Ran into the first tough enemy/boss in the game. It is called the Chromatic Troubador and it hits like a truck. The first fight against it, my party of three (Gustave, Lune and Maelle) were wiped out rather quickly. The next few fights I tried to focus on keeping everyone's health up. Still my party kept getting wiped out. In the fight where I managed to defeat it, I did not focus on healing at all. This is because even with my characters at full health, not being able to dodge 1or 2 of its attacks still renders one of my characters dead. So, there's no point in healing. Plus, healing ends your turn, so you don't get to attack or do anything to help take the enemy down. So yeah, I stopped trying to heal my characters and instead just revived them when they went down using revive tints. I focused doing as much damage as I could using skills. It helps that in this last fight, I've gotten more familiar with the enemy's attack patterns and were able to dodge a majority of its attacks. So yeah, managed to take it down.
It's been awhile since I've written gamelogs on this blog. I've been too busy playing and just do not have enough time to blog. Still I wanted to put out an update, if only to prevent me from falling further behind on my backlog of gamelogs to post. I'm going to do it a bit differently this time. Instead of the usual one post per gamelog format, I'm going to bundle them together in this one big post. I'll add some quick links below so you can get to the game you're interested in.
But first, some random thoughts on videogames at the moment.
It feels pretty good to be an Xbox Gamepass subscriber right now. Not only did The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Remaster become available to play right after Bethesda shadow dropped the game, but Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was available on Gamepass one day after. I know everyone is talking about the Oblivion Remaster, but I will argue that Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the game to play.
Also Path of Exile 2 is a great game! I did not include gamelogs for it in this post, but will do so in my next post.
Also my brother let me borrow his unused Playstation 4. I finally got to play Gran Turismo 7 for the first time ever and oh man I've missed the feel of Gran Turismo games.
