Last Video Game(s) You Played

[WeaponTheory]

Left 4 Dead

Played a random game.
Once again, got put in a game where this beta white knight is trying so hard to protect some girl, y'know, giving her health and shielding her from enemies. I knew immediately what was going on when I saw that they didn't let out the two survivors (including me) out of the closet to prep for the finale rescue event.
So I stayed around giving it the benefit of a doubt, but it didn't matter because once they signal the rescue vehicle, we're getting out automatically.
So they did so and ran away. I'm free. Mind you, I start with half of health. And due to limited of time to prep, I couldn't grab a pipebomb (which distracts zombies and make them run to it), and they jacked all the fucking health.

I ran to my safe spot on the level, beasting it with an A.I. bot and protecting him so that he protects me just so I can rub it in their face that I still held my own.
Then on the mic, I hear him addressing me. Telling me to leave or he will kill me. 



This faggot's accent is all out of whack because he's from France. 
So anything that comes out of his mouth is gonna sound like a retard who learned English from Competitive Shooter lobbies.
I'm pissed off because I've witness this bullshit a few weeks ago, the only difference is that they didn't have a mic for me to cuss their ass out. Now I'm livid because of this deja vu shit and this is the first thing I deal with when I cut on the game!? But because above all, in a fucking co-op game, there's no rhyme or reason to act the way he is. 
Kill me, FOR WHAT!? To live out your last humans on Earth fantasy?
So I told him that if he didn't want people joining the game he should've put it on private and that he's stupid for not knowing about that. I hoped his fucking princess could hear me, because I told him that doing this isn't gonna make her suck your dick.
After that he just kept saying something about "dick", I swear to God, it sounded like he was trying to convinve me how great of a cocksucker his girlfriend is. The female gamer is from the UK, so I know he wasn't talking about her. 

Again, still beasting it in my area with the A.I. bot, which I'm surprised is living as long as it did at the time.
Now comes the part where I know I was gonna die anyway. Making my way towards the rescue vehicle where the jackass awaits, I had lesser health thanks to him shooting me on my way there, which causes the player to walk slow. I didn't have a pipe bomb to get the zombies off of me and no health pack. And despite all of that, I ALMOST made it on the vehicle because he got distracted for a few seconds with the ambushing zombies.
I got knocked down right in front of the rescue vehicle. And with my last attempt of a "fuck you", they had gasoline tanks, I shot them to do some fire damage to them and I died.

Unfortunately nothing I say to him would matter because lord knows he can't understand me just as I couldn't him.

Shit like this doesn't make me want to play the game. No matter what I do, the game is filled with idiots and griefers.


Braid

Bought it after that bullshit I experienced for $4.99
It's alright, it makes me feel stupid until I can figure out what to do or I give up and skip it. I hate and like games like this.

BRAID

I don't game much as I used to.
So I got this game because I heard nothing but praises and shit, and it was cheap. Buyer impulse once again kicked in...I've been bored lately anyways.
So I decided to play something besides Left 4 Dead for once.
A puzzle game. Those are fun, right? And XboxAchievements says the difficulty is a 4/10. Cool, I get to solve puzzles and relax.
Fuck me, no. I still ended up raging at a game.
I admit, I'm just not smart for this game. Fuck 4/10 difficulty, this is a good 7 at least.

By the time I got to World 3 out of 6, I resorted to a Guide, and even that didn't help much, because it was nothing but timing.
There's no hand holding on how to use your abilities on whatever map. For the life of me I couldn't wrap my head around the fucking game's ability mechanics. Me bypassing and getting puzzles was just dumb luck for me. 
Especially World 4. https://youtu.be/dELboJ9Miio?t=602
On that map, you move forward, time resumes normally. You turn around to go back, time reverses. Fuck this shit.
In the video, the player gets the puzzle piece, he jumps on the discount Goomba to get to high platform, BUT at the same time, he goes back to reverse time to prevent the fake Goomba's death and so that it naturally resumes on the platform to grab the key for him. It doesn't sound like shit on paper, but to mimic that was such a pain.
Each level after that just made me feel even more stupid than before because never in my life would I have figured how to get most of these puzzle pieces.

The story, spoilers ahead. I just ended up not giving a shit. From an average person's point of view, you read books before the start of each map that tell you some dick name Tim wants to find the Princess. And each map just basically describing his lust for her or some shit and how he's about to fuck off and go find her. And even when you get to the end, which is ass backwards the beginning of the map, either that or I did the game out of order because you had to climb a ladder to get to World 1, while the game starts you off at World 2-6, if that makes any sense. At World 1, you see how she got captured. Which means, you never rescued the bitch. I admit, World 1 was interesting, because you're running to save her, she's opening paths for you as you tried to clear them and help her by opening paths for her. Then when you get to the end, you get shut out with your only option to rewind time, so that it looks like she's running away from you and jumping to the arms of the "bad guy" turned hero. The End.
Another positive thing I can say about this game is that I do appreciate what the game is trying to do, but Jesus Christ, it's a fucking video game, can a man relax? They made this too difficult as if a hooker is right at your door and she's your reward when you beat the game.

Shitty, the last achievement I need is beating the Speed Run of the game in 45 minutes, fuck that and fuck everything about this game. Guess I won't 100% this either.

TL;DR
I wasted $5 to feel like a fucking idiot for a few hours.

Hmm...and I've been spoiled. Considering the major revelation is the fact that the reason the princess appears to run from you...is because she IS. I have not played the game, nor will I because the developer (or "they"...it was made by one guy), Jonathan Blow, is a pretentious douchebag.

Pokemon GO

This new game out on mobile. Maybe you've heard of it. You walk around catching Pokemon and visit Gyms and Poke Stops. Pretty fun. Have found many others playing the game just like me. The mall had like 5 Poke Stops and a ton of people walking around checking for Pokemon.

Rise of the Tomb Raider

I'm hooked son. 

Fire Emblem (7)

I love the OG Fire Emblem on GBA. 

Mirror's Edge: Catalyst 

Pretty much is a reboot, they changed the story and now it's open world. I like. Combat is smooth and fast. I know Axess, don't fall but it happens.

Monsters & Monocles 

It look like Enter the Gungeon, but it has clunky controls to me anyways. Didn't like it will refund.

NES Remix

It's alright.

It's a damn good game. I would suggest the Baba Yaga DLC for some pretty trippy visuals and fun times. I'm thinking of getting the latest DLC which has you exploring the mansion...and there's zombies? I don't know, but it looks cool.

AM2R
Been really enjoying it, the guy really got the Metroid feel down with this fan game. It really feels like it could've been a GBA game, though that's not to say it limits itself with such a concept.

Tales of Hearts R
I like what this game's battle system has to offer with some form of counter attack and Chase Link. The localization choices, I can tolerate them, though I can't say that I like them. Even with my limited knowledge of the Japanese language, I can tell that the characters are saying things that the subtitles don't match up with. Still, the gameplay is solid.

Super Mario Maker

Played some levels for the contest of course. Also got addicted to making levels. O_O

Splatoon

It's a neat little game. pretty quick 3 min matches and rank up. I would just roll with the roller or paintbrush.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Got me a GC controller, feels better than the Wii tablet.

Rise of the Tomb Raider

I did finish it last weekend, now it's a matter of finished the rest of the tombs and collecting stuff.

Mirror's Edge: Catalyst 

Love the upgrade in combat, and it's much faster. Still need to finish it. Oh and collect everything too . . . 

DOOM

Just like those games listed above got them at a good price. under $30. Love the upgrades, the music it's delicious.

Mother Russia Bleeds

My brother got me a copy, as well he thought there was online co-op but nope just like Enter the Gungeon no online co-op. There was local co-op so we played it on my rig, finished the game in like 4 hours. The music is also delicious, there is no blocking only dodging. We got one of the endings.

Overall pretty good Labor Day weekend, I need to get Bayonetta 2, because they will never port it.

Weapon will you join us on Overwatch this coming weekend? It's free weekend on Consoles. https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/blog/20243911

Attack on Titan


I'm enjoying this game a lot more than I expected I would. Covers the anime pretty well and killing Titans is fun. Every now and then the controls get all whack but eventually I get the hang of it again. The music is awesome and builds hype for what's going on.

Zelda: Twilight Princess HD
Well, more specifically, been attempting the Cave of Shadows that is only accessible from the Wolf Link amiibo. For those unaware, it's just a Cave of Ordeals for only the wolf form, and you gotta go through about 40 floors for (SPOILER: a fucking wallet upgrade). If you do this after you've completed most of the main story already, you still have to go through the dungeon 2 times before having access to the entirety of it (floors 1-5 and 1-20 before you can do 1-40).

I've been at this freaking dungeon at least 3 times a day for the last TWO WEEKS, using only the Wolf Link amiibo as my only means of recovery (whatever your best run of the dungeon is, that's how many hearts you will recover if you scan it in, but it's only once per attempt). Then it just hit me last night that nothing is stopping me from using the Zelda amiibo I have (Zelda and Shiek amiibos act as a full health recovery, but only ONCE PER DAY). So I tried it earlier today with both the Wolf Link and Zelda amiibo recoveries, and I managed to reach the very last floor of enemies before failing. With just the Wolf Link amiibo, best I've gotten is about floor 30, and I was damn near ragequitting with only that.

Gonna try that shit again tomorrow, because I want to have this Let's Play finished once and for all


EDIT: FINALLY BEAT THIS DUNGEON! (Just feels filthy to have needed the help of another amiibo apart from the Wolf Link one. Sure is pay2win)
