  1. I picked up Volume 1 and have been playing the shit out of it.  

     

    A general FYI...

     

    Mega Man X3 can FUCK RIGHT OFF!!

     

    I swear, out of all the X series, this one has to be the most frustrating and unfair piece of fucking shit!  

     

    Fire up up the game and IMMEDIATLEY, every enemy in the game can kill you in 4 hits.  Now, compare that to X1 and 2, you at least have a fighting chance.  But this crap,  I’m talking last stage of Castlevania bullshit.  Even when you get the armor upgrades, you’re still getting your ass kicked!  

     

    So, after many failed attempts, I pushed on and got to the final boss..

     

    Un-fucking-real...

     

    If you don’t get Zeros Beam Sabre, you’re pretty much screwed.   This bastard will drain your life so fast you won’t know what hit you.  

     

    So, I finallly...   FINALLY kill the bastard...  does the game end????   OH HELL NO!!   Now, you have to vertically jump up a fucking tube with lava chasing you (insta-kill) and a Mode 7 version of Sigma knocking you off the wall!!!

     

    To be honest, I’m surprised I kept playing.  But fair warning to you all friends...

     

    STAY AWAY FROM X3!  

     

    🖕🖕🖕

     

     

  2. There is NO WAY this mode is “optimized” for 3 max level players.  NONE.  I’ll argue to the death with anyone that says otherwise.  If you load into a public space and you’ve got at least 5-6 players at 360+ you should be able to clear this.  

  3. I’ve been trying to finish 2 more level 1 EPs to finish the sleeper quest.  A public event will happen, there’s 6 there including myself.  Finish the public event and start up and EP and half the people leave.  

     

    If if anyone is on tonight or over the weekend and want to tackle this let me know.  

  4. The latest update just dropped yesterday for Origins and it’s introduced a Discovery Mode as well as New Game +.

     

    the discovery mode removes all hostile npcs and takes you on virtual tours of ancient egypt.  You can also free roam around the map to take in sights for the hell of it using different characters from the game.  Sarah and I went through a few of these last night and it was really informative.  Pretty cool feature IMO.  

     

    The new game + is pretty self explanatory.  It will bump up the difficulty one step, so if you’ve completed the game on normal, NG+ will be on hard etc.  Looking forward to running through this again.  👍

    Wait until the end game. They are actually really easy to get, sit back with the a bow, aim for the knees, dodge when they ram, do the adrenaline attack and run under them to focus on the back knees. You can get insane crits on the back knees.

     

    For me, the Phylakes  (sp) were harder than the elephants

     

    My first encounter with a phylakes in alexandria was probably the hardest for me.  I think i was only at level 14 at the time and he was 18.  After that, i tried to just stay on my horse and attack/retreat/repeat.  

  6. After high praise from @TigerBurge @Sennex And @jSyn66, I’ve been playing the hell out of this over the past 3 weeks.  This game is what the AC series needed.  I fell in love with the location, time period, characters, story and game play.   

     

    I liked  that you didn’t have to constantly buy new armor too.   The upgrade system was really cool and hunting for materials was really fun.  Senu was also a nice addition to the gameplay.  Much better then the eagle vision from previous games.  

     

    I completed the main quest and all other side missions but I took my time.  Again, loved the story and how it ties into the AC mythos.  FYI, this is an easy platinum trophy.  

     

    I’ve also just finished “The Hidden Ones” DLC.   It adds roughly 6 main quest missions and around 6-7 side quests.  The new location is decent.  Not having any new tombs to explore was a let down.  

     

    Im looking forward to the next DLC come March.
