It's 2025 and with that I will continue to work on my massive backlog of games I own, Last year I completed 29 games this year I aim to double that amount of games.

1: Castlevania: Legends - Completion time : 1h 33m

I'm gonna be honest, I still think this game is boring after playing though it.

I mean Cryptic also uses Medicine pouches and those go unused in the base game so maybe it was a joke? But there's also a Wine bottle pickup that has no effect in game in the final map "CP09: Castle" and it also goes unused in the original episodes

Manny Vargas @unitedvirusx.bsky.social · 2d

I did it again! I wonder if this is some sort of bug?

Manny Vargas @unitedvirusx.bsky.social · 2d

I'm honestly curious why its happening in blood since from all the sources I've looked up I'm over the normal level kill count

Manny Vargas @unitedvirusx.bsky.social · 2d

When you somehow get more kills then where intended in a level.

Wonder why in Cryptic Passage the Cloak of Shadows was placed in CP04 even though it has no effect in game, Like I get why it was used in E2M3 as a set piece to make it look like the player is being watched before exiting the level.

21: Cryptic Passage for Blood - Completion time : 2h 6m

I don't remember a lot from Cryptic Passage, It almost felt like it was my first time playing it TBH, That being said its not as good as the original 4 episodes of Blood although the last level is way better IMO.

New video!! Quake 4 is a horror game, but what kind of horror are we talking about? Psychological? Body horror? Or something more insidious? Come join me for the live premiere as I examine @ravensoftware.com's masterpiece, Quake 4!

20: Blood Fresh Supply - Completion time : 17h 12m

I love Blood! But I've never actually completed it on the "Well Done" difficulty till now, Its immensely harder then playing on the other difficulties, Now on to finishing both the expansion episodes Cryptic Passage & Post Mortem.

19: Battlefield 6 - Completion time : 5h 47m

Gameplay wise the campaign of BF6 was great, Story wise...... Its literally just a worse Modern Warfare 2.. overall it was fine but honestly all my time is gonna be spent in the multiplayer portion of the game.

Its getting close to the final stages! Just go to add more crows maybe some random feathers flying about and finally add more detail to the background.
