Oh my god, this one was a nightmare too. I lost multiple pawns, and of course the only riftstones inside were of Remembrance so everything was 50+ levels below me. Still, through perseverance and stubbornness I made it through. MVP of this archer trial was Spiral […] [Original post on mstdn.ca]

Chimeras are barely a speedbump. You'll note I'm following the official rules of fantasy armor: the less it covers, the better it protects.

Honestly, after that friggin' brine dullahan fight at the end of the interminable corridor last night, dragons are a friggin walk in the park now. #gaming #DragonsDogma2 #DarkArisen

So #CityOfHeroes got a new update and two new powersets. I've been on a "selfish support" kick lately so I made a Light Affinity defender. I wanted to avoid the usual "light = holy" theme, so I went Beach Bunny with it. Of course I love wordplay names, so I went […] [Original post on mstdn.ca]

It's such rapidfire insanity I think things are dying through the walls, even. Dozens of bolts that bounce of every wall constantly.

A screenshot from the game Dragon's Dogma 2
Our protagonist is in a cave and firing off bolts of lightning rapidfire which are bouncing all off the walls and filling almost every available space.

Finally heading into Battahl proper, even though I snuck in the back way ages ago to unlock vocations. Now I'm "officially" here. Still quite enjoying #gaming in #DragonsDogma2

Our protagonist is in the bottom right corner, wearing dark robes and coverings, with a bow on her back. She is looking out over a vast desert canyon with a river and spotted areas of trees.

I really ought to go to bed, but I've been quite wrapped up in this game, janky as it is. The bigger they are, the harder they fall. #gaming #DragonsDogma2

Our protagonist is now in full archer gear, wielding a bow.
She is standing atop the chest of a giant cyclops corpse, in a rocky river.

Made the mistake of snagging (☠️) Dragon's Dogma 2 while I've still got other games on the go. This will surely not monopolize all of my time now.

Huh, with all the shitpost images I share, you'd think I would have noticed the weird "Draw something" button in the web interface for mastodon.

Alright, the character creation is a bit limited....all those species in Star Wars and you give those options? My usual girl is gonna be a Mirialan, I guess.

What are we up to tonight, mastodon? Oh, nothing really, nothing at all.

It is quite nice out here though. Bit of a constant breeze. But still enough sun I feel obligated to wear a UV cut rash guard when chilling. #Beach #Tokyo #Japan

Dinner time. Trying a new place today, even though it's in my neighborhood I've never been here before in all the years here. #Tokyo #Japan #food #FoodPorn

Alright, well let's get a little practice in being bad first by #gaming through #Tyranny

[Deadfire endgame] He doesn't look that tough. We can totally take him. Bigger they are, the harder they fall, right? Right? #gaming #PillarsOfEternity #Deadfire

A screenshot from the game Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire
To the right of the screen are five miniscule people standing on a large green outrcropping of adra crystal.
The the left of the screen is an enormous green god about 100 times larger than a person.
Unfortunately, the text dialog box in the middle of the screen disrupts the shot.

Okay, I've put it off as long as I could. It's time to hit the endgame of #PillarsOfEternity #Deadfire for tonight's gaming session. We're overpowered, overgeared, and slightly overcooked.

Remember when this was something we could joke about? Now a 6-8 episode season is "normal" even in the mainstream. We're all the UK now... #shitpost #meme #goodplace #tv

"It ran for 16 years on the BBC."
They did nearly 30 episodes."

Staff took pity on me for foolishly thinking I could sit in the sun on the terrace, and let me move to one of the free tables under a parasol. #Tokyo #Japan #lunch #summer #terrace
