Today I played WotR Lord of Nothing and did the cave, tower, and jungle.
I stopped before the Shadow because I remember going through that as fast as possible because Creepy, and it is sleepy time now.
I got the two fiddly achievements I was trying for, including one that *should* have worked already but I found a guide that said it was bugged so you had to do the thing a particular way that would usually be losing. So I did a proper save, played it the right way, did another proper save, and went back and did it the wrong way. Then I exited the game and loaded the right way version. And then it went Ping and I got an achievement something like 0.6% of players do.
This is not because I'm impressive, its because hardly any percent of people seem to actually play their game, the can't miss it achievements aren't impressive percents on the xbox either.
I also spent some of today playing using the actual xbox controller rather than the wired powera version I usually use, because the controls were being quirky and I wondered if it was game or controller. Either way it stopped. But, I relearned why I don't use the xbox one. It is just different enough everything Bothers Me and the buttons click Wrong and I can't put my fingers in the exactly places. Blah.
This is not exciting gaming news.
But it passes the time.
I'm never going to get 100% of achievements because already Core difficulty is annoyingly hard instead of just quite challenging. There's more difficulties above that and all you get for it is a finished the whole thing on that difficulty trophy. ... the highest difficulty one I believe is called Test of the Starstone, which, would be nice to be able to say I passed.
The weather is nicer outside but my flat does not feel like changing, except to intermittently feel like if you put a wet sponge in a microwave. Dryer is better.
But basically had an okay day.
