I failed in Disco Elysium by trying to punch as an intellectual guy. Lol

 
 

I got the mark! Time to rest until the next wave of content *continues to grind for gear*


 
 

MONSTER HUNTER finish the game before sunRISE. Ok calm down I know the game "starts" at this point


 
 

I did it!... But it's with the Hunting Horn, not my main (Great Sword). Change career?


 
 

Wow, Tetris Connected is a nice find. My wife and I are really enjoying the coop mode + I am baptized by fire with the "max speed" attacks by the CPU. Another great Gamepass find!

 
 

Alright since I guess the last one wasn't indie after all, play The Mummy Demastered! Great metroidvania, albeit short but you know what that's fine, you get to play all the other indies out there. #indietoidthistimeihope


 
 

Play Picross S5. Or any of the Picross Sx games. Actually just play any picross game. You know what, grab a pen and paper, here's a 15x15 puzzle for you - so first column 1-2-1, second column 2-4-1-1... #indietoid


 
 

So... the makers of Cyberpunk 2077 have been - Cyberpunked

 
 

Breezed thru 1-1, 1-2, 2-1 of Demon's Souls then bam I'm suddenly awfully lost in 2-2 Tunnel City. Those damn bugs take forever to kill with either Claymore or spells too. At least I found my way back after going through the dropoff to the lower tunnels

 
 

Thank goodness it's not a bag of rocks! Astro's Playroom is a super slick showcase of the console esp its controller!


 
 

So my PS5 preorder last December that got refunded because they took too much orders? Turns out it would be my golden ticket for the next wave, didn't need to join the chaos last week. Mine is arriving this Friday!

 
 

Cyberpunk 2077 done!... Just kidding just Act 1. Holy shit here we go

 
 

I'm redoing the Warehouse fight on Cyberpunk's The Pickup mission because I fucked up the criteria and Stout won't show up. Also, I'm already 20hrs in and I'm barely halfway the first act what

 
 

MH Rise Good News: Great Sword True Charged Slash is now canon! MH Ride Bad News: I can't do Aerial Switch Axe anymore and I'm stuck with the MHW variant :(

 
 

On the other hand, to all the ppl already qposting their first finished games of 2021 - holy shit are you on a pledge drive we're only a few days in

 
 

My MH group got a clear in MH Rise with all monsters (Izuchi, Rathalos, Mizutsune) defeated! This is shaping up to be the best of tge series yet!

 
 

I've only started logging my finished games at the start of the lockdown since I kinda knew I'll be having all this extra time for gaming. 26 games (plus a couple outside the lockdown like Pokemon Sword) inspired me to count again this 2021


 
 

Happy New Year! I wish you less pandemic and more next gen consoles and Silksong and SMTV and MH Rise

 
 

Merry Christmas from the GMT +8 world!

 
 

Wasteland 3 finally finished, holy shit. No more crashes! Had the pieces ready for the November Reigns ending but I didn't like the trade-off so I went for the regular "good" ending. In the end, I'm super glad I stuck with it despite the instability.

 
 

A major retailer has announced the Series X here and it doesn'r require any of those preorder bullshit!... But they jacked up the price. So my options are a fairly priced PS5 that you can't find anywhere and a $700 XSX. Lol.

 
 

The retailer just called - I didn't make the cut despite having already paid for the PS5 and I'll be getting a refund? You know the saying where it's better to have loved and lost than never have loved at all? Well, not this instance

 
 

I got a PS5! My wife and I were steering for machines and one of them got one within 2 minutes! They just announced though that they got more than they could chew and might be dropping off some of those orders so I gotta wait in 1hr for the confirmation

 
 

In about 45 minutes, online preorders are gonna be up around here for a whopping total of 5 minutes. Wish me luck.

 
 

Props to Chris for trying that greeting in Podtoid Ep 466 - it was a nice surprise! PROTIP: that language has mostly hard vowels so "a" in "bark", "e" in "speck", "i" in "feet" (long e), "o" in "oh" but with less "w" sound and "u" in "boo" (long o)

 
 

In the other side of the Pacific, retailers have announced the PS5 release date at Dec 11, about a month late with a retail price of ~$580, all things considered (shipping/duties/etc)... not bad, I have a few more weeks to mull between this and the XSX

 
 

Ugh, can't decide between an Anbernic 350P (cheaper, has HDMI out) vs 351P (newer, partial support for PSP/DC/N64). Right now it's down to deciding between being able to play it on a TV or having more emulated consoles

 
 

Cmon XSX (and soon, PS5) preorder...-ers. Gimme the lowdown on those sweet hauls and help a guy here pick one for the holidays (I'll get the other in a couple of months, enough time for my wife to not hit me if I got them both too soon)

 
 

Looks like a bunch of people had their birthdays recently - have a good one!

 
 

Wow, WL3 has some unexplained mechanics that would have helped me in some of these fights greatly had I known them earlier - things like initiative roll, the fact that initiatives reset after a mid-combat convo (!!!) and how great trick shot actually is!
