Did I Actually Just Finish Dark Souls II?

Posted on May 13, 2016 by baudattitude

Yes.  Yes, I did. Dark Souls II is one of those games that is a little divisive among fans of the series.  It’s a little less free-form and a little more linear than the original Dark Souls, and there are … Continue reading →

So That’s “Jolly Co-Operation”

Posted on May 5, 2016 by baudattitude

While the Souls series is somewhat famous for its approach to multiplayer, I managed to get through the first two games barely interacting with anyone else. Demon’s Souls is, after all, pretty ancient and doesn’t have a lot of people … Continue reading →

Posted on May 3, 2016 by baudattitude

The second Vita rhythm game I mashed my way through over the last few days of being miserable in bed will be very familiar to anyone who’s played any of the entries in the Project Diva series, because the rhythm … Continue reading →

The Idolmaster: Must Songs (Red) : Banging on the Bongos Like A Chimpanzee

Posted on May 3, 2016 by baudattitude

I managed to pick up a godawful flu last week and spent a solid five days in bed either sleeping or wishing I could sleep. During the “wishing I could sleep” bits, I played through a couple of Vita rhythm … Continue reading →

Did I Actually Just Finish Dark Souls?

Posted on April 30, 2016 by baudattitude

Yes.  Yes, I did. So, for the record, I made it a full 24 hours between finishing Demon’s Souls and buying Dark Souls from Steam.  I had grandiose plans to wait for a sale, but it turned out that I … Continue reading →

On Youthful Rejections Of Gender Stereotypes

Posted on April 28, 2016 by baudattitude

Like pretty much every child with a pulse, I loved me some Pac-Man in the early 80s.  I had a Pac-Man lunchbox, a cassette tape of the Pac-Man Fever album, books on how to beat Pac-Man…  I shoved a lot … Continue reading →

Senran Kagura 2: Electric Boobaloo

Posted on April 26, 2016 by baudattitude

Senran Kagura 2 is possibly one of the most-inappropriately-titled sequels of recent memory, being at least the fourth – and possibly fifth, depending on how you count the Japanese releases – game in the series. I’m given to understand that … Continue reading →

Did I Actually Just Finish Demon’s Souls?

Posted on April 17, 2016 by baudattitude

Yes.  Yes, I did. In the last world, I finally got invaded by another player.  I was trying to turn a dragon into a pincushion at the time, so I was a LITTLE distracted, but I was able to pivot … Continue reading →

Demon Hunter Amy

Posted on April 16, 2016 by baudattitude

Two More Down

Posted on April 12, 2016 by baudattitude

Flamelurker managed to kill me twice and I got VERY lucky on the third attempt; I had him down to a sliver and made the mistake of standing still to get the kill shot off.  It landed on him just … Continue reading →
