OT: Video Game Thread Part VIII

Yeah he's one of the "free" promo cards. He's in almost every promo pack I've seen. I pulled Zakaria who looks somewhat useable. 99 passing is much more useful in the midfield than shooting. Tough links tho.

They're giving out tons of fodder packs if you grind objectives and upgrade sbcs.

I'm going for Gullit so most of my focus is going into that.

Do Balotelli if you have the facilities. Sneaky good. Huge with 99 dribbling.

He’s a free card??? Damn

So I wasted my 1 of 3 85+ pick on him guess

99 shooting? 99 passing? 99 dribbling? What the hell. It’s only December.

No he's not actually free lol. Just one of the common base promo cards they stuff in the rotation to make you feel special and actually have a chance at pulling VVD.

The CB they dropped today is 5'10 with 99 dribbling. Makes no sense. At least Balotelli's 99 stats make the card usable.

Grabbed Civ VI and Warhammer 40K Gladius from the Steam sale. I may pick up Northgard too, but that may be it this time around.

Woulda went Rapinoe personally.

Yeah she's stupid. Played some dude that her and R9. Abused my Gold Kounde.

I'm saving for Gullit. I've seen some gross pulls in that thing.

I need defensive help bad.

Forget that. Just win every game 8-7.

I don’t have the thumbs for that.

I’m the kind of underperforming my xG by at least 2 goals per game.

Almost done with baldurs gate 3 honor mode. Have a couple fights left but should be smooth sailing here on out. Super fun to run through again. Played dark urge which really feels like how the game should be played tbh, had a couple of hiccups along the road, and things got really hairy a couple times but I was able to pull through. Also got some new content done that I didn't do the first time in acts 2 and 3 which was fun too.

I grabbed AoE4, Valheim, Against the Storm and Solasta for rainy day stuff. I'm just content killing time in BG3 currently.

Also can't recommend Northgard enough, especially if you can find a poor soul to sucker into it with you.

Haven't stopped playing Against the Storm..since it was released on game pass..really great game

I caved and bought it yesterday. Played a bit before bed. It seems pretty fun, and the art style is amazing. My only qualm is that a lot of the clans are locked behind dlc. Are any of them worth picking up?

I'll have to check next time I'm in front of my pc which ones I have. I know they came out with a few newer ones I sisnt get, but I do remember buying a few.

I used ox A LOT, and horse often. My buddy loved playing Kraken and Snake.

Thanks. I'll have to play a bit more and see what appeals to me.

I have finished BG3 honor mode. Orin almost ended my run 70 hours into it. At one point I had 3 party members down and shadowheart up with 10 life left, and Orin with almost full hp. But I pulled it out.

Your grind team vs actual pay to win teams.

Nicely done.

I'd be a 16 win player if I wasn't the worst damn player inside the box. I win the xG usually 80% of the time. I do not win 80% of the time.

smh typical stat nerd. The game is played on the ice pitch, not a spreadsheet…

But yeah, the finishing in this game is so much worse than last game. A guy with 90+ finishing, standing in the box, will randomly just miss the entire net for absolutely no reason. It’s crazy.

Not only that. I have an uncanny ability to skill move directly into a perfect slide tackle and no pen (the worst PK user ever too). The amount of times I get tackled clear on goal is impressive as well.

Gotta love the 70 pace CB catching Mbappe

I don’t really skill move much. I feel like I cause more problems than I solve when I try them.
