Playing outbreak: class 3 just for some quick zombie clearing fun. My five policemen were on three corners of a small English town being overrun by a modest few thousand zombies, very quickly I rallied all five together to begin retaking the streets. We went through street by street, briefly holing up with a homeowner with a shotgun, circling around the town all the way up to the outer park limits and south. We tried finding any civilians after our homeowner with a shotgun was bitten through a shattered window and realized there was a civilian on the other end of town, there were in fact 2 - the last 2 civilians alive. With disciplined fire control the undead were cleared and somewhat eerily the streets we cleared merely refilled behind us, but at the very least they did so in lower densities than we left them. Eventually we found old trails of corpses we had dispatched and realized we were getting close to the civilians.
Unfortunately just as we arrived their door finally gave in and the undead got them.
This culminated in some horrible release of pressure, with all of my policemen caught in the open in the eye of the storm.

It was the end of the journey for them.
That game looks cooler than it actually is.
Very much so, but it doesn't overstay its welcome ^_^

A bandit chieftain OHKO me with an axe.

The "slow motion while you block a power attack" perk is stupid. Why did I take it? It is literally the dumbest and least helpful thing ever.

Because sometimes, very occasionally, it bugs out and you get to play in Neo-mode for a minute or so.

No thanks, I've had my fill of Skyrim bugs with mashing down on the Z-key, but nothing happens because the game thinks I'm already shouting.

The King of Skulls cuts your max HP by 10 every time you get cursed. I foolishly decided to take some cursed treasure, which dealt me FIVE curse cards. Next combat I had 35 max HP and a host of debuffs, and was dealt the Three of Mages and the Lich. GG

A dragon was busy harassing some wildlife on the other side of a hill, so I ran over to get some free potshots.

When I got to the top of the hill, I was standing in a giant camp. The giant has just finished two-shotting the dragon, then launched me into the atmosphere with one hit.

Skyrim. At least I didn't have to fight the dragon myself, once I reloaded.

Bravely Second.

A random encounter gone really bad. I don't know what the hell happened, but the enemies got two attacks instead of just one (happens sometimes), attacked me, then launched Morfeo, slept my whole time on each turn and killed me in a turn.

Now I regret not playing with auto-save activated :(

Despite my best efforts, dirty, cheese-equal-distributing, commie (technically syndie) surrender monkies from the west, and filthy, filthy potato stealing fascists from the east absolutely ruined my glorious German reich.

Kaiserreich is a hell of an experience.

I got attacked while wandering the wilderness. My opponents were a minotaur and a unicorn. I just shot the minotaur with arrows a couple times and it died, but the unicorn would not have any of that shit. Your attack has no effect. I tried slashing it with my sword, but that also had no effect. I tried using magic on it, but it didn't seem to do anything since I'm an assassin and don't use magic. I tried silver arrows. Your attack has no effect. I tried my poison, Uncle Iron's Bad4U. The unicorn resisted poison. I tried running away. It was too fast. Just as I was about to load my game, an imperial woodsman appeared. He was using a silver bow which seemed to be able to harm the demonic thing. I tried running in circles to allow the guy to keep shooting it, but it was taking way too long so I let the unicorn kill him. For some reason his bow went flying when he died and it took like 10 minutes for me to find where it was in the grass. I picked it up, equipped it and shot the beast. It didn't do much damage, but it was something. I kept shooting it over and over and over and over and over.

And then I ran out of arrows.

I think I took on a contract that will be literally impossible to complete.

I have to take a crew report 18900m above Steltina's Luck, a fair distance away from the Space Center. I've unlocked the first two things in the tech tree, which did not involve any new parachutes, RCS or landing gear. The parachute that I have keeps burning up or being ripped off by the force of our descent.

So I spent a lot of time last night taking successful crew reports, then exploding horribly because I'm going too fast to use the parachute.

Could you try.. Taking the report, then slowing your descent to a purely vertical one, then pointing down and firing the engine so the parachute doesn't rip off?

I haven't made it there with enough fuel to slow myself down that much. I'll try using two of the medium-sized solid fuel rockets instead of a medium and a small one, next time.

I didn't die, but my best specialist caught an unlucky Muton plasma bolt with her teeth, with unfortunate consequences for her dental hygiene as well as the rest of her skull.  We grabbed her body and booked it out of dodge before the X4 blew the facility and all ADVENT forces in the vicinity into fine ash.

I failed to realize that the crazy-powerful Berserker could place himself behind the Archer I was luring out in order to attack from outside his normal range.

RIP in pieces, booty mage girl. You will be missed.
