In DARK SOULS news, I ran another character ("Grunk") through the game. Pure Strength build, wielding a Zweihander +15 wearing Smough's kit. It looked amazing. I was able to take out all the DLC bosses too, contrast to my Dex/Uchi build that got stymied by Knight Artorius. I am just goofing in NG+ now. I'm kitted in full Black Knight regalia, barring my Chaos Man-Serpent Sword and Crystal Knight Shield. I'm juiced enough to beat the occasional invader too, which brings me a lot of satisfaction. Get fuuuuucked, raider!

I tried that rogue deckbuilder for iOS mentioned above, but the adware angle was bothering me, and when it finally showed me a PragerU ad, I deleted it. It does make me want to try SLAY THE SPIRE again, but I am not sure I can get over the clumsy art there.

I always played on xbox 360, i did some FAQs for Zen back in the day. I wonder if my scores are still up. I quit right about the time the Star Wars tables came out.

Default Personal Goal - 100m on every table=Doable?
I set myself a personal goal of getting over 100m on every table and I Finally Did It!. I am no Pinball Savant but I am decent. I am happy if I break top 200 overall on any table. So, breaking it down (I guess it is more of a how balanced is the scoring thread?) Wizard Reached = * Wizard Beaten = ** All Achievements Acquired = AAA

1. Pasha - (126m) Done, 100m would be top 920 ** AAA
2. Blade - (143m) Done, need to be in top 180. *
3. Excalibur - (119m) - Done, Top 200 Needed. AAA
4. Bio Lab - (130m) - Done. Top 750 score range. *
5. Rome - (219m) -Done. 100m would be top 450.
6. Wolverine - (235m) Done, Top 600 score needed. ** AAA
7. Spider-man - (2.61B) Done, Top 3800 score needed. (Note- 1 Billion puts you roughly in the top 100) ** AAA
8. Nightmare Mansion (422m) - Done, Top 315 needed. ** AAA
9. Earth Defense -(178m) Done, Top 760 needed. AAA
10. Secrets of the Deep - (267m) Done, Top 750 needed. AAA
11. Ironman - (127m) Done, Top 40 overall score. *
12. Buccaneer - (154m) Done, Top 30 score needed. ** AAA
13. Street Fighter II Turbo (144m) -Done. Top 275 score needed. AAA
14. Agents - (107m) Done, Top 129 Score needed. ** AAA
15. Speed Machine - (104m) Done, Top 70 score needed. ** AAA
16. Extreme - (102m) Done, Top 22 score needed and a desire to play this table. ** (Extreme has NO Wizard Mode) AAA
17. Rocky & Bullwinkle (157m) - Done, Top 110 score needed * AAA
18. Mars - (711m) Done, Top 3,200 score needed. ** AAA
19. Fantastic Four (2.3b) - Done, Top 1500 score needed. ** AAA
20. Captain America (306m) - Done, Top 570 score needed. ** AAA
21. Ms. Splosion Man (413m) - Done, Top 9000 needed ** AAA
22. Sorcerer's Lair (383m) Done, Too 3200 needed ** AAA
23. Paranormal (173m) Done, Top 410 needed AAA
24. Epic Quest (3.28b), Done, Top 4000 needed ** AAA
25. X-men (115m), Done, Top 2600 Needed A
26. Moon Knight (486m) Top 2000 Needed ** AAA
28. Ghost Rider (236m) Top 2000 Needed * AA
29. Thor (151m) Top 2000 Needed * AA
30. World War Hulk (392m) Top 190 Needed ** AAA
31. Infinity Gauntlet (137m) Top 120 Needed * AAA
32. Avengers (131m) Top 410 Needed
33. Fear Itself (154m) Top 700 Needed
34. Plants Vs. Zombies (544m) Top 4500 Needed ** AAA
35. Civil War (547m) Top ??? Needed

Hardest to reach 100m = Extreme (Followed closely by Speed Machine and Buccaneer, showing the score adjustments on these were a bit too tight)
Easiest - Spiderman

The only zen table I've gotten all the wizard stuff on is Theater of Magic, which is my favorite actual pinball table. I love the Zen pinball series though. I think y'all are here at it than me lol.

More State of Decay 2. I have 7 survivors and I was feeling good, then I got into a dispute with some arms dealers and they just fucking shot the shit out of my two PCs in like 10 seconds. RIP. Now you have 5 survivors and lost two key skillsets.

Still janky, still very good despite annoyances.

It's not as fun as Doom 2016, but when the combat fires on all cylinders, it's pretty awesome. It also should be classified as extreme cardio.

im going to keep going and hope it gets better, but im on the 4th level and im not enjoying it much. the combat arenas in this one feel like chaotic garbage. just damage coming from every direction and they they go on forever. this is in stark contrast to the combat arenas in doom 2016, which felt perfect on ultraviolence.

My sons and I tried out World War Z tonight. It was free on Epic for a few days. It's fun; basically 3rd person Left 4 Dead but it has the crazy hordes from the film, and they try to make zombie ladders as well.

Nothing earth shattering, just good zombie killing.

Once again, I'm playing Dragon Age: Origins. I remember it looking pretty awesome in 2010, but shows its age now. Maybe this time I'll finish it.

Nice! It is always interesting to me to see how much effort some people put into their homes or landscaping in Animal Crossing. I do a bit of that, but I tend to engage more with filling the museum.

I bought The Outer Wilds after hearing that it might suit my need for a chill explore/puzzle game. What no one mentioned is the physics based flight/landing sim it's built around. Fuck that. I'm no good at flying this stupid little ship and it's not fun. Absolute waste of my money, and I'm not happy.

Great game, though. You aren't wrong the mechanics of flying are tricky and require practice, wasn't my favorite part of the game.

One mission from getting gold in all Campaign missions in Gran Turismo Sport. My last one is 4 laps of the Nurb. Such a good game.
