The Gaming Diary: Chapter 3

[Addicted]

More Dark Souls 3 (X1)  - I made it to level 137. I'm adding some magic to my build before moving on to the end of the game.

I finally beat Final Fantasy 8, phew! Took me 75 hours. If I were to do it again, I could do it in half the time...I probably wasted 20+ hours on the card minigame alone.

I spent nearly 6 months on this game (not actual game time, obviously). I really should play some shorter games but instead I always seem to go for the RPG's.

Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate (Vita) - Combing through Cell Blocks looking for Detective cases.

so satisfying to finish a game that long though!

myself, i started playing Child of Light on Vita. i was only planning on testing it for half an hour or so, as i do with most of my new games, but it's so good i couldn't put it down. highly recommended, it looks like a 2D platformer but when fighting enemies it plays like a turn based RPG.

Are you still on NG? I bet you'll crush it at that level. I finished NG++ at 140 without a lot of trouble.

@Duke.Togo: Yes. I keep going back to see how high I can make my stats... it's a habit I picked up with Dragon Warrior. I'm raising my intelligence/faith right now so I can try out the different spells/miracles.

I received the new Ghostbusters game from the library yesterday so I'll take a quick break. If the game is as bad as people say I'll be right back to DS3.

Spider Jack (WP) - This is quite entertaining.

Daxter (PSP) - For an early psp title, this game has aged quite well. I will have to actually play a Jak & Daxter game in the future.

@Addicted: I get you. I just started a new character to try a different build. I never used magic much in 3. I really liked the charges based system of the other 2 games. Same with Demon's Souls.

@Duke: Playing as a glass cannon was one of the my favorite things about DS2. I'm particularly interested in adding some pyromancy.  I'm still packing away the levels. I'm at 142 now.

Ghostbusters (X1) - Do you like having your cars oil changed? This game is just as monotonous and not as fun.

Dark Souls 3 (X1) - Let's make those numbers higher.

I bought AW: Phoenix Festa for the Vita and have been playing it on the PS TV. It's a great game, but it doesn't seem very long, which means I'm gonna be sad when it ends. Why are the best games always so short? :/

Daxter (PSP) - I'm coming for ya Jak!

Like I said yesterday, VERY short game. I clocked in about 3 Hours and 30 Minutes to finish it. And to add insult to injury, this was on hard mode. So sick of great games being way too short. >_<

EDIT: Fortunately, I have another Vita game coming via FedEx on the 3rd (so the tracking says), and I think, but am not entirely sure, that Dark Souls 3 DLC is launching in September.

You know, I need to watch Asterisk War. I haven't watched much of anything lately, and it was in the middle of the first season when I was watching things.
How was the game?
