*snicker*

After about 3 hours of BF4 multiplayer I've come to the decision that those games aren't for me. They're fun, but they're not really my thing. I think that with PUG style matches, winning isn't really about skill. When you're team is loosing then it's just going to stay that way.

I'll still play every so often, it's just not my bread and butter. I don't get why people play the same FPS/Sports/Racing games overandoverandover. I'm guilty of replaying my favourite games more than I should, but it isn't so I show off my e-peen.

So good
I might have to try that tonight. I made a new strength-heavy dude so I can finally go ahead and finish the game without worrying about staying around a certain level. It's SO NICE to be able to take hits instead of dying from mistiming a dodge.

BF1942's always gonna be my favorite in the series (and probably my favorite game ever) because at that time there were no leaderboards, no unlocks, no profiles and comparisons, no points beyond what you earned in a match. And at that time, random players would actually talk back and forth during battles so the servers seemed a lot livelier. They'd heal and repair each other not because doing so yielded progression towards an unlock, but because without your teammates you were gonna get wrecked trying to defend/attack that point. That's all there was to it.
So good.
In modern FPS games I just set my gear up with a gimmick, like how in BF3 I eventually resorted to only killing people with smoke grenades, or only attacking using C4 jeeps. It's how I wring replayability out of them, but it still only lasts for so long. I dislike almost everyone else in servers these days.
However, I still enjoy MMOs because I like seeing people's conversations in text form; there's something about voice chat that kills the immersion.

I love MMOs though mostly because I'd take Co-op over Competive play styles anyway

Really fucking enjoying Metro: Last Light

Also picked up Guacamelee a few days ago.

Yeah, that too.
I don't hate people in games that rely heavily on co-op. It's too bad that there aren't too many "true" co-op games, at least not on PC.

Picked up Rocksmith 2014 and it is cool. More of a learning aid than a game, but still pretty fun.
On a related note, I just found out that I like a Deftones song a lot.

Somewhere, someone in Dark Souls died. This indirectly killed me. When you die with a ton of humanity or souls and lose it, sometimes this special enemy called a vagrant spawns in another player's world for them to kill and get a little prize.
For the second time, I was running across the bridge in Anor Londo that those fucking assholes at From Software decided to place two silver knight archers on opposite sides of.
Near the top, a vagrant walks in front of me, blocking my path.
Can't go around it.
Can't go back now or their giant arrows will knock me off the bridge, even if I block.
Only option is to hit it and dodge immediately.
I land one hit, dodge the incoming arrow, go for the kill, my swing makes me slide over to the side of the bridge, the vagrant pushes me off and I die, in turn losing all my souls/humanity and possibly spawning a vagrant at the same spot in another player's world.

WELP THAT'S ENOUGH OF THAT GAME FOR TONIGHT

I kinda wanna try Rocksmith. Any problems with lag or note detection?
I read somewhere that it has trouble when you decide to slide instead of bend...or something like that.

Dark Souls'd

Vagrant....is that one of those crab dude things? I've yet to see one of those in my games.

Yep. I see one every two or three days. I think if you're playing on PS3/360 you've got a better chance because of the higher population and reduced port nonsense required to get online running well.

Metro is awesome, I've had more fun playing stealthily in M:LL than I did in a lot of other action games. I also picked up the book shortly after playing it.

Yeah the stealth in this game just feels natural, no special powers or tools, just caution and common sense. I usually end up blowing my cover though. I'll take a few guys out silently and then when I can manage the rest I just start shooting.

Definitely creepier than last one too, I really love the vibe of it.

I haven't had any problems with lag or anything on pc, though I have heard of some on consoles.
Slides and bends are denoted differently, so they aren't interchangeable. I haven't hit any problems with it recognizing techniques.
