@ralphdibny the 'grind' wasn't that bad in all honesty, we just set it up on hdmi1 and let it run while I switched over to hdmi2 and farmed some upgrade mats on Sekiro... and no he didn't have it at the time either so we popped it roughly the same time.
Well if for whatever reason you ever do fancy chasing the plat on it, give me a shout and I'll help you get the Vic Voss trophy.
@colonelkilgore I feel like I couldn't ask you to do that for me! But I'll try booting it up in the next week or so and have a look at what trophies I need and let you know, cheers
@colonelkilgore What's your PSN? I'll add you at least. If you don't want it to be public, I think you can tag me in a post that says your PSN, then delete it and I should still get the notification e mail with the post in it
Beat Ghost of Tsushima last night. What a game. Sometimes you just want something that hits all the right notes, and Ghost certainly did. Everything about this game has something I enjoy, and I see it as one of the best games PlayStation has.

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy And that’s me finished Code Vein too! Spent a bit of time on finishing off The Depths including a brilliant twist on Cannoneer and Blade Bearer but didn’t have too many difficulties with the normal final boss. The super secret final boss however... is terrible. Utterly rubbish. The camera has been pretty good for the most part in this game until this fight where it’s completely all over the place. It feels like they just took Moon Presence from Bloodborne and applied it to the Code Vein template. It’s not a good boss at all and a real shame to finish on. The hitboxes are silly and it only took normal damage on an always moving tiny target. Just an annoying fight. I did enjoy the game though, it’s not up there with Nioh or most of the Souls games but I prefer it to Dark Souls 2!
@nessisonett@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Congrats on the Code Vein completion. Not sure when I might play it, but I would like to keep it in mind for my next Soulsborne candidate. The latter part of the game does concern me if the difficulty ramps up like that. I’m not a Souls Pro like you all.

@Th3solution To be blunt - the game’s not that difficult. Some annoying bosses but none of them honestly took me more than 5 goes. The fact the game gives you a partner throughout takes the edge off in a good way, I’m not one for needless challenge! It’s one of those games with 2 or 3 genuinely hard bosses that will probably stand out as your favourite fights due to the challenge or your least favourite if you get stuck a while. The areas are never that difficult but you can get lost pretty easily.
@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy You haven’t been playing this blindfolded with a dance mat? I’m so disappointed. 😜
Yeah, I remember you had tried playing a self-imposed level restriction to ramp up the difficulty, which is the opposite way from my “grind and level up for ages before moving on” strategy that I take when I’ve played Soulslike games before. So I guess it would still be possible in this game for a guy like me to be able to level grind to make things easier? And did you ever have to resort to YouTube or online strategy guides to make it through the tougher parts?

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Sounds good. Thanks!
I only survived some Bloodborne bosses by being able to watch a YouTube video of how someone else defeated them. I always gave myself a chance to do it on my own, mind, but there were several bosses that I watched a video; Same thing with one of the bosses in Jedi Fallen Order. On the contrary, I never once asked for a companion assist on any of the BB bosses, which I know a lot of people say that helps a lot to get past some of them. But it’s amazing how helpful it can be just to watch someone else best a boss. It’s proof that it can be done, which in some cases I felt like the game was asking the impossible 😅
@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Yeah... the end song was rather out of place. They’d cultivated a mostly dark atmosphere throughout the whole game and then gave us a Disney song!
Finished Castlevania Harmony of Dissonance there, all three endings, 200% map completion and all collectibles! All in 6 and a half hours which I’m pretty proud of. I’m missing a few achievements on RetroAchievements but it’s ones for Boss Rush and grinding to Level 50 which I just don’t want to do 😂
Also, that soundtrack is absolutely dreadful. It’s painful to listen to. Which is a shame given Circle of the Moon, the earlier game, had a great soundtrack. Just yucky sounding.
Kinda-sorta beat Super Mario Galaxy. I collected all 120 stars and beat Bowser again and saw the bonus after-credits scene that plays if you complete everything in the game.
The thing is... fully completing the game as Mario unlocks Luigi as a playable character, and to properly 100% it, you have to collect all 120 stars as him as well, which unlocks the final level in the game. And I've pledged to fully complete the games in the 3D All-Stars collection, so...
I kinda beat it, but I still have a ton of content left to engage with before I can set it aside.
