Been playing some more This War Of Mine lately. I wish they would update it to randomize the starting options a bit, though. I would like to try some of the different groups of survivors, but I really don't like starting a game during winter.

"You listen to me. While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I am a naysayer and hatchetman in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method... is love. I love you Sheriff Truman." - Twin Peaks
Bought Brave New World for Civ 5. Currently trying to re-live my civ 4 days by manipulating all the world's leaders into 2 or 3 groups, and watching them fight it out while I sit back and watch.
It's even easier now that the economic system is somewhat broken now.

I decided not to. I'm trying my best not to spend any more money on the game... its not like I spent much (maybe $5?)... but usually for me that can be the start of a bad cycle...

Then it sounds like Saints Row 3 would be your cup of tea It's pretty much the same graphics as 4, but more grounded like 2 (still ridiculous storyline and all... wouldn't be Saints Row without it)

The pre-order is the first money I've spent on HS and I'm happy otherwise to grind out arena runs for more packs but I feel not too bad about spending some money on an otherwise free game

Played SR3 and I felt the same way as I did about 4. Always crazy all the time instead of paced.
I got Fallout: Shelter on my phone, and that's been pretty fun so far. It has some nice features and it's been awhile since I could find a nice city/tower building game for resources like this one, and it's Fallout so it's even better.

Just downloaded a couple new questline mods for NV. Having fun bounty hunting. Still haven't gotten around to exploring most of the Add-on dungeons I got from another mod.
Also, anyone know if when you install a weapons mod after starting a character if the weapons will properly work? On one character you can buy them at the Gun Runners and find htem on NPCs while on my 1st character they still seem missing, It's that huge pack of weapons made by a big mod group.

It's generally seen as best practice to make a new character after installing any mods, because most of the time the mods you installed after chargen will not function properly for that character and can lead to game instability.
So I'd say no, they won't work properly if they're installed for use on an existing character.
Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Was playing skyrim until the Kill the dragon mission after you vist the geezers on the mountain and after 20 tries killing the dragon i am done. Now playing bloodborne at least here it feels that it is my fault when i get killed by a boss
Taking a break from bloodborne, got stuck on shadow of yharnam, and I have been playing to many action games lately, where every tiny movement means mistake.
So now im playing ff14. Yup, I trialed it, my friend got me on the largest guild on the server 500+ people, and now im having a blast.

I thought the "kill the dragon" mission was before visiting the Greybeards?

Nah it worked. I just needed to wait for the shops to re-stock. Thanks though!

The first dragon you kill is outside the village, at the watch tower with several guards present and you can hide in the castle, the second one is with Delphine, to kill a dragon as it is getting revived by another dragon, that is the one i have trouble with and i do not know if i have a save where i can roam first to get a flame resistant armor.
Played through Alien: Isolation again, managing to get all Nostromo logs, ID tags and all messages this time around, including elusive #146. I also did some digging and found the security code for his locker on his Twitter account of all places.

That's one of the reasons I generally go through ALL of the guilds before advancing that questline. I pay special attention to the thieves guild, and mage guild questlines. Make sure you have properly finished both - got the Archmages gear, and the guildmaster gear from the thieves guild [you will need to do a load of radiant quests for that one and brought the 5 cities back into the fold. There will be 5 new merchants in the ratway when you have done]. this should see you have enough to cast resistances on yourself to mitigate the damage and a high enough sneak to hit it with a bow and do some serious damage on a sneak attack.
Of course, you could also get your enchanting to 100% and do double enchants on all your gear. Flame/frost resistance for preference, then anything that increases your prefferred damage or if using spells reduces their cost. Correctly spec'd armour and the correct skills can mean you cast spells for free.
Because I normally go sneak/archer with enchants and do side quests first, by the time I pick up the main questline to that point, it's a cakewalk.
This is obviously the problem with these open-world games. The developers stand no chance of balancing the game. It could be improved by blocking certain quests until a certain point in the mnain quest is released.

As long as the person knows what they're doing (ie it's not a face hunter) yeah you're in pretty good shape but Lock & Load can make or break their game, mages also have to be the aggro counterpart which is also unusual for that class so it may catch off more players
