Fate/Grand Order
I finished all my rank up/interlude quests while riding the high from CCC. Took an entire day, Nitocris is the queen of clearing waves. Kintoki is the king of destroying bosses. I ran out of QP from upgrading skills, I think this officially means I've been playing for too long...
Now that I'm finished with it, there were actually some really nice tracks in this game. The Memories of CCC is an official medley of a lot of the good tracks, though I have others that I like on their own.
Fate/Extra CCC
It's really a god damn shame this game didn't get a proper english translation. If it had one I could easily call this one of the most enjoyable experiences but having to follow an out of game so-so translation and using a translate app for character-specific things left me...
Fate/Extra CCC
I've fought 2 of the 3 secret bosses, these long and difficult boss fights really push the largest problems with the gameplay to the forefront. Compared to Extra, CCC did make the problem of rng being a huge factor in winning less of a problem but the longer a fight goes on the...
Fate/Extra CCC
Melt was a lot different than the rest of the sentinels, from the start she was far more aggressive and boss-like than any other character. Super sadistic and completely willing to kill, one line in particular sounded like she was enjoying the situation far too much. Punishing...
Fate/Extra CCC
Passionlip is a tragically designed character, it makes sense considering BB is a psychopath bitch but that whole labyrinth felt kind of depressing. Nothing compared to Jinako's labyrinth, that was actually hard to get through. I can't say I relate fully but I could sympathise...
Dragalia Lost
x2 drops for Imperial Onslaught have begun. Burnt through almost all my stamina recharges already, I'm just going to get enough medals to get the High Mercury wyrmprint from the trade when it's available although I don't think I'll even have enough recharges for it. I was hoping...
Fate/Extella Link
Was not expecting the final boss to have three phases. This was a huge improvement over Fate/Extella in the gameplay department, this one is actually a game that can be recommended to people.
Story wise it was pretty simple, basically just a side story to Fate/Extella...
Fate/Extella Link
What kind of sick bastard decided to lock Altera behind a late stage. It's a good thing they let me buy yung Altera as DLC, I use her for every Extra Stage. I'll probably use regular Altera for the Very Hard re-run of the main game. I was gonna use Scathach somewhere in there...
Fate/Grand Order
Whenever I need an AoE servant for the final wave I always just choose Altera because even if I don't have anyone with an advantage I can at least have my favourite do it. I am able to 4-Turn the final node for this event though. I'm kind of just ignoring the event shop. The...
Fate/Extra CCC
Well I did end up using save states on this boss. Noble Phantasm's are like playing Rock-Paper-Scissors and using the Gun command, my best option is to try and stun her on the 5th option so she can't use it on the 6th. Melt and Lip have made their appearance. Melt's crouching...
I was wondering why an order was taking so long to arrive and realised I accidentally mixed up the address numbers. I'm probably shit out of luck on this one, it took me too long to realise my mistake. Man I feel so ashamed because I was trying to be super careful this time too and it still...
They made a bullet hell mini-game for April Fools. Final difficulty is actually kind of nasty but it's really forgiving with hits/lives so it's mostly just a try and get a high score thing. Fucking birds are more dangerous than the dragon.
There was also the 6-month anniversary stuff but I...
Dragalia Lost
I might not have a million billion stamina refills after this. I'm starting to consider my 5* weapon options. Unfortunately all my favourites are Axe characters (Karina/Lin You/Sazanka) so doing that would be a huge grind compared to simply choosing a different weapon type to...
Dragalia Lost
Thanks to the x2 speed option for auto and the double drops for dragon trials, I'm just gonna let it run so I can finally build up some sort of supply of scales. I don't need them right away but hopefully getting up to speed with them now will let me keep up my scale stock with...
Dragalia Lost
HMS randoms can be disappointing sometimes. Looks like they're going straight into an easter event soon, new characters and not alts. I feel like a lot of holidays aren't worth making alts for and Easter is one of them, fortunately they realised they literally have a race with...
19) I don't really play indie games a whole lot, I guess I'd say the Deltarune demo if that counts since that was this year. The extra boss was fun and the music was nice, the effort to give it a legit battle system is appreciated.
20) I can't say I've played a game that truly scared me, I...
Dragalia Lost
I thought I'd saved up enough mana/mats for the day I get a new character but I didn't save up enough for four new characters. I didn't get buff Ranzal but I got Lin You so I think I'm the real winner here.
Dragalia Lost
When it comes to giving out freebies and collab stuff; I sleep. When UI changes and double wyrmprints are added; real shit. The 1.5gb update was brutal however.
I'm still not sure why they're celebrating a 6-month anniversary but fuck it, gib nu stuf.
I watched Noragami S2 finally. Soundtrack is amazing, OP/ED's included. I forgot how good it gets, its been 4 years since I read it. I'm gonna keep reading from where S2 left off, the art is better than I remembered. Me watching a full season of anime, what is this 2015.
Fate/Extella Link
It's interesting when two characters voiced by the same person have a conversation in a game, you wouldn't know from listening. The Day 5 mission seems to be the Scathach battle so I figure I'll save using Cu for that and actually give Astolfo a chance for a Day 4 mission. I...
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 18: Game you really should've played by now
Nier: Automata
I mean I own it, bought it 2 years ago. It's just sitting there.
Fate/Extella Link
On to Day 4 stages, looks like this is where the stage choice determines your ending but the alternate choices have higher level recommendations. I had some trouble getting EX rank on a Day 3 stage with the enemies that throw bombs tanking my Damage Taken ranking. I ended up...
Dragalia Lost
I've decided to just try beat High Midgardsormr with PUB groups once a day, since I found out that it doesn't have a daily bonus but rather a weekly bonus. It'll take about 3 months to MUB the dragon you get from it this way but I'd rather wait a long time again for people to...
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 17: Favorite genre
RPGs. I'm fine with Action RPGs (Ys and Tales) but usually prefer turn-based (Etrian and half of everything).
Also definitely don't have anything for the previous day, games are just something I play for enjoyment so none of them have...
Fate/Extella Link
I forgot this was out, it came in the mail today. They said this one wasn't a sequel but more like a 1.5 game where they spent all their time refining the gameplay into something bearable and the story wasn't the focus. I can already tell. Larva Altera is the greatest...
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 16: A game that inspires you
I couldn't think of anything for Day 15 but on second thought I'll say Breath of the Wild. No particular reason, it's just a good game. It's not perfect but it's an experience that's for sure.
but I actually have no answer for...
I beat High Midgardsormr in Dragalia Lost for the first time, I'm pretty happy at how well it went. I wasn't the dead weight I thought I would be, although I've found out that the DPS guys and I all do the baiting so there's less pressure on me to hug the boss constantly. I guess now I just pray...
Stella Glow
Rusty is a one man army. Design team decided to make a thief character with physical attack higher than most characters in the game.
Dragalia Lost
I forgot they were adding new Void battles. The Frost Hermit gets Maribelle'd super hard. Dark Golem is pretty much just like the Fire...
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 14: A game that never gets old
Metroid Prime I guess, this feels like a cop-out answer because it's my favourite game but I don't think there's any game that will never get old for me. There is absolutely always a tipping point where I will no longer enjoy...
Tales of Vesperia
Looking at what it takes to 100% this game is daunting, it seems slightly less frustrating than Symphonia (3 playthroughs, 2 of those just to get an item each lol) and Abyss (stuff outright locked to NG+) in those aspects but like there's a lot of shit to do. Also it's a shame...
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 13: Favorite NPC or party member
I feel like this one is super broad because most of the time party members are playable characters and there's so many god damn NPC's in games.
If it's pure NPC then I'd choose Cass from Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold, most of the...
Tales of Vesperia
They actually added a patch that fixed the control stick option to not jump the instant you move the stick in any slightly upward direction. It's like 35 hours too late but I'm going to use it now. Moving around the world map with only 4 directions; especially the areas that...
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 11: Five of your favorite video games
1 ) Metroid Prime
2 ) Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
2.5 ) 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors
3 ) Sonic Generations
4 ) Yoshi's Woolly World
5 ) Xenoblade Chronicles X
I put in 999 as 2.5 because I still...
I watched a cam-rip version of the second Fate/stay night Heaven's Feel movie. I saw some things about it and figured I'd just go ahead and watch it before getting spoiled, chances are I'll rewatch it when the BD comes out and then two more times after that while waiting for the finale.
Really...
Fate/Grand Order
It's been a while since I've had an event where I can't equip my good CE's to make things go by fast. There's servant specific bonuses as well but it's mostly 3* servants and the welfare, which means everyone will have them for the bonuses but they're weak so it feels like...
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 10: Favorite game as a kid
Diddy Kong Racing, I played it a lot as a kid when all I had was my brothers N64 that he didn't want anymore. I considered going with Mario Tennis instead but I think I generally played DKR a lot more. Mario Party 3 was good too.
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 9: Favorite villain
I tend to like the villains that aren't really 'evil' but just following their own beliefs/goals or have valid reasons for their actions, but most of the time they just end up joining your side at some point in the game and become heroes...
Re: Your 3DS games from favorite to least favorite
Moved some stuff and added Etrian Nexus and IV. Nexus is great, it's everything I wanted. IV on the other hand isn't quite as good, it lacks a lot of the QoL additions of later games and its difficulty lies more in minor annoyances. But even...
pay troubles with work. I don't expect the average worker there to do their job properly so I shouldn't have expected the cash office workers to be doing their job properly either. aaaah i dont like confrontation.
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 8: A game that not enough people talk about
Stella Glow. I would say Etrian Odyssey but it's pretty well known within it's niche which I can't say for SG. It really scratches that itch for a grid based SRPG that isn't class focused but character focused...
Dragalia Lost
I accidentally merged the event wyrmprints I got so my +150% point bonus became a +50% bonus, though it's a good WP and I had two silver keys from Valentines so I unbinded it fully to get +100% at least. I haven't started the story yet, it's pretty late and I'll see how far I get...
Re: 20 Day Video Game Challenge - Day 7: 5 of your favorite OSTs
I'll do a full soundtrack list and an individual list, I recently went through and made a youtube playlist of all my favourites so this works out well. I'll be ignoring Brawl/Ultimate for full OST since they kind of piggyback on...
