T-t-triple fail!

I main Malzahar but, fucking a man, my performance AGAINST him is disgraceful. But just look at that animeboy in enemy team!

League of legends. Yumi got S+. I didn't even knew it existed.

My first contact with the Perisno mod for M&B Warband, i had read a lot of good about it, time to finaly check.
It took some time to load before accessing finally the character setup, i guess there must be a lot of scripts to load in this mod.

Anyways

Spawned near Leuven in the Tolrania kingdom.
Went in the city, to the tavern and recruited some camp defenders, as i was on horse i wanted to have some early fire support.
Moved around a bit and a bandit troop ran into my party, the bandits troops was a dozen of war prisoners and war slaves.
Charged and managed to take out 2 of those guys, but they managed to kill my horse in a couple of hits then surrounded by 6 or 7 i went down as soon as i touched the ground.
Looking at the camera i noticed that my camp defenders didn't manage to hit a single enemy, and as expected they were very bad in melee and went down very fast.
 

Ok, reminds me a bit of Prophecy of Pendor early game difficulty curve, let's try again

Created the same character in the same location, this time i joined the ongoing tournament in  Leuven and managed to bring down several enemies, my side was losing each rounds but due to my good fighting (taking out a few people before being destroyed myself) the organizer were keeping me in the tournament.
Went on for 3 rounds and in the 4th , it was a 3 vs 3 , i was given a bow and one of my teammate spawned with a bow too, while in the opposite team only 1 guy was assigned this weapon.
The less i can say is that this round went very fast as both team didn't spawned far and my arrows didn't really had good damage (probably being still level 1 with low Draw skill didn't helped) and the 2 sword guys of the opposite team destroyed our sword gal quickly before annihilating us in turn

Ok, that was brutal but expected.

So after roleplaying and greeting everyone men and women, getting some positive points with the king in the following feast, i went to the tavern.
Hired 5 camp defenders, talked to a guy that told us there was a few rogue nobles rampaging in a village, i accepted the quest.
Then i took a bounty hunt from the tavern keeper , the target was also in the same village where the rogue nobles were.

After running around recruiting people in the villages surrounding Leuven, at the head of 17 troopers i decided it was time to get rid of a few nobles.
I avoided the bandits squads around as i remembered how hard it could be and i wanted to keep my full troops alive for the actual mission.

We arrived and leading my troops we attacked.
I positionned my ranged gals above and bhind and setup my infantry in a defensive position, then we were waiting for the few nobles to come to our ambush.

"few" nobles. Well in fact it was more than 20 of them, all riding horses, and half of those guys were heavy cavalry.

... they utterly destroyed us in seconds.

Ok, definitively Prophecy of Pendor type of early game
I'll have to get some levels before getting into quests

looks like to get a good start the best method is to

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

go into tavern and buy lot of slaves from the ransom brokers , you can then get a +/- 50 army if you have enough money and can beat bandits squads with enough slaves surviving so they can upgrade to better troops, then sell the loot and prisonners then get more slaves.

I made the foolish mistake of trying to play level 3 without my mapping software or the "Dumapic" spell, which acts like a compass. The result was being trapped in a maze of corridors that have pits and spinners at almost every intersection. By the time I got back out half my party was dead, and the survivors were still broke from the last round of resurrections.

Either I use a save state, or take a break from this game. I have seriously underestimated how difficult it is.

Ah those teleporter and spinner tiles ... the devs of those old games like the dungeon master, eye of the beholder and wizardry series loved so much to make those traps.
Probably how much i hated those levels , such a pain to make their maps

I'm trying the Pathfinder Kingmaker game, and they certainly made some decisions putting this together. I can't tell if none of them have played a video game made in the last 20 years, or if they were actively hostile to the idea of making a good game. They give you 3 autosave slots, and then save so often that you can't go back to where you screwed up (which is a thing you can do). They put in sidequests, which you'd expect to 1) be able to handle without very specific powers unless they warn you ahead of time or providing you any way at all to handle and 2) need to do to keep up in a level-based game. There is also a timer that sometimes matters and sometimes doesn't, so sidequests might be bad? There's no way of knowing what to do without having already played the game, or reading a guide (at which point, just watch a LP of the game).

Games of the time certainly did enjoy their "you must have x power to proceed".

I died to a Wanderer Ragnora deck, which is a fitting end I suppose. Widely considered the most cancerous deck in the game. But at least I got in wins with all of my favourite decks (Vespyr and Wall and Nemeton Vanar, Egg and Hatefurnace Magmar, Xor'Xuul Dying Wish Abyssian) in the hours leading up to it, and managed to hit Gold rank an hour before the end.

Then I died again - inside - when I finally closed the game, knowing that the login servers are now gone and it can never be opened again.


Duelyst.

At a friend's insistence I bought the steam version of FF15 only for the comrades multiplayer mode.  It probably should have been a warning that when we connected to eachother there was no-one else online, at all.

But after a couple missions together full of lag, freezes and desyncs and a combat system that seems to amount to hitting b until the enemy is dead as your combo animations seem to naturally evade every attack that comes your way, we came across a mission for the first thing that resembles a boss.

Carlyboss(sic?). My friend who actually played through the story said that it's the first real dangerous enemy.  Turns out it is but not for the right reason.  It spawned underground, friend is fighting it solo because it spawned right for him, so on my screen he's running around fighting nothing.  We just think it's a dysync at first so we restart.  Attempt 2, when it spawns in I see from the camera focusing on it that it's spawning underground.  Again friend can fight it but I cannot.  We restart again.  This time it spawned underground for both of us.

Death is that it took 2 hours and 15 minutes to get to this point.

Trying out Fallout 4. Decided to spit on the main quest for a while and wandered off along the northern edge off the map instead of "going home". Got into some raider-infested radar tower. It gone more or less smoothly until i got to the boss.
"You feel it!? It's called fear!", followed by machine gun fire mowing me down in a second, 10+ times.
I have spent all ammo from it on 2 mirelurks, turret and a dog. One would think that softshell mirelurks would require less than 200 machine gun rounds to kill. And that's on merely "hard", meaning it's intended NORMAL amount of hp\armor.
Also, my modded-in "catgirl" looks like one from Code Vein. I suppose there are no wearable towels in vanilla? Hopefully Fallout 4 will turn out to be better than Code Vein (but fucking a man, they removed skills!). Like enemies, that are now more talkative and sometimes attempt suppresion fire. I will loathe them by fifth encounter, but now i like them.

World of Horror

[Blastbeard]

Joined a group of randos on an egg hunt, two scouts, the host as an engineer, and me, a driller. We touch down, clear out the welcoming committee, taking some hits as we do. Once they're all dead, one of the scouts leeroys off into the depths. Unsurprisingly, he gets downed, and quits before we can go revive him. A gunner joins up, and we bunch up near one of those dirt patches coverin a tunnel leading straight down while he drops in. As we wait, we can hear a large bug somewhere below us, somewhere close. The drop icon pops up and the new guy is seconds away, so the remaining scout starts digging down. He opens a path and
BOOM
All three of us are instantly downed just as the new guy spawns. He drops, comes to revive me since I'm closest, and
BOOM
Down he goes. We're all dead, and just before the fade-to-black one of those big exploder bugs comes up from the hole the scout dug. Turns out we had been standing right on top of it, and when the scout got close enough for it to attack, we all got caught in the blast. The gunner had no way of knowing what he was walking into, and we didn't have enough time to warn him.

Deep Rock Galactic

Among other deaths, jumped off a cliff at night. Didn't die from the fall, though, it was a piranha in the ocean. The fall did nothing.

Respawned, traveled back to where I died. Thought my body was very close to land. It wasn't. Also because of the fact that it was still night, I didn't see that there were four piranhas now. Like they knew I was coming back, so they were just waiting there. Bastards must have had a good laugh.

ARK: Survival Evolved. 'Twas on sale. The good news, this death happened just after I built an extra set of gear just in case I died somewhere I couldn't recover my stuff. The only item of any real consequence lost was a fertilized dodo egg I couldn't even hatch anyway.

Does anyone know how to keep this game from launching my Oculus software on its own? I don't even have my headset plugged in.

Disco Elysium

[Akura]

Tore down my old hut and began transferring all the resources and pets to a new base. Along the way a baryonyx yeets my raft with its spin attack, crippling me and killing all but two of my dodos and my parasaur. After feasting on my birds, it came to finish me off. Fortunately, the raft still had enough forward momentum to carry the surviving animals out of the baryonyx's aggro range, sparing them.

ARK: Survival Evolved. These damn things have killed me more times than literally everything else in the game combined.

Note: The chaos only gets worse from there. It's not like I already had all important research done in the first place.

Are those steel walls? Are they still flammable?
