Life with Dot

gaming

Ahh, fighting games. One of my weaker genres, but a fav nontheless. In high school, I started playing Street Fighter IV. My enjoyment was never from the competition side of things, but just having fun with combos.

I've spent most of the day updating different systems of mine. One of the main things I updated was reinstalling Debian. I also added new links on the blog, downloaded screenshots from my consoles, and uninstalled some apps from my phone. The last thing I did was switched my Tails USB to a smaller storage device.

Got the plat in dark souls. The end was driving me bonkers if my last post didn't make it obvious. But I'm happy to say that I did it in 3 weeks, which might be a personal record for a FromSoft game (I'd have to look back at Sekiro). Not sure what game I will focus on next, but I've got tons of options.

FUCK PvP in games. I'm trying to get items to get the platinum trophy in Dark Souls 3 and I'm ready to break my controller. I'm just absolute garbage at it, but the alternative is farming 50 items at a 1% drop rate per run. I'm trying to alternate between them but I die like 800000 times before having one successful invasion. At least with the grind I'm not absolutely disgusted with myself and the game. God. Fuck this.

God RNG grinds in games suck. I'm at the very end of my Dark Souls 3 journey, and I'm having to farm specific NPCs over and over and over and over again. I'm going to go crazy now. I didn't think the rates would be this bad.

Lately, there haven't been too many games that I've just wanted to sit down and spend the whole day playing. Well, yesterday, I put a massive dent into Dark Souls 3.

I've been a Soulsborne fan for several years now. But I had only really played Dark Souls 1 and Bloodborne (and I suppose Sekiro, but it feels different). Well, the other week my best friend gifted me Dark Souls 3. It was on my to-buy list for a while, but was never important enough to justify spending the money.

I've always had a on-again-off-again relationship with collecting things. Growing up, I was into trading card games (Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh), and lighthouses. As I grew out of those, I didn't really do much collecting until I started college. At the time, it was mostly digital games through Steam. When that died off, it was Rubik's cubes, and eventually Homestuck merchandise.

So as mentioned a few days ago, I’ve been playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons on a regular basis. For the past month or so, my routine has been to dig up all fossils, buy the KK album from the Nook Shopping app, then check out the shop and tailor. Well, yesterday I finished the fossil exhibit at my museum.

I said I would do two, so here we are. I did not end up playing any games today like I originally planned, but I did pick a new one up that I've been putting off for a while: Borderlands 3.
