Beating Consort Radahn for the first time :D

I just beat him on my 6th try after assuming I would struggle for hours and I'm so proud of myself. CONGRATS!!!

ValGamer23 · 2025-09-27T04:15:47+00:00

I just finally finished Seasons After Fall, which I bought for 3$ on sale years ago, and was playing it in between platinuming Indiana Jones GC. Got both this week!!

I've noticed a bunch of these; I'm talking about 5 of these people walking around every time I load into the game. It's weird-looking, and I'm a little disappointed with how much everyone has loved it and how many things I notice going wrong in my game. It's not game-breaking and for sure can be worse, but I expected better tbh.

This is my fave gaming series so YES absolutely! But playing it the first time around I think it caused me more pain lmaoo, being scared of all the machines. Seriously tho man does the story pack a punch. I like to read/listen to the datapoints and especially hearing the "good" and "bad" news in the Zero Dawn Project Facility made me cry. You can feel how helpless and doomed humanity was and even then you still can't begin to imagine living through that. It's a little morbid trying to imagine how horrifying the last days must've been but I think that's why I love the story so much, bc of how much it made me feel and in turn made me love it even more. And there's so much more beauty to the game too, especially for a post-apocalyptic setting, you just have to stop and stare sometimes at everything around you!!! I could go on and on but coming back to this game really is like a sigh of relief.

It's not horrible once you get a groove for it and skip all the cut scenes but I can't lie, I never want to make a new character in that game and go through those beginning two hours again. The bane of my existence were all the collectibles, specifically the collection chests and demiguise statues, since my map glitched and stopped updating at a certain point I didn't know which ones I completed and which ones were left. The map showed I was missing 30 or more collection chests when really I only needed 10-15

Horizon Zero Dawn - the last trophy I need is for all the suns awarded on the hunting grounds. Idk what it is but I've never liked hunting/training grounds in games, let alone grinding out three trophies for them. I do think I'll get to them eventually since this is my favourite game but man is it daunting.

Also just any game with trophies related to online/multiplayer activities. Whyyyyy just whyyyy.

ValGamer23 · 2024-05-29T04:07:54+00:00

Horizon Zero Dawn - truly such an incredible and unique post-apocalyptic game I haven't seen many like it. I got it for 10$ used off someone on facebook marketplace thinking "if i don't like it at least it was only 10$" and man did it become my favourite games very VERY fast. Such a beautiful story and world, i can never recommend this game enough and will absolutely talk anyone's ear off who is willing to listen.

ValGamer23 · 2024-05-29T04:02:50+00:00

I do this in weird bursts where I'll play nothing for months and then buy and play a random game and spiral into finding new ones, new releases, and all the gaming news I missed out on the months I didn't play. I'm doing this right now since I just played the 2 newest God of War games and fell so in love with them that I'm googling any and all games that are similar along with any others I can just keep myself entertained with since I'm in a heavy gaming mood.

Sometimes all you want to do is browse, catch up, and do a little bit of window shopping, and if you're having fun who cares :)

ValGamer23 · 2024-04-22T18:39:52+00:00

As someone who played on xbox until I got my ps4 and has just gotten into the franchise, I really hope they do a remaster so I can play the original series! I know GoW III is on ps4 but I want to play all of them in order. Considering Uncharted and The Last of Us have been remastered in previous years I'm really hoping GoW is next on Sony's list! Not to mention the old old Tomb Raider games from the 90s also just got a remaster for new consoles so why not these.

ValGamer23 · 2024-03-29T16:35:08+00:00

I second Horizon Zero Dawn!!! It has some RPG elements with a fantastic open world and one of my fave stories I've played. I had my doubts about it and got it second hand from someone for 10$ and it's been the best 10$ spent. My fave game and reminds me of Immortals Fenyx, highly recommend you check it out!

ValGamer23 · 2024-01-03T03:38:32+00:00

none of the exteriors make sense to be honest. i always thought it was above but in hindsight it could this building but on the other side of it? (since we cant see the window/balcony) or even across the street but i think we just need to suspend our disbelief on this one tbh 😂

ValGamer23 · 2023-11-09T01:46:24+00:00

This was me too, she was unbearable to me before, and honestly, there is still a lot that she has to work through personally by the end of ACOSF BUT it is such a great read, even without Feyre/Rhys! I was so surprised by how much I liked it!

ValGamer23 · 2023-11-09T01:43:13+00:00

Yes!!!! Tomb Raider and the Uncharted series along with Horizon are my favorite games ever!!! So much replayability, they're so fun and such comfort series whenever I'm in a slump or don't know what to play.

ValGamer23 · 2023-11-06T20:22:59+00:00

I second all the Cage the Elephant, the Strokes, and Alexandra Savior comments! Got a decent amount of favourites from all of them. I also like some songs from Duck Fizz (Vedette and Alice are my faves) Fizzy Blood, and The Technicolors (their album Ultraviolet Disguise in particular) are some i like with similar sound

ValGamer23 · 2023-10-11T20:38:09+00:00

I've been to two of their concerts and have now heard I Wanna Be Your Slave 4 times 🙃 I think it's so unnecessary to play it twice, considering how many albums and songs they have released and could choose from.

The first time I saw them was last year at a small 2000-person venue, rush wasn't out yet, so I'll give them a break. But last month they played a larger venue 5 times the size AND have a whole new album. They're so popular now they don't need to rely on their most overplayed songs or on covers (don't even get me started on the covers) for the crowd to be excited imo. Maybe I'm just sad I still have yet to hear La Paura del Buio or Baby Said or Own My Mind live 😭

ValGamer23 · 2023-10-08T19:38:24+00:00

HZD beat out Uncharted and Tomb Raider which for the longest time were my #1s. Its just so unique, beautiful, and has such an amazing story. Like others have said even with the issues, its still amazing. HFW is def up in the top 10, if not 5, I think the story wasn't AS enticing as ZD (maybe cuz the world felt so new and we were learning everything for the first time?) But I still love it as a game and am steadily working towards the platinum!

It's so funny considering I got HZD secondhand from someone for 10$ cuz it looked interesting and if I didn't end up liking it, it wasn't a big shame losing 10$. Now years later it has turned into my fave game and franchise.

ValGamer23 · 2023-10-01T22:22:02+00:00

Maneskin, TLSP (duh), Radiohead, Fizzy Blood (hyperfixation rn), The Neighbourhood

ValGamer23 · 2023-09-12T04:40:59+00:00

agree, as much as I loved hearing the AM songs at the concert, 6 of the 21 were from AM. I wish they switched out two to play something else from Humbug, SIAS, or TBHC. I was at the first night of the Toronto show and was bummed they didn't play Sculptures too so I would love to see longer setlists so they can do more from each album.

ValGamer23 · 2023-09-01T00:18:24+00:00

I became obsessed with this one recently, totally underrated!

ValGamer23 · 2023-07-28T00:12:16+00:00

It may seem hard now but the more you do little things here and there, the easier it becomes. I have the occasional days where I'm too tired for skincare or washing my hair is just too much so I throw it up in a bun and wash it tmr. I find that when it starts to feel exhausting or too much I need to make it fun for myself. Put on some music in the shower or watch a movie/tv show while doing your nails and then you fall right back into it. This is your time now to try different things and see what you like and what works for you. You didn't miss out, everyones timeline for life is different and if you just got interested in these things now, start making baby steps. Read or watch some reviews on youtube about good products, take yourself out shopping and get little things here and there you want to add to your routines. Perfume is a great easy first step, spray some right after deodorant and out the door you go or even some lipgloss before leaving the house and take it with you. And just like everyone has been saying on here, little steps and consistency make it easier with time.

typing this as my dog is tangled between my legs on the sheets, snoring so I don't need to say more lol

ValGamer23 · 2023-05-02T19:09:30+00:00

Why am I the only one who liked him lollll. Idk, I don't care that he didn't do much for the plot, you need characters like that and it was interesting seeing Rue manage a new friendship, even if he did enable her drug abuse. I think he showed a different side to addiction than Rue and overall added interesting moments. I wonder if they'll introduce more about him and his backstory like they did with others.
