Shadow of Mordor

 Yeah, yeah, this was really popular at one point and is not quite an indie game. To me though it is an oddball, as well as the sequel Shadow of War. My reasons why: just that mostly only Lord of the Rings fans will have played or know of these games. I do have a basic beginner tips article here if you want more but I will definitely do some deep diving here in later posts.

Bastion Part 4 & Final

 This will be the last I speak of Bastion besides a proper introduction later. This is about the 10 best gear in the game. Still no armor or special weapons to speak of besides the Battering Ram that only appears in the final level. I go from best to worst in this article but I am sure others have a different perspective.

Bastion Part 3

 Here's where people get picky. Loadouts is a broad term that is used for certain arrays of weapons/armor/supplies/etc. Bastion is a bit different than most here are it doesn't do loadouts like most would expect. It's just weapon combos, spirits that can help, and upgrades on weapons to do different things. I go into detail about it here

Bastion Part 2

 Going into part 2 of this short series involving the wondrous game Bastion by Supergiant Games I talk a bit about weapon combos. Now most games all have preferred weapons or weapon combos but in a way this game is unique. All you can choose are your weapons, Spirits, andthat's pretty much it. No skins, armor, or stuff like that to worry about. It's pretty straightforward. My favorite combos currently are: Cael Hammer & Bullhead Shield, Dueling Pistols & Brusher’s Pike, War Machete & Dueling Pistols, Breaker’s Bow & Flame Bellows, and Cael Hammer & Galleon Mortar. More details can be found here

Bastion Part 1

 OK, this will be a short series of blog posts starting out as I gain steam with my niche and odd games t write about. From the title we are going to talk about Bastion this go round.  First, it's all about best weapons. I detail more in this article. Yeah hyperlinks may not be the best but it does get the point across. I talk about the Cael Hammer, Bullhead Shield, Fang Repeater, Dueling Pistols, and Flame Bellows. I love all of them but gained new appreciation for these when I recently started playing again.
