Oh I know, recall reading somewhere, sometime she gets them - this is the origin story, of her turning into the kick-ass laura croft.Keep playing, then you will see the dual guns
Like I said, this game has been a lot of fun and it just keeps on going - quite a far cry to newer games that are smaller and then expect you to buy more content.
I picked up 'Vampire the Masquerade: Coteries of New York' on the Switch and that is pretty fun so far. Also playing the new Neverwinter Nights DLC on Mac and replaying Star Wars Jedi Knight (Dark Forces 2) on the PC.
Holy Crap, somehow I missed this! I’m a huge Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines Fan.
I located this new title 'Vampire the Masquerade: Coteries of New York’ (Dec 2019) on Steam. It‘s a visual novel, which is being critiqued for several issues, primarily lack of RPG character development, and where the choices you do have are meaningless to the end result. That’s what happens in visual novels sometimes. That said, it’s praised for its atmosphere, music, and a chance to revisit the VTM ecosystem. That may be enough for me and note there is a Bloodline 2 game in development. I started a thread about it, and it just laid there.
I played that one titled Tomb Raider, which was good, C-130 crash? But I did not quite get to the end. I’ve also got Shadow of the Tomb Raider (2017?), which I bought on sale, but have yet to play.
Nope, this was an origin story where she gets ship wracked on an island in the devil's triangle that is seemingly supernaturally controlled and she battles a cult who's trying to ressurrect the dead queen who's controling the weather.
I have that my MS game pass, I started it a while ago and it didn't grip me, maybe I'll circle back on that now that I thouraghly enjoyed this game.
Yeah that‘s the one, and I remember when she’s on the ground running from a plane crash at one point, yes?
Yep, one of the rescue attempts which failed because of the weather rose up and caused the plane to crash.
Overall it was a fun game and since it was on steam for free a couple of weeks ago, it was well worth the price

Yeah, it is definitely not like Bloodlines (or even Redemption) ... I will have to check out the thread, Bloodlines is an all-time fave of mine (as is everything by Troika), and I pre-ordered Bloodlines 2.
I re-started Rise of the Tomb Raider, given how much fun I had with the older game. The skills I picked up playing the first game is helping me with this one. Given that my wife is using my new monitor and I'm on an old one, I have no way to hook up this monitor to my EGPU.
My point is that this game is pushing my laptop hard. I'm easily getting 60FPS thanks to my Razer Blade Advanced with a RTX 2070, but the temps are on the high side and the fans are blasting. I like my EGPU because it offloads a lot of the heavy lifting to a desktop class GPU. Oh well.

It’s too bad Troika is kaput. For myself there is a question of how true to the original will Bloodlines 2 be. There is something magic atmospherically/musically about the original. I’ll wait for some reviews after it lands. I have played through the original game 3 times.
since we are all quarantined, thinking about pulling up the old school runescape and giving it another go.
I haven't played it since January, so I wouldn't call it a habit. How do I find what level I'm at?Is this a habit? What level are you playing at?
Based on whatever ships you’ve earned was the gage I was using. I’ve got one L9 ship I’ve earned through XP (USS Iowa) and one through coal accumulation. (Jean Bart). I do all Random Battles and even now can only take WOWS on a limited basis, faced with really inept players, and unorganized teams on a periodic basis.
I see. Here is my tech tree.Based on whatever ships you’ve earned was the gage I was using. I’ve got one L9 ship I’ve earned through XP (USS Iowa) and one through coal accumulation. (Jean Bart).

I see you like cruisers. When I first started I was playing all three classes of ships, but later settled on battleships. However now that I’m up close to L10. I see that cruisers at that level are killers. and the freaking destroyers can shoot like 10- 20 torpedoes. that is completely ridiculous for the sake of game balancing, IMO.
I do have the most fun with CLs. I think they have the best balance between speed, weaponry, and armor. That allows me to get into the fight more and quicker compared to the BB's, and I can survive longer than the DDs. The only ones I've not tried yet and that I'm in no hurry for are the CVs.
I did buy the CA Dallas just now. Shiny.
Nice... CV, me neither. They were experimenting with subs, but not sure where they are with that. I don't think subs would work, just because the the game is too dynamic and leave the subs behind, unless they started them in the center, but it would change game dynamics drastically imo. How can you do anti-sub work, when you are in the middle of a full fledged surface battle?
I remember seeing some news about subs being introduced last year, but nothing lately. I'd love to see them in the game for sure. Game dynamics are a concern for sure, but I bet it could all be worked out.
