Last day of 2018
So I have managed to make an update before the world year ends! :)
December was really busy month as the Advent time demanded slight preparations at least. And to make it even better, my new kitchen (I have ordered it during September) got delivered one week before Christmas! My father helped me a lot, as he build it himself alone as I had to go to work. It ended up well. I have spent Christmas time in a new kitchen and even managed to clean my sweet home somehow! ;)
And now it’s time for some playing!
During my short time on this site I looked around a bit. And I like some of the tags or lists that some members are using. I hope that I wouldn’t be breaking any rule if I get inspired by them and make similar lists as well. Also some of the update posts are very inspirational! ;)
I have decided to use to mark my Steamgifts wins.
My overall progress have not changed so much, got three new SG wins. Still not bought any games on Steam (or other) sale, as I am trying to be practical - I have enough games to play already. Not sure how long will my resolve last. I have already picked some games to buy…. X)
Not so much of an actual update:
So it's over me. I am somewhat confused from the whole experience. The story was nice, I would say sometimes even a little bit captivating. I liked the graphic design of different times and the music was pleasant. My favorite "mini-game" were cards, also there was best music track. X) And now to the bad side. I didn't like the 3D era much, as you couldn't change your point of view you could easily miss something hidden behind tree or rock. Also the fighting in 3D was tiresome due to the looking area. Next part are "mini-games", mostly not optional, they are just part of the story flow and you must go through them. There was a lot of them - Platformer, Shoot 'em up, Brawler, 2D fighter, Match-3, Rhytm... Most of them tested my patience to the limit as I got really frustrated and almost broke down my keyboard - that was not really what I have expected from this game. I have played on middle difficulty "good old arcade". When I was far after half of the game I lost it and put the difficulty to "an adventure" mode, I meant to left it just for one particular mini-game, then I forgot and completed the game on it. Honestly? I should have played it on this mode from the beginning, maybe I wouldn't be so hateful towards it. Also I wonder how hard would it be on the last difficulty? I don't mind that there is no voice acting, but I didn't like parts when there was some serious talk and no sound, music, anything, just the tapping of character dots. I know that sometimes is better no sound, for the tension to rise up, but here it seemed unnecessary, also most of the time I wished for those talks to be over soon. My next big problem are the characters, well to be precise, if there wouldn't be that one particular girl I would have rated it higher. Through the time I have started to really hate her, also I have found it disturbing that she (and everyone else, but her was the most disturbing) had the same expression all the time! I just can't bring myself over the fact that the developers couldn't made three different face sets for (at least) the main characters.
I think I was too much looking forward to game same as the first Evoland and got somewhat disappointed.
Other than that I have almost completed Hollow Knight on GoG and it’s really an amazing game! So beautiful, with one of the best soundtracks I have ever heard. I have decided to start it on Steam right away! XD
Also I like the idea with Theme months and have already picked some games I could play next time, so maybe I will participate. ;)
Other than that I am trying to list my games and tag them nicely, but it’s still a work in progress. I have made one list with picked games from my wins which have top priority!
I want to wish you all Happy New Year!!! All the best! :D
Small image thanks to Mskotor!
:3
That plush is really cute!
And yeah, Hollow Knight is amazing. I consider it the best Metroidvania I’ve ever played
Aw, thank you! :3
Exactly! Can’t wait for the new playable character three Yay for Hornet! :D
I wonder if they plan for expanding the story and world, if they ever make Hollow Knight 2. o.o
Hollow Knight is best grass cutting simulator I played.
I did spend beginning of the game just running around, cutting grass ; D I also almost resigned near beginning, as map layout made me confused and I found cartographer way too late…
Also you can re-size image if you want:

I do agree with Fnord, this plushee is really cute :D
Haha, yes it’s amazing what all you can destroy. Usually I go and break something and I am so sorry about it and then I run all around and destroy everyhing in my path. ;D
Yeah, I can understand that. I found Deepnest really hard to navigate even with map.
Oh, didn’t know how to do it, thank you. :3
Yes, he is like alive! :3
Wasnt kidding about it being large. Nice little plush that is
lol XD
I had to hide it, spammed all the space. :D
Thank you, he is adorable! His Nail is even on magnets so you can move it! ;D
