On the flip side, Ancient Greece has plenty of wealthy targets to plunder ![:pirate:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/iHRZEfNZh0YIpMXNUjdF.png) The wall around Athens had a lot of issues with thieves that would raid it for supplies on a regular basis when their ships needed upgrades... or so I heard 😇

Without a Voice
On obvious but unconfirmed tree spirit in the form of a woman befriends an exiled princess. I grew too frustrated at the idea that the princess had rationalized her being exiled and the comment sent by her brother that she may as well use her exile to better herself for future marriage. Ugh. I mean, maybe it all turns around and she becomes queen, but I just wasn't in the mood to deal with the story until it reached that point. Will return to it another day.
Your Dry Delight
Men love. It is sizzle hot without being raunchy. I disagree with the game forcing you to go though a different route to get the ending. like what... I want to watch the Detective munch on Mr. Jewish Mafia, please and thank you.

It allowed for a neutral..polyamorous triad ending? vague but can be construed that way. That's a cool cat ending I approve of. Still Team Meyer though. ![<3](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/MFGWpSFCHdLUEeVIMZoU.png) ~smokeh~ XOXO DropletsThat's a neat idea. The entire room is full of jerks. Hot jerks. You're also kinda of a brat yourself, and horny at that. SO you've decided to go after one of these jerks. And boy oh boy, as someone who is not immediately a fan of tsunderes, I don't like any of them. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/CeRUIfXurYhaBmWjMBkt.png) Except for the one that no one likes because he's too nice to everyone. I can't figure out if he'll be a twist character or if he really is in the wrong group.

Played a little game called "Enslaved: Odyssey to the West", loosely inspired by "Journey to the West". The protagonist is nicknamed Monkey, he fights with a staff, and has a circular hoverboard, called cloud, that can only be used in some selected levels. It was fun, but buggy on higher settings. Walls that should be destroyed stayed still. Lucky me I could clip throught them. It also has a companion system, a hacker girl that you can give commands to move, distract enemies, heal you or upgrade skills.

"Perikles hit with tomatoes and strange disappearance of 15 Athenian Soldiers on the eastern wall" Mercenaries are searching for a tall God like Spartan goes by the name of Kassandra. If seen call mercenary crime stoppers on their mobile numbers. Do Not Approach you will be called a "Malaka".

It'd be nice if they took that warning to heart. ![:why:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/MVXW0DmcTsJZlBSSOwAc.png) Twice last time I played I got civilians caught up in battles which caused big bounties.

In Greedfall:
Ah yes...companions.
Did the next stage of Vascos little companion mission, tracking down his family to try and see what they were lie...what he was missing. And well Bastien ended up being quite the reckless daring individual who had a whole lot of crap after him. He went onto and stole merchandize from a disreputaable indidivudal who sent debt collectors after him. Oh actually real fast I also bought a cape which gave me extra charisma and also a brand new explorer sailer coat...anyways though this has made most of the charisma checks very easy since then and well I also got this guy's assitant to leave him. Which, the guy was a dick and looed suspiciously like the mine owner. But at the end Vasco decides that it was not worth it and he was better off as 'Vasco' and not 'Leander Darcy'.
The Bridge Alliance is starting to annoy me. Once more they came after us after we witnessed the ritual for the joning to make the on....*ahem* the ritual that Aphra wanted to see. Aphra did get some brownie points with me for not being too pushy this time and she thinks she knows who is trying to observe the natives her unscrupilious former master.
Finished off by starting going after the camp of the Ordo Luminious, talked to the Mother Cardinal who put me in command of her troops to go take out said camp. As an aside it was interesting that the MC said that Petrus was trying to become a 'Cardinal' himself, now I assume there is a rank between Cardinal and the Mother/ Fater Cardinal but it was an interestint tidbit.

BG 3 I didn't spend a lot of time in CC. I ran through all the selections, I made a high elf ranger, and am impressed. Perhaps it'll be even better once the game is complete. It's nice to be able to jump without having it locked behind a skill book. That's what happened in DOS 2. Additionally, bonus actions like shoving in combat really helps. I was in a bind facing a group of four in a dungeon. The mobs were smart, they shoot then they hid. Fighting through a doorway can be advantageous but that didn't play out in my first attempt. Two of the party went down. I reloaded and went DOS2 style. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/LGLtCPvIKeQPFXyYM0Ed.png) There was an oil barrel in the room the party was in. I first unchained everyone and positioned them. Then I moved the oil barrel to the doorway and had the ranger opened the door. She went into combat and of course standing in the door meant she took potshots from the mobs. I moved her away from the doorway to force the mobs to come through. The mob ranger shot the oil barrel. Hurray Mr Stupid, you did it for me. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/LGLtCPvIKeQPFXyYM0Ed.png) Mob wizard, mob rogue and mob fighter spent their action points going to the door. Next turn was my companion wizard. I had him throw fog, blinding the mobs. Githyanki companion shot an arrow at the mob wizard, took 3/4 of her hp. Mob archer ran forward and shot at my ranger. She went down and cleric companion helped her up. There was nothing more to do since all her protective spells were used in earlier fights and it would need long rest to replenish those spells. It's the mob rogue's turn and he very kindly set himself, the fighter and the wizard on fire (they were standing on the oil slick) by throwing a fire bomb. ![:lol:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/hvmIjhwmXXhEpLGvVjWX.png) He and the wizard burned to death as the turns rolled, leaving only the archer and fighter who were taken out handsomely.

The hacker also murders the PC, if you get too far from her. It is a decent story-friendly explanation for level borders. --- Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning. I reached the desert area. It is not too different from the forest area, except for visuals and 1 new enemy type.

Went back and finished Red Dead Redemption 2. Part of me loves this game and part of me hates this game. I would often waffle between thinking I wanted to play it again, and never wanting to play it ever again! LOL. A lot of frustrating aspects to it, you just have to shake your head and laugh at times. Arthur Morgan really roped me in during chapter 6, ended up way more invested in the story than I would've thought. And yay, I don't to to worry about accidently finding some spoilers anymore!

Really should play Skyrim again but you know MODS!!!!!! ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/CeRUIfXurYhaBmWjMBkt.png) I always spend days setting them up then play for a day and stop but this extended cut might make me jump in again and get engaged. I know how you feel
I currently have a set up with about 200 mods, of which there are 182 active plugins (though most of those are compatibility patches ![:rollseyes:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/FumHmgIatAKrBHKVLvNP.gif) ) My current problem is knowing what race I want to play, but not the actual playing style...my usual style (sneak archer) doesn't really work well with followers
but I agree, this mod looks very nice...might be nice to get some better fleshed out factions (I sincerely hope they tackle all of them...most of them (but especially the Bard's college) feel kinda bland imo.) and the people behind Skyblivion are also making leaps of progress as well, I watched a developer diary a few weeks back (Narrator guy sounds epic, just saying ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/CeRUIfXurYhaBmWjMBkt.png) ) also, Nightingales for life

In Greedfall... Trying to remember what I did first in the game lets see. Finished off the Ordo Luminious Camp. Nothingreally to implicate Dormicious though I am not surprised since its obvious he is a pretty big character. Honestly I know this game falls under the far too regular 'RPG' category that aren't very good at the RPing part of RPG. There is a lot of reasons going into this and frankly I still blame the Witcher for this but in the end them being a 'BioWare RPG' its glaring that they have missed one of the two most critical elements of what makes a BioWare RPG. Now I have been able to ignore it up to this point because I was expecting it and I give them some leeway that Spiders is obviously not a tripple A company. Buuuut this quest did annoy me because before the assault on the camp the Coin guard guy asks me for my orders. And De Sardet, with no player input, goes off on a very elaborate plan. This was a golden opprotunity to have some player input, and we got zero. Plus its really hard to RP Jon Snow when you don't have any RP options so might as well have the guy running around stealing shit. ![:lol:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/qUctXNjCPgwPaLsZeKry.png) . Other than that tidbit...good quest. I continued on with the main quest looking into De Sardet's background. Of an interesting note once more the Inquisitors are Domicious are causing issues...this time with the Nauts, blaming them for the Malichor. Haven't gotten too far into it but since I was wearing a sailor coat anyway and with my previous experience I was able to get through it easily enough. I do like the twist though all the Naut 'magic' ended up being just actual nautical devices. A very nice touch given the world building established. You have a very suspcious couple of 'nations' out there who are also...supersticious and backwards so why not advertise the fact you are using some mystical magic rather then science and tech? Its also a bit of a breath of fresh air given how terrible the Bridge Alliance so far that you have, at least so far, a pretty descent sciency faction.

Rescued the waifu. Forgot how hard that fight was at a low level, the Krogan can just kill you in one hit.

Wrapped up Train Station Renovation simulator and got all the achivos. Even the one for sorting 400 trash in the right bin. Thankfully the trash in the replayable tutorial counted for that achivo, since I was 13 short after doing all the main stations and I don't think you can replay the levels. And while I had fun playing them, I did not have enough fun to replay them all again. But all in all it was nice. The new stations all had their neat little looks and gimmicks. Nothing complex, but it was nice.
Otherwise been playing a bunch of Horizon Zero Dawn. Been hovering way more in the Like it camp this time. Nil helps. A lot. Pity I'm done with his quest line :C But there is always fan art.

I don' tfind it as hard as the Armature yo uhave to fight outside though on the way in. I'm just grateful for the cover because fighting those things on foot can be nasty

In Greedfall:
*deep inhale, deep exhale*
So I caught up with where I left off during the LP I was watching way back when so everything from here on out I am betting is going to be new. I don't know why I stopped watching it at the time I don't know if I just felt bored or if I just decided this game was for me or if this game was not for me despite this...yet here we are.
And oh boy all and all it was a great little concentrated effort of video gaming magnificence. Just everything about it really kicked it up to eleven in terms of at least plot, story, and stakes, and its going to be really curious if they can keep the momentum going on this and...in a testement to just how much I was enjoying things, I saved two videos.
So in brief went to Admiral Cabral and got the truth on De Sardet's origins, he is the son of a native. (*expected gasp*) And then Constantatin is revealed to have the Malichor *unsurprised gasp*. And then the Coin Guard launched a coup attempt against all of the govenors on the island and Kurt went to warn us *le gasp of actual shock* I mean yes I know it was coming but it was still quite well done.
And there is a lot to unpack and a lot I want to talk about which again this stuff was just actually quite good. But first off Constatin. I don't particular like Constantin he seems...well bit of a dany. Very boisterous and just aggressive but in a kind of false and off putting way, this could come doown to just disliking the voice actor perhaps. But in spite of this I really enjoyed the scene where he was revealed to have the Malichor. Just absolute perfect writing, directing, voice acting, framing, just emotional stakes. I was really feeling for the guy so much was hard to not get a little bit emotional. But the troubles were just starting because that is when Kurt should come in and things just got very bad from here. But I just kind of realized here that so far this story has been pretty straightforward to this point. Very little true complications to the narrative or narrative obstancles to over come...until now. And they basically just frontloaded them because you really get three big BUT moments in very rapid succession. 1. The native reveal, 2. the malichor with Constantin (and him finding out about the secret too) 3. the Coin guard coup. All three of these things by themselves would've been juciy by themselves to string them out but to put all three of them in...well I just played an hour worth all this happened...is just very well done. This kind of thing is something Inquisition should've done, it is what Andromeda did, and it was quite well put together over all. And part of that reason too is I do wonder if the writers of Greedfall did the sort of red hearing double twist thing where you use one really OBVIOUS twist to kind of run cover for one not so obvious twist (see also Star Trek Discovery and the whole Lorca/ Tyler twists). And in this game you had one VERY OBVIOUS twist being advertised left and right with his native parentage...and then one not so obvious one.
Just that I do wonder, almost for the sake of nit picking I just wonder if it came out too far out of left field. Yes there was some set up in the whole Coin Guard phantom squadron training stuff and that was referenced during this quest to its credit..and in fairness it is tough balance to strike but I just have to wonder if they couldn't have set this up a little bit more...or if I missed something.
