[Avenged Probably]

He is weird. I never had him in my party a single time I don't think.

[Benji]

I didn't go with him on first playthrough because I much prefer archer rogues, melee rogues are like glass cannons, and besides Varric is always choice #1. I initially couldn't stand Sera, but she grew on me.

Dragon Age II
100% Progress: 66 of 66

Thought I had fucked up the master craftsman trophy because I didn't bother getting Isabella's friendship up for potions, but then realised I could do it with poisons.

Onwards to Inquisition!

[Benji]

I died during the intro on Nightmare. This is gonna be good  Going to have to fight every instinct I developed with potions from 60+ hours of playing the other two this last month.

[Avenged Probably]

I started nightmare a while ago and got as far as the boss at the end of the attack on Haven before becoming frustrated. 

[Benji]

What did you use? I went mage but taking attacks as a mage is terrible. I quite like tanking but I did that first time so I should probably do something else, but my instincts are saying I'll have an easier time because I like doing crowd control.

[Monkey D. Lars]

You can do Attack On Haven very easily! Just lure him to the gate. Climb up the mountain where you will be unreachable. All the baddies will follow. Except for the boss. Jump down near the castle. Get back down. Damage do boss. Repeat. Took me 4 hours to figure out. 

[Benji]

I tried sword and shield warrior. Much easier... Until the boss where all my fucking allies die in the late second/early third phase and fuck it up :/

[Avenged Probably]

I used Archer because fuck going near anyone (I'd already played as a mage on normal). Do you mean the big demon boss earlier on? I kept hiding behind the central whatever it is and the monster generally stays round front fighting the NPCs (you can also run round it faster than him if he chases).

Also get used to the manual revive, you're gonna need it on Nightmare.

[Benji]

So far the hardest part so far was the intro. Making sure to pick up all elfroot so I have regular potions and making regular visits to camp is making for steady growth. Lv6 at the moment, going to get up to Lv8 before doing next big story part as I suspect the story bosses will be the big problem and the guide I'm using suggests Lv7 for it.

[stokeriño]

Torn between slogging my way through the 80+ more online matches I'd have to play to reach Lv 37 on WWE 2K16 simply because THEN FINALLY IT WILL BE DONE AND CAN GO SIT ON A SHELF FOREVER and...you know...actually playing something that's fun.

[Benji]

Why not do something else and just do a couple a day for a month?

[Sam]

Just reached Home in Final Fantasy X. Having a blast with it thus far. Lulu and Auron are just powerhousing through everything at this point in time. 

[Benji]

Looking through my PS3 collection at games I need online trophies for and got the following list...

• BIOSHOCK 2
• DEAD ISLAND
• GHOSTBUSTERS - servers may be down permanently, not sure?
• GRAND THEFT AUTO IV
• LAST OF US
• LITTLE BIG PLANET
• RED DEAD REDEMPTION
• RESIDENT EVIL 5
• STREET FIGHTER IV
• UFC UNDISPUTED
• UNCHARTED 2
• UNCHARTED 3
• WIPEOUT HD

... so if anyone wants to play any of them online at some point then let me know. I can always boost with guys at the trophies forums, but I'd rather do it with EWB'ers since I don't actually post at the other place >_>

 

Dragon Age II
100% Progress: 46 of 55

Trophy count won't change any time soon as most trophies are either game completion or post-game DLC, but made some good progress. Decided to leave Hinterlands last night for Storm Coast and it's absurdly easy despite being on nightmare. I managed to take down the freaking giant at level 7 (the lowest suggested level for the region) >_> Got to Level 8 but going to finish up more Storm Coast stuff and move out to the Fallow Mire and Forbidden Oasis tonight and get over leveled for the story quest (Redcliffe Castle) as once you're in them you're stuck in them and I can't be arsed back tracking if I find I'm under leveled.

Majoooor warning on the online achievements for GTA IV, rank 10 will take you an age. And by an age, I mean solid months of just blitzing Hangmans NOOSE. Believe me.  

[Sam]

Phew, finally done with Darksiders II on the PS4. Quite a frustrating game at times as the control system doesn't always match what it wants you to do.

Helped mages, saved Redcliffe (again, fucking place), now I have to do the quest to actually close the breach, but trying to get to Lv11 before I do (guide says 7-11 for doing it and I'm Lv10 at the mo) but getting mad low on do-able quests. Tried going to Fallow Mire and got wrecked by those stupid skeletons, and I've closed all the rifts I can manage just now everywhere else. Someone give me some quests, damnit

Oh gawwwd I forgot how much the game opens up after the destruction of Haven. Such fantastic fun going around just doing random quests. And now I've got to Skyhold I can do "Botanist", the only other trophy in the main game besides the difficulty/completion ones (others are all DLC).

At Lv11 I tried taking on the first dragon (Ferelden Frostback) and got annihilated I think I may need to cool my jets on that.
