DELTREE'S PROFILE

Today, I completely-by-accident stumbled onto a bug that required the following steps to trigger: use an ability with each character, open a specific chest, then challenge a specific NPC to a game of cards, and it would cause the game to freeze. I could repeat it, but leaving out any of the steps wouldn't trigger the behavior. By some miracle (and copious debug statements), I figured out a variable was being Rube Goldberged into a wrong value, so I managed to implement a fix after tussling with it for a couple hours.

So, what I'm thinking about is: I sure wish they sold alcohol on Sundays here.

I played Child of Light when it came out, and really didn't like the feel of manufactured whimsy. I did like the battle system, though, but it kind of fell apart toward the end (about when ogre-guy joined). I think it would have benefited from allowing three party members out at once and specializing their roles a bit, then raised the stakes by having more foes on the field in lieu of punishing the player for playing correctly (such as enemies countering after being interrupted).

Right now, I'm playing through Tales from the Borderlands, which I got from this week's TellTale humble bundle. It's barely an adventure game at all (way, way less interaction than even their Walking Dead titles), but I am enjoying the story and characters a great deal. I'll probably finish it this weekend, then play the Game of Thrones one next.

I've already played the rest of the games in the bundle, so if anyone is interested in any of them (Back to the Future, Sam and Max, Walking Dead Seasons 1 and 2, Poker Night 1 and 2, A Wolf Among Us), shoot me a message and I'll give you a Steam key!

nooooooooo

I don't play games any more, except for a very few tentpole franchises to which I am loyal (Uncharted, Persona). I am John Q. Consumer.

Close! Chameleon robe. I am so over this game.
