Backup your files beforehand to an external HDD or something. It's probably not going to happen but depending on whether or not Windows registry is messed up or something like that I have had Restorations fail during the process. That's usually just a good rule of thumb when you're doing anything major with Windows whether repair or restoration or whatever.

Hehehehehe, Obsidian Orbital, the station youtuber ObsidianAnt uses as a home base in Maia Sector in Elite Dangerous, has just been attacked by the in-game alien threat the Thargoids. A day after he puts out a video about stations maybe not being repaired. LOL.

Anybody here played the Witcher 2 on the Xbox? If so, how much does it change the story to not import your save versus playing on the PC with imported save?

Witcher 2 on the PC has been a complete clunkfest for me control wise, even using a controller, but I don't really want to sacrifice the save import ability unless it doesn't matter that much.

played Witcher 2 on Pc before witcher 1 and it doesn't change the story much outside a couple of lines, if I remember correctly.

"The Death of Dianixis: Ahriman had long sought the skull of Lepidus, a dead hero of the 2nd Black Crusade, for reasons that remain his own. The skull, dipped in silver and engraved with ten thousand words of detestation, lay in the polar shrine city on the world of Dianaxis. A conspiracy to obtain the skull by guile had already failed, so Ahriman turned to more direct means. Since the end of the Scouring, countless billions have fought and died in the shadow of the Eye of Terror. For almost eight Terran millennia the remains of many of these honoured dead lay on Dianaxis. Heaps of charred bones, the serene bodies of Imperial martyrs, and the polished skulls of Space Marines all came to the mausoleum world. On the surface of Dianaxis, the plains of bones extended from shrine city to shrine city, and grew ever deeper with each passing year. The cities themselves were built from the skulls and bones of the most heroic dead. So sacred and revered was Dianaxis that a dozen Space Marine Chapters maintained honour guards and bastions on its surface. Star fortresses ringed its approaches, and millions of troops stood sentinel over the skulls of those who had died to hold the darkness in abeyance. Across the reaches of space, Ahriman burned worlds and sent souls shrieking into the Warp. As the murdered worlds spun into alignment with each other they created an arcane pattern in the stars with Dianaxis at its heart. As the great design locked into place, Dianaxis' sun was pulled from reality, leaving a howling wound in the sky of the mausoleum world. Blood and fire spread across the heavens. The bones of the dead howled the last thoughts of their lives, and rainbow fire crawled across the ossuary towers. Daemons poured through the hole that had been the sun, tumbling onto the mausoleum world like falling stars. The Imperial defenders screamed as the children of Chaos ate their souls. Amidst the slaughter, Ahriman appeared outlined in lightning, ringed by sorcerers and rubricae. Power rolled from the circle of sorcerers and they strode through the battle, killing the defenders and dissolving daemons with arcane fire. Space Marine Chapter Honour Guards came against him, but were reduced to ashes and silent screams with a gesture. Fire Bane, the last Warlord-class Titan of the Legio Officium, strode to war from its shrine. The cry of its warhorns echoed across the damned world, and its weapons burnt a path towards Ahriman’s circle. Drawing together the power of his fellow sorcerers, Ahriman forced the war machine to its knees, before pulling the core of its plasma reactor through its carapace. At last, Ahriman held the skull of Lepidus in his hand, as the battle between men and daemons raged around him. Raising the skull to his eyes he found the one word he sought etched on the skull's surface. Letting the skull fall from his hand, he and his forces vanished, leaving the world of bones to the howls of daemons and the cries of the dying."

It's fairly minor, couple dialogue bits, I think some money and items, but nothing terribly important.

If anyone is wondering, Dark Souls 3 is still fucking bullshit if you play as a caster.

[Alienmorph]

Isn't that how it always goes when playing spellcaster in a fantasy setting? Getting your ass kicked for 3/4 of the game and then you become a demi-god near the end?

That face when you've been away from your computer and substituting it with a tablet for well over a month and everything looks so familiar, yet so different when it's back up on the big screen. Had to give the tech guys the permission to wipe my OS and they installed Windows 10 in my Win 7's place. Haven't tried any games yet. Mostly because I haven't manually logged into Steam in years and have completely forgotten the password and I'm getting mighty hungry. Things are working fine so far, though. Like riding a bike.

I even installed the new graphics card on my own. For someone who has the dexterity of a pickle and hands start to shake profusely while under any amount of stress, I like to think that I did a good there. Chrome forgetting my tabs is a bit annoying, though.

Good job braving that out.

Or you get to summon gods to do the bitch work for you, like in any Final Fantasy game.

Speaking of fantasy, I've been following D&D streams during my computer absence (the TeamFourStar guys and Takahata101's group) on my tablet (fuck the CrunchyRoll app for making me sit through the five minutes of unrelated pig slop they call ads, by the way) and I started to realize how much Divinity Original Sins 2 has in common with it, which only made me more and more interested. Also made it easier for me to understand what's going on.

Then I looked up different abilities and such on Roll20 and that got me hooked. The warlock was the most luring because of the different pacts you can make with a wide variety of deities. That and I've been listening to a lot of the Stormlight Archive during these weeks and was instantly drawn to the ability Pact of the Blade, which lets you summon a melee weapon of your choice out of thin air. With the right bond, you can gain the ability Hurl Through Hell, which allows you to literally send people to hell for a brief time when you stab them.

It made me really tempted to try a campaign on my own, but I don't know any people around where I live that are interested in that sort of thing. I could do it through Roll20, but time zones would get in the way there too.

[Alienmorph]

Some of the 40k Text-to-Speech guys have some fun D&D games going too, I do like to listen to that kind of stuff while I work.

In Dark Souls 1, 2 and Bloodborne, yes.

In Dark Souls 3? No.

Basically in Dark Souls 1 and 2 your cast speed was an slow, but enemies gave you enough time to get a cast off. In Bloodborne enemies were incredibly fast and aggressive, but cast speeds were made significantly faster. Even though that game was predominantly a melee game, you could still play it as a caster quite effectively.

Dark Souls 3 has Dark Souls 1 cast speeds, with Bloodborne enemy speed and aggression. And places all of the mid and high level spells at the last quarter of the game. And more than half of the bosses and enemies are resistant to Magic.

And NONE of this is taking into account that they also significantly lowered the tracking rate and poise damage spells do. You used to have to dodge roll to avoid spells, now you just have to casually move left or right.

It is utter bullshit.

Too bad that I'm burned out on visual novels and that

► Show Spoiler

most "horror games" don't do anything for me, since they're more startling than scary

and I've already seen the twist on YouTube, otherwise I'd play it.

Monika (or Monica? Eh.) was a treat, though.

Oh and Hawaii got scared shitless because of a ballistic missile alert that was supposed to be a drill, but the "this is not a drill" version got aired by mistake.

I spoiled the entire thing for myself and it was still extremely effective.
