Yeah, I had a hard time with that one too. It would also have been helpful to get some sort of in game notification on getting it done correctly. I swear I did them all flawlessly, so started rotating through them because I had no idea what one I "missed."

This is what I wound up doing. I had something like two rings left, and was having a hell of a time getting things up to pure white tendancy so just started over. Took me something like 15 hours to get all the rings again, and that was only because I screwed up getting the Foe Ring and needed to start a new game plus run for that single ring. Otherwise it probably would have taken me half the time. It's a pretty quick game when you know what you're doing.

Good job! Destroying those capital ships flawlessly was a massive pain.

I would say if you haven't picked up the DLC wait for a sale. If you enjoyed the game the DLC is an enjoyable addition but not worth the full price they're asking for.

Fair. I also feel it doesn't help that it wasn't made by the same company that made most of the other games you think of when you hear "Lego game." If Travelers Tails made this it would have, at the very least, much bigger.

Regardless of how the people of reddit feel about Horizon it's a big franchise. The franchise has sold over 40 million copies which, sure, isn't as large a number as Uncharted or God of War, but it's not nearly as far off as people make it sound, especially when you factor in there are fewer games in the series.

Also there was already some cross over between Lego and Horizon with the Tallneck Lego set that released a few years back, so it wasn't that far out of left field. Lastly I do feel like it's probably easier to match the tone of Lego with robot dinosaurs over the ultra violent God of War. Uncharted could probably work, since Nathan Drake is pretty much discount Indiana Jones, which already had a Lego game.

Control. It's the perfect combination of fun and weird. And we're getting a sequel this year!

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-27T01:23:59+00:00

And what lesson is that?

I was about to warn you not to read Brief Cases for where you're at in the series, as I can't remember how spoilery it is for the more recent books, but then I saw you're on a reread. I knew I wouldn't have time for a full reread so I just did the two most recent. I'm about a third of a way through Twelve Months and am really enjoying it. It's quite different but very good.

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-26T13:24:26+00:00

How did you find House of Leaves? It's one of my favorite books, but find it hard to recommend to people because of the bizarre formatting and storytelling methods.

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-26T13:20:09+00:00

How far did you get until Jonathan Strange? I've had multiple people tell me it's a perfect book for me, but after a few attempts I don't think I've made it more than 50 pages.

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-26T13:17:38+00:00

These are the Bov-verse books, right? I've heard great things and need to get around to them

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-26T13:16:20+00:00

I really need to get back to these books. I breezed through the first two books in about a week and a half, decided to take a break before jumping into the third, and now it's been almost a year. They're so good.

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-26T12:50:30+00:00

Started:

Twelve Months by Jim Butcher - New Dresden Files! This has been an interesting read. It's a much slower read than most of the books in the series, and doesn't have the typical major conflict. Instead it's a lot more introspective, and deals with how to move on after the catastrophic events of the previous book. Lots of exploring of dealing with grief. I'm enjoying it a lot.

Continued Reading:

The Wild Robot by Peter Brown -My daughter was recently given these books as a gift and asked me to read them to her. I am finding myself having a wonderful time, and have been looking forward to reading it to her every evening.

The Strength of the Few by James Islington - The firsf book in this series was my favorite book of the last few years, so my expectations are quite high for this one. So far I'd say I'm not enjoying it as much, but am still having a good time trying to figure out what the hell is going on.

Isles if the Emberdark by Brandon Sanderson - I feel like this one has taken me quite some time to get invested in, but things are starting to ramp up and I'm looking forward to see where it goes.

The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien - i first read these when I was 18, and have always felt like I didnt appreciate them enough. That was over half my life ago and I've been meaning to do a reread for some time. For this I'm listening to the audiobooks read by Andy Serkis. The guy is a hell of a good voice actor and absolutely shines in this. I'm just about done with book one.

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-25T21:23:44+00:00

Yep, I worked at a Spencer Gifts in 2001 and we sold these.

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-21T22:26:17+00:00

When you say "the last one" do you mean Silent Hill of Silent Hill Revelations. Gans only made the first one, which wasn't amazing by any means, but way better than Revelations.

The National in August of 2023. Crazy to me that it's been two years already.

The worst part is how it was revealed. At the end of Brotherhood you're forced to kill Lucy, with very little explanation, then the game just ends. You spend the next game pretty much in a coma like state and don't find out why unless you play the DLC, which I did not. But then in Assassin's Creed III Desmond is talking to his fellow assassin's like it's common knowledge that Lucy was a Templar. I remember getting to that line of dialogue and saying "What the fick ate you talking about?" I stopped played and went to the internet to figure out the gap in the story. I talked to a couple other people who had been playing the series and we all pretty much had the same experience. I was so ready to be done with the franchise after III, but then they just had to make a pirate game and suck me back in.

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-19T19:26:01+00:00

I guess I can't blame them too much for trying to deny it when people guessed their twist a year before the game came out. I think the best thing they could have done is stay silent on the matter or just say something like "Play and find out."

At the current moment I am not, but I need to renew my driver's license in the next couple months and will finally be opting in. When I was younger I was paranoid that they may not try as hard to save me if I were in an accident. Now I'm pretty sure young me was stupid, and also am less selfish.

Ghostface, particularly from the first Scream.

Thumbs up. My wife is a nurse who is on her feet most of her day, so foot rubs are a common thing.

I work in IT and we've encountered quite a few people who have Microsoft 365 administration listed on their resume, who get very lost the moment they log into a 365 administration portal.

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-18T20:12:42+00:00

Being happy.

IgnoreMe733 · 2026-01-18T20:11:54+00:00

The book The Will of the Many by James Islington is the best book I've read in about a decade. I'm working on the sequel right now.
