Only a 1000? That's a lot of money! The most I ever had was 13000 after doing a few contracts in a row, but I bought the saddlebag cause I was sick of constantly being slowed down for carrying too much stuff. I spent the rest on gwent cards, a few formulae from a herbalist, and fixing my equipment. It's true that I never sell stuff, but you get so little (like, 20 crowns for a big sword) that it never seemed worthwhile.

OK well if you put 13'000 together it sounds like you're doing the right things with income but you're just spending too much. The only time in the game I can remember blowing anything over 10k was much later when investing in crafted witcher armour.

Does it matter how I write the truth?

Oh no, that was meant to be 1300...

Is it Dragon's Dogma or Darkest Dungeon that's similar to XCOM?

Must be darkest dungeon, Dragon's Dogma is real time combat.

Ah, turns out all I had to do was to change some foreign money at the bank. Got 650 crowns out of it. I had no idea I was carrying around that kind of money...

So yesterday's chess record was 9w 1d 3l. Today's is 3-0-0. Rating is 1338 with a win-loss of +94. Top 22% of the 10 million players on the site. I have achieved a consistency. I still have bad days and inexplicable losing streaks, but the long term trend is distinctly upward. Now I won't rest til I reach a 1400 rating.

But whatever, today I tried bullet chess. 1 minute to make all your moves. No tactics, you just have to be faster than your opponent. I'm fucking shit at it. My rating at this particular variant is 518 (better than 10% of players). I just can't play that quickly, which reveals my main problem in life. I'm too slow. Too slow. My 'she'll be right' attitude to everything will haunt me to the grave...

I don't like the flying random enemies in Skellige. They're a major nuisance.

Eventually, I'll get onto a new game, and I think Bloodborne will have to wait a little longer. Persona 5 looks good, but Yakuza 0 will probably be cheaper, so that will likely be the next one. Final Fantasy 15 also looks like something I might appreciate. After The Witcher 3, I won't wanna touch western RPGs with a 10 foot pole. I guess I'll be turning Japanese.

Don't be dumb. Play Bloodborne. It's the best game I've played this gen and, putting aside my nostalgia for the original, it's my favourite Dark Souls game. Persona 5 looks cool but there's a bunch of games you could play until it's $40 in a few months.

BuT it sounds so haaaaard ):

Anyway, you haven't played the original. Demon's Souls was seriously awesome. But hard. And kinda scary.

It's dumb as hell that they've never re-released it. Or MGS4 for that matter. Every MGS is available everywhere but 4 remains a PS3 exclusive.

MGS4 had the stupidest story ever. It wasn't even weird, just dumb. Ruined the whole game for me.

It's a good game otherwise though. The stealth mechanics were really satisfying once you got used to them. It's just, there's no mgs without the story and memorable boss encounters, and it really failed in those aspects. You're better off not having played it.

I have to play it though. Its story at the very least would be better than MGS5's, which plays like bad fan-fiction, albeit with some excellent set pieces. That game is the exception to what you just said - it's worth recommending for the gameplay alone. You might even enjoy the story in a so-fucking-dumb-it's-good way.
