Okay, I have a few characters at lower levels.

Sweeeeet!

Fingers crossed. I have small kids, so anything could ruin my plans.

Hey @rhamorim and @Papageno, I sent out friend requests.
Does Borderlands two already have a voice system?

Hey legowarrior, I accepted your invite but you never showed up. Hopefully we’ll get to play together next time!

Sorry man, we just finished playing and I didn’t see your request pop up, but next time for sure. I wonder if you couldn’t join our game because I hadn’t accepted your req yet? Bummer. It was the first time I played BL2 coop.

Sorry guys. Parenting stuff came up right before hand. Too beautiful of a day, according to my wife.

Hey, no worries. Honestly it’s a crime to be inside today in Portland, with not a cloud in the sky and with temps approaching 70F. I’ve still gotta get out there.

Indeed it was. Which is why I did, and climbed some of Mount Hood.

That was my game, walk on snow and try not to break through because then your feet get wet.

I did a weird action RPG roller coaster… Path of exile… Grim Dawn… even a bit of Diablo 3.

I still have problems with these games. I’d love a good psychologist to tell me why I dislike a good aarp but love a good Bethesda janky open world. (and btw aarp might be the reason why)

I am almost reluctant to know the answer,

Though I sort liked grim dawn in the end.

Grim Dawn’s the best of the bunch.

Not to diagnose, but it’s certainly true that these games are more stat/build focused than Bethesda’s games. Maybe you’re just more in it for the exploration?

I played this. Its Hearthstone meets WH40K done to a janky indie level. I am really enjoying it a lot.

Sadly I fear they have mirrored Hearthstone too much and really the fun is tied to humans being around (you can and I do play against AI like Hearthstone but its not the focus)

That said now is a GREAT time to play. Its free and there is a ton of fun to be had. If you like janky CCG’s catch this one before it disappears, its very fun.

I love all the depth and the different legions interacting. Somehow SF combat works really well for the Hearthstone mechanics.

Spent about four hours trashing 30,000 tons of British convoy in Wolfpack last night. That was the vast majority of my gaming time for the weekend.

I flew my A-10 a lot. I think i am at the intermediate level of systems knowledge for that machine. Plenty to do campaign scenarios with it.

One flight that took several tries I was going for a covert decapitation strike some ways inside non hostile non friendly territory. The terrorist leader had holed up in a big villa in a valley in the neighbouring country.

So the plan was to fake a crash on the radio, then go low up the valley evading radar and air defence missile systems, bomb that villa to smithereens and fly home for milk and cookies.

The weather was godawful. Wind, fog, low clouds and a fucking thunderstorm.

I had programmed the bombs to be dropped on the target waypoint in pairs with a ten foot spacing. Edit the target waypoint manually to be the actual position and elevation of the target so the computer would hit it.

The flying went quite right up until the target hove into view. I selected the bombs, but the program I made didn’t come up. The hud did not show CCRP preplanned release mode but CCIP manual mode.

I had no time or headspace to fiddle with it, screaming up a cvalley at 300 knots at a compound full of angry terrorists that were already sending streams of red teacer my way.

So I went pickle pickle pickle and manually plastered my eggs all over the place. As I pulled up in a frantic turn, not wanting to get into the clouds, but having to turn around because the valley fucking ended right there, my mighty hog took a slew of hits.

It started beeping and screaming warnings. I overflew the burning villa again jinking from the tracer. Left engine was not making thrust. Not on fire? Not on fire.

Its a good thing hogs are overbuilt like they are. I managed to limp back home on the one engine, gliding it in at the end but not wrecking the plane any further.

What a game.

Kept an eye on one of my ootp19 perfect team teams as it won the division. Tried out Warparty for a bit, but most of my time was spent on Grim Dawn. It has been about a year since I’ve played Diablo, so it felt like it was time for an arpg. Also will probably get a skirmish or two in with AoE2 and Offworld Trading Company.

Vysh I am not sure what all that meant, it seemed like code to me, but I myself played this Grim Dawn thing and kinda liked it. What is an ootp19 perfect team?

Out of the Park 19. It is a baseball game, and Perfect Team is one of the game modes. A number of us have been playing it the past couple of months.

Yeah, I didn’t get a lot of gaming time this weekend for a multitude of reasons, but I did get to play a bit of Borderlands 2 with @Papageno (which was good fun!) and a bit of Grim Dawn (I love the new areas!) so it’s all good, I suppose. ;)

Yeah, that was a lot of fun, but man am I rusty. Played a bit more yesterday solo, getting the hang of some of the mechanics again. I’m up to L 12 now. Not sure if the upcoming free upgrade to BL2 is going to apply if you don’t own the Handsome Collection (which is on deep discount right now on Steam)–does anyone know?
Oh, and I started Yakuza 0.

Oh, so much fun there. Loved that game.
