A friend picked up a copy of Halo MCC yesterday, so we introduced him with Halo 3. We got a group of 4, and eventually 5 together and did a multitude of different game modes. One of the first we did was Juggernaut on Epitaph.

The entire battle ended up staying contained to the little balcony in the screenshot. We'd spawn in, make a break for the balcony, and then kill the juggernaut before having it stolen from ourself.

Our match ended with us all accidentally killing each other at the same time. I hadn't even noticed this until going back through the theater for screenshots, but i thought it was a pretty cool coincidence.

We also did One Flag on Guardian. This game was a lot of fun because being separated into teams we had to strategize really hard. Grenades seemed to hold dominance here too as they could be used to clear a hall before the enemy got to us. Combine that with the AR and short hallways and it was a fun challenge.

The winning point ended up being scored by me, as i flanked around the back and led the other team on a drawn out chase, using the geometry to put distance between us. They didn't realize i was making a break for the half of the map we didn't really go on this round, and by the time they did i was already to the point.

The final match we did was Assault with one bomb on Last Resort. We didn't get off to a great start as my time, who was on the offensive, forgot to grab the bomb. We turned around though and grabbed it without wasting too much time.

We ended up going for the high ground and used the fan blade to ascend up the building. We made a break for the landing and made a slam dunk into the point and deployed a bubble shield to hold it.

Sadly our victory was short lived, as when we were on the defense, We got so preoccupied with one of the enemy team players using themselves as a diversion that we didn't realize another one of them was flanking us with the bomb. By the time i had the thought "Oh shit, i bet he's flanking us with the bomb" he had already planted it. We tried to rush over to defuse it but were too late.

Can't for the life of me figure out how to set up a co-op server despite reading the readme, so I can't vouch for that new feature, but this updated fork is solid for single player.

Is it just me or you can actually hear Lisa Trevor screaming in the background music for the first fight against Orochi?

Today's game is Assassin's Creed Shadows. I didn't do any of the main story today and just focused on one of the Legendary Sumi-e. I'm currently in the Autumn Season so it was the fox that i could capture.

I didn't have any synchronization points out in the Region it was in so i had to teleport to one nearby. The one i picked was an Onsen nearby which had this river running through it.

I accidentally took the wrong marker though and went the complete opposite direction than where i meant to go, so instead i went to a synchronization point in the north. It was a waste of time, but i did get this lovely shot of a pond before i fast traveled too the Onsen again.

After setting myself on the right path, i ended up going through this field where i was chased by a Ronin. I ended up ditching him on my horse though because it turns out a horse is faster than a man (who would have guessed?)

I ended up following this stream to my objective, which took me up river. It reminds me a lot of the woods near where i grew up, which had a lot of streams and tall trees.

Finally my objective was reached, which was a tall mountain cliff where the fox would spawn. the issue is that it would only spawn at night and it was only the evening, so i had a bit of time to kill.

I spent the entire time i had just doing a nature photoshoot of the cliffs and just generally exploring the general area. In the camp in the above screenshot i got killed by a Enemy, but luckily the checkpoint didn't send me too far back.

Finally, night time came. I went up to the shrine and the whole thing was lit up with blue light. I snuck up the stairs and observed the Fox chilling out on the cliff. I had to get pretty close to get the screenshot but i got it. I'm a little dissapointed i couldn't get anything more than a drawing of it for my base though. I'd love to have it just chilling out there or as a mount.

Sign here to support the EU's "STOP destroying videogames"

This initiative calls to require publishers that sell or license videogames to consumers in the European Union (or related features and assets sold for videogames they operate) to leave said videogames in a functional (playable) state.

Specifically, the initiative seeks to prevent the remote disabling of videogames by the publishers, before providing reasonable means to continue functioning of said videogames without the involvement from the side of the publisher.

The initiative does not seek to acquire ownership of said videogames, associated intellectual rights or monetization rights, neither does it expect the publisher to provide resources for the said videogame once they discontinue it while leaving it in a reasonably functional (playable) state.

Doom (2016) just launched on GOG, and it's on offer. I purchased straight away as I really enjoyed this one. Wasn't expecting to see more Bethesda games on GOG after Microsoft purchases Zenimax.

Like can we make this a more vocal opinion that Triple-A studios/publishers are like legally required to offer a version.. Or what is your take on that, especially if you have a similar opinion with a deviation in execution. let me know why if you dont agree too!

I'd love to have and collect DRM free titles that last even after a platform is gone, also ubi cant pull off clown shows like the crew or whatever racing game they just erased out of power tripping spite

I found my old GameStop receipt from 2006 in my GameCube games.

Man this brings back memories of simpler times.

I've been on and off playing witcher 3 the last couple months. Just got to the skelliga main quest where Yennefer tells Geralt to get out of his armor and wear something nice to some social event (which btw doesn't make sense, my armor is way better looking than the tunic options). It reminded me of the quest where Triss asked the same thing so I decided to check online if doing so would ruin my Triss romance.

Only to learn that I had already failed the Triss romance because I picked "We can try again" instead of "I love you" when she was at the harbor. Up until that point the vibes between Geralt and Triss has been "we had a thing in the past but it's no more" so I thought that option was right for getting them together again. I had assumed that had no immediate effect but was just one of many dialogues that eventually lead to romancing Triss but nope, that was it apparently. Much discourse online about how there used to be a bug that let you romance with "We can try again" but nobody's talking about how that's the more reasonable option.

And also I'm just now realizing that Novigrad was the Triss area and Skelliga is the Yennefer area and there will be many quests there to get to know Yen, which makes me think did I do Now or Never too early? But like, once you go to the party with Triss the city is just in chaos so I felt obligated to follow that questline to the end. Also there's the relative low levels of those quests and the way Geralt seemingly gets stranded in Skelliga when he travels there that made me think everything that's not a red skull on novigrad comes before Skelliga story-wise.

When I first heard that you need to choose between Triss and Yennefer in this game choosing Triss felt like a no brainer since she's been around the last 2 games and declares she'll never leave Geralt's side in the last one. And it rubs me the wrong way how Geralt acts all hot around Yennefer unprompted but doesn't act warm around Triss even if you try to. I get that Yennefer was his wife or whatever in the books but like the last 2 games still happened and in the beginning even Yennefer says Geralt and Triss had a nice thing going.

So do I go back to end of now or never and change the answer? Do I go back further and leave novigrad when it was in chaos? Even further before the questline began?

But also also while looking up how to not fuck up romance I read that apparently Yennefer's endgame quest is amazing and Triss's is an afterthought.. and I do want to play the good quest instead of the bad one..
