Supertember!

This is when all hell broke loose.
That moment when Lightning and Thunder are coming in really really quick succession and you need to move in an open car park with you being the tallest thing out there.
For some reason this “accidental” pic is my favorite!

Now for the games!
Managed to get through a whole bunch of them this month!
My mission to play more Humble Bundle Monthly games was a big success.
I dislike walls of text but luckily I am not required to enter much since most have a well known reputation!


Max Payne 3 was one hell of a cinematic experience much like I was watching an 8 hour movie!
I actually liked Bioshock Infinite this time round, First time must have been disappointed since I played it right after going through Bioshock 1 and 2, with the atmosphere being very different. Glad I tried it again, Loved Elizabeth’s character arc. From her initial hopping like a little girl around you to the much more serious toned version near the end.
Momodora and Hyper Light Drifter were two little gems of games.
Worms WMD and Steamworld Heist were my two turn based games with the the first being a nostalgia trip and the second one being a huge hit in the art and sound department!
Loved the band actually playing their music as characters.
The Last Door was not my greatest experience, it started of great digging the story and such but then being point and click ruined it a bit for me.
I am not the greatest with these type of games which killed the moving story more then once.
Kero Blaster, absolute fun
Spear of Destiny, awesome classic
Along the Edge, quite intriguing
Idol Magical Girl Chiru Chiru Michiru, no sexiness however they hooked me when they “body-cavity searched” a cat to search for explosions, so… yeah… that just happened?!?!
Stories Untold, having been that scared and intrigued since the X-Files in the 90’s. Don’t want to watch but have to watch at the same time. Go for conflict of emotions!
Banner Saga 1 and 2, total awesomeness and decisions making!
Infested Planet, great massive top down shooter!

Duds of the month!
Tried playing a few more wins but both Wasted and Witches, Heroes and Magic couldn’t present me with gratification.

Now it is time to disappear, I fear for my backlog now that I have purchased PUGB
IF there are any players here feel free to add me. :)

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) yeah I was comming in quick succession I’m SO SORRY

I love storms that must have been exhilarating! also a bit scary
YOu played so many good games omg momodora and hyper light oh my!
I actually want to play everything you posted now.

codasim

Thank Humble Bundle for that.
I understand what many people say but their monthly is always great for people like me who don’t know too many games and aren’t afraid to try something new!

I love a good storm myself too however I prefer to be home when all hell breaks loose. Traffic can become a nightmare if it happens at the wrong time.

Now that’s a cool shot! The small camera shake makes it look even better. :) But what’s going on in the building across the street? It looks like it’s exploding with light.

I also played Max Payne 3 and I agree, it was a cutscene bonanza! A bit too much on some chapters, but at least it was entertaining.

By the way, did you play the Burial at Sea episodes?

codasim

Haven’t yet but Bioshock is still installed on my pc, will go back to it.
Was considering if it was worth it but now that you mentioned it. I believe that it must be!

Max Payne’s third act made me believe I was John McClane from Die Hard.
The things he went through…

Not sure where the flood of light on the street comes from though. The building’s light is normal since it is another car park (I think,.. will have to pay attention to it later this afternoon when I leave)

uguleley

They are worth it, certainly! I often recommend them for anyone who enjoyed playing through the main storyline.

Kaleith

That’s *a lot* of games for one month, congratulations!

What

codasim

Exactly my expression when it was leading up to it! :)

Joe

Seeing as you’ve played both Banner Saga games this month I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on how they compare! I bought the second game quite recently as I really enjoyed the first one, is it just more of the same or have they introduced new features? And I’m really excited to play Hyper Light Drifter soon too, wow you’ve played some great games! I’m happy you didn’t get hit by lightning!

codasim

Banner Saga 2 is a seamless continuation of Banner Saga 1.
More details are being revealed about what is going on and why.
Also I felt that they moved towards some more adult themed issues which made the decisions feel a bit heavier in the end.

Joe

Thanks for the info. That’s good to know, more story and harder decisions is always nice! I can only really remember there being one truly sad moment in the first game and that was right at the end, I should probably replay it first as it has been a while.
