Not as difficult as I was expecting either. My character is a bit overpowered since my jaunt through the Chalice Dungeons.

I found a place or two to easily farm Blood Echoes so I could level up quickly for the Chalice Dungeons.

Any Warframe players? I'm thinking of switching from Destiny to this.

I'm about an hour into Far Cry 4 (completed the prologue/training mission).

Holy shit, this is riveting. Using bait to attract an animal, let the animal kill the bad guys, then I kill the animal and use its pelt to craft items? Incredible (though I did feel bad about killing that jaguar that was in the cage).

One question: As I run out of space in my items bag, I'm wondering if I need to hold on to cheap items that might have some narrative impact later. I'm thinking specifically about the kid's drawing and the business card I took from Pagan Min's house. Will I want to use these items later to drive the story in a certain direction, or can I just consider them useless and sell/discard them?

I'm not sure. I don't believe they are necessary, but you might want to google it to confirm.

Battlefront is the most fun I've had with a shooter. Love this game.

It really opens up once you get the jetpack. Your options for shooting vantage points get much better, plus you can escape firefights really quick.
Just wish there weren't so many 10 year olds running-and-gunning all over the place. Feels like half of the players are taking some sort of tactical approach and obeying the mission objectives, and the other half are just button mashing.

Depends on the game mode. Before I maxed out at rank 50 I played mostly droid run, and most of the people were playing the mission like they should. I've been playing supremacy a lot since then, and while it's loads of fun, there's definitely more people running around like chickens with their heads cut off.

Yea, I do a lot of Supremacy, Walker Assault, and Turning Point. Don't really care for the droid runs.

Also, I am terrible in anything that flies.

Reddit tells me these items are useless.

That is what I thought. Man, I loved cruising around in mini helicopter in that game.

I'm awesome at flying things. I've seen people camp the ships spawn points on walker assault though. Before you can take control of your ship, they're already locking on
