Re: What Have You Been Playing... IN MARCH 2024?

Never heard of it, what kinda game is that?

    'dark souls -like' means an emphasis on melee combat where timing and strategy are important.  Here you play Pinocchio a sentient robot, battling evil sentient servant robots in a 19th century setting to discover what went wrong with the world.  Graphics and combat are satisfying and the story is interesting enough to prompt me to watch two movie productions and read the original Carlo Collodi stories!  It's 'free' on PC Gamepass now.

I used to get Dark Souls and Darksiders confused, thinking they were the same game.
I was playing:
Wizardry 6
Starcraft
Sid Meier's Civilization V
Magic the Gathering: Arena
I've been trying to gain a foothold in Wizardry VII but I keep seeing holes in my party.  I quit screwing around with a thief or a priest in the front row.  Also I reworked everybody for maximum Vitality. Finally, I recently scrapped the Ranger because he doesn't hit as often as the melee crew.  My current party is, in order:
  Ninja Samurai Valkyrie Priest Thief Mage, and with the Valkyrie and priest I take every spell in Magic to get SP huge for Heal Wounds.  I'm importing from Wizardry 6.  I've got a starting party of L6 creatures, snd I've found Bane's Diary, which can get me better than the basic Start.  However, I'm going to do it.  I'm going to solve Wizardry 6 again.  This can get me the really phenomenal starts in Wizardry 6 and also the equipment to go with it.
I'm stuck on the 10th Terran mission in Starcraft, but I'm finding resources to bypass it.  Playing Zerg Campaign and also have an alter ego that started over from scratch and is up to the 8th mission.  While 7 wasn't pretty, I swept the 6th mission with some new tricks.
I have 77 achievements in Civ V.
Wasn't able to settle on a good deck for March, but I've locked in "Torment," a Nazgul and Shore Up deck for April.  It helps to learn the deck, and that's my plan to stick to this one which looks like No Contest to reach Diamond.  After that the competition will make the waves choppy, but I have confidence I can reach Mythic this month.  I was working with a very delayed start last month, not really doing anything until the 10th at least.
