Just think about the amount of loot they can carry afterwards too :'D

I've started specializing their loot carrying- Boone takes the weapons I want to keep but are too specialized (Scoped Hunting Rifle is my jam), Veronica and Cass carry sellable loot, ED-E and Rex get crafting materials, and the remainder get piled with whatever Veronica and Cass can't haul.

[Rhynerd]

I wonder if the glitch where ED-E can equip the alien blaster is a thing on PC...

I'm now very close to maxing out achievements on Year Walk! I have one more left; do a full playthrough on New Year's Eve... I'll have to wait about a year for that one.

I admire your dedication but can't you just set your computer clock to New Year's Eve?
Might save you some waiting 

The only games I've actually strived to get 100% achievements on are the 3 dark souls games on pc.

I certainly could do that, but I'm more focused on doing them properly than getting them fast. It's not the full experience otherwise. The story of the game is actually set on New Year's Eve - a character mentions that it's "the last day of this year" and then you go on your Year Walk that night - so it's more authentic.

I don't mind waiting!

I imagine 100% achievements on dark souls would be difficult, to say the least. How long did that take you?

It's more time consuming than difficult. The achievements are pretty simple like collecting all spells, special weapons/armor, rings(ds3 had 107, needing to go ng++ for) and such, nothing that requires any luck but you do need to beat the games 2-3 times though to get all endings and items.
Playtime (including dlc's that's not needed for achievements) is from game 1-3: 150h, 210h, 200h  :'D

Better than me on SpaceChem, where I currently have a playtime of 291h and still not even close to completing the custom levels.

Ahem, well you haven't seen my hours in Team Fortress 2

I am so hyped about that! The original game was one of my favorite things to come out in 2015 and it shows. I even still have the new message-sound from the game on my phone as a notification sound. I think Before The Storm will have a somewhat different mood, as Max is a hipster and Chloe more of a punk, but I have no doubts that it will still be amazing. Also, seems like better animations! Awesome!

I just saw the trailer yesterday and I'm hype!!! It certainly seems like it'll have a different mood from the original game, but I can't wait, it looks awesome! Here's an article with some more information than just the trailer.

Spoiler: show

However, I noticed a discrepancy in the trailer: it shows Chloe in the car with her dad reaching out for him before it crashes, but she wasn't in the car, as we saw in episode 3 (I think?) when Max goes back through the photo. She was in the house waiting for him to come home. That seems like a kinda major continuity error if you ask me...

110% disappointed it isn't called "Life is Stranger"

In all seriousness though, it looks interesting.

The reason number I-don't-hella-even-know why I love Life is Strange : music.

Played and finished recently:

Night in the Woods > [completed both storylines] looks like a kinda goofy game with anthropomorphic animals, kinda trashy humor, mostly about very millenial problems by day; by night however, the game takes on a quite different atmosphere and orientation; some specific aspects of the characters' stories resonated with me more than I expected.

Year Walk > [got the standard and alternative endings] Myst but horror; interesting; the puzzles weren't very intuitive at the beginning, I think I solved one or two by accident, but eventually I got into the logic of the game. Good atmosphere, but didn't really touch me emotionally.

I finally got around to downloading Darkest Dungeon over the weekend. It is deeply, deeply addictive
