Castlevania Lords Of Shadow looks (and runs) fucking amazingly on PC. that is all

...actually that is not all. I also hate when elitist folk shit on consoles, but you really cant let that shit bother you. Although this will probably be the first time in my 34 years of life (well, except the period from 0 to around 6 I guess) where I wont be buying a console at launch (yes, I have one of those fancy PCs that at least for now shit on current consoles), I also wont bash the new systems, or people buying them. I was a console only gamer for many years (most of my life in fact) and I totally understand why you would want one over a PC, and not even just because of the price.

when i saw the headline I thought "yay I system for me since I cant see 3d anyway" and then I saw the design and laughed >_>

PC

In fact I think for the first time in my life (I'm 34) I will not be buying a console on launch day. X1 isn't even coming out in my country at launch and the PS4 launch line up is terrible (games I can run as well or better on my pc and killzone which as usual looks amazing and I have zero interest in playing, and I bought kz3 at launch, 70€, played like 1 hour if that) so I think I'll try to control my "new tech lust" for a few months at least

Hmm last game I played was technically 1 hour of castlevania lords of shadow and I guess Gabriel would rip me apart with little effort, so lets go with the last game I played proper, Remember Me which I finished today. So how would I fare against Nilin? If I had the memory implant thing on my neck I would be fucked cause she could just remix my memories (which is fucking creepy by the way), if its just a physical fight... she would still kick my ass, she knows all sorts of Kung fu moves apparently

oops duplicate post somehow

game is awesome, I figured you can get the companions back at the places you initially met them, and my game is still bugged with ED even after she (he? it?) was upgraded, I can still have her and another companion, weird. Wont complain tho

edit: well...I finished it, and they did the same shit again jsut like in Fallout 3! The game ends and doesnt drop you back into the world, it just asks if I want to reload a save before the dam battle... really guys? I guess I have to reload a save to do the DLC content, which to be honest, I dont really feel like doing as I think the game got really rushed near the end.

well it clicked alright :P game seems much bigger than 3, its ridiculous the ammount of quests I have in progress in my log (and im not even checking a wiki for now), I havent even been inside vegas yet with mr.house and shit, Ive only been on the outskirt with the kings and whatnot and im 20 hours in. I still hate when you get bumbrushed by a bunch of enemies tho, that shit is never fun and I always have to cheese it (another recent example was at the end of the brotherhood of steel lady quest, when we get outside the bunker, theres 4 or 5 palladins waiting to fuck you up, and as soon as the conversation ends they imediatly start blasting you with gatling lasers...took me a ton of reloads to finally manage to hide before dying and then cheese them with grenades and shit. Or when a caesar posse comes rolling in all of a sudden, and they can hit you from 50miles away :/)

question, can you get a companion back after you tell them to leave? I dropped the brotherhood of steel lady to hang out with cass and finish her quest, but the brotherhood of lady punched guys real nice and I kinda wanna get her back after Ive done Cass's quest.

also aparently you can only have 1 companion, so I guess I was bugged before because I had both ED the robot and boone, and then later ED and the brotherhood lady. Now I send ED to get upgraded, I bet I wont be able to have 2 again, oh well.

starting to click! Setting is still awesome like I said, but things are falling into place now. At lvl 13 I can kill shit a bit better now (although those armored legionaries still take so many bullets), but especially now that im rolling with 2 companions, things are MUCH easier...it kinda feels like the game is made for you to roll with a posse with the big packs of mobs you get, which sucks for early on. I was rolling with Boone and the flying robot dude (that has a quest attached), now I dropped boone for Victoria, she punches stuff real nice :P

Im trying to do as many quests as possible as usual (especially because I want those sweet sweet levels), and I just reached the NCR main base near New Vegas. I havent actually been in New Vegas yet, but my main quest is leading me there now. Hopefully I still have a lot of game to cover, Im at 11-12 hours in atm.

Im trying to not be bothered with negative karma for stealing so much, but its hard man, its a subconscious thing, I cant help it :(

Also I wish I had invested more into energy weapons like I did in Fallout 3, I assumed you only got energy weapons later on so I was putting points into other things but i already got a bunch. Ill start investing in them soon, the level cap is 30 + 20 from the 4 DLCs correct? Still got alot of poitns to use if so, and my lockpick/repair/science are getting up there close to max as it is. So anyway, yeah, starting to click now, and Im sure soon enough it will be right there alongside FO3 for me as one of my favorite games this gen.

edit: this is the part where one of you will tell me there are companion quests and I shouldnt have dropped Boone isnt it? >_>

Shadowrun just got cards

I remember arguing with a couple of friends of mine about the robotic penis the evil robocop whips out before killing the girl, they said I was crazy... She even says she will get used to it what else could it be!

good to know that Karma doesnt mean much, maybe ill stop worrying about it and loot more then. The "10 guys" situations I mentioned might not have been exactly 10, but it sure felt like it the first was in the prison that is overrun by the gangbangers, I had to do some serious stealthing around there, and 1 room I ended up never going to had I believe 6 guys inside who imediatly gunned me down when i entered.

the other one, the most recent and most problematic, is a ranger outpost near Novac. There is a guy in Novac that asks you to check out the Ranger outpost and see if everything is alright (I had been there before going to Novac and all was fine), when you go there everyone is dead and when you exit the building you get ambushed by a Legion pack with a guy on a tower above you, and 5 or 6 guys with plasma rifles, plasma grenades and shit, I can barely hit them and they just anihilate me. Maybe the game is just harder than 3, which is fine.

this makes no sense when I said Fallout 3 is one of my favorite games of the generation and New Vegas is almost the same game >_>
