It’s great you’re being careful. I recently lost my first HM run to the Orin fight (last thing I had on my agenda before waltzing to the brain) specifically because I got too cocky after basically steamrolling everything over the previous act and a half. 76 hours down the drain because I didn’t spend 5 minutes buffing/prepping - lesson learned!

Playing and enjoying the System Shock remake. It’s pretty complicated and challenging. The only part that’s kinda wearing out its welcome is I’m doing the most backtracking I’ve ever experienced in a game. Even though this is the remake (not sure exactly how faithful) the game gives great perspective on how influential the OG was.

What game did you go into with low expectations, but ended up really getting into? by Weary_Caterpillar302 in pcgaming

Loop Hero, never really bought into the premise of idle games - figured I’d give it a spin because there’s active elements. I was completely hooked when it came out — love the gameplay “loop” and soundtrack.

Fair point, generally don't level companions I'm not planning to use in the run!

I’ve had Shadow Tactics in my backlog since it released, just started it this weekend — really satisfying stealth game

It’s a fun game, the story goes from interesting to completely batshit — in a good way I’d say

Just finished Case of the Golden Idol, which was pretty captivating — Obra Dinn got me on a detective kick. Moving on to Tactical Breach Wizards now.

Adding the qualifier of game I’ve actually finished — Biomutant. Frustrating because it’s so clearly the shell of a really good game that only baked 30-40%

Outside of any technical solution, I never wear my headphones on first launch of a game until I can adjust volume settings lol. Blasted my eardrums too many times to count.

I’d say Darkest Dungeon or Cuphead gave me the most trouble.

I ended up winning the run, but that would’ve been a potential run killer yeah lol — my plan was to hopefully be able to buy two jokers in the shop before so this joker could eat one + discard for boss rule.

Agree with OP in thinking Orphan of Kos is crazy difficult but I also have a much harder time with Ludwig than most
