Properly started The Witcher 2 on PC, good it does look lovely. Can't play Xenoblade.....my Wii is going off to the Nintendo service centre :(

Also playing Demon's Souls, Dark Souls gave me the itch to go back to it and finish it before the server is taken down since I have the US version.

I burned myself out on Sly Cooper so I've abandoned that for a bit (hopefully not forever like I normally do).

 

I've gone back to Final Fantasy XIII after a very long break. I'm on Chapter 5 which was enough for me to not want to start over and while I have a vague recollection of the plot I can't remember what all the names refer to, pulse. cocoon etc and all the different sections of the armed forces. which doesn't bother me too much as I'm sure it will all make sense at some point.

 

It's reminded me however of my problem with certain RPG elements though. I have a total fear of committing to an upgrade path. I can't help feel like the second I start upgrading a weapon I'll pick up a better one and will have wasted my limited upgrade materials on the one sat there in my inventory like an accusation.

 

I don't really get the fighting either. I think it's because it's just too much for me to work out tactics for fighting, like what enemies are weak to certain types of attack, staggering and all the ailments and stuff so I just use autobattle and hope for the best. Calling up the oidin horse thing is the most confusing to me though. I had this awesome looking thing on screen and it did about as much damage as if the enemy had stubbed it's toe.

 

I'd been playing for more than an hour before I remembered you could change over to medic and heal yourself, lol.

 

I am enjoying it though. I just hope the fighting doesn't get to a stage where you have to actually know what you're doing to progress.

That feeling when you're getting the most kills, rescues, and medals during Mass Effect 3 multiplayer... You're getting so many credits and you are so close to getting that super expensive pack... and then suddenly a Banshee starts walking on air and you lose your game connection.

Yeah, making you lose all your stuff like that when they drop you is a terrible design decision. It also encourages people who have to leave for some reason to not log out and instead just idle through the rest of the match. Maybe there should be some kind of penalty for quitting/disconnecting early, but it should be more like a 25% reduction rather than losing all of it.

 

Another stupid thing about it is that when someone quits the points they've gotten throughout the match vanish from the match, which means it ALSO reduces the score of their teammates. That's just completely fucking retarded.

I'd say it's worth full price, but if you've got the patience (or a backlog like I do), you could safely wait out a price drop. I only rented it since the local video place gave me a free rental coupon, but I intend to buy it once I get my funds back up.
