January 2022

New year, same task. Managed to complete two bigger games. Will now take a break from gaming this spring. Trying to do other things and focus more on well-being. See you in summer!

Ongoing

Zombie Army Trilogy

Zombie Hitler doing hitlery stuff. Won this just before my break and couldn't finish it in one day. I guess it would be much better played with friends. Will solo the campaign and perhaps try multiplayer after it.


Monster Train

67.7 hours, 35 of 53 achievements

Still hunting for achievements. Have finished the game (hardest covenant/difficulty) now with three out of five factions. I still want those two and perhaps some of the boss ones. Perhaps they are easier to get once I can lower the difficulty.


Changes

Hitman

31.5 hours, 47 of 69 achievements

HITMAN had been on my backlog since 2018. Started playing then but got stuck in the first bigger mission. Then Linux got busted and lost permanently internet connection. Took years until I reinstalled it and finished the game. I felt that this game (reboot) was more puzzle oriented than previous titles. I recall earlier games having more connected story with more action oriented take on assassinations. This one had few big maps filled with different types to approach the tasks. Most of the maps had the same goal: kill two different persons which made things a bit repetitive. The game was enjoyable.


Horizon Zero Dawn

72.2 hours, 74 of 79 achievements
Aloy Croft digs hunting mecha dinosaurs.

This one took quite awhile. Kept hunting those achievements which was much easier once hitting that sweet max level and opening the whole map. If you enjoyed Tomb Raider reboots, it hits in the same alley with similar style of gameplay and theme. Following a heroine climbing in lovely landscapes while hunting enemies with bow. It is a well made game with very little to complain for. Too long with the expansion? Also had some technical issues as I had to play this game on Linux as it didn't work on Windows. :D Proton has made life easier. It is still quite not there but close enough to start lighting that cigar.
