Final Lost Tales episode done. I need some more tissues.
It wasn't bad, but I'd expected a little bit more from this one.
It's sadly not going to change my Top 3 of favourite Lost Tales, so my original list still stands:
1. A Friend Worth Dying For
2. One Really, Really Bad Day
3. The Daughters of Lalaia
Has anyone already played any Story Mode quests?
I haven't but I find the concept pretty interesting, because I'm sure there are people out there who could come up with some really interesting stories.

Tup Great Pictures - I am not really good with taking shots with my smartphone <.< GroundSquirrel Didn't play it yet. If I have time I'll start this week with it. And then the final chapter of Atlantis. Sadly no time to look at the Story Mode thingie, either.

ladyaly: I'm crap at taking pictures with my smartphone too. And compact camera's as well. I prefer something a bit heavier I guess.

Its sad to see in the end Herodotos go - but HEY - what adventures had they together  |

It was sad. And after all those adventures together surely a big hug would have been nice?
I guess that was the only thing I found disappointing about this Lost Tale.

Well - both aren't the hugging type I suppose |

My Kass is the 'selective hugging' type  She surely would have given Herodotos a hug though. Especially after all his help. It's funny... I always think of him and Barnabas as Kassandra's surrogate dads  One 'selective hug' that made me cry. I'll put it under spoiler tags just in case: Btw what is it with weapons going missing in certain cutscenes? At first I thought it was just in certain scenes, but I noticed that there were cutscenes in my first playthrough in which all weapons appeared, but in my current playthrough they're gone. No doubt something got messed up with the programming after an update... In other news: After 19 months my Mass Effect Wrex statue from Gamingheads has finally shipped, so I guess it will be here next week It always takes a long time between pre-ordering and shipping, but it's well worth the wait. I wish they had a license for Assassin's Creed Odyssey too, because I'm sure they'd make an awesome Kassandra statue. I did get Ubisoft's Kassandra statue somewhere when it was on sale, but the quality is nowhere near as good. Only the Femshep statue from Gamingheads left now. Unless they plan on releasing more of them.
EDIT:
Just found out that the Wrex statue weighs a whopping 21 kg without the packaging  Feeling a bit sorry for the courier now.

^^I wouldn't have room for something like that.  Even more nice photos It looks really peaceful. I suppose you still have multiple reasons to go back there some time Currently playing the last Lost Tales episode. Haven't made much progress with that one though. I guess I don't want it to be over heh. Oh yeah and certainly will go again. It's one of those places that's quite easy for Finns to visit. It's obviously quite different yet similar - compared to something like Northern-America there are much more potential culture shocks. For example no tipping in Japan which makes a HUGE difference actually in how things operate compared to, say Southern-Europe, i.e. feeling is similar to Finland in that respect. Quite frankly I hate ass licker waiters... You should do your job properly and get paid to do so (though, apparently things aren't that simple in NA for example). There's also similar feel of safety. Anyway, still have things I want to see. Bought few things from Steam sales - Tekken 7 (to be honest, I've been waiting this since I was single digit years old). Also grabbed CHAOS;CHILD - should be interesting (since I REALLY liked STEINS;GATE). Also on E3 new Tales of game was announced - Tales of Arise: Since they do not have to target Vita and some obsolete old consoles, this is going to be visually a massive upgrade over Tales of Berseria (which I quite enjoyed, being a story rich game). Looks like they overhauled the combat system too. I should also continue my AC playthrough....

Tup : looks like you won't be bored anytime soon. I hope you do finish AC though. Thankfully I don't have to worry about space. My PC room is quite roomy and there's space for a couple more at least. Since the statues are fairly big and heavy I don't have to worry about the cat knocking them down either, unlike the few Funko Pop figurines I have on my desk. He keeps knocking those down heh. Wrex is in Germany now, so I guess it will be delivered today or tomorrow at the latest  Tipping in NA is quite annoying. Always having to do the math before settling the bill. It's just so much easier if they included a service charge like they do over here.

GroundSquirrel WoW - thats a Biggie  Like Tup I wouldn't have the space for it. Enjoy it Tup Hehe - get game fodder for the wintertime already ? You should really not miss to finish AC - its a rich game with less flaws.

Even less flaws now, since another patch was released today. According to Ubisoft the patch size is 5.6GB, but it I just downloaded a 13.5GB update  |

The final part of The Fate of Atlantis DLC will be released next Tuesday (Tuesday, July 16). Will we finally see Atlantis? Supposedly there'd be two more Lost Tales too? And I figured they'd release those before the final Atlantis DLC part? Guess I was wrong... Maybe I should take a few days off, while I still can. Holiday season is starting at work soon. In case anyone missed my post in the Mass Effect forum, since I don't think it gets a lot of traffic these days: my Wrex statue arrived on Wednesday Posted a few pics of it there. |

Can't really find anything about the last one, but then I wonder why someone would list it as a Lost Tales episode on the Wiki page. Plus it'd kinda make sense that a character like Sokrates is featured in a Lost Tale. After all Barnabas, Alkibiades and Herodotos were all featured in one of them. |

I started playing the final part of the Fate of Atlantis DLC. It's another beautiful world again. Much more vibrant than the Underworld. There's not so much grinding for resources like leather and wood here. Instead there is a blacksmith who is selling plenty of resources, so if you have plenty of drachmae it's no trouble to upgrade your weapons and armor. I had a bit of a hard time finding the blacksmith though. So far I've mostly been exploring and trying to find some armor parts, but I did play a few of the quests. The ones I played put me in a few interesting dilemmas. I wonder if they'll have any impact on the rest of the story. Did I mention I hate those enemies that have special attacks which won't let you build up any adrenaline? I keep having to run away, hide for a bit until my health is restored and then go back again. One spoiler thingy about the start of this episode... Layla isn't giving me much hope. |
