Decided to rebuy Alien: Isolation today on a whim, always thought it was a great game.

 

About 26 hours into Persona 4, having a thoroughly good time grinding dungeons and social links, persona system is fun and pokemon like but I feel that it results in a weird difficulty curve for the game.

When you enter the first dungeon, you only have one persona, limited abilities (and no party members have a heal) as a result, the first dungeon is easily the most difficult stage of the game I've encountered thus far, where I died a few times and every new enemy felt more dangerous than the last and was a true threat, this level of difficulty almost immediately ceases to be when you unlock the 4th party member and their ability set. At this stage in the game I have 11 persona slots and a persona for every situation imaginable, and much like pokemon playthroughs I can just mow through most enemies with little difficulty after finding out their weaknesses.

Still, quite an enjoyable experience and I fully recommend it for fans of the JRPG, revels in the quirks of the genre while being self-aware. Can't empathize enough how well written the game is.

 

I've been playing Stardew Valley all week and loooove it.

 

I played the Persona 4 fighting game last night, really fun. Even though I had no idea who any of the characters were or what it even was about.

 

Been playing Rachet and Clank all day. Gonna shoot for 100%.

 

Need to buy that, watched my buddy play it last night and I was blown away.

 

Persona 4 might be my all time favorite game but I've never played the fighting games.

 

I spent waaaaaay too long looking for Telepathepus brains today. Hahaha.

 

Fairly easy platinum?

 

I've been saying I regret selling my PS3 for a while now because I wanna play Borderlands and Bioshock and other must plays, but now I realized I want my Vita back too.

I had a Vita before my PS4 and thought it was stupid. Now that I see how much I can do I want it back. Plus there are so many dope indie games I want for it.

 

So I am starting Grim Fandango right now. I am sort of a perfectionist. Meaning, if its fun I will perfect a game and I am looking at TrueTrophies.com and everything is a secret achievement. Are there trophies easily missed? I don't want to unlock the spoilers, if I don't have to.

 

A lot that I've got to so far are pretty easily missable. I'm honestly just doing a walk through with that game.

 

what walkthrough are you using? does it include trophies? i am at a catch-22. i would very much like to go through this on my own intellect, but i'd hate to do all this over again for trophies.

 

the faces on the "alive" people is pretty funny to me.

 

Currently replaying Myst (realMyst, the fully 3D one with traversable environments like a FPS) and revisiting this game is glorious. Extremely refreshing after playing so many of the AAA sensory overload heavy hitters like Quantum Break and Arkham Knight. Playing it on my days off alone in a study room at a really nice library offers some of the most zen experiences I've had in ages. I highly recommend playing in that kinda environment. Enhances the atmosphere, at least for me. Psyched to revisit this world. Hopefully that indie Riven 3D remake will see the light of day as well...

 

Whoever plays MLB The Show, and mainly for Franchise mode. The OSFM rosters are out and can be downloaded off the vault. Worth getting if you're into propsects and accuracy.

 

This is a bummer :/ the whole fun of the game is solving the puzzles

 

I'm not able to play but an hour or so a night but loving every minute of it so far. How far are you in so far?

Doesn't seem too terribly difficult just have to play multiple playthroughs, and then there are the 2 races you have to beat within certain times.

The game requires multiple playthroughs for all trophies from what I can tell. Some seem pretty obscure. Also one in particular you basically have to play the entire game using "tank" controls.

The walk through I've seen that I'll use doesn't really show puzzle solutions it more just shows the Trophies themselves and then lists how to get it obviously there are videos attached that DO show but I tend to try for myself first.

 

Lol I did this for awhile and kept dying so I said I'll come back when I have the RYNO to wreak some havoc.

 

Castle of Illusion is fun. Really pleasing level design, and I like that you're not really actively fighting anything like in Mirror's Edge and Alice 2. I don't know why I keep putting myself through platformers, though, since I suck at them so much.

In other news, on TVHM in the Pre-Sequel, I've reached that point in the game where I'm underlevel and avoiding any side quests with blue rewards until after I finish the story. Grinding sucks.

 

Pretty sure I'm at the end of the game. lol

 

I once sold 5 Gameboy games and then paid an extra $10 to purchase Mortal Kombat for the Gamegear. Since then I decided to never sell a game or system back. I feel like it's never worth the chump change they give you in return.

 

literally the exact reason I still have my PS3.

 

I'm at that point now and I'm hell bent on finding them all before I leave.

 

I just use that playstationtrophies website.
