Finished Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc Anniversary Edition!
Chapter 4 spoilers
This was probably the saddest death in the game. Not that other deaths weren’t sad, but giving up her life so that things don’t escalate…
This was also probably the most complex case yet. It took me a while to figure out who actually killed her.
Not going to do a chapter by chapter spoiler, so it doesn’t spoil how many chapters there are. My end of game thoughts:
End game spoilers
Game left me full of despair. I decided to trust Kyoko and got the True Ending, the remaining students were able to leave the school, but the thought of them being friends with each other, then losing their memory and killing each other for fake “motives” just makes me sad. Maybe some of them deserves it, they decided to cross the line for their own goals, but some were pure victims.
Another despair inducing fact is that this game has sequels, so they aren’t going to face happy life even after leaving the school. Well, even without sequels, the way the world is suposed to be, they would face lots of challenges and issues, but I want those issues to be real issues, not some fake / convuluted game.
All this testifies to why this game is so popular. It made me feel some stuff. So great work there.
We also learned why De_Narm have heard about the popularity of Junko when she “died” in first chapter.
Won’t be playing the sequel right away, but I am currently planning to get the Anniversary edition, instead of waiting for the new 2x2 game. According to Wikipedia as per game director, that is not a remake but a retelling of the game, plus a new story. So, want to try how the original was. May go for the 2x2 after playing both Danganronpa 2 and 3.
Reached Chapter 4 of Yoshi and the Mysterious Book!
One interesting thing I noticed is that if you are in page of one creature but make some new discovery about another creature that is present there (like Crazee Dayzee) then the page for that creature is updated. You don’t have to go back and do the same stuff on that creature’s page.
I noticed this when trying to revive a Crazee Dayzee, didn’t know how to do that, did that in another level, and it updated the page for Crazee Dayzee.
The game also tries to send you back to do some of the stuff that you missed, but doesn’t force it too much. I liked the approach, makes the flow natural.
Played more of Fallout 4.
I need to do something about the ammo. I haven’t actually run out yet, but I have close a few times. Switching between 10mm and Pipe gun has been helping me to not run out, but it’s at a place where I have to start worrying about it.
Just got the damage increase perk for gun, so hopefully would have to spend less ammo, but I am guessing enemy level will also increase so there won’t be much of a difference in expenditure.
Played couple of levels of Sackboy: A Big Adventure and a few matches of Arc Raiders, not much to mention here.
Started Onimusha: Warlords in place of Danganronpa.
I have noticed that my patience for older games has reduced a lot lately, so I was kind of afraid if I’ll not enjoy the game, but I was surprised to find out that it plays pretty well. Of course there are some dated elements like fixed camera, only being able to save at selected spots, lack of details on how to do certain things, but the game is still fun to play. The movement and combat is good. The voice acting feel a bit over the top but it’s not bad, the visuals are old-ish but clear.
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
Mostly played Yoshi Mysteriously Harasses the Wildlife. I was wondering if there were going to be ‘boss’ stage equivalents and World 2 tells me yes! It was fun until I tried to complete it. Lining up those shots got really annoying with how slow he is. I’m two stages into World 3 now and we’re reaching a point where I have a harder time figuring everything out.
Picked Visions of Mana back up. Maybe the game has more content left than I expected, we finally got to meet who I assume is the true villain! The guy we had before was not being very good at his role, what with him being absolutely right about everything he says and barely showing up.
The game is also being very weird about its side quests. You beat a chapter and a few places you have no reason to go back to have a new quest that ask you to go to a place you have already explored to kill a few enemies that are the same level as they were when you first went there. Interesting quests are few and far between.
In Fallout 3, I did the iconic Tranquility Lane quest, my favorite part of the game that I know from my first half-playthrough. Which brings me to a point in the story where it felt appropriate to take a vacation to the Point Lookout DLC, which I know absolutely nothing about! The lever-action rifle is a nice upgrade, using the very common 10mm ammo but being much stronger than the default pistol. I’ve been sitting on 1,500 of those bullets. Plus 1,000 Railway Spikes, 1,100 Shotgun Shells… This would be a very different game if ammo had weight!
I am glad about this, this makes me feel less stupid 😀
Agree about the Fallout ammo. Except I have nowhere close that, at least for the weapons I use. Probably need to get the Scrounger perk that gives you more.
