just a dude swimming in the canal with a bunch of swords on
Last night’s agenda was to finish up the low-ish level contracts in Velen and move on to Novigrod and also finish finding the rest of the Griffin stuff. 
So we met Triss Merigold, and we had an epic fight with a wyvern on the top of a tower, and such. But mostly we discovered the absolute worst place on the Continent for a summer home. There’s a fast travel point named Harpy Feeding Grounds that is, in fact, exactly what it says, and if you kill most of the harpies you get to slide down a cliff and find a level 14 basilisk, which it’s real difficult to run away from because, as we mentioned, cliff, and i was like whoever sold you this timeshare is a fucker and DF was like holy shit i know.
I’m writing this in two halves though so you gotta read some boring stuff first, and Novigrod and the wyvern is getting some later, but like, i gotta work on actual writing sometime today. it’s cool, i’ll be away this weekend so i’ll separate out the playthru diaries and queue ‘em up to keep us going.
anyhow. 
we started off with The Shrieker, which is a cockatrice. Cockatrices are draconids, so you need draconid oil, and otherwise similar tactics to the griffin at the end of the White Orchard level-- crossbow, Aard, hit while stunned, run the fuck away, repeat ad nauseam. Yes, Geralt’s higher level now, but so is the critter. 
At one point the Shrieker got Geralt down to 0 health, like there was absolutely no red left in the bar, and Geralt just ran, and with two different regen mechanisms going he managed to creep some red back into that bar. The thing about the cockatrice is that it’s really fast at following you even crawling on the ground-- a good dodge buys you fractions of seconds at best, and you just have to keep running and it’s exhausting. There isn’t time to cast any Signs, and so you have to choose between having time for Quen, to protect yourself, or Aard, to knock it down so you can attack it. DF kept choosing against Quen and then the thing got in a big hit on him and killed him, so we had to reload yet another time. 
The third attempt was just a grind. Tried samum bombs until we ran out, took Swallow (to heal) until we ran out, took Thunderbolt (strength booster) until we ran out, Shrieker’s at 15% health or so, Geralt’s at 15% health or so, the thing’s chasing us and we keep Aarding it and getting in one swipe and then having to run and the thing is just right behind us and it was just this panicked brutal slog and suddenly the weird “WHOOMPH” followed by the choral “AAAH” noise came up and the slogan on the screen was like “Quest Completed: Shrieker!”
“What the fuck,” DF said, and had to run back and try to find it. It had just-- expired, while we were running away. Bleeding, probably, but like. What the fuck.
We eagerly combed through the loot to look for the cockatrice heart, which we need to make Enhanced Beast Oil, which has been a running joke since we started, but alas. No heart. Lots of other parts, but no heart. (”Why does anyone play this game, if not for that?” MM had wondered, a little earlier, but by now she’d fallen asleep on the couch, so we had to break the news to her slightly later in the game when she woke up again.)
Sad and kind of high in toxicity, we wandered off to cash in the reward. It’s been so long since we took the quest that I had forgotten that the guy who gave us the quest was actually named Chet, like, what the fuck. Anyway, he was grateful, and was like “well we don’t have much money but,” and the dialogue option was like “thanks [take the cash]” or “save it for Some Character’s Name.” “Who?” DF said, squinting.
“Oh, the really unnerving-looking poppet who had to tell you all about how the critter disemboweled his dad right in front of him,” I said. 
“Ohhh yeahhhhhh,” DF said. “Shit. Goddamn. Fine.” He let the guy keep the money, and we went on our way. “Well, now for Jenny on the Block, who was a Wraith of some kind, so we gotta use Specter Oil...” 
To start off with, DF was being lazy about Quen, and had forgotten to move any food into the quick-provision slots. You cannot take things out of the food and drink inventory while in combat, so if it’s not in the quick-provision slots you don’t have access to it. 
So.... Sighhhhh after reloading after Jenny murdered Geralt, we got re-set to Crow’s Perch, and had to make our way back to the location. There’s a quick-travel point nearby, so DF just hit that, which brought us to the middle of, oh yeah, the place we liberated from bandits and the peasants moved back in and oh yeah that was the night we were pretty drunk and DF was Igni’ing beehives and took out someone’s grandma and an exploding barrel and then we got killed so it all reset. Riiiight.
“The beehives are still there,” I pointed out.
DF threw Igni at them, missed, hit an exploding barrel in the middle of a group of peasants, which blew up, knocked a bunch of them over, and that set the beehives on fire, so they dropped their honeycombs and we went and looted them. But, sober, DF was concerned enough to walk over and look at the downed peasants, some of whom were weeping. But they sat up. They’d just fainted, apparently.
“Okay,” he said, and left. 
Jenny from the Block was annoyingly capable of one-shot kills. But @akilah12902 came through with the suggestion of using a smaller dodge than the big rolling dodge that was the only move DF had really mastered thusfar, and that helped with staying inside the Yrden circle (it’s B on an Xbox 360, in combat context-- other contexts, B is Jump, but the menus change in combat mode) -- “That’s clutch,” DF said, and made Geralt shuffle-step all over the place like a demented chicken with a sword. (They worked hard on the animation; his hair flies around super-majestically but also humorously.)
At the end of the fight I was like “agh shit Quen please!” and he was like “THIS IS NO TIME FOR QUEN” and-- finally killed Jenny, so there was that. (He’s not wrong. I get twitchy and like defensive strategies. This is why I’m not playing this game, or any game, I am here for the color commentary and constantly texting for hints and also using Google a lot, thanks. I also hate surprises. No, I don’t tell DF everything, but I am prone to blurting things out like “ah check the west end” and “GET PAID UP FRONT FOR THIS ONE” and “those fuckers blow up when their health gets below 10%” and such. Mostly, it doesn’t annoy him. I know... )
When we got back to the village to cash in the contract for Jenny, we got our first look at Geralt’s Super Toxic face, after two back-to-back hard fights that he’d potioned up a lot for. In the cutscene, all the veins of his face were dark purple, he had shadows around his eyes, and his scars were all vivid purple against his extra-white skin. It was fucked-up. It probably didn’t actually affect the cutscene dialogue but the guy was like “Oh! Oh you-- yeah! Here! Here’s a pile of money! You’re sure that wraith is gone, eh?” Geralt was like (if I knew how to do that eldridtch dripping font effect I would) “YES. I’M A WITCHER. I KNOW WHAT I’M ABOUT. IT’S DEAD AS FUCK. FOR GOOD.” Peasant Guy was like “Ah um fantastic here is a pile of money please go!”
This time, Geralt had no compunction about taking the money and going.

Mom plays Wayhaven: Book 2 demo
Me: So which playthru are you using?
Her: I’m doing the love triangle. Most traumatic. If I don’t make someone cry, Hannah, I will be most disappointed.
Me: You could probably make Douglas cry. Poor boy’s suit is hopeless. 
Her: Who tf cares if I make Doug cry? That’s like taking candy from a baby. Making Mason cry--now *that* would be an achievement. 
She then plotted how to fake a death that would make Mason cry and arrive incognito at her own funeral. Why? For the evils. “Hannah, your impatience and your moral compass are what’s going to lead you to fail in life.”
--
Character Creation
“Apartment style...let’s do vintage. Nathan will like that ‘cause he’s old as fuck.”
“If I do not get to break Bobby’s heart in this book, I’ll be mad.”
“Charming. Because she’ll charm the hell out of Adam. And friendly, to annoy him.”
“Did she shoot Adam? Fuck. Yes. There is no reason not to shoot that motherfucker.”
“Who did she end up with on patrol? Nate did something dumb, so let’s go with Adam.”
“Yes, Angst Train, here I fucking come.”
--
“I consume darkness for breakfast.”
“‘Barely teammates?’ Fuck you, Mason. All you do is sulk and smoke.”
--
Me: I’m getting third-hand guilt from you.
Her: *eyeroll*
--
“These fans don’t know how lucky they are that Sera is a kind fucking god and doesn’t dwell.”
“What kind of vampire lets their one and only love through the oceans of time be kidnapped.”
“Hannah, you are under the false belief that I am emotionally deeper than a puddle. I am not.”
“This fucking car. She should sell this thing and buy a Dodge Challenger. Anything I got to shimmy open is junk.”
--
Her: I need some of that DMB shit.
Me: That’s illegal. 
Her: And?
--
“Bitch, pay attention! You’re gonna run down some little kid daydreaming about dumbass vampires.”
“Do I want to be Smol or Tol?”
“I bet Tina is boy-watching. Oh, fuck yes. That’s right, Tina, get you some!”
--
Me: Tina and Verda are the only ones you care about, aren’t they?
Her: Basically. Anyone else, if they die, they die. But hurt Tina or Verda and I will cut a bitch.
--
About the Captain
“Oh, man, even this dude can’t stand Douglas’ bullshit.”
“What the fuck the Agency talking to the Mayor for? Dude gets drunk all the time. He’s going to blab.”
“See?! the Captain is already suspicious! I told you, bad idea!”
“Go play golf. You didn’t even come in when there’s a fucking murder. I’m pretty sure there’s not going to be anything important enough to bother you with. Douglas will take a fucking message.”
--
Me: Tina wouldn’t let you get kidnapped.
Her: Hell no she wouldn’t.
--
“Calling it now. Douglas is a Thrall.”
“Who is this bitch? She’s sniffing me. WTF? OK SHE’S DOING SOMETHING WIERD!”
“I need to find out what’s going on with feather ears here.”
“Dude, when are we gonna stop being scared of the fucking pigeons.”
“So the Agency is shit at secrets and cripple your agents by not giving them the tools they need to succeed in the field.”
“When the fuck did the Agency do this, and how did they build an entire underground mansion without leaving a trace? And why no unicorns???”
“OK, we get it. Nate decorated this fucking place. I get it.”
“I don’t want these fuckers peeping in my house, I will take Adam’s eye out. I’ll take both of Mason’s eyes.”
“No, they’re not excited to see you again, you twit.”
“Nate, buy a clue and see that your BFF is into your girl. And stop listening for her heartbeat. That’s weird.”
“‘The Agency uses paper whenever possible--’ Yeah right. Adam, you do realize paper files can be stolen.”
“Oh, Nate is petting her. Y’know, if she didn’t get kidnapped the first time, she wouldn’t have PTSD.”
“Oh, Mason, you little dark cloud of pessimissm and shittiness.”
“Maybe give a little heads-up, Mom. ‘Oh, FYI, a flesh-eating goblin is after you.’“
--
“I am teaching Felix how to make a paper airplane.”
“Adam, stop telling me how strong my blood smells. That is weird.”
“Oh, Adam, you little racist fuck.”
“Of course you’re not scared of me Felix. That would be like me being scared of a fucking ham sandwhich.”
“When you’re so boring that MASON WOULD RATHER DO LAUNDRY THAN HANG OUT WITH YOU.”
“You know what? Felix and I see eye to eye. I won’t torment him. He can sit with Tina and Verda at the lunch table.”
“95% of the time Adam pretends the Detective isn’t there. The other 5% he’s thirstier than the Sahara.”
“I complicate things? Bitch, you complicate things all by your gd self.”
“OH, NATE, you stole my goddamn phone so you could return it to me. He’s so old, he probably wrote the trope.”
“Nate and the detective are such nerds.”
“Yes. Yes. The angst nourishes my soul. I am well-pleased by Adam’s pain.”

HAPPY NEW YEAR gaming update!
I hope 2017 brings you lots of joy this year, especially given what a rotter 2016 was! I’m afraid I’ve the updates go a bit (oops), so let’s get into this!
I’ve been enjoying FFXV, a little bit to my surprise! it’s definitely because it’s clearly a more Western-style game. this isn’t a revelatory observation, but it feels to me like a mix of FFXIV, Kingdom Hearts, and Dragon Age: Inquisition. not a bad thing at all, in my opinion! I’ve unfortunately had to put it down because the receiver for my surround sound system is being a butt, and plugging my PS4 directly into my TV makes for very disorienting viewing. it’ll be going to GeekSquad soon.
instead, I played Tyranny on PC - a game I’d been looking forward to since not long before its launch! I’m happy to say that it’s as good as it looked, and I was obsessed with it thru my entire first playthru! I’m on the second now - trying to make different decisions for a bit of achievement farming - and my only complaint is how little music there is. there are only about 4? maybe 5? songs in the game, and they get tired very fast. the game also feels too short (only about 30hrs) but I also acknowledge that those hours are VERY dense with content! I guess I’m spoiled by DA:I. :P
I recorded about ten OR MORE videos of Tyranny to finally getting going on my ‘tube channel...but thru the first recording of the character creation, I didn’t notice the mic wasn’t on. the second, I didn’t notice that I had the recording FPS and etc. on very low settings from when I was trying to livestream Portal for my dad. the THIRD recording was a success...until I played it back, after already recording that horde of videos, to discover that my voice is almost completely inaudible under the game’s audio. so that was 10 videos in the trash. le sob.
needing an RPG I’m less immediately familiar with, I started up another game that I bought on Steam’s winter sale - Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition! It’s fun, tho frustrating at times...getting around is slow, and - like Tyranny - little music to sample. some, I’m sure, enjoy that the game doesn’t hold your hand thru every quest progression, but I’m not that player. I want to make my way thru quests as quickly as possible, or at least give me SOME hint as to where to start and how to puzzle together what I need to do next.
Oh...Sir! is as hysterical as it seemed (I avoided LPs of it so that I could discover its brilliance for myself), but it’s not something I’m inclined to sit down with for long periods of time. the devs realize this, I think, with their “It Gets Boring After an Hour” achievement...
with my renewed passion for RPGs, I should try picking up Witcher 3 again... however, it’s been nearly a year and a half since I last played it, and I’ll be lucky if I can fumble thru remembering how to play and not get myself killed. there’s no way I’d start a new file, either: Steam tells me that I already sunk 90hrs into the damn thing.
seeing so much renewed love for Skyrim has, admittedly, brought back my interest in playing it as well...tho not the remastered. you gasp at me in confusion! think of it this way: I don’t want a second set of trophies on PS4 (or PC) when I have so many yet unlocked on PS3. 
(plus, I spent WAY too much on the Steam winter sale... don’t need to spend more...)
finally, I’m still whittling away at Fire Emblem Fates! I’m nearing the end of Revelation, and am unlocking the possibility of S rank with all characters! unfortunately, I didn’t trigger the action in Chapter 14 to get Benny and Charlotte, and I’m now heading into...21...BUT HEY! less support grinding for me to do!
the reason I’m grinding everyone to possible S rank is because viewing it, then restarting the game without saving, will still open up the cutscene in the Records Hall. (...okay, so I’m slightly a completionist with this.) THEN I need to figure out who I ACTUALLY want to pair everyone up with... and THEN the kids come along, and I have to support grind THEM... oi
