5. Beat a game released in 2017
Everybody's Golf I've been slowly playing through this game for the last month or so. I was initially planning on getting the platinum trophy, but after doing a whole bunch of grinding and realizing I wasn't even close, I decided to just finish up the story. 42/50 --- https://psnprofiles.com/Simmons-94 Congrats BKSheikah, BYIG Guru champion! ...

Also, I have a question that @Robazoid might be able to clear up:
I can't recall if the "beat a game in a new series" challenge means that I need to play the first game in a series, or any game in a series I've never played before. My memory has me leaning towards the latter. Also since I'm on the subject, would a game like Telltale Batman S1 fit there? Some people consider all Telltale games to kind of be part of the same series, but my thinking is that each different story (Borderlands/TWD) is it's own series. I know each list is up to the specific person, but I was just wondering what others thought. --- https://psnprofiles.com/Simmons-94 Congrats BKSheikah, BYIG Guru champion! ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's up to you how you want to count it, but I've always considered it just any game in a series you've never tried before. If you consider Telltale Batman to be a distinct series from other Telltale or Batman games then that's fine!

Now I have my own question about if something should count for a challenge! Would anyone mind if I used three loosely connected Life is Strange games for the three games in a series challenge? They'd be:
-Life is Strange -Life is Strange: Before the Storm (it likely won't be fully released by the end of the year but I'll play the two episodes that definitely will release multiple times to make up for that) -Love is Strange (A fanmade LiS visual novel that took me five hours to get through but isn't official) I'm just not sure if it's right to count BtS since it won't be finished or if a fanmade thing could even be considered part of a 'series' for this challenge, but I doubt I'll finish three other games in a series so this is my only shot. --- **R.O.B.A.Z.O.I.D** ...

Applekidrose 10/11/17 7:45:48 AM #258: |
as for Before the Storm, I'd say you can either count it for this year or next year, but not both. So which would you rather?
and as for Love is Strange, doujin games definitely count! They're games, after all! also gosh please tell me more about this --- Give a good greeting. Try not to give up. Sleep well, eat well. If you're troubled, talk to someone! You're likely to succeed if you try. ... Copied to Clipboard!

also gosh please tell me more about this http://loveisstrange-vn.tumblr.com I thought it was really good (aside from one or two odd choices that I could easily look past). It basically takes the cast of LiS and puts them in a universe where no time shenanigans or terrible things happened. This allows Max to date all the ladies which I appreciated as an unrepentant fanboy! All the characters were faithfully written too, and the various routes each had a lot of heart. --- **R.O.B.A.Z.O.I.D** (On mobile) ... Copied to Clipboard!

Shovel Knight Specter of Torment beated
that was... kinda sad! but good game, as always. The platforming is tough but fair. Occasionally I'd get frustrated when I'd do a double mid-air and go careening to my death, but that's the sticky button on my controller's fault. Gonna buy a new one soon. Wonder if they'll ever make a new game/DLC in the Shovel Knight world that takes place later in time, rather than earlier? I just feel so sorry for Donovan! --- Give a good greeting.

5. Beat a game released in 2017
Everybody's Golf (2017) While the initial parts of the game can be rather annoying with limited distance and control, as you get farther in it expands very well. The online portions aren't that bad to explore either, and the "microtransactions" that some reviews mention are unnecessary since getting free gems to upgrade clubs is a painless experience. I still have a bunch of trophies to collect, including beating all the VS characters again, filling up the gallery, and hitting a condor. I'm still having fun with the game so none of that is an issue. Moved Puyo Puyo Tetris to 31.

49. Choose a random page on TVTropes and beat something from the video game section
The page I chose was pre-ass-kicking lines. The game that had this trope was Vice City. Tommy Vercetti has a special way with words. "I'm going to shut that big mouth of yours!" "Stop running, you fat slimeball!" "I just wanted to piss you off before I kill you." "This is the last dance for Lance Vance!" and I'm not sure if this is when Tommy fights an NPC or not, but it still is a funny ass quote: "I did your wife you poor bastard!" --- "Might controls everything, and without strength, you cannot protect anything, let alone yourself"- Vergil ...

13. Beat a WRPG
Mass Effect: Andromeda Finally. I could've just sped through the story here, but it wouldn't be an authentic Mass Effect experience if I didn't do everything the game had to offer, so I took my time and did nearly every side mission, loyalty mission, and got all planets to 100% viability. This is one of my favourite series, so I was pretty disappointed when I heard about how much of a disaster this game was apparently was. Overall, I had a great time with it, though. It's definitely the worst Mass Effect game, but it's still more Mass Effect and a good game on it's own, which is all I can ask for. 43/50 --- https://psnprofiles.com/Simmons-94 Congrats BKSheikah, BYIG Guru champion! ...
