What did you do today in any other game out there

Just finished Spider-Man: Miles Morales. It was alright. Felt very short compared to the previous one.

Yeah, HOME is Switch service with additional mobile app. Just like Bank, it's subscription-based, but it has some free functions.
FE:3H alone is worth getting Switch for 

True, story can be repetitive, but can't really expect more from franchise where main focus is battling and collecting (and the amount of people that bitch after each time Game Freak tries to do something different from the story would be amusing, if it wasn't so sad). That's why I like Gen V so much and appreciate an attempt of Gen VIII. 

Sandbox game definitely would be awesome. They really should think about side-title like that, considering they can't bring some of their older side-titles back.

Quiet is not the best nature for Absol gameplay-wise, but I'm glad you got one that matches his canon personality. I also often look at the ones that match what I imagine my Pokemon's personality to be, rather than stats. Plus XY aren't hard games to begin with, so it won't cause any problems

In Pokémon Y...

It might be worth doing again just to see how differently it plays out if you take a different option.
It sounds like you went with the egg method the first time.
Having Guillaume sacrifice himself has a far better ending, and you get to talk to the happy couple at the Palace later in the game.

Looks like Zeus is about to descend from the heavens in this scene. The variety of weather effects and sky boxes in this game is off the charts.




You find these grim scenes often. I've no idea what happened here. Maybe poisoning? They didn't starve and there was no blood. looks like they died suddenly. Couldn't find any clues around. The environmental storytelling in this series far exceeds anything in GTA.

I've got a double-helping for y'all.

First: Civ VI
I'm playing as Japan this time, on an Archipelago map, random opponents.

I end up with Mapuche, Sumeria, and Sweden.

I've got the smallest main island, but I have access to several smaller islands nearby, so Harbors are going to be critical for trade routes.

I'm falling behind in science and culture, but I have a lot of production and gold, so I attempt to leverage that for alliances.

Gilgamesh is my bro, and Kristina likes me because I'm uncharacteristically an uncultured buffoon. (Gee, thanks)

But Lautaro is just not playing nice, and is angry with everybody, even after I gave him all my iron and niter.
He declares a surprise war.

I have several Musketmen and a few Frigates, so I consider myself prepared for the War of 1740 AD.

But I wasn't expecting attack helicopters and nuclear submarines.

3 turns later and I've lost Fukuoka and Sendai.
Nagoya is burning, while Tokyo is next on the Mapuche's hit-list.

By a stroke of luck, I get the declaration that grants a Giant Death Robot and just enough uranium to run the thing.

It is literally the only hope for Tokyo.

So, what do you get when you cross anime, steampunk, giant robots, the mid-eighteenth-century, and a bunch of angry island-people?

Apparently, this.

My GDR is able to cut through the invading forces like a katana's blade.
I may prefer a longsword (hits that sweet spot between offense and defense), but boy howdy am I grateful for the sheer offensive power at my disposal.

I manage to reclaim Fukuoka and Sendai, and Lautaro sues for peace.
Being an honorable sort, I accept.

However, someone has touched coal and now the planet is instantly flooded.
I lose more than half of my districts at a rapid pace.

My capacity to do basically anything is crippled, so my only hope is to leverage my Suzerain statuses with the city-states to gain enough votes for a Diplomatic Victory.

Makes me wish I was playing as the good ol' USA. * * * O-oh say can you see * * *

Only for Sweden to snatch victory because she won a cooking contest or something.
"Always winning her own Nobel prizes... rigged from the start... ***grumble***"

I am defeated, my ancestors are shamed.
Next time, I'll let freedom ring and liberty sing.

-------------

Second: Fallout 4

The unmodded run continues.
I help Paladin Danse and his recon team secure Cambridge Police Station, and after being granted the rank of Initiate, I'm tasked with acquiring tech for Scribe Haylen.

It's off the coast of Maine.
Far Harbor, to be precise.

So I bring Nick along, start the quest to find Kenji Nakano's daughter, and get on the boat.

It's on the other side of the island.
But I gave my word, so I grab my trusty 10mm Pistol (with a classy Minutemen paintjob to boot) and tread carefully through the Fog.

*** several cannibal fishermen and giant carnivorous frogs later ***

I make it to the lighthouse and find the haptic interface.
And all it took was half my Stimpaks, most of my ammo, and a botched quicksave.

I return to the station, overencumbered but victorious.
Scribe Haylen is grateful, and I receive my reward of...
50 caps.

A bowl of noodles costs about 35.
Purified water? 55.

"You're telling me that I crossed not one, but TWO blasted hellscapes, endured the constant rads from the Fog, and used the majority of my hard-earned resources to secure a glorified Bop-it... and you don't even give me enough to cover lunch?"
"ArE yOu ReAdY fOr YoUr NeXt-?"

No.

I accept anyway, just to get it in my log.
Aaand it's in Far Harbor again.


War never changes.

The last couple of days i`ve been playing AC: Odyssey for the first time (i bought the game two years ago and tried to play it but i had motion sickness whenever i tried so i had to give up but this time i tried again but with depth of field and ambient occlusion turned off and it seemed to do the trick, at least so far) and i`m having a lot of fun.

I`m playing Kassandra and so far i`ve left Kephallonia and i`ve done most of the quests in Phokis and Megaris, helped the Spartans win the battle in Megaris and decided to spare the Wolf of Sparta.

Some screenshots:

Leaving Kephallonia behind.


The legendary "pig" and his piglets (the most difficult fight i had so far )


For a moment i thought Kassandra was in Hafter's Woods, i almost expected to see a couple of Lyrium Smuggler Lurkers join the fight  .


Cool statue.


Just enjoying the view.

I did all of it last time which is how I know I suck at it because each event took me forrevvverrrrrrr.
