Year of the Backlog

I prayed to the dark gods of backloggery, and they sent me a grim omen that simply said "Yo, play some Shadowrun". Oh god, this is the worst one of these I have done So yeah, I'mma get my RPG on. Probably will be a real hot shot rigger again, much like I played in the first couple of these. Can't get enough of that rigg. Gotta rig it up. Gonna hit the rig time. As always, I will at least stream some  of my progress on the 'ol Twitch page. Trying to be a bit better about capturing all my gameplay, but if I'm not having fun, I feel like it doesn't make for good watchin'.

I really enjoyed my time with this game. Pictured: Pipe Wife. I met her in prison. The combat in this game just felt good.  Just enough auto aim to make me feel like a badass, not so much that I didn't have to be paying attention to succeed. I played through this thing on... Uh. Hard? The second highest difficulty that had some goofy name. It felt like a good balance, enemies went down pretty easy, but so did the protagonist. It was a pretty straightforward action game, moving from place to place, shooting new and varied fellows. The only real bummer was the severe difficulty spike with the final boss. I won't spoil that (if you really want to see, check out the stream), but it was so difficulty that I had to turn down the difficulty to "medium". I had to turn in my gamercard. It was a whole thing. Anyway, it was fun. It's nice to play a straightforward fun game every once in a while throughout this process.

I am so excited. A game where I get to run around and shoot nazis? Sign me up. I get to hit that bad guy with a pipe? Sweet. As always, I will be doing periodic streams of this game on Twitch. In fact, I have a VOD of it over there  Right NOW . Wowee! This one is a lot of fun, and I anticipate playing it in full on stream, so if you have any interest, be sure to look into that.
