Hearthstone babble and other random gamesFollow

Playing MOAR Hearthstone. Made a Hunter facerush deck to get my daily quests in. Man, it's so cheap and easy to play. There are about zero decisions you ever have to make. I hate coming up against them, too. There's almost no interaction between you and the other player.

That's true of just about any CCG, is it not?

I think HS would be more enjoyable if it took overall deck quality into consideration when matching with opponents.

Arena can be really fun, though.

I mean, I fully agree that intelligence/skill is a big factor... but how big your wallet is pretty directly addresses the luck issue. Luck matters a lot more when you can't buy 50 boosters.

It's pretty much guaranteed in any collectible card game that money is going to be a limiting factor. Although MtG is holding draft grand prix where a little luck and a lot of skill are all it takes.

My weekend game was again....Don't Starve.

It's a sickness really.

My guy(gal) dies stupidly and tragically after many cold nights eating raw rabbit hinds and running from rabid hounds. When the moment of death finally comes I say silently to myself "yay, I'm free of this game now. I can play something normal and not twisted".

The next time I sit down for some gaming, my mouse hovers around over all the cool icons for various games but then like the ouija planchette, of it's own free will, it slides to the Don't Starve icon and double clicks.

I'm glad that you like this game as much as I do. Haven't played it in awhile, but when I first got it - it pretty much stole all my game time (even though I got it pre actual release it was still horribly addictive)

Unlike Joph, being terrible at it to start didn't deter me.

Completed the RoS campaign. The writing is definitely better than vanilla D3, and I liked the setup for future games/expansions, though a not-insignificant part of me is certain they'll **** it up.

I thought that they wrapped up the follower storylines way too quickly, considering how long they were drawn out in the original game. They were probably the best-written characters of vanilla D3, and to have pretty much the only redeeming stories from the initial game wrapped up so quickly was a bit disappointing. Similarly, while the act felt a bit on the long side, I thought they had enough story material to stretch it to two acts. I think it would have better established the main villain, and they could have delayed a particular fight a bit more, especially considering the implications. Of course, only a fool would play Diablo for the story, I guess.

OK.

If you played on the PC, you should revisit the core game and see how you like it now. They just put through a major content patch that changes a lot.

Welp...



I really wish you had the option to revive your HC character as a SC character.

Picked up the HD remake of FFX/X-2 and it's gorgeous. Completely redone menus, re-rendered textures in many places, and it even seems like they re-rendered the movies at 720p. I'm about to hit the boat to Luca.

I went to pick up my Al Bhed dictionary, and discovered that since all my saved games were on the PS2 collecting dust in the attic, I had none stored. DOH! Time to learn ruf du cbayg drec tisp myhkiyka ymm ujan ykyeh.

I'm really hoping they give XII the same treatment someday.
