Video Games: The General Discussion & Community Thread Number Two

I tried my best to enjoy the atmosphere. But Blacktail's combat is just awful, and it made me want to play something else.

'The Forgotten City' is interesting as a narrative so far. But the sense of direction seems a little vague and contrived. (Like I was supposed to think that diving off a huge cliff into a shallow pool would keep me alive, when I took damage after jumping from far smaller heights. Very logical.) And it was hard to feel immersed, when I had two separate characters introducing themselves, and then abruptly canceling the conversation as the ‘time loop’ moved forward.)

(And it also had some pretty egregious load times. But I might've fixed that by verifying the game files somehow.)

---

In other news, I upgraded to a PS5 after all. (Since my launch PS4 was starting to die on me, and it was cheaper than buying a whole new PC to play Elden Ring.)

I just wish most of my Steam wishlist was on the Playstation Store.

So now I’m waiting 16 HOURS for my game data to transfer.

Edit: 20 Hours later, and it claimed their was an error. (But only after it finished.) Fuck me. (And Sony.)

@Mae He isn't particularly smart so he isn't as inclined to the arts of mining as other kobolds are. I'm thinking he is a rare lil goober, green kobolds maybe have a strong belly so they eat pretty much anything plants and everythin. And yessiree physical attributes and mental attributes skills would be great. Stuff that reflects his Charisma, Dexterity and Wisdom. He is good at finding things and albeit at a rather rudimentary level know what plants are noy good for him to eat.

Nibby is a self-imposed hermit. Far more respectable than hobo, lol

@Enkryption

Hermit is just a fancy title for Hobo living in a House they "own". 😂
