March 2019 report
Small progress, but great games played !
During march, I've played a lot of games: around 20 different games played, including Steam and Uplay games (I played a bit of Far Cry 3 and Watch Dogs 1). I managed to finish some nice games during a backlog fighting event, but not as much as I wanted since a lot of my time went into playing The Division 1.
I had this game for a long time but never played a lot. Someone gave me an AMD coupon for the second game, but I'm still waiting for the game code to activate. While waiting, I thought it was the right time to play the first one. And I really love it ! I'm almost level 30 and finished all story missions and it's awesome. Can't wait to play the second game !
Also, I was lucky enough to win some great games this month. I got Kingdom Come, Frostpunk and Ori. I only started KCD and after 14 hours in it, I really love this game. I'm a fan of RPGs but this one is different as it's really realistic and immersive, there's no magic potions, spells and dragons... And it's great this way. The story is really good from what I've seen so far.
I also played and finished Metro 2033 Redux on GOG version, and it's an awesome FPS !
Not a bad month for backlog fighting, even if I didn't finished any ABC Challenge games...
And tell me, how was your month ? What fun did you played ?

I've beaten this game in coop with my 6 years son. We didn't got the 100% but finished all story stages and got some fun playing in open mode too. It's really well-done and it's a great game for kids, with some tricky parts that require some skills if you want to progress.
Not a bad game, but not something I will remember for a long time… It's short, and I played it during a week-end at my fathers house, where there's only a toaster PC. Some parts where fun, and some others where really annoying (the final boss battle for example…)
Beautiful game with nice story and background on Inuit way of life, but the gameplay can be really annoying. I died a lot and had to repeat some parts more than 10 times because controls are somehow not precise enough. I didn't played the DLC but I'm not sure I will as I've read it's harder than base game.
Great little gem, really short but beautifully crafted. The atmosphere is awesome, and the story too. I'll come back to get all achievements.
I've beaten this game in Redux version on GOG, so the progress is not up-to-date on Steam. Awesome FPS with incredible atmosphere and it can be really scary. The shooting part is well-made, and the story is not bad. One of the best FPS I've played !

If you found the controls of Never Alone difficult I definitely think you’d find the DLC more frustrating. Played coop with my brother & we didn’t really have trouble with the base game besides that one polar bear bit, but fought against the controls and timing much more with the DLC. I wouldn’t say it was difficult persay, rather there’s a few parts that are much more time consuming than it needed to be, stopping the flow of gameplay.
Happy to hear you enjoyed What Remains of Edith Finch. :) Definitely need to put that at the top of my to-be-played pile, meant to last month but put it off.
Looks like you added some great games, enjoy!
OK thanks for your opinion on Never Alone DLC, I think I’ll pass for now, until I really want to test my patience !
And yes you should try Edith Finch, it’s really good and also really short, you can finish it in an evening.
The screenshot is from Kingdom Come, is it? Has an interesting look to it.
I didn’t like Metro 2033 too much, glad you on the other hand enjoyed it as much as you did :)
Yes it’s a screenshot from Kingdom Come. This game as really impressive graphics with a light management that I’ve never seen before. Everything looks so real !
How scary is Metro 2033? Really scary? I’ve heard a lot about the Metro games and they’re riiiight on the cusp of the kinds of games I would play. Like, the amount of shit I’d like about it is the same as the amount of shit I wouldn’t like about it.
I’ve also heard it’s really hard, and very resource-manage-y?
I really don’t like scary horror games: I can’t play Dead Space, Alien Isolation or Amnesia for example. But Metro 2033 is right on the edge: there’s some scary parts, but no jump scares, it’s more a scary ambiance and sound design. There’s is one level that is really stressfull and scary, even if it takes place in a really bright stage, but you encounter monsters that you can’t beat (well… you can but its’ better to avoid the fight…) and you have to face them, really impressive part that I had troubles to go through. But overall it’s OK, you have monsters that jump on you but you have time to kill them before or avoid them.
I didn’t found the game too hard but I didn’t played in the most difficult setting. You have the choice to go on a full survival hardcore experience or a more casual one where you find plenty of ammo and filters.
Oh hell yeah, baby mode! Maybe I will indeed pick it up c:
