GamingThere’s been some new games lately, and everybody’s out there doing their new game tentpole posts. If you’re a blogger, this is blog sales 101: If a new game comes out, write a post about it. Preferably on launch day or sooner. Follow it up with additional posts explaining how to do stuff in the game. It doesn’t matter if any of it’s accurate or not, as IGN proves month after month. Last Epoch First, Last Epoch, the newest in the ARPG genre (which I now call

Dispatches from @ultrviolet@gts.endgameviable.com:Monday 02/19 09:42 # Right after I said I wasn’t hating Lords of the Fallen, I encountered two bosses in a row that I hated: Gentle Gavarus (of all the Dark Souls tropes to copy-and-paste into a boss fight, they picked dogs) and the Congregator of Flesh. Anyway, my dodging dual-wielding Stalker build is starting to fall apart already, and after experimenting with some other starting classes, apparently the easy way to play is to get a big

Dispatches from @ultrviolet@gts.endgameviable.com: Monday 02/12 09:27 # Forgot to report that I completed the Door Guardian in Lies of P yesterday. This might come as a shocking surprise, given my glowing reviews of previous bosses, but I found it rather annoying. Less annoying than the Black Rabbit Brotherhood, though, so I guess that’s a net positive. At this point I’m just putting my head down and trying push through the pain to get to the end of the game. 09:30 # I don’t

Toxic Bosses - February 2024 Part 1

Gaming There was another Steam Next demo festival thing, the first of what is expected to be about five hundred this year, making these things as exciting as a Wednesday. I played two demos for about fifteen minutes each. I can report that they appeared to be earnest attempts to make a game and not just a cynical asset flip to dupe consumers. I hope it was a fun project for the developers because they’re probably not going to make any money for their time, and they’ll probably end up

Dispatches from @ultrviolet@gts.endgameviable.com: Monday 02/05 10:20 # Since I’m uploading Lies of P videos at a slow trickle, I’m trying to write some descriptions for the videos. For some reason, I like to put a lot of technical details into Souls-like video descriptions, so I can read the path of my progress and lookup where I found certain objects. (In Lies of P, it’s pretty linear so there’s only one path, but still.) 10:30 # Someday I’d like to work out a way

I find myself really grumpy as January comes to end, and that will be reflected in my gaming commentary, because for some reason I hate everything about the entire world of gaming right now. It’s probably because it’s the middle of winter and I hate winter and every day is a hellish SAD nightmare of clinging to the last shreds of motivation by the fingernails until the frickin’ sun comes back. (Luckily the solstice has passed and I can already tell the days are getting longer, and

Dispatches from @ultrviolet@gts.endgameviable.com: Saturday 01/27 21:57 # Lies of P really annoys me but for some reason I keep playing it. I think just to have definitive proof that it’s not as good as Bloodborne all the way from the beginning to the end. On the plus side, I discovered that Power Toys accomplishes the task of remapping WASD to ESDF a little better than AutoHotKey, for games that don’t allow that, like, for example, Lies of P. (Weirdly you can remap all the keys except

Oops I forgot to publish this last week. Dispatches from @ultrviolet@gts.endgameviable.com: Monday 01/15 09:03 # One of the advantages of never knowing the day is finding out it’s a company holiday when you get up on Monday morning and having the whole day off. It’s like a snow day. Tuesday 01/16 09:53 # All the cold and snow and ice yesterday (which is quite minimal, to be honest, where I am), is rather inconveniently timed to coincide with a lack of food in my house. Thursday

Start of Year - January 2024 Part 1

2024/01/15

It’s a new year. Imagine if someone counted them wrong. Ha. Anyway, I see a lot of predictions for doom and gloom but I predict this year will be substantially similar to last year. My methodology is this: Perception is reality, so if I simply say “it’s just another year,” then nothing bad will happen, and I can just focus on doing my thing. Easy peasey. I mean except maybe for that whole collapse of society into Mad Max anarchy looming in November. I woke up this morning in

Dispatches from @ultrviolet@gts.endgameviable.com: Monday 01/08 16:38 # Honor Mode in BG3 is really fun except for one thing that makes it very not- fun: Having to run all the way from one encounter to the next and loot a million containers and skip through all the dialog every single time. At least half your time is wasted. They should just give you a big list of the encounters and have it just teleport you from one to the next when you click on them, and assume that you picked up all the healing
