    Believe it or not, I actually got some chores done today.

    And that's saying something, because if Diablo IV was this good at any point last year, it would have definitely been near the top of my Best Games of 2023. You know, instead of being omitted entirely.

    So let's just say that Armored Core VI absolutely just got smacked out of the running for Best Yesteryear Game.

    Updates and Such

    Well, as a thunderstorm rolls overhead (and hopefully doesn't knock power out), I thought I'd offer some updates on what I've been up to.

    Long story short, I'm pretty much in gaming overload at the moment.

Ugh... FINE. I'll try it. · 11:25pm Dec 13th, 2022

I have played nine 2022 games.

So what the hell, let's take a chance, and make it an even ten.

Elden Ring is the first FromSoft game I feel that I’ve actually gotten decent at. The fact I’m still struggling against one of the end bosses is irrelevant. Overall though, I do find myself loving this one.

Hehe see you in a few weeks

Elden ring is special. i have played all the soulsborne games along with sekiro and they each tend to have something special that sets them apart. for elden ring it is definitely the world. my first playthrough (which was as complete as I could get it for finding as much as I could) was 80 hours. my replay was 55 ish (had an excel document with all bosses to make sure I did not miss any) amazing game. explore as much as you can on a first playthrough. for replay excel sheets help a lot. someone already made an exhaustive one

I'm five hours in with a Vagabond. Level 19.

I can see why it's good, but I am seriously having SO much trouble fighting through my muscle memory with Witcher 3.

honestly, the best piece of advice I can give is if something seems insurmountable (like you have tried the same boss for 45 minutes) just go somewhere else. the game WILL throw a challenge above your pay grade at you (though with stubbornness even THEY can be overcome) but in regards to muscle memory, you're just gonna have to force it. it would likely be the same with me playing witcher 3. I have been playing souls for years, whereas I have never even touched a witcher game.

It's particularly damning here because Quick Attack over there is the X button, so by the time I realize my mistake, I've wasted half my health potions and have to hike back to the nearest Grace point.

I've beaten one boss so far, the Beastman dude in the caves, and I died five times. I kept trying because it felt like he was beatable and I was making mistakes.

Good luck with your stroke.

The Souls, Souls-lite and Souls-like games are strokes in the form of video games.

The grind and open world are some masterful stroke prevention then. I'm enjoying it so far.
