Fired up Wartales after clearing it shortly after it released, they didn't even had helmet back, bought the Invasion DLC but I haven't reached that content yet, lot of fun, the progression seems a lot quicker than way back then, too, as I've basically finished four regions out of the six ones pre-DLC, and my band is almost the same level as I was in the previous run where I had finished most of the game.

I've been playing Terra Invicta again because i suppose i hate myself. Gonna try to unite humanity under Humanity First's faction and then purge the aliens! The interesting thing is even though Humanity First is in many ways a baddie faction i find them more interesting than the Resistance's leader. Honestly a couple of the factions could've been rolled into one.

Anyway so far i've gotten a bunch of colony habitats on mars and some asteroids. I also have quite a few research campuses/universities around Earth. The latest update makes it so the only way you can have a research building is over a planet with 10,000 population or within the earth and moon's orbits which honestly neuters research a ton. My research rate is 2nd best of the human factions now though.

For whatever absurd reason the Protectorate are doing really well and actually have a significant amount of ships for semi early game. I should probably go kill off their councilors now that they're doing so well again (but not before getting a bunch of ships myself). I did it before but then they managed to become like the top human faction in the game annoyingly.

There isn't much left to talk about besides i have like half of the usa, iran, australia and most of south east asia including indonesia. I'm planning to invade japan since they got all aggressive with me and they have no friends now so why not.

I completed the original Dawn of War campaign today and began playing Winter Assault. Man, oh man, it's just such a great game, been a while since I've been so addicted to a game. No wonder so many people got into 40k because of it. Also, the voice acting is too perfect.

loving it, and enjoying it.

Yeah i got into 40k because of it as well. I loved the crap out of that game esp. in winter assault. Soulstorm was kinda bad though but dark eldar and sisters of battle needed their time in the sun (something they rarely got at the time).

I've been playing terra invicta as humanity first and was doing well enough but now i'm struggling to even match the aliens. At least the aliens are only really retaliating against me somewhat and haven't just gone all out to destroy me. Even so they were stomping me into the ground in some instances and now i'm just trying to protect Mars and having very limited success. I'm currently having a noble metals shortage however which has not been getting alleviated. Suppose colony mining complexes will somewhat solve the issue but we'll see. It'll definitely take time to build them all.

On Earth however i've finally been getting the upper hand in military engagements but the next alien landing party for armies will be coming eventually and that'll definitely suck. I'll likely have to use nukes to fight them off.

I've done the first two bosses in Silksong.
The platforming elements are easy so far.
The bosses are harder than anything from FromSoftware (add in Nioh 2, Wo Long, Lies of P, etc), if only because of how unforgiving they are in terms of damage. It's really stupid. Bell Beast's moveset is simple, but there's a good chance any mistake means death at 4 masks or less.
