Work work work... and some crazy film about ants!



Hello all,

Been pretty busy recently with work to create a proper post, however I have been playing a lot more of the witcher 3... between my bursts of rage, wonder and amazement at how beautiful the world is... I've managed to rack up several hours playtime.

In this time defeated many a monster and completed a ton of quests. What i really like about this game having not played its predecessors, is that its not just kill kill kill spell spell spell.. level up. Its a game that requires a player to think and solve and issue before fighting.

Having a thinking mans approach to the world of the witcher allows players to have the upper hand against the baddies that lurk in the world. Sure you can run in slashing away aimlessly but if you take the time to read up on your foe and find its weaknesses... By brewing the correct oil, potions applying the correct ruins... by doing this preparation fights can be a walk in the park... kind of well... may lead to less swearing and not spilling your juice everywhere.

Mixing a sense of adventure with an almost CSI like searching for clues to track down the next contract. Makes this game really enjoyable for me, just when I think i cant beat a aprt I go back trace my steps and then create a strategy to kill off whatever feindish beats/specter/evil creature I have come up against...

Haven't played much else really on this New Gen of console managed to fully completed (all trophies) on shadow of mordor another game I loved more so of its ties to the lotr universe but came to love its nemesis system. Have been in and out of the world of DBZ xenoverse, having finished the main story and now onto a new character its all about unlocking all the gear and trying to max out this fun... not fighting but fighting game.

Slightly off topic I managed to see Marvels Antman this evening and wow just as I was kinda loosing faith in the Marvel cinematic world (never had a strong motivation to go see avengers 2... so I'm waiting on the blue ray). Antman and Paul Rudd knock it out the park with silly yet strong scenes which make any marvel fan weak at the knees. Not to mention the frequent jests aimed at other films and returning characters (Howard stark has aged.....). Also its great to see Michael Douglas back on form as Hank Pym.

Trying not to spoil to much... BUT GO SEE THIS MOVIE!
