I recently finished my second playthrough, this time on Standard (Classic) and would like to move on to Insanity.

I tried jumping straight to Insanity after finishing my first playthrough, but I noticed that it's that annoying kind of difficulty where all the enemies just take a stupid amount of damage; they don't even give you enough ammo to take out any of the infected, so my guess it's going to be a lot of avoiding the enemies.

I solved one of my problems...not having a knife to fend off enemies when they latch on. I unlocked the indestructible knife for Grace which should give me some breathing room, but besides avoiding that enemies, anyone have any tips?

 

Up until recently, I wasn't a fan of rogue-lites...rogue-likes? I played Hades 1 and 2, which I did enjoy, but I really started to like these kinds of games with Absolum. If you haven't played that yet, you're missing out.

I was kind of on the fence with Deadzone simply because it has one of those generic names that doesn't incite confidence, but dang, it is genuinely fun if you're into this sort of game. The elemental abilites make a huge difference and it's fun coming up with extremely overpowered combos with your team.

I played them in order. Actually, I finished RE 8/Village the other day. Already digging into Requiem.

 

What multiplayer game are you most excited for so far this year? I've been intrigued by the idea of Duskbloods every since it was announced and I read through the Creator's Voice blog.

On top of that, I was excited to see Turok Origins get announced. The last time I played a Turok games was Seeds of Evil back when it was originally released and I loved it.

I'm pretty confident in the game since Sabre Interactive has been absolutely killing it lately.

Our core values

Help first: No player is a burden. Be patient, provide guidance, and not just a snarky “just read the wiki” attitude.

Earned Respect: Reputation comes from actions, not tenure. Contribute, mentor, and share solid strategies.

Transparency: Decisions (raid schedules, loot rules, bans) are posted publicly. No hidden agendas, no secret cliques.

Integrity: Cheating, exploiting bugs, or using unauthorized tools is a hard‑stop. We play within Nintendo’s terms of service and report serious issues to developers.

Inclusivity: Discrimination of any kind is banned outright. Everyone—regardless of gender, race, sexuality, ability, age, or nationality—gets the same courtesy and opportunity to contribute.

Representing the guild is not required, but if you are interested in doing so, you can use the colour palette below: Guild colour palette

For games that allow for the creation of guilds or teams, these are the colours we'll be using. Note: I'm not a designer, so the current logo is just a placeholder until we get a real one made.

Whether you're stuck on a brutal boss, hunting down those last few collectibles, or just want to share the joy of completing something challenging, you'll find teammates who genuinely care about your progress—not just showing off their own.

Happy adventuring!

Battle Network. At the time, it just felt different and I enjoyed it way more than X or any of the other platformer Megaman games. I still even have the toys from back in the day; A real P.E.T with chips. Safe to say I was obsessed. 😆

Up until playing 7, I hadn't played any Resident Evil since Revelations on 3DS and then the original release of 4 on Gamecube, so it had been a really long time. Which is probably a good thing since I didn't have any fresh comparisons going into playing these 3.

I'll be starting Resident Evil Village

I picked up the Generation Pack with the launch of Requiem. I just finished 7 which I really enjoyed. A couple of the boss encounters are a little fiddly, but other than that, I thought it was excellent.

It's just way too grindy, and not even the fun kind of grindy. Which is a lot coming from me since I can sit there and hunt the same Monster in Monster Hunter 50 times in a row to get what I need and not feel bored or frustrated. In the Invalice Chronicles, everything feels like it drags on-and-on to an exhausting level.

It's likely my own fault, though. I haven't played a tactics style game since one of the Fire Emblem games on Wii or 3DS and I'm probably not remembering how they truely played. Maybe down the line I'll go back to it and give it another try.

Most recently, Final Fantasy Tactics: The Invalice Chronicles. I remember loving Tactics Advance back in the day, but I tried several times to get into the Invalice Chronicles and I just can't do it.
