Playing Kingdom Come Deliverance. Tried fighting a few people / bandits, but they just kill me so easily, apparently I have to take it slow, and do other stuff to get strong (or I can just rush the main quest which is easier, but I don’t to do that).

Thief route is supposedly pretty strong in this one, gets you much needed cash and equipment in the early game, but I am role-playing a good person, who doesn’t steal, so having some trouble with that one. I believe this will take at least 2-3 months for me finish, can end up taking twice that too.

Also started Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition And while I am loving the game, I can see the things that are a bit frustrating. I am just a little way in Forlon Ruins, and keep doing, when I have no energy, so can’t even save and have to jump through few bits again and again.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

    I’ve finally picked up Sparks of Hope again. I’m near the end of world 5 (and probably the game), but that second half of it has been quite a downer because I suddenly hit the level cap. I’m nowhere near completing the skill trees and the game says “No, you don’t get to be any stronger.” This is no Skyrim, where you use the tree to define your class, these are your base abilites! Why the cap? I didn’t even have the extra tree unlocked for everyone when I got to that point!

    In Arkham Knight, I finished off all Robin challenges, so Nightwing is next. Predator maps are always so much harder when your character can’t glide and I think I’m already out of those. Why do we not have some kind of indicator to see where jumping from a high ledge lands you? This has been a problem for me since Arkham City. I just want to be behind an enemy, not on a ledge next to him, or hanging from it or, worst of all, on top of said enemy. I got a bit stumped by a challenge that involved not using your Grapnel. I failed that so many times because it’s just a button I instinctively press.

    I also dug out Antichamber again. It’s been long enough since my first playthrough that the puzzles are almost new again to me. It’s strange that I don’t hear this game being brought up as much as games like The Witness when people talk about 1st person puzzle games.

      Hmm… just looked it up, apparently there’s a level 30 cap, but you can get some upgrades from Fortune Teller side quests (from a reddit post). Have you done all of those?

      Never heard of Antichamber before, maybe because it’s PC only. Went to steam to wishlist it for future, but it turns out it’s already in my library, and it’s old enough that it’s possible my system can run it. Will give it try.
