    Oh mah gawd! I'm so pumped for Mega Man 2 & 9. I love those games. Used to speed run 2 (not incredibly impressive).

    I'll definitely pick up 11, but I can't say I love the graphics. I'll always want the pixel art. Still, can't be too grumpy about a new MM game coming out.

    Once you know what weapons to use on which bosses, 2 is surprisingly fast until Wily's castle.

    Link to those who are confused/lazy to track down the calendar.

    Figure I'll just wait till most of the games are announced since some of this stuff is just DLC.

    One last cheevo in Hand of Fate 2 but it's farming huge success on wheel games which is rather rare. In fact there is only one encounter card I have that lets me do this.

    But what's this? There is a challenge and several cards that let you repeat encounters several times over? Haha, I love you Hand of Fate 2.

    Played a bit more NEX MACHINA last night and I'm only somewhat confident that I remembered to breathe. Like, I'm alive now so I must have, but I'd fail a polygraph.

    I'll have to grab Nex Machina again. I picked it up during the Summer Dale hoping for something like Assault Android Cactus but unfortunately it was not. Still really cool but not what I was looking for at the time.


    In other news, interesting little bundle over at IndieGala. Most I don't recognize but you can pick up Murder for $1...which I guess is the default price for it on Steam now as well. Well you get two other games with Murder this way! Really short but very interesting little game.

    I remember Murder didn't super grab me for some reason, but enough time has passed that I think I should probably give it another playthrough with a fresh perspective. After all, it doesn't take long, and it's absolutely gorgeous. I think I did it a disservice before, maybe expecting something slightly different from its story.

    So I finally got some time to play some PC stuff again (other than Destiny 2) and blew through like 15 hours of Prey and finished it tonight. That was amazing! In celebration, here's some humble bundle leftovers if anyone wants to grab them:

    A civil war between robots where the revolution is spread by virus.

    That's the part I disliked about the cannon, whether the wars were caused by the virus driving reploids insane or spreading rebellious ideals.

    Still, megaman x is fun....and the movies are....

    I just remembered that you can't store games in your inventory to gift later.

    Granted I haven't done it since like last year, but gifting this way was super convenient at the time.

    I guess I could just buy keys from sites like fanatical, but I'm not sure if they have restrictions for all their games now. I know they did with Doom, which sucks because that was a really good deal.

    Having a blast with Card Quest tonight as I've stumbled upon what I think is a super OP combo (please don't nerf). I'm a berzerking, flail-weilding clergy man. Each time I resist damage (with my holy pecs, looking at the card art), my next attack gets +2 damage, which can be stacked 3 times per round for a total of +6. If I chance upon the "Inner Rage" card that's another +2 damage and puts me into berzerker mode where all my attacks do +2.

    Stacking all this together onto the only card I have in my deck that attacks all enemies very weakly now suddenly does an absolutely humongous 12 damage to everyone just ANNIHILATES the AI. It's uncommon to have more than two enemies out of a possible eight having more than 12 health so it's an absolute monster of a combo.

    Fucking top game. Really snuck under the radar there with it's completely low-rent graphical aesthetic, but damn if the gameplay loop isn't completely on point

    Thankfully they are pretty good about putting a big warning about whether a key has specific limitations.

    I'm not sure if Humble Bundle is the best for that sort of thing then. Otherwise it's just gifting Steam monies.

    Just poking through its Steam page, this game seems like Risk of Rain and Card Hunter had a baby. Is it single character or party combat?

    I really need to get back to my Okami game on PS3. I had stopped playing in August 2015 and I had spent a good chunk of time playing it up to that point.

    Basically stopped playing because I had to deal with the death of a pet and never got back to it.

  • XaquinXaquin Right behind you!Registered User regular
    Okami is in my top 5 favorite games, but I figured they were done

    finding out that a port of the HD version I never got to play is out in 7 days is like the merriest of christmas presents!
