FFVII Remake: I'm NG+ing on Normal to enjoy my power level and clear up some missed bits, Ch 14 currently and wrapping up sidequests (which I need to do in order to grab the 2nd Elemental Materia). I intend on at least trying a Hard mode and 100%ing everything, but its not the biggest deal since I intend on playing it all over again when Rebirth is out on PC and I... have a new PC, and I uh.. pay for Remake too. But 100%ing right now would feel good because I haven't 100%ed any major game any time recently, especially Final Fantasy.
Genshin Impact: Mostly just popping in for events when I can fit it in, and the current one is a Mondstadt potion store management game. Hoping there's some secret lore hint hidden within it, since it does have to do with alchemy and alchemy is a big deal.
Honkai Star Rail: I'm a little worried. I've done enough of every event since launch, but I'd been behind on things on this 2.0 patch and there's a few major things to get through before it all expires after this Sunday. Wish me luck.
FFVII Ever Crisis: Still casually but regularly playing, recent updates made the grind much more bearable, though of course they upped the ceiling of account power (new level cap for weapons). I like the game but not enough to mourn it if it shuts down this or next year.
RIFT: I heard about my shard/server shutting down so I downloaded and logged into my old account to transfer my characters to the current popular shard.
Duel Revolution: Curious about the super negative Steam reviews, I decided to try this Pokemon-like MMO, but the downloading in-app was so slow that I shrugged and gave up.

AMD driver updated with support for both DD2 and HFW. ![:yas:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/htAnsQJksnVMNdAYcCgo.png) So beside download more stuff today, I played a bit of SWTOR. I finished the quests I was on in Shadow of Revan. I'm almost done with the Pirates. After that, it's the Mandos and then the Revanites. And that's half the expac done and we move to Yavin 4 after...if I ever get there one day. I'm going to be quite busy with two new games.

What I found bizarre was there was a note that said that the game files that we had pre-downloaded were encrypted and wouldn't start decrypting till the release time and that it may be quicker to download at the release date time!!!!!! Not for me. I don't have superfast internet so it did it's thing overnight and finished sometime this morning while I was at work. Updated Nvidia yesterday so now I just have to rush through the rest of the HZD end game and I'll be ready to play tomorrow am.
Speaking of HZD - did the Sunfall quest yesterday. Learned what Zero Dawn really was, accessed the file needed to get into the All-Mother bunker, then got captured by Helis. ![:pinched:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/GvGHIKP0cMRGTeziRFQN.png) Then got to listen to Helis pontificate on how great he supposedly is. ![:rollseyes:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/t0UFIaLiu0gIjnYRXLHv.gif) Then got to shove it in his face how great he really isn't by killing a corrupted Behemoth and riding off into the sunset after a dramatic and timely rescue by Sylens.
Now I've got to save the Nora lands from invasion, finish exploring All-Mother Temple, get to Gaia Prime, and then save the world from Hades. All before bedtime!

What I've seen is the publisher forgetting to set all the keys release time properly thought (that's super annoying)...

Looking forward to hearing her aiming some more sassy one liners at Sylens though. I know there's at leas tone Isaw in a short clip has tmade me smile. Don' tworry it's no tspoilery tha tI can tell

So I think FW will go live in the afternoon for me. Maybe.
I also watched a couple of DD2 reviews and some gameplay. I definitely will not be creating a character of the new race because it doesn't seem any different from creating a Qunari in DAI. They're still human wearing different skins.
It's disappointing imo because the race is leonine. Hence their physical and facial attributes / structure should resemble those of the giant cats. Their bone and muscle frame should reflect it as well so they shouldn't be the same size as a human. Their limbs would have claws, their armour and weapons should be different and they should have tails. The devs should take a leaf from Guild Wars 2, the Charr. The design of the Charr isn't perfect but at least they don't look like humans pretending to be cats. Btw, when a Charr runs, he goes down to all fours.
The way they fight should be different too. This would add a lot more combat dynamics in DD2.
Oh well.

Finished HZD!
I found all the power cells so unlocked the ancient armor
On the way back to Nora lands to stop the invasion I grabbed a Charger and used it to get the 5 dismount strikes achievement. Of course doing this caused 900 other machines to attack in the process. ![:lol:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/qUctXNjCPgwPaLsZeKry.png) I also got the 'all allies' one too - not sure why I didn't get it before. I think maybe I did some stuff post-ending instead of before. Nil was there, as was Aratak from Frozen Wilds. They aren't required for the achievement though. Helis was so much easier to kill this time, maybe because I kept lobbing bombs at him. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/CeRUIfXurYhaBmWjMBkt.png) Also had fun with the cannons vs Deathbringers. Not sure why they gave me such trouble first time around - this game all I had to do was aim and fire, and I never had to manually reload them.
Ted Faro is the worst human being ever.
Sylens is a snake and I can't wait to tell him that to his face.

Far Cry 6
You know I think I had a lot of trouble with this mission the first time but this time it pretty much went off without a hitch. The mission with the two Bandido lovers that we have to go from one to the other in flight using the flight suit. This led to a lot of fun dialogue on my part with the wife but were able to swoop in both times without dying.
From there probably the worse mission in the game as I was drafted into helping Maximas Montanzas throw a concert...against waves of bad guys, tanks, helicopters.
Then had to go around blowing up all the distilleries at the rum plant as well as Maria Marquessa's trucks and billboards. It took kind of a bit to finish blowing up the distillery because I did not read the objectives properly. Though on the other hand it could have labled the boxes. On the bright side though when I started the quest the other objective was already 65% complete. Seems all those Maria billboards I was blowing up...and the occiasional truck...was actually going into completing the quest even though they weren't actually giving me experience.

At this rate all future Bioware games will be half done and modders need to rescue it for free.

Yes, so I am in the Grand Reef looking for the last Degasi Base and this place is tricky. I almost get destroyed but then, I found it and quickly returned to the place and find not only the base but, an orange table used to open a base, two Cuddlesquid Eggs and the alien containment schematics:

Finished HZD!
I found all the power cells so unlocked the ancient armor
On the way back to Nora lands to stop the invasion I grabbed a Charger and used it to get the 5 dismount strikes achievement. Of course doing this caused 900 other machines to attack in the process. ![:lol:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/qUctXNjCPgwPaLsZeKry.png) I also got the 'all allies' one too - not sure why I didn't get it before. I think maybe I did some stuff post-ending instead of before. Nil was there, as was Aratak from Frozen Wilds. They aren't required for the achievement though. Helis was so much easier to kill this time, maybe because I kept lobbing bombs at him. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/CeRUIfXurYhaBmWjMBkt.png) Also had fun with the cannons vs Deathbringers. Not sure why they gave me such trouble first time around - this game all I had to do was aim and fire, and I never had to manually reload them.
Ted Faro is the worst human being ever.
Sylens is a snake and I can't wait to tell him that to his face.
I like all of that, "sylens is a snake," "Ted Faro is the worst human being ever." Couldnt agree more.

Forbidden West is decrypting/installing.
I checked out the achievement list while I'm waiting: 80 total, 48 hidden. The ones requiring X number of whatever now have counters to track progress.

Honkai Star Rail: I'm a little worried. I've done enough of every event since launch, but I'd been behind on things on this 2.0 patch and there's a few major things to get through before it all expires after this Sunday. Wish me luck. Good luck! I don't recall any event this patch being really time-consuming, so you should be able to finish them I managed to do the first parts to unlock the restaurant daily event, but I still have everything else to do. Ideally I'll mash through the main story(s) today so I can do the events this weekend. On the bright side I completed the Genshin potion shop event after 1 hour one day, and 3-4 hours on a second day. Gimmie those housing furnishings and caduceus themed weapon ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/KGsHESiZGZU0pPuHuhQr.png)

HZD
I'm tempted to feel sorry for people who are so excited to play Forbidden West over this masterpiece, but just hope you guys have more fun with the game than I did.
Picked the aggressive 'Fine! Why did I ever need you in the first place?!' response with Rost when he sprung his plan to disappear on Aloy, because it's such delicious drama and because it's one of the only moments in the game where you can play her as being seriously flawed. If only by throwing a classic and totally understandable teen girl tantrum.
Mother's Heart is such a trip after spending some time running out around the Embrace. The claustrophobic cluster of buildings, drum-beat and mass of chattering and singing Nora present give the perfect overstimulating atmosphere for poor little outcast Aloy, while at the same time showing you a pretty strong and healthy community coming together to enjoy themselves and celebrate. Love it. I love Karst and Teb and Teersa, and even rather like Resh and Lansra and Bast. Everyone has personality, character flaws (yes, being a shitty climber and hunter is a character flaw) and a sense of strong communal loyalty that I really admire. On top of all having brains in their skulls, which is a rare thing to see even in named NPCs.
And it's definitely not just the Nora. I'll never forget the feeling I had first learning about Sun-King Avad. It was unreal. A crazy tyrant had arisen somewhere out there in the world... and was toppled by OTHER PEOPLE because it was obviously the right thing to do. Even though it was difficult and dangerous and a lot of hard work, and there's still tension, they just went ahead and killed the guy and replaced him with a decent ruler, without waiting for Aloy to come along and fix everything. I can't believe that doesn't happen in stories more often. It instantly made me really interested in getting out there and experiencing this setting full of nuanced and intelligent people with initiative who act in their own interests.
Was also unaccountably touched when the Sun-Priest visiting the village blessed Aloy on impulse. He recognizes that she's already received a Nora blessing(which she dedicated to Rost, partially for penance and partially because of course she did), and just quickly throws a prayer for the Sun's favor on top. Doesn't feel like a conversion attempt or anything. Just a guy far from home extending a little divine protection to a complete stranger without asking for anything in return, even acknowledgement. Because she's a person and he wants her to be okay, and to leave a little bit of his light behind in the cold north. Like the sun leaving the stone a little warmer well after it sets.
Aloy poking at the patriarchal nature of the "Sun" is also little cute immediately after she learns that her own tribe is just as one-sidedly matriarchal. Which I would personally buy if the tribe's War Chief was traditionally male. But your administrative position being determined entirely by how many generations you've pushed out of your body AND the leader of the tribe's warriors being a woman blows my suspension of belief. Sorry, but there's just no way the male half of the tribe would submit to that kind of arrangement. Which isn't to say that Sona isn't awesome, but her position in an already matriarchal-leaning society just beggars belief.
But obviously none of that compares to once again meeting Erend Vanguardsman, who will always be my secret crush for Aloy. He's so disarmingly cheerful and anti-suave while being confident go-getter, and I like the dynamic of her meeting him when she's just a kid who doesn't know what she's worth yet and he's a genuine exotic hero from the West, which then gets reversed (maybe a little too much) over the course of the game.
Treated Bast with pity and rebuked Resh for disrespecting the memory of the tribe's lost children. Sneering at Rost the very last time she spoke to him, before he gave his life for her, has cured Aloy of any tendency to be spiteful just to make herself feel better in the moment. Seems like the kind of lesson Elisabet might have learned when she was young, too. Also seems reassuring that Rost would know not to take her personally because she was clearly acting out of character. Aaand made sure to visit his grave before heading out of the Embrace.
Gonna make a bit of an effort to focus on mounted combat this time around, to keep things a little fresh. I also won't be crafting ammo or changing weapon loadout in the middle of battle, to make sure I have to diversify my tactics and won't fall into a rut of just using my favorite weapons. And no reticle, obviously.

Played some Horizon Forbidden East. I couldn't use the special heavy weapon in the tutorial boss battle, since I couldn't read the "how to use" while being trashed by the boss. I only discovered after the fight how to use it. ![:why:](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/MVXW0DmcTsJZlBSSOwAc.png) Also, my dodge key is on a weird button and I always fail to use it because I'm expecting it elsewhere. I'll have to do some key remapping. Game is very pretty.

Moar Horizon Forbidden West where I killed machines and talked to people. I finally made it to the open world and finished the " remember the previous game story and character" intro. Took 2.5 hours and I feel like I might have skipped some stuff. Reminds me of MEA start in a way. I reached level 3 and had to spend some points and I have no idea what to take. I just want to bash stuff... The rest works somewhat the same as the previous game, some addition with the traversal I need to remember thought. I started on easy and I find it a bit not so easy since I'm trying to bludgeon my way through it. Lets just say I'm getting a lot of machine's whiptail in the face because I forget to dodge.
