I need to figure out the fancy formatting yall use, but in October I finished:

  • Vampire: the Masquerade - Coeteries of New York
    – I liked it, i wish more of the choices mattered, but it was a fun little visual novel
  • The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante
    – I liked it even more. Choices mattered and it felt way more like the Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Books I enjoy so well.
  • Styx: Master of Shadows
    – This was genuinely great. I suuuuucked at it at first, which made me feel olde, but by the end I was vibing. I def’ly plan to go back and 100% it.

I also got started on Beholder, BioShock Remastered, Distant Worlds: Universe (completed to PA criteria), and Quantum Break.

The only Oct Challenge Me! i finished was Styx: Master of Shadows (on a related note, if anyone has figured out how to get their controller to work on Psychonauts in a Linux environment Id love to hear the details).

All in all, I think it was a pretty solid first month on BLAEO. It was nice to play (and finish some) games that would prolly still be collecting dust. Unfortunately, October was a pretty lucky month for me on SG, so my backlog actually increased lol

I’m terrible at formatting too. If it helps you can use the blaeo geneator and it formats for you. Makes the banners and stuff. I’ve never heard of the first two games, but I like choice games so I’ll take a look! Is this your first time playing Bioshock? Both that and Quantum Break are super fun

thanks, ill check that out.
honestly yea, ive owned it for checks receipts holy shit, 11 years.
QB has been pretty fun, i wish it ran better on my Potato PC, but I grew up w 56Kbps, so im trained for stutter and lag.

Welcome and congratulations on your assassination! :D

As stef said - most of us use the generator and play around with the code. ^_^

Generator + ChatGPT and screenshots do wonders :)

Beauregarde

ChatGPT huh,,, expect me to hassle u on the discord for prompt advice ;)

fernandopa

Hahaha I’m traveling so my reply will be slow, but other than that feel free to. Claude/ChatGPT are pretty good when you provide screenshot examples of what you want to achieve + some code that’s not working the way you expected

I’ve been curious about Styx. What kind of game it is? I dont know why I had the impression it is something like Metal Gear but with medieval fantasy? XD

Besides some of the options mentioned above, I could also reccomend some good scripts that give you a simmilar functionability to the generator.
Cant remember if it was BLAEO+ or Enhanced BLAEO they are both very good. I think one gave you the formatting and the other added nice stuff as including the game lenghts on your lists.

Its something like that. I know im dating myself but its a lot like Tenchu Stealth Assassin. Its a sneaky sneak around game with some hilarious abilities (make a clone, hide a clone in a cabinet, have a clone yoink a dude into the cabinet) and ragdoll physics which makes throwing bodies off cliffs just the best. The story was actually like, really good, which surprised me for a stealth game. It takes a couple levels to really start to figure it out but i highly recommend it.

I have BLAEO+, Ill check out Enhanced BLAEO, thanks.
