Jumping adds so much to combat. At least I find it does. Everything about Elden Ring just seems so much more polished compared to other From Software games.

Alright! Finally killed Godrick after messing around and exploring Limgrave for the better part of 20+ hours. Stormveil Castle was fun running through for the most part. I'm heading into Lunaria of The Lakes now. Right off the top, I HATE those massive lobsters that stun lock you with that fucking spit attack. !@#$

Man... I just want Diablo 4.

Very true. Maybe Musky boy or Bezos will buy them out. Lol

That’s a much better month. Tribes and curse have been 2 I wanted to take a crack at. FIFA will be a nice bonus.

I just killed the dragon in Lake Agheel last night. I was surprised how easy it was. Never the less, I am loving this game! I'm about halfway through Stormveil Castle so I may finish that up tonight before the rest of my week is shot to shit. Lol!

Episodes 7 & 8 are live on Youtube. We're inching ever closer to hell.

Progress update... After reaching level 53, I've finally killed Morgit The Fell Omen. I honestly thought the tree sentinel boss was more of a bitch, but now they're both dead.

Happy Birthday @Mikepjbell 🤘

About 10 hours in, and I'm loving it. I've managed to kill a few bosses, had a few surprises thrown at me, and died. But that's fine.

Thanks folks!! 🤘🏻

Ironically, I just picked up the latest issue of Game Informer and I hate how they've laid out the magazine now. Lol

A few things I've noticed. Thank you for the jump button! Movement seems a lot swifter then previous souls games. Not a fan of the 2 button press to go two-handed. The world is beautiful.

Having a bit of time this morning, I jumped on to see if I could get a power level increase by running that stupid preservation mission. During that run, I realized just how much bungie completely ruined power progression with the whole "pinnacle/powerful" drop nonsense. Let's go back to the end of Destiny 1 and the beginning of D2. In both cases, it didn't matter what you did, whether that be strikes, crucible, missions, vanguard rank up, etc. You were ALWAYS guaranteed a power/light level increase depending on RNG of course. So, if I had very little time to play on a certain day, I could jump on. Fly down to the cosmodrome. Run some patrols until my vanguard rank went up and boom. A guaranteed drop that had a chance to be better then something I currently had. Vanilla D2 was similar, and yes, I realize there wasn't much to do then, you still at least felt like you were making progress regardless. That's one of my biggest issues right now with Destiny is making progress. When this ridiculous change was made to hamper power level progression with the pinnacle system, It instantly put most casual/solo players at a disadvantage because now, they couldn't do those little things here and there that would offer increases in power by say, replaying a story mission or ranking up the vanguard. Which was another thing that also burned everyone was having those drops be reduced to 10-15 below current power level. Locking a lot of the power progression behind higher difficulty activities is so flawed as a lot of people will simply not do them. Having the freedom of choice to do whatever and make progress is taken, pun intended, away simply to artificially extend play time has not only ruined a lot of what made this game so good in the past, but also turned a lot of veterans players away from it. I could go on about a lot more, but for the most part, I want my time respected. As it stands right now, jumping on for a half hour isn't worth it if I can't make any progression in power level. This system needs to be dropped IMO.

Happy Birthday @bluffin109 🤘

Interesting. I like the toy esthetic graphics. I may have to check this out.

I will be beginning my Elden Ring journey tonight. I do hope the neighbors enjoy me saying fuck a lot more than usual. 😉

I loved monthly VG mags! I would go out almost every week and buy up whatever issue was out at the time. EGM, PSM, Official Xbox, Official Dreamcast, Gameinformer. I always enjoyed seeing different mags reviews on the same games just to have those differing opinions. I still pick up gameinformer evry so often, but it really isn’t the same anymore. Most of these sites/mags show so much favouritism that actually shitting on a bad game is frowned upon. Especially if the developer/publisher paid for a good review.

Tonight, We'll be talking about some really old games that have a special place in our memories, and discuss the recent fad of remakes and remasters that publishers/developers seem to be so crazy about lately. Other topics will pop up throughout the show. We'll be live at around 8pm EST on twitch.tv/sixsidesofgaming

The first episode of The Book of Tales is said and done. The VOD will be up on our twitch channel but we're going to wait to batch release the entire series on Youtube once the book is done. Twitch WWW.TWITCH.TV Twitch is the world's leading video platform and community for gamers.

Episode 6 is up on Youtube now. Needless to say, The party had a hard time following instructions.

I can't wait to play Skyrim on PS6... 😉

The Mass Effect trilogy remaster that just dropped is a decent one. It improved on the first games combat mechanics to line it more with the other 2 games in the trilogy.

The Jackass deserves any and all flak he's getting or will get.

Shameless producer plug…. She is good at what she does though. 😘🥰
