Jedi Fallen Order
Well, in my attempt to get back to the ship I realized I had gone the wrong way and had to backtrack. In doing so, I discovered an entire area I hadn't seen yet, the crashed Star Destroyer. Couldn't get all the way in though - blocked because I need power in a console. But, afterwards I took the correct elevator back to the top and was able to make it to the Mantis, which was under attack by a robot thingie that Cal took out pretty easily (I am playing on Story Mode after all).
After filling in Cere and Greez on what he found, and planting more seeds in the terrarium, it was off to the Wookiee homeworld, Kashyyyk. Now, this entrance was kinda fun if a bit frustrating at first. Who wouldn't want to drive an AT-AT, right? Reminded me of Aloy scaling a Tallneck, except Cal got to blow stuff up afterwards. Took me a few attempts to find the right path up but it was all good after that.
Met up with Saw and agreed to help him with....something something freeing Wookiees. Started exploring and found a new upgrade for BD-1, the power one so now I can probably finish exploring that downed ship on Zeffo. There's an echo (I think) in the same room as the upgrade that I can't figure out how to reach. Oh, and also a BIG ASS SPIDER that attacked me out of nowhere!
I'm not exactly sure where I'm going (weird!) so I stopped shortly after that at the first meditation spot I found.

Of course I am still playing Atelier Ryza 3, and have loads of fun with it. But that's not the only one. I have to fill the gap until two of my most anticipated games for the coming months will be released... Trails Into Reverie and Atelier Marie. So in the mean time I fill that gap with a few games I am playing now. And those are (in no particular order):
King's Bounty II Everspace 2 SpellForce: Conquest of Eo X4:Foundations - Kingdom's End DLC Kingdoms of Amalur - Re-Reckoning Blue Reflection Hogwarts legacy
Yep - That are a lot, but I have a few months to fill up. Some of them where sitting in the backlog for a while (or where put on hold, because something else was just a bit more important), but now they get the spotlight. And some of them I am busy playing, but I have not ended them yet.
For now I will be busy. That's for sure...

So I reinstalled all my games, and so far all of them are working quite well (well, technically I only tried two of them, but they work so...yay? ) and I have 480 GB free space left on my SSD Which means I can add a few more games on there, just gotta decide on which ones...ah well, currently only playing a few anyway
Oh btw, I dunno if anyone already knew this...but they added collectable cards on Steam for Dragon Age Ultimate Edition I already have 4 out of 8

SWTOR
With my Sith Warrior, I hunted down the people who were tracking my ship for Karr...and talked to that Jedi who's like the nemesis of Darth Baras. He's a poo-poo Jedi. Telling the agents tracking my ship to defend themselves and then crying I killed defenseless unarmed people (they had blasters, it did them no good, but they were not unarmed). Then he sent some "Republic bests" to capture/kill me (aka it was a trap). That too didn't do them no good.
Then he refused to come face me, because "Jedi do not seek fight"...but he says before that he was going to destroy me and Baras. Like I said, poo-poo Jedi.
Now I have to go to Tatooine and Alderaan to find out more about his new apprentice who is hunting Baras's agents. I also need to decide if I make Jaesa LS or DS. I've done both already, I just don't know if I want "Edge Lord Jaesa" or "pure angel Jaesa" that just sound out of place on my ship. I'm thinking DS, since she was LS the last time. My SW warrior is neutral right now, but kinda likes bloodshed so...
GW2
I went and got Hero Points to have my Sylvari Warrior unlock the final elite spec that wasn't unlocked (Berserker). To do that I looked online for Spellbreaker solo build and after trying the Berserker, I ended up liking the Spellbreaker one a lot more...
Now I don't want another Sylvari, so I've been trying characters in heavy armor (using preview) to see who looks best. It's not that Asura. Sylvari have gigantic pauldrons that looks stupid (lots of oversized boots and gloves too). Norn aren't bad but like humans are boring...so I ended up with a female Charr idea. I haven't played a Charr since I did all the personal path for achievement reasons years ago. My original main was a Iron Legion Engineer Charr thought and I loved her until Path of Fire released and my Engineer build was shit so I moved to something else. Engineer is better now but I never went back to that character.

Demonheart: The Ice Demon Something other than Persona. Guess you could say it was for personal reasons. But tbh been using the PC a bit more the last few days and it has been staring me in the eye, asking why you no play me? So played it. Had a blast. Was kinda surprised how favorable the first runs ending ended up being. Usually end up murdered or something but this time I got a house, a friendly roommate and a sweet gig as the town healer. Then got the Demonspawn ending because of course. Then got an even better Demonspawn ending, even if the achievement said it was a bad ending and I ended up somewhere I didn't want to be. Jokes on you I've always wanted to end up in a floating room made of flesh with a manic goat for company. Only got one achivo left, which will be kinda hard since I need to be mean and learn dark magic. Which basically means one more full run because I was the nicest pest ever in the other ones. And also blood magic . It should go pretty quick if I can be bothered to do it. But it was very fun. Got a bunch of chuckles out of it and the art looked very lovely.

Kind of thinking of doing a little bit here and a little bi tther style run of Hogwarts in the background as whils tthe game is fun it can drag on a bi trtying t oge tto level 34. Been thinking if I do it a little bit a ta time I might enjoy the push to 34 more. Don't know if I actuall ywill ye tbut it's something I'm considering because I think it might be moer fun playing the game in smaller chunks.

I played Jedi Survivor and then got a refund. The stuttering was so bad for me it was impacting me by giving me a headache. With how bad it was running I don't see them being able to fix it properly, so it is now on my "buy on sale" list which is sad for I was looking forward to playing it.

GW2
I finished unlocking Spellbreaker and geared up my new Charr Warrior.
One of the interesting thing with a Charr character in GW2, the personal story is perfect to role-play a Charr. Since it let you start into the Legion of your choice and you get a related storyline to it. Iron goes on to build stuff (it's perfect for Engineer Charr characters). Ash does spy stuff. Blood rebuild their warband and fight stuff.
I went with a Blood Legion Charr since I'm a fighter. A stabbity fighter, but still a fighter (I use daggers). And now my Legionnaire (my warband superior) is pissed at me because his orders got most of the warband killed. He's now sending me on punitive duties aka fetch quests. I already kicked the ass of all the new recruits to the warband...because his first order was to try to get me beaten up. Idiot, not wonder he got most of the warband killed.

Jedi Survivor
The saloon is getting more lively. There's music now. A trader on the look out for bounty hunters. Picked up a pair of game masters who set up a holo battleground on the upper level of the saloon. I can choose to field Imperial troops, droids or fauna and play against other NPCs. It's kind of fun once I figured out how to play. It's not difficult.
I didn't realise the biggest creature on Kobos can be tamed. He can't be ridden but you can grab on to one of its whiskers and it'll carry you over to a hard to reach area.
Linked up with Merrim and Cere again. Merrim has mellowed. I hope I'm not reading too much in her interaction with Cal. If there's pairing, they're it. 😄
Learned a new skill. Lightsaber with a blaster? Haha. Interesting though I've seen this in Rebels.

Kanan Jarus for the win. *** Assassins Creed Vahalla Beat up on Kotjave and his little clan. Did the little thing where I had to breach the defenses by getting up over a wall. And the game has this weird thing about not giving you xp for dealing with mooks during certain story sections. Sure grind prevention but it does strike me as a bit of a weird. Also the boss fight remains annoying as heck. The normal cheese factor didn't work so that is concerning but weird enough...didn't seem to let me dodge like at all was mashing the button and it would still force me to be hit. Though despite this still managed to take him out in one try. From there went up to meet Herald. I was patting myself on the back there for a few seconds because I found the pig crap key very quickly. But it didn't last long because spent ten minutes at least trying to find the stupid way down and then ended up looking it up...and ugh that stupid rock formation thing that you had to know down into it. The whole thing with Herald does remain rather fascinating because he wants to unite all of the Viking lands into one clan with him as King and then go out to conquer new lands and new civilizations. Ostensiably because he is tired of war. And well Stynborn even mentions how tired he is of war to and that this is the only way to lasting peace. Just that now in hind sight this scene does come off as being really odd. A. Despite being rather outraged by this plan Sigurd then goes to England to conquer new lands and begins conquering them and also uniting the other clans. Ditto for the couple that comes to talk to him and says that they are going to go west. B. Stynborn and Herald, again, both mentions that this plan is to make peace and how tired they are of the blood shed. But then they all seem pretty OK with the idea of then going out to wage war against the other lands. Also the whole 'raise a nation of warriors thing'. Also doing more musing about how I am going to do weapons and just thinking about the experimentation with them. Ironically despite my original plans may not do a two handed weapon afterall. But it also occurs to me that the thing is should have a fast weapon in addition to a slow one. Basically what I did last time. Right now a flail and a war hammer is an interesting combination and both heavy on the stuns, but might not be the best, which ironically daggers do do the whole fast strike thing and of course have to keep axes in mind. Though flails do look like they have promise, as I thought, for the left handed weapon. Swinging it about heavy stun, looks like it has distance, and maybe even the ability to strike more then one person at once.

GW2
I finally got that Jacaranda pet for my Sylvari Soulbeast. I named it Veggie. It was quite a long run to where the Jacaranda pets spawn, since I had to cross Elon Riverlands and Desolation to get to Vabbi (or however that damned area is named).
I'm contemplating , what to do with my Asura guardian, since I do like ranged weapons more than melee. I kind of like her and don't wanna delete her, but I'm not sure. I do think, that it is good to try out the different classes to learn some core mechanics that are shared for example. Plus I like twinking. I have over 30 characters in SWTOR. I did some story and events with my Asura guardian to get some grip on that class.
I also might farm more heropoints with my necro, since I think, the other two elite specs sound interesting too. It's a bit different with my ranger for example. I think, Soulbeast is perfect. If I go farming heropoints with her again, than probably, because I want to try out the healing spec in group content.

Hopefully I'll finish ME2 today. Somewhere between finishing ME2 and starting ME3 I'l probably start my Griffindor on Hogwarts but I'll likel yonly pla ythe opening level and just get to the point where she's at Hogwarts and in her house for now I won't take it further than that. Mostly because this is going t obe a playthrough I'm going t otake m ytime over and just work through it slowly a little here and a litle there. As I mostl ywant to focus on other games right now. Unlike Lucy and Sabrina though she's going to learn the unforgivables So Ranrok and Rookwood will feel properly cursed dealing with her.

GW2 I'm contemplating , what to do with my Asura guardian, since I do like ranged weapons more than melee. Core Guardian can use scepter (with shield or focus in the off-hand) and staff as ranged, while the Dragonhunter elite spec gets to use the longbow. Scepter+shield/focus isn't a bad combo. Staff is more support oriented. Dragonhunter is getting a buff in next week balance patch too.

Jedi Survivor
Be prepared to go nuts every time a new skill is learned. I learned Dash at Jedhar and the pathways from that point on is double jump, dash and wall run to hand holds. If you're afraid of heights, don't look down. You'll also die many times especially when you're required to jump, turn to a different vector and hit dash to grab the next handhold.
The flight sequence with Merrin is also crazy. Absolutely CRAZY!!! 🤣 Her skills are vastly different and she showed Cal a new one as they escaped from a gigantic machine. It's a mad flight. I didn't even know where I was most of the time. I just knew the moment Cal started to free fall a bit, I have to look for the green portal she threw up and dash to it. The entire flight is in the air.
Although absolutely frenetic and crazy, it's awesome and fun at the same time. 😄
Cal also picked up a new lightsaber. The kind with crossguards. It swings slower but has greater damage.
The next new skill is a powerful pull and lift. The heavy pull is to get rid of ceiling shielded turrets. I think it's also for any mounted electrical devices. Also good for pulling huge creatures to the ground or platforms down. The lift can pull platforms up and enemies in the air.
I think these two are the last skills to be learned because on Koboh, Jedhar, the broken moon, I've come across places that are inaccessible because the obstacles have to be pulled down or lifted up.
The new skills are learned through the main story btw.

Jedi Fallen Order
Things are getting more interesting! Both Cere's and Greez's past have come back to bit Cal in the ass. Thanks guys!
Freed the wookiees from imperial prison but the chieftain they were looking for wasn't among them. After getting assurances the fighters would continue the search, Cal and crew haded back to Zeffo to explore another tomb being excavated by the empire.

Another upgrade for BD-1, this one the reverse zip line option, which of course had to be used extensively in this area.
This area was interesting mechanics-wise. I say interesting, but what I really mean is tricky and annoying, especially on the way back out.

Back on Kashyyyk, which looks even worse than it did before, thanks to imperial troops attacking the outpost and the refinery fire still burning. I think I've only managed to roam the refinery areas but found a few more goodies and another BD upgrade, the one for hacking droids. I think that one was here? Also found more BIG ASS SPIDERS, including the albino one that scared the shit out of me when I turned the camera around and it was literally right in my face. That was enough for the night so maybe next time I can actually get moving on the trail to the chieftain's hideout.

Despite being on vacation rn (finished 2nd week, one more week to go), I didn't do as much gaming as I expected, since I spend most of my time re-reading my favourite webnovel. Not my fault it has so many chapters...As for gaming, I finished all story chapters in Persona 4 Arena Ultimax. Not touching arcade modes, no need to be reminded how bad I am at fighting games I also got pretty far into Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth. Originally I was planning to do both P3 and P4 sides (game makes you pick at the beginning), but since not much changes between those routes story-wise, I decided against it. There are just some aspects of gameplay that would hinder my enjoyment of second pt. Both games offer quality Elizabeth-Theodore moments tho, so time well spend anyway. Between those two I cleared new area in Genshin Impact. Now I'm pretty much set with exploration before new region comes out. But I wanted to have it out of the way, since of 26th Honkai Star Rail came out - game I've been waiting for quite a while. I didn't expect to love it as much as I do. Aside for scratching (almost constant) itch for turn-based combat, it has the silly kind of humor I love. Plus it has Peppy, bestest yawny puppy in existance.

Things are getting more interesting! Both Cere's and Greez's past have come back to bit Cal in the ass. Thanks guys!
Freed the wookiees from imperial prison but the chieftain they were looking for wasn't among them. After getting assurances the fighters would continue the search, Cal and crew haded back to Zeffo to explore another tomb being excavated by the empire. Apparently I wasn't supposed to find the crashed ship until now, because that's where I had to go. Was able to get past the block and move deeper into the dig site. Another upgrade for BD-1, this one the reverse zip line option, which of course had to be used extensively in this area.

Yeah it's things like that that kill the game for me as trying t odo that when yo uonl yhave 1 hand on the controls sectins like this is really hard. It's why I'm glad games lik eME i fthey have moments lik etha tare covered by cutscenes instead of having th eplayer have to find a way to do it. The story and combat of Fallen Order are fun it's jus ta ll tha tplatforming and having to do extra stuff like puil a rope towards yo uwhilst platforming is wha tmaskes it a hard sell for me. Especially as I was finding all that platforming stuff hard as it is. Because in a lot of these games you have t oge tyour jumps accurate as it is in order to make it. It makes the Tomb Raider reboots look and feel like a piece of cake b ycomparison and those games were pretty challenging especially 2013 given a lo tof the time you had to do it at speed. It's one of the main reasons why I said I think I'd need t obe in the right mood t opla yit as I think you need to be patient in order to eventually get through sections like that and these days my patience isn't there like it used to be.

GW2It didn't take too long before my Charr was Legionnaire of her Warband...via kicking the previous Legionnaire ass in the arena. She then recruited a few more people and was sent to deal with a Flame Legion attack with her warband. Then more Flame Legion plotting unfolded because I took the Flame Legion Shaman sire storyline. I'm kinda sad that when one Flame Legion Shaman told me it was either "joined them or burn", my character didn't say "I choose burn" like my Sith Warrior in SWTOR when offered the same thing. Despite the downleveling, I'm trashing everything super fast too. Dagger/Dagger spellbreaker is just super stabbity. I also sometimes smash things with a big hammer.

Thanks for play testing this for me, no way I am playing it now. It could have the best story, graphics, combat and everything else but those wall running etc. gameplay mechanics and the ice sliding and the getting turned around maps. BIG NO from me, I'd end up throwing my PC through the window. It's why I never played any of the early Tomb Raider games as I just do not have the fine motor skills to execute that stuff and it frustrates the absolute hell out of me. And maps I don't mind if there is some challenge in navigating them like having to climb something or find an entrance but the ones in this game just sound ridiculous for the sake of being ridiculous.

Baldurs Gate 3 So got the face making bug again and Alsyr was born.
Looking none too pleased. Wood Elf. Ranger Class, Mage Breaker (head canon is that she was working with the Fist in Baldur's Gate and mages were enough trouble that she put some effort in learning how to break them) and Beast tamer (for the familiar, except I never summon them so bleh.) Background is Sage because she had to learn about mages to break them and ended up finding the subject interesting in general. Figure Soldier would also have fitted. Figured I'd just end up ditching her at the grove, but made it to the Spider Mama at least. Post ended up pretty long, so putting it in spoilers. For space and stuff. Did really well on the starting ship. Managed to snipe most of the enemies, both current and future ones, so fighting went pretty smooth. Didn't save Shadowheart since you have to use Taddy the Tadpole and well, she's not desperate enough yet. She passed the Perception check with Astarion, so he got to live another day. Didn't invite him to the team but did offer him shelter at her camp, since she is a ranger and such a foppish man probably wouldn't last long in the wilds on his own. Gale on the other hand managed to whine his way into the party, using stupid facts and stupid logic. Got to whine at Lae'Zel for "Abandoning me at the ship". Lady you got yeeted out into the air via passing pebble, going after you would've been stupid at best. Either way she knew a cure so she got to join the party. Visited the druid Grove. Poor Barth never makes it. Granted he's a twit so not that beat up about it. Met up with Kagha and failed at the nature persuasion, but passed the nature check that the snake was ready to kill so Arabella lives another day. Then bickered a bit about Sylvanius and talked to Rath and offered to hunt down Halsin. Having gotten the idea that Halsin would be the likeliest healer she didn't bother talking to Nettie. Also was getting dirty looks from Kagha so figured she'd better hoof it. Wyll got to join the gang cuz we need a hero, we holdin' out for a hero 'til the end of the niiiiight. Visited Zorru and let Lae'zel do her intimidation sthick and was delighted at Wyll's reaction. His "Huh" face at her claiming to be gentle was hilarious. Let Arka kill the goblin and was delighted to see Wyll approving dialog. Can only listen to stories about Waterdeep taverns so many times after all. Tried and failed at saving Mirkon. And kinda cheated and reloaded until we made it because...Mirkon I despise Mol though so didn't bother visiting her. Got the spider egg in the pouch and lied to the Owlbear that we were totes stumbling on it on an accident and not just thirsty to see a big birb bear. Speaking of thirst, Wyll is dying over Lae'zel. Like damn dude, you're worse than me. Had the most spectacular failure in the burned village. Alsyr detected the ambush and managed to sneak on the roof and shove the goblin leader off it. Then the little twit succeeded in the intimidation check, so the goblins weren't hostile and the leader got back on the roof. So pushed her off again and put an arrow in the face so she got the message. We are out for blood. Then did the angry goblin at the mill. Planning to cause some carnage. Get Lae'zel in there, Gale leaps on the roof, goblins get four turns and all shoot at Alsyr, one of them gets a crit or something and the goblin boss is suddenly screaming for mercy. Wat. I mean I dig it. I hate that fight with passion. But also what the heck. Seems like he tossed a smoke bomb at Alsyr with himself in the blast radius and the damage he suffered made him chicken out. No good dead goes unpunished though so let Wyll kill him. Let the gnome go because he was spamming the chat box and I wanted to find out what the heck happened in the battle. Then went and visited the spiders. And died. So many times. Eventually won after shooting most of the eggs with a bow out of combat and then got lucky in where the spider parked it's big bum and Wyll's eldritch blast being a blast. Ended the session with the dog joining the camp and Astarion unleashing his own beast. Didn't know he could do it if you ignored the boar carcass, but figure it's enough just to walk close to it since Alsyr could make the connection between it and him. Ended up not putting him down like a dog, but sent him to bed hungry and was amused over his whole spiel of being useful. Dude you're stuck in the camp. Your powers mean nothing. But might end up switching Gale out for him since I didn't rest enough for his highness so figure I've broken his dialog tree so approval points will be pretty useless and Astarion can also learn Magic Missle. My favorite spell. My only spell. And granted don't know if I'll pick this run up again. So. Whoop.
