Thanks Soli.

Sorry everyone, I just had a shite week last week.

@Beo

Sorry everyone, I just had a shite week last week.

Hey it’s okay, I know the feeling.

May everyone have a good week this week and good luck with the competition!

[DarthMol]

Hi @Solitude sorry I meant to post the link to the topic I created last week: Vampire Survivors

So with the 30 replies I should have 2 points.

Still need to get that article done

[Solitude]

Okay cool, please remember to post the link next week.

[DarthMol]

Will do

My article and topic for this week:

Game Tester: Test Games for Fun and XP

The 2022 Academy Awards - Entertainment - Most Epic Win

The 2022 Academy Awards

I used to watch the Oscar nominated movies each year just to make my own mind up, but the past few years have been such lackluster movies I just don’t have the time or patients to sit through such snorefest movies anymore.

[czc]

Man still need to get on it this week.

[DieGrootHammer]

I’m just going to go ahead and forego any stresses of getting full marks for this week. With all the work I have, conferences, wife going back to work etc, things are hectic so I know I won’t have time to get the full 3 marks. I’ll try my best though.

[Wyvern]

To be honest I am not even trying for the foreseeable future, at least it means someone else will have decent chance of winning and not me

[czc]

There is still a whole year to go. Other people will get busy at other times.

[GregRedd]

Came here to say exactly that. I’m not hugely busy this month, but from next month things may get a little harder for me as time gets chewed up by other commitments.

Here is my topic and article for the week:

Total War: Warhammer III

I must admit, I’ve never really gotten into the grand strategy real time battles of the Total War series. Despite that I definitely felt that the Warhammer lore was a great pairing with the Total War model. I’ve got the first TW: Warhammer sitting in my backlog, but it was the shiny, brand new TW: Warhammer III releasing on Game Pass that prompted me to take a proper look. One thing I can say is the cinematics are truly epic, they definitely set the tone for this vast fantasy world. [S…

[DieGrootHammer]

I did nor manage to write an article, but here is my thread for the week. At least I got that done.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 Official Discussion Thread

So thanks to the wonderful suggestions by the community, I’ve started playing Divinity: Original Sin 2, and I know a lot of others have either played the game, are currently doing another playthrough, or want to play the game. For me, this game has been a revelation! It is such a wonderful, joyous experience and I NEED to talk about it. Currently, I’m still on the first island, the one with Fort Joy. In this campaign, I am playing as Ifan ben-Mezd and I’ve configured him to be a tank and a fig…

[DieGrootHammer]

Also, just did a count and it seems I managed to squeek in the 30 post as well. So not a bad week for me despite not being as active as I would like.

My thread and article for the 2022-02-14 → 2022-02-20

What do you do when you can't sleep

Like the title says, what do you do when you wake up at 2:00AM (thanks mosquito) and can’t get back to sleep. I end up watching stuff (youtube, series, movies)

Yay look at us raking up the points! Go us!

[DieGrootHammer]

To make sure I get at least one point, here is my thread…

Music and songs that make games epic

The soundtrack of a game is incredibly important, and many games sport some epic soundtracks. But sometimes a game has that one song that completely transforms the game, either during a mission, or a certain cutscene. So my question to you is, what has been the song or piece of music that made a game more epic? Either making you feel like a better badass in-game, tugging at your heartstrings, or filling you with a serene sense of wonder. There are a few games and songs that stand out for me. F…

The Bethesda Launcher is Over

Good news for those who dislike the fact that there are so many game launchers and clients that they have to keep with. (Go GOG Galaxy 2.0 already!) From April you’ll have one less launcher to worry about. The Bethesda.net Launcher is being put out to pasture, and Bethesda games will be migrating to Steam. [image] (So you get rid of one of the launchers, but your Steam backlog grows ) Bethesda, in their notice about the change, don’t give specific reason why the change is hap…
