ArkOfTurus has beaten Guacamelee 2

Well... It's more Guacamelee. Still fun (although some of the challenges you have to beat for the true ending left me with a bad taste in my mouth. I tend to like difficult 2d platformers, but Guacamelee 2's challenge platforming sections weren't great,) but not really much new to talk about.

I'm still not sure whether I'll get to Arkham Asylum or not. Still only played about 90 minutes of it, but maybe it'll hook me at some point. Honestly, though, four nominations already seems a bit excessive. I'd like to wait until after the drawing to beat it, regardless.

And it seems that Octo isnt as good as DQ11, based on the posts here?

Longer.

Octopath was kind of fun, but the gameplay got stale after about 30 hours for me, and the story/characters aren't really worth mentioning.

I did!

The revelation mode was a pretty novel idea for adding replay value, although it didn't add as much as I was hoping for. Can't help but think there won't be enough momentum behind this to warrant a translation, but I thought the same thing about Requiem for Innocence, so hopefully I'm wrong again. The Mitsuji stuff didn't really excite me that much, but I'll give it a chance if it does get one.

Accidentally started another playthrough of Arcanum, and now that's all I feel like playing. Oops. I also have Code Vein coming in the mail, so I'm not sure if I'll get around to finishing Guacamelee 2 and Arkham Asylum after all (I'm two hours into the former, one into the latter.)

This is the third time I've tried playing Arkham Asylum, and the third time I've quickly found an excuse to play something else. I don't know why it keeps happening, it certainly doesn't seem to be a bad game, and I've enjoyed the combat in other games that have copied the style, but I can never seem to stick with it.

Well, at least it was the one of my nominations I liked the least. I probably should have picked Heel Turn 2 instead, but I figured my list could use a short song (especially since that one's two minutes longer than it needs to be.)

Best of luck with the housing situation.

I think there were only two levels (not counting the practice one) in the entire game that I found 5/5 keys in the first time. It's part of why I don't know how much I want to try the extra hard levels. I know I'd have to go back and find at least almost every life key.

Final time of 6:23, 80% items collected.

It's been a long time since I've played it last. The things that used to bug me back then still bug me now (especially the over-reliance on hidden blocks,) and I found myself wishing for a better map pretty often, but it's still a very fun game, and I'm glad I finally got around to playing it again.

At least I was right about something. Lost in both leagues, would have won, and made the playoffs in both if I started Carson.

Dunno why Jonathan Williams decided to suck this week, but I don't appreciate it very much.

I think? I beat all the numbered doors and got four endings. There are the skull doors, but apparently they were DLC in the original Cloudbuilt, so I'm going to say good enough. Judging by the skull level I tried/looked up a video of, I am never beating them.

So, uh, about that maybe not playing through Super Cloudbuilt thing?

I got one of the endings in Super Cloudbuilt.

Not sure that that's sufficient to count it as beating it (I'm definitely going to get as many endings as I can,) but I thought it'd be funnier if I said I beat it on the first day. Needless to say, I liked it a lot. The platforming feels amazing, the controls and sense of speed are perfect, and the OST is phenomenal (I remember liking a couple of songs from VGMC, but everything here is great, too.) Combat can drag the pacing down a bit, but I enjoyed it more often than not, and the art style is very pretty. The story/writing hasn't done anything for me so far, but they never get in the way. Fantastic game so far, really glad it got nominated. Thanks again for the key, KCF!

The one player I drafted in all three of my leagues this year is Chris Carson. I probably need a good showing in two leagues to make the playoffs. I have absolutely no idea what to do with him.

My back-ups are competent enough to start (Singletary and Jonathan Williams in one, Williams and a bunch of mid-tier WRs in another one that's 1 PPR,), but Carson has been so good (as a fantasy option) this season, and a vast majority of projections are saying he's the best option this week. My gut is telling me to bench him, but my gut is almost as bad at fantasy football as my brain is.

I think I'm going to end up benching him, but I feel like whatever I do is going to be the wrong choice.
