Compliments Are Coming

On 07/29/2015 at 08:51 PM by Super Step

I'm doing this happiness challenge thing I heard of from TED Talk, so if you see a compliment in your inbox any time soon, don't take it sarcastically. If you don't see one, don't get offended and feel free to ask me for one if you're feeling down.

In gaming news, while I have gotten 100% on all Story-related content in both Arkham Knight and City, City continues to shut down my PC and I don't feel like playing it on PS Now in bare bones non-GOTY form. So instead of going chievo hunting (I'm still trying to get the trophies on Arkham Knight, 91% complete for main game and only need one in Batgirl DLC; only need two in Never Alone, but I kinda hate that these easy games don't have Platinums), I'm gonna play through Asylum. Probably on Story+, since I believe I 100% that game fairly easily.

Oh and Cary, since I mentioned Never Alone, you're right it's not hard and very short, but I still don't like that if I get the characters too far apart while controlling one, the other can fall to their death or get crushed because I didn't swap quickly enough. But I also remembered you can skip to certain segments of the game to get the owls for insight unlocking. I only need 2 more. I might even buy the $3 Foxtale DLC.

I also played some Rocket League, but I never seem to create a party when you folks are on. Anyone want to get a time set for some Rocket League action on PSN? There's a trophy in it for both of us. (EDIT_ Just saw your PM goaztecs, sent you one back on PSN.)

In other car gaming news, I finally did OK in a Driving Club race. It was the Welcome to Driving Club race, but dammit I'm proud of myself. I'm still behind goaztecs in terms of trial time, but I passed OzrkMtBadBoy by little enough he could easily pass me by playing again. lol I'd be tempted to buy the full game in the Store if it weren't for my preference for arcadey racers. I miss Burnout.

I also played more of Ether One. I was frustrated before, because I felt there was too much shit going on for me to know what puzzle to work on, but I'm just gonna find the red ribbons first and go from there. The projectors seem like they might be extra, but I don't think so? I gotta hand it to PS+ for giving me a bunch of freebies I'm still playing. Arkham Knight remains the only game I've bought at full price.

How are all of you?

Didn't know Never Alone had DLC, but I just played the Wii U version.

Giving out compliments is always great! Never feel afraid to do so. I've always thought you were a very hard working individual. There, that's my compliment to you!

I just saw the option to play "Foxtales" on my PSN version, and it took me to the Store.

And you seem like a hard worker yourself as well as one of the nicest people I've ever talked to.

I never watched a ted talk. Heard about them. I envy you playing knight. But im gonna hook up the wii u today, yes, i brought it. And i will play city on the gamepad.

I wouldn't feel too bummed about Knight, as I can only play so much Asylum or City before my laptop shuts off. I might just end up buying a used 360.

I could go for a frapp.

Sorry man, its like we're playing tag when it comes to getting that Rocket League game going. I didn't see your message until after I logged off the console (I was on PS3 at the time). I should be home today if you're still up for it.

Get that Arkham Knight Platinum! I'll probably jump back in the game eventually just to play through the DLC and tackle some of those Riddler trophies.

I even tried to join another friend's party between my own invitations. It was a mess last night haha. If I see that you're on, I'll send you an invite. I saw you were on the PS3, but didn't know if that has Rocket League? I try to go to bed earlier these days, so I might miss you after about 9:30/10PM or so.

The thing that sucks about Arkham Knight Platinum is that some of the trophies have to be unlocked via challenge modes if you've already beaten the game, since the gun-totin' peeps are gone from the rooftops and there are no more tanks on the street. Some of these, I'll definitely be lookin' up online.

I miss Burnout too. When I get to 2004, I'm gonna replay Burnout 3 and then Burnout Revenge when I do 2005. Oh yeah!

It's been a while since I played Burnout. Is that an announcer saying? Fun fact: you can get the Wave Race announcer on Gamecube to be super flippant and condescending. It's audio they used as placeholder in the game before they got the real, more enthused announcer.

Woa! That's cool about Wave Race. I'll remember that.
