I don't want to sound condescending, but maybe if you want the site to return to life you should start posting?! One lonesome wall of text isn't gonna go a long way. Most of the topics here are pretty general so they're easy to join in to.

Of course I had to share it with the masses! I suspected you might die and the lads would have to know to replace you in the Coalition. I couldn't just leave them guessing.

I though as much, even I couldn't bear the length it would take. I nabbed all of the diamonds and then the audio diaries glitched on me so I abandoned finishing the SP as well.

Had the brother over today and we got in some Borderlands 2. It's taken us ages to get around to playing the bloody thing. I'm enjoying it but (and excuse me for blaspheming) maybe I'm a little underwhelmed? The new weapons are cool but it still feels a little too familiar. 

Well Ni No Kuni is starting to boil my piss. 

***Slight Gameplay Spoiler, not related to story (story is shite anyway)***

I know most games recycle enemies but re-skinning the bosses and having to fight them all over again after the main game is just bloody tedious. And most RPGs have a level cap on enemies and a bit of power-leveling on your part can be a real help. Not this though, you need your ass to be level 90+ to have a hope off completeing some of the last missions. It's a shame to see a game I enjoyed overstay it's welcome.

That crap aside, I started into the new Zombies DLC with the lads and that's been a proper laugh. One of the easier trophy sets it seems but coupled with one of the better maps. Physics are still ass though and some of the detection boxes for weapons and interaction points are just plain broken. Nathan got screwed at least twice because the prompt to press square just wouldn't come up when he needed it.

I'm still stuck into Ni No Kuni. I think I'm a good bit of the way through the main plot but I know there's a grind waiting for me at the finish line. I've been pretty diligent about clearing up all the familiars in areas as I go along and today I found one that gave me crazy XP when I killed it so I farmed that for a while and metamorph'd almost everything I had to at least the second tier. I have loads of familiars waiting to go up to tier 3 but I need jumbo drops for each of them so farming for bloody crystals at the moment.

Which brings me on to the utter bullshit that are “random drops”! There's a forage point that gives me one of four types of crystal (Star, Planet, Sun, Moon) and each is supposed to have a 25% chance of turning up. From what I can see, not a single shitting familiar in the game uses Planet drops to morph, so I have a 75% chance of getting something I need and a 25% chance of getting bollox. My last seven crystals have been planet… And it takes a poxing age to re-spawn!!!
