Update 106: May 2022

Did not that great this time around. Too many wins, not enough time. Though I finished a bigger game so I am happy too.

Half-Life 2

The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition

It's a blast from the past and everyone that likes Point'n'Click games should have at least played this once.

Half-Life 2

Gods Will Be Watching

This game is pure RNG hell which you can only save at the end of the chapter. Even if you get one of the better seeds it does not gurantee that you will beat the chapter and then you have to do them all over again. Achievements only pop at the end of the chapter so until then you won't know if what you did was correct.

Half-Life 2

Dreamscapes: Nightmare's Heir - Premium Edition

Standard HOG fare, nothing really special to say about it.

Half-Life 2

Shenmue I & II

I liked the story of this one, but the controlls were godawful. Might have been great at the time it originally came out, but did not age very well (all that love the game please do not kill me). A lot of cut scenes you can't skip, even if you've seen them a million times because you always fail one of the many QTE's because the controlls are not registering that you pressed them...

Here are the games I'm currently working on. Reviews will follow once I'm done with the games:
I've won 9 games + 1 DLC and was gifted a game by a dear friend Lexie, a COD streamer. And I've beaten 4 games, so that makes a total of +6 for for the month of May. My backlog is in tears again.

You may not have done alot of games but I know how tough it was to beat the ones you did. Slow ass shenmue. Annoying rng gods. All round bad monkey
