change their minds I’ve heard some critics/journalists/youtubers say the story is not as interesting as RDR 1 because of how the character of Arther Morgan was written but I avoid spoilers because who knows maybe I will purchase RDR2 so don’t have details. The best critics I trust seem to be ambivalent. They like parts of the game but think it is too much pomp and circumstance for what the story experience is and that the game gets too repetative at the end and feels detached from the side activities like hunting/robbing that take up much of the beginning. They still give it ridiculously high ratings though in spite of moments of Clarity. Part of me wants to pick up RDR2 because the first game was kind of fun and i’ll Literally buy any game that has native Americans in it (no matter how terribly represented) because I see so few of us in ANY media.... but the game loooks so boring to me. We finished the game, so I’ll try to say what I think without spoilers. I definitely don’t think it’s as bad as I did when I posted that, but it hardly deserves the raving reviews people have been giving it and it’s definitely not the “best game of the decade,” as some people have apparently put it. It’s not bad, though, there are things I like and things I don’t like. The story and characters aren’t very interesting, and one of my main complaints is actually that the controls are amazingly annoying and a lot of the time don’t even make sense, which is a problem until you’ve played far in enough that you’re just used to how bad they are. Also, bonding with your horse is one of the core things of the game, but you can only ever have 4 horses at once, which is a bad decision on the developer’s part. I thought Arthur was boring and stupid for a good half of the game, but he grows on you a bit. He’s still not an especially interesting/noteworthy character, but he’s alright. It’s a decent game if you go into it without the overhype. |

My cat-squire pulls out a raft automatically when I go in water. I'm not sure why I find this so adorable, but I do. 
Also, I gave my cat a guitar so that he could hit Dragons with it. Thank you video games, reality was not very accommodating in bringing that concept to life.

It’s a decent game if you go into it without the overhype. Interesting. It was a recurring theme in the reviews that were more nuanced that the game had weird idiosyncracies with controls, game mechanics, etc. one of the positive 10/10 reviews I saw had a weird moment where they said that the game was like an okay western tv serial that was mostly laden with filler as opposed to a great western movie. But I guess that means 10/10! i decided to just buy Spyro instead of RDR2 because while I prefer RPGs and I had plenty of money to throw around having bought 0 games all year, I guess i’m Getting old because the thought of playing another open world game with too much content for months (short gaming sessions) and time spent just moving through the game for most likely zero to minimal lgbtq content (even though in the real, non-Hollywood based Wild West there were plenty of LGBTQ people) made me tired/sick. |

I just got my first shiny Pokemon since gen 5 in Let's Go!
I stumbled across a Nidoran-F which is awesome because I was actually trying to shiny hunt for a male one a few days ago before I got bored and gave up. Poison is my favorite type, so it was an awesome find.
(Unfortunately this means I'm going to have to bench my carefully raised power house Gloom because I don't like having type repeats. He was Modest nature and everything. Poor guy.)

I just need to do Silent Assassin, Suit Only on the final level for Hitman 2, which might be tough since I'm not to sure about where to catch the targets since both of them are usually in very restricted areas.

I think I've finally talked myself into wanting Pokemon Let's Go Eevee. I was originally going with Pikachu since it's more traditional Pokemon Yellow style...but overall I like the exclusives better in Eevee-plus I have the actual pokemon yellow on 3ds anyway.  anywho, sorry for going off topic. I've been playing Mass Effect Andromeda and SHC still. |

Also, I'll probably maybe get a copy of this once it's very cheap, I'm still somewhat slightly interested in a MP Fallout experience despite the panned reviews...
Wew is this game getting draaaaaaaaaaaagged something fierce!  Only a week or so out and it's already on sale... LOL
Continuing to wait till they get their shit together with patches and added content a few months down the line. Black Friday sales were good, got Fallout New Vegas the Ultimate PS3 edition for €12, never played it before, heard great things so looking forward to getting into it. I also finished Far Harbour, Dima rubbed me the wrong way throughout, didn't feel good going for the neutral "good" ending, should have went with my original choice where the town folk executed him for murdering the original Avery. It's what he deserves. And good lord those memory puzzles were fucking cancer!
More importantly though, more teddys have been found!

Bethesda became completely disrespectful to their customers. They can't fix PC/Xbox One Skyrim and prev Fallout since DECEMBER LAST YEAR and gamers from many European countries are unable to play those titles while being connected to the internet. Meaning - you want to play? Uninstal all the mods, disconnect from the internet and only then you have a CHANCE (it's not 100% sure, some works, some doesn't)... As far as I know there're problems with 76 too. They can literally kiss my dirtiest shoe, I'm never going to buy anything from them again. No wonder 76 is in such bad condition. They can't do anything properly. |

Heh, I watched Gopher play Fallout 76 on Twitch, he ended up "rage-quitting" because the keyboard rebinding didn't work. A PC game that doesn't allow a PC gamer to rebind their keys is just not worth the money. Fallout 76 is like Fallout 4 without mods but with griefers... This should have been a free DLC for Fallout 4, a multiplayer expansion. Instead it is just what Joe and others have said: a shameless, lazy cash grab. After this, I'm not all that excited for Starfield and ES 6... And I'm sure I won't give FO 76 a chance. But I just bought Dishonored 2 and Prey, and I've been playing a lot of Warframe lately. Now, DE knows how to motivate players to give them money I've been playing for over 6 months now (I know, this is nothing) and I already know I'm going to play this game for as long as it keeps being as entertaining as it is, so I thought I'd throw a little money DE's way, for a job well done. And Dishonored 2 is such an awesome game. I started with Corvo, and will do a playthrough with Emily once I'm done. |

I played some Fallout 76 beta, which got me nostalgic for the far better Fallout 4.  Being happy to see Preston Garvey and Marcy Long can be a thing.  |

I completed the Kouji route on Super Health Club tonight. I got the history there with no issues as expected. I still have no clue why I can't get the histories for Chris and Phil though...but what can you do? The problem with playing indie gay games is there's relatively little information out there about the games. The site for the company itself seems to be down-not sure what the deal is there. I did see their histories on youtube, so at least I know what that content is.  |

Still slowly progressing through Dress up your Cat Simulator, more commonly known as "Monster Hunter World". I finally have the basics down, and haven't really had any problems with the bosses lately. But more importantly: <iframe style="position: absolute; width: 13.340000000000032px; height: 12.740000000000009px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none;left: 91px; top: 72px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_33175160" scrolling="no" width="13.340000000000032" height="12.740000000000009"></iframe> <iframe style="position: absolute; width: 13.34px; height: 12.74px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 693px; top: 72px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_57686136" scrolling="no" width="13.340000000000032" height="12.740000000000009"></iframe> <iframe style="position: absolute; width: 13.34px; height: 12.74px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 91px; top: 646px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_15728815" scrolling="no" width="13.340000000000032" height="12.740000000000009"></iframe> <iframe style="position: absolute; width: 13.34px; height: 12.74px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 693px; top: 646px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_52191480" scrolling="no" width="13.340000000000032" height="12.740000000000009"></iframe>  He's got a freakin' crown and I love him so much!  Edit: Forgot to mention after exploring one of the zones long enough, he gained the skill to talk to the small lizard monsters, and every now and then he will convince them to help us take down a boss, and I get to see him riding one as a mount as he thwacks a massive T-Rex with his hammer!

They can't do anything properly. Yeah, I mean I do expect bugs and glitches when it comes to Bethesda games, never expected it to be as bad as many have reported for Fallout 76. I enjoy their games and I'll continue to buy what I enjoy, I'm just gonna wait this one out till they fix the mess and add more content, I do hope they will learn from this. |

As one of those who can't play Skyrim since December last year on xbox one, I refuse to pay them for anything. Why would I buy their products if I can't use them, right? And it doesn't look like they're going to fix the issue. They even blocked us from reporting bugs and other issues... So it looks like I've lost my money on them. |
