I started playing Planescape Torment, finally. Then I abandoned it for about two weeks. Even better, I can’t get it to run on my main PC, so I can only play it on weekends. Expect this game to have very few and very spread out reports because of it. In this one, I’ll talk about what Planescape Torment is, how it plays and how I feel about it.Continue reading
Castlevania: Circle of the Moon is the first Castlevania game on the GameBoy Advance. I’ve never beaten it before, so I decided to give it a try. In this first posting, I’ll give you an overview of the game mechanics and features, since these vary a lot from game to game.Continue reading
I decided to track my last bunch of attempts at wining Pixel Dungeon, just so I can get an overview of the usual outcome and see how hard the game really is. I’ll also try to break it up a bit with a few thoughts, so here goes… Oh, and I’m playing mostly with the warrior. He seems like a great beginner character.Continue reading
Heart of Winter is pleasantly surprising me with the quality of the content. I expected a high-level hack and slash fest, but the parts I’m going through have great writing, great voice acting, tough combat and interesting puzzles. It’s the whole package.Continue reading
Last time, I told you about my party and I’ve beaten the last two big baddies of Icewind Dale. Now it’s time to get serious. I’m going to start to play Heart of Winter, which I know nothing about.Continue reading
I bought Torchlight 2 when the free weekend was on, but I was in the middle of other games at the time, so I installed it a few weeks later. The title should probably tell you where I’m at with the game now, but keep reading if you want to know the details.
As I said, I’ll devote this report mostly to describe my party. Their names should already be familiar to any frequent visitor of this blog. Basically, I decided to start playing a roster of characters through all of my RPGs, hoping to improve the experience that way. Before any report, though, I have to finish chapter VI.Continue reading
I’m stretching the reports, even after my decision to do one chapter per report. I think I’ll have to shorten it further until I feel I have enough written for a decent post. Icewind Dale is a combat heavy game, but other than that and the story, very little is happening. Ironically, this chapter wouldn’t fit into a single posting, even though it spanned weeks.Continue reading
Full disclaimer, I kind of liked Diablo 3. It didn’t captivate me nearly as much as Diablo 2 or even plain old Diablo did, but I can’t be absolutely sure if it’s the game’s fault or just mine. I can be reasonable sure, but not absolutely.Continue reading
This is the second part of my Earthquake mission write-up for Age of Wonders. Last time, I lost half an hour of game time due to my hero dying and autosave deciding to turn itself off for some reason. In this posting, we make up for those 30 minutes and see where it takes us next.Continue reading
