    Lord help me, I’ve returned to Dead By Daylight for spooky month. The new killer is actually a really cool, really disturbing Thai themed one (possibly also overpowered, but whatever). Kinda wish behavior would stop doing crossovers and just riff more often like this cause the original killers are usually really enjoyable.

    I finally rolled credits on Mario Kart World! I was slowly progressing through the Grand Prix tracks by three starring the 150cc cups. I managed to find a great Peach build and plowed through four cups last night. Apparently a recent update was implemented for marking and tracking free roam collectibles so I’ll probably start working on that now that I’m done with the “main campaign.”

    I’ve been finally playing BG3 with my brothers, over the last several weeks/months since we only get a few hours once a week if that.

    We’re in act 2 and I’m really enjoying playing a light cleric. Game is fun would recommend playing with others.

          Up past the top of the citadel at the cradle. You go close to the far right side of the platform you fight on, then use the super jump to go up. There’s a long path up to the surface there, it goes to Nameless Town which just has a new type of passive bug you can afford to the bestiary and a memento. Tough but I dont think as tough as hollow knight? I haven’t played that since it came out so big grain of salt.

          I don’t think it’s half as hard as the path of pain. It’s a difficult climb up. But it isn’t path of pain difficult. There’s usually a wall to grab so if you have the piton equipped you can catch your after every jump.

          Took me about 30 minutes. Now the ant queen, she kicked my ass for over 6 hours.

    Played a bunch more Persona 5 R. Did the 5th palace in a day (as per usual), almost ran out of SP against the boss which would have been a problem given the gimmick. And sure, I had like 200 SP restoring items in reserve, but I’m not going to use those, what if I need them later? I now have more money than god from running over demons in the subway and the economy lies broken at my feet. It’s also weird how the opportunity to start getting real fat stacks unlocks after the time I would have needed it last (unlocking Fortune). Sadly the game will not let me use my ill-gotten gains to buy Faith a new phone. :(

    Also still playing some Warframe on the side. Gotta get and level every Kuva weapon, obviously. It’s that kind of pointless stubbornness that got me where I am today!

        I don’t notice much of a difference tbh, the new meter that lets you ignore death builds up so fast that she’s basically permanently invincible. In terms of abilities, her 4 is still the main thing, 1 is still useless, 2 is a solid buff, and 3 has to be cast so often (due to how quickly you blend the effected enemies) that I only rarely use it. That said, I really dislike EDA and ETA so I can’t say how she does in more difficult content.

    I have started playing Dredge. About 5h into it. Really chill fishing game with a lovcraft theme.

    Doesnt really feel like a proper horror game so far but it has this whole spooky vibe so perfect for the season . Its kind of a slowburn but not bad at all. I think I will finish it next weekend.

    My D&D group wants to take a stab at playing Baldur’s Gate 3 as a team on honor mode, so I’ve been replaying that game to familiarize myself with it.

    I still dig the absolute hell out of how this game plays. I’ve tried and bounced off of Divinity 1 & 2 multiple times but BG3 gets the whole “semi turn based immersive sim” feeling just right chefs-kiss. It’s sometimes janky and dumb, especially around surprise mechanics and party members going in and out of “combat mode”, but its got so many more options than you think it does and it makes your interactions feel really deep even though at its core the whole thing is just a tactical miniatures game.

    My dream RPG is something like this but set in the Warmachine/Hordes universe.

      Totally agree with this. I’m done my second playthrough and this time doing all the things I missed first time around, having lots of people in camp that I can swap out, upping the brain worms, it’s so much fun.

    I’m back on that Blue Prince bullshit. I’m far enough in that I’m decoding whole letters written in a conlang and doing really frustrating math ciphers. I get the sense that I might be out of fun puzzles and should probably call it good.

    Maybe I’ll buy Silksong already.

    Still working on Returnal. Finally got halfway through the game and that felt like a mission from God. Its so good and so god damn aggravating at the same time.
