I took JhoJho on a bizarre adventure to show him the true meaning of pain and suffering.

Got all six votes in a game of Lucioball where I was total MVP. 2 goals, 2 saves, 4 interceptions, all gold.

We've made it to Sevastopol, decisive victories all the way and so far I don't think I've lost too many of my experienced units maybe.

Got the Master Protector achievement... by hypnotizing another Big Daddy and sitting in a corner.

EDIT: Got past that crash bug. Thankfully it was just that level, but I correctly deduced it was a graphics issue and had to reduce the graphics detail to their lowest setting. The next level I could turn everything back to high. That's an own on it's own, but then I received an ability described as "Bring Your Daughter to Work Day". {My "daughter" just clad herself in Big Sister armor and kicked the shit out of two Brute Splicers - and that's the least of her badassery.}

Figured I'd give the target shield a go for some parrying. Failed. Remembered there's no real reason not to parry with a medium shield.

This game is a lot easier when you can parry the most common enemies perfectly on their first hit.

Now I've just got to figure out O&S...

I've been playing Alien Swarm on the maximum possible difficulty settings with some dudes from Steam, but I ended up playing a couple of games with low-level players on minimum difficulty today. I basically felt like I was the terminator, and could effectively clear levels singlehandedly.

The parry frames are unanimously shorter with medium shields, but really if you're not going a PARRY PARRY PARRY build they're better, I suppose.

I'unno, I can't land a parry with the target. At all. With the Grass Crest, 9/10 times. I guess I'm just really used to the medium shield timing.

Which is weird, because the target shield should have almost the exact same timing. Just with a longer window for the parry to connect. Maybe the different animation is just throwing you off or something? I don't know. The Grass Crest Shield is awesome though, so I can't blame you for wanting to use it all the time. Also sunbro has a summon sign on the staircase with the silver knight archer, if you need help with Biggie and Smalls. He never lasts the entire fight, but the extra body makes the first phase of the battle way faster/easier so you can save your flasks for the second part.



In more Dark Souls related ownage, I defeated a boss on my first attempt without them landing a solid hit on me. Admittedly my shield did get bashed around, but I've never had a fight before where I didn't need to heal. So it seems like an own to me. Even if I felt vaguely dirty afterwards.

To be honest, DS2 feels like another company (or at least team) made the game and then got the Dark Souls IP at the last moment. I mean, you don't even use 'Dark Souls' to restore your humanity, goddamn it.
There never was a "dark soul" item. It was humanity in the first game, and human effigies in the second. Also it was a mostly different team.

Yes. Humanity. The 'Dark Souls' of humans. Hence why they're black with a white outline, in contrast to the white/yellowish souls of everything else. I just didn't want to repeat the word humanity in the sentence twice, and I thought that using 'dark souls' helped drive my point across at how disconnected the second game is from the first. But you're right. You used Humanity to restore your Humanity in the first game. And Human Effigies in the second for no good reason.

With the glow and outline of the effigies, it kind of looks like they're just Humanity.. inside a little effigy? However that would work.

Noticed under Luka's allowance accounts that she spent 1000MP on "Self-Improvement: Took a baking lesson. Now I know some elementary dessert-making magic!"

After I finishing D'aaawww-ing, I ended up thoroughly trouncing her at Reversi. Normally she humiliates me.
