    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I'm happy to hear the reviews are good because it was the game I am looking for the most for 2017.

    Overwatch

    Yeah I was placed in bronze, around 1400 or so. Placement were like 4-6 or something. I'm not really that good at FPS games, Overwatch pretty much being my first multiplayer one. Getting diamond if I can would be cool, but while I didn't drop out of platinum, it's not easy staying...

    I pretty much stopped Competitive about a week or so ago shortly after I hit platinum and they announced the end of the season. Too much trolling and people not caring. I'm waiting for S4 before I hit competitive again. I'm hoping I'll place high gold or maybe even platinum. And goal will be...

    Is there a Jewish villain in the DC universe that suicide squad could tackle?

    NHL 2016-17 Season

    I'm happy to see Therrien go, never really liked him. While I think Julien is a better coach, I don't like him either. They're too similar, very defensive minded boring style of hockey. At least Julien has won. :)

    Something funny happened to me the other day. I was attacked while grinding, guy was stronger than me so I ran away...I managed to reach the road and he was still chasing me. As he attacked me, someone was riding by on their horse, and he killed me, but the horse also died in the AOE madness...

    I finally got 56. :) Damn, the quest for the Awakening are hard...on my tamer. One mob almost 1 shotted me, no way I'll be able to solo that part. Can't wait to be able to complete it though.

    Finally made it to platinum. :) A long climb from bronze.

    Overwatch

    I think the issue is that the hook is an automatic kill on too many heroes right now. Essentially everyone but the tanks is an automatic kill. I think it will require a bit more skills now, to insure the headshot after the hook, and moving forward a bit to melee. It will still require some...

    Roadhog's hook nerf incoming. That didn't take long. :) Cooldown up from 6 to 8 secs. Distance you're pulled in front of him goes from 2 meters to 3.5 meters. Spread on primary attack is reduced by 20%. People saying that it will mostly prevent the melee combo, and making it slightly harder to...

    I'm looking forward to this, it looks pretty good but that cage fight was pretty awful.

    Overwatch

    Well another hero that could deal with Pharah is always welcome. :) The change seem interesting, it might address the issue of him being somewhat too powerful in low rankings when people can't deal with him, especially when sitting behind a Reinhardt shield, while actually making him better...

    Black Desert

    I'm pretty sure I'll just buy stuff from now on, as I said I have about 200+ Black Stones for both Armor and Weapons. I've been holding back on enhancing for a week or two to make up my mind about whether I should commit to buying gear, or enhance my gear myself. I'm still 55, just 10% in right...

    I went 2-2 tonight...all 4 games essentially decided by who had the better Pharah, this shit is getting old.

    My highest is a 55 Tamer, I like her a lot, fun gameplay. I'm not sure how she compares to other classes at this level for farming PVE but it feels ok to me. While I love most of the game, I hate the item enhancement system with the Black Stones. So much so, that I am vastly under geared right...

    A good evening ending with a troll, and people leaving. I got a new season high at least, getting close to platinum. :)

    You can adjust in game sensitivity per hero. Not that you really want to since it will screw up your aiming when switching often to different heroes. It is useful for Reinhardt though as he benefits from higher sensitivity to swing his hammer around, some people use lower sensitivity on...

    Overwatch

    There are a few characters that don't require that much aiming. Reaper is pretty forgivable if you have bad aim, since his range is so short...you are basically in their face all the time. He's also not a twitch character, since he just walk slowly everywhere and then shoot you in the face...

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    I enjoyed PoE, but didn't finish it. I was about 3/4 in when I stopped. There was a huge balance(nerf) at some point that kind of cripple my main character and group and progression became a bitch. Not impossible, but hard enough that I was not enjoying the game anymore. I didn't like Tyranny...

    After falling almost 300SR during the week, I made it back on Sunday, before losing last 2 and calling it a day. I am almost back to season high so it's good. A few observation/frustration with the state of the game in gold rank right now. Was too many games won or lost by not being to get...

    Lucifer

    This show continues to be amazing. Tom Ellis is just awesome as Lucifer. He is the anchor of the show, but he's no longer alone. This season has fleshed out a lot of the supporting cast to the point where pretty much all of them are good solid characters now. At the end, I kept thinking that...

    Grats, that's nice. Started at 1400, and at 2300 or so now. I'm not playing as much as I want though recently. I always like to have 1 or 2 QP warm-up matches in me before I play competitive...and haven't had time for much more than my warm-up matches this week. I hope for platinum...diamond...

    After a few days away from competitive, mostly practicing Mei. I finally played competitive again last night, climbed to mid 2300, in what was mostly a win one, then lose one kind of night. I did find the courage to play Mei in competitive in a game or two, it went very well, I am now confident...

    Well that was funny. We're facing a full group of 6. We're a group of 3 , a group of 2 and me solo. We destroy them in the first match...and then they all leave as a group. :)

    Yeah Pharah is definitely a problem at my rank. I found that when I play Zenyatta and keep her discorded and help our dps to kill her it make a huge difference. At this rank, just hoping your soldier can kill her easily by himself will usually not work well, people don't have the aim to...

    I only pug in competitive. Not ideal but you have to adjust your expectation accordingly. You'll get some terrible teams, but will also face some terrible teams too...again this balances out in my opinion. It just makes a few games not so fun. I don't know anyone who plays, used to play with...

    I don't care about comp in QP, KCVIX said it's a place to practice characters. I used to try and make selection to have a good comp only to realize I would never get to practice new ones. :) Going in with that attitude allows me to enjoy it. Since both teams pretty much end up with a horrible...

    This season has been interesting for me so far. :) Started at 1400 then slowly ranked up to 2050, went back down to 1600. At this point I made an alt account, which placed at 2550, ranked it up to 2700. Then I went back to my regular account with a bit of confidence now that I knew I could play...

    I've been back into this for a month or so and I am having a lot of fun. I'm playing casual though, and mostly just solo, or duo with a friend. I do whatever I feel like with no particular care about progression...I'll get there eventually. :)

    I'd like the Zenyatta skin, it looks pretty cool and I use him a lot these days, he's been my go to character in recent weeks to rank up. Allows me to fill a secondary healer role, which is not often filled while still impacting the game as DPS, and discord is great. At my rank of gold, Pharaah...

    Well that was fun, after playing an alt account in platinum ranking for a while, I decided to go back to my normal account which had fallen from 2000 to 1600, ranked up all the way to 2077 which is a season high on that account. It seemed a lot easier after a week or so at platinum. I think I...

    It's such an easy target though, material essentially write itself. :) That being said the show is at it's best when they do their expose on some stuff that isn't getting much coverage elsewhere.

    I thought bronze toxicity wasn't that bad, found silver and gold to be worse, so far platinum has been pretty good too. Things tend to get more toxic the closer people are to getting to the next rank. For example a silver player who is at 1975, so 1 win from gold will more likely end up toxic...

    So I made another account for fun. Regular account placed 1400, climbed to 2050, went back down to 1800 and been around 1800-2000 since. New account, placed 2550, climbed to 2750, and been around 2600-2700 since, which is about a week. Small sample I can still totally collapse I guess.
