Started the first Eye of the Beholder (yes, all this time and I've never played it). On balance I like it, and am enjoying it - party is currently a human Paladin, half-elf Fighter/Thief and human Cleric and Mage in the back row. One thing that is annoying me are the secret walls/portals and lack …

Underrail Wow, this game is really exceptional. I didn't expect much from a single-character turn-based game, but I'm impressed. It's like sci-fi Eschalon: Book I , but with better quests and much more complex (in a good way) combat and character building. Or maybe like Fallout (1997), but with a …

I almost started a 2nd playthrough of System Shock Remastered. My first playthrough was prior to the last big patch, so I wanted to check it out. But at the last minute my brain decided on Doom 2016. It's probably a quick play and I can probably finish it in a few weeks if I try hard enough. I've …

Pool of Radiance Unfortunately, I decided to bow out of this one. By my count, I spent about 50 hours, but a lot of that time was spent reloading after tough battles. I got my characters to level 6 (fighter/thief was 5/6) and started exploring the wilderness. The "last straw" was the three phase …

I'm still inching my way through Pool of Radiance. My characters are all level 6 except my fighter/thief, who is 5/6. Currently in the Kobold Caves and have had a few goes at the big three wave combat in the Throne Room. I'm struggling, so instead, I decided to explore the rest of the caves and …

I just bought this games called "SKALD: Against the Black Priory", and it's awesome! It's a "retro-style party-based RPG set in a grim-dark fantasy world". It's actually a blend of styles, but it's a lot of fun to play. It feels like it would be right at home in a late 80's early 90's PC. If you're …

Ancient DOS Games Episode 339 - Stonekeep is online! I've actually been holding onto this one for awhile now... multiple years in fact... For some reason I just hadn't felt like getting around to it until now, as I kept covering other dungeon crawls and then would go do other games, and then oh hey …

Holy Moly! Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 came out and I was completely unaware until yesterday! KCD1 was one of my all-time favorite RPGs. It has instantly gone into my GOG wishlist and looking forward to any sort of discount (I almost never pay full price for any game). In the meantime, I'm going to …

I'm currently half-way Control (2019). To be honest I find it boring. Again, one of those games where you have to upgrade and craft mods to meet the required power levels to go on without too much hassle. If you die you have to redo parts that just take away time and make it more boring. Maps are …

I recently completed the Elderscrolls Arena on DOSBOX. Every single dungeon is a multi tier literal maze. Like most passages lead to dead ends with nothing of note or interest in them. Probably spent 2 hours on each one, and the main quest is just a gauntlet of 20 dungeons back-to-back with a …

Making good progress in Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn . As mentioned before, I'm really enjoying the party interactions in this game. For example, I liked how Keldorn was trying to mentor Anomen, while the young squire arrogantly rebuffed those attempts. But after passing the knighthood test, …

That Troll fight was a hard stop for me when I first played Pool of Radiance around 1998 or so. I got The Forgotten Realms Archive from the bargain bin, and that's as far as I made it. Was definitely a "This isn't Final Fantasy, bitch " kind of moment. When I played Pool of Radiance again maybe 5 …

Pool of Radiance Had some vacation time this week and got a little more playing time in. I completed Sokal Keep, including the massive encounter with 4 orc leaders, 15 hobgoblins and 31 orcs. It took a couple of tries to get the right combination of spells memorized. Basically, just cast sleep at …

Pool of Radiance I'm about 15 hours in now. My fighters are level 3, F/T is L2/3, Cleric is L4, and Mages are L3. I have cleared all of The Slums except for the Troll/Ogre battle. I must've attempted that battle at least a dozen times so far, including just now, where I got much closer but still …
