Been a while, huh?

(Written on 28. 11. 2014)

So, it seems like I haven’t written anything for a while. I mean sure, just recently I posted a bunch of things, but they were written in september… So I decided to write something more. Like, I don’t really know what, but I did see a bunch of movies. Like the… Oh yes! The Judge with Robert Downey Jr. and what was the other one? …
O ja! The Interstellar. It was one of teh few sci-fy I can actually see. It was nice and I liked the whole idea of interconnected timelines. I love when timelines are connected or when there’s time travel to the past when it is actually relevant, like… I don’t know, for example how it was in HP 3 or even in X-men: Days of Future past. And then there is this one book where it really is interconnected like to the point that you have to directly interact with your past’s self. Okay, the english original is called Circle of Magic: Danger in the Palace. And this is book five out of six. I have them all and I’ve read them all, but this fifth one will always be my favourite.
And seriously, if you get your hand on it, read it. It’s worth it. I mean sure, it’s just this little book, but I like it.
As for the main reason that I haven’t been writing, well, I have a lot of schoolwork to do and I have been reading a lot of stories and also playing Grimrock. Yes, I know – shocker. But well, it’s like the best game invented! And I just can’t wait to get my hands on Grimrock 2. From what I’ve been told, it’s awesome!

I’ve also been writing stories. Lately, I’ve been a lot into fanfiction and been writing it a lot. Mainly Grimrock fanfiction, but I’m also a big fan of crossovers and so some of my Grimrock stories are crossed with for example Harry Potter or something. But it’s not just Grimrock I write, I also write HP crossovers. And lately, I’ve been thinking about writing an Avengers go into Grimrock story, but I have yet to figure out how to do it so that they end in there. I mean, I could just have Loki magick them there with a botched spellwork, but the thing is it would be a shame if Loki wasn’t there as well. And while a botched spellwork could do it, it’s not enough. So I will probably have to figure out something better.
Hopefully, my mind will supply me with something soon.
Because, recently, I figured how to make Grimrock portraits and therefore my custom characters with my own portraits and not with just what I download. So… I googled a lot and found a cute chibi avengers Picture so I disected it to the right sizes and created first and foremost Loki, then Tony, Hawkeye and Thor and as an afterthought a portrait of Hulk. Though I’m not playing with him just yet. So far, I’m playing with the other four. And more or less without cheating. The one thing I did though was to add some extra traits. Like headhunter for example and of course, thunderstruck.
Heh. Maybe I will go and listen to some AC/DC.
So bye.

Legend of Grimrock – The Missing Heir

HI,

It is already several days back, but I finished one of the mods for Legend of Grimrock I downloaded. This one was called The Missing Heir. I went with my team I played with before. And thank god I did. While I think it would be playable with a new team as well, it certanily made some things easier this way.

Like… The slug/naga/cyclops thingies. They were a pain in the ass. Mainly when I was battling against Master. The fucker was summoning a whole bunch of them and it just wouldn’t do. In the end I just went against only Master. No dodging and boxed by wall from all other sides. And that was the best way.

I admit I did need some help with some of the puzzles. But other than that, I have to say the mod is great and has unique story that calls for continuation.

The autor confirmed that they will make more mods. When? I don’t know, but from the message was clear they are planning it.

As for the mod, other than my ranting abotu Masters slugs… Story driven, though sometimes, when I was reading the dialogue, I did it while resting, as it was faster that way. I think it was appearing too slow. Other than that… I think there was no Dismanteler in the mod. That would be the only thing I didn’t like. Because, I just love that sword.

The most confusing part was probably the third/fourth floor. Had to ask for directions several times. And then in one of the Master’s chalenges, I thought I was trapped. Only, all I had to do was wait a little… So it went well.

If you’re a fan of Grimrock, go play this mod. You can get it from either steam or nexus. Though if you’re new to playing mods, I suggest you use already existing party to make it a bit easier for you. Though, it doesn’t make it easier by much. I had party level 13 and still, the slugs were hard.

See ya.

Legend of Grimrock – Remake

Hi,

I found a great Grimrock mod. It is actually the remake of the original game as a mod. And while ti might sound dull to you, it sounds great to me! Because, you cannot import characters into the original game. There, you always have to start from scratch. And I don’t like that. I like to play with my party and I like to continue play with it.

And this mod, while it is essentially the same as the original game, there is one big difference. And that is that it is a MOD! And it lets you import characters.

So I can play the original Grimrock with my already leveled up party! As well as my EPIC PARTY! Isn’t that great?!

And it is all thanks to someone nicknamed Komag.

Okay, that’s all. If you’re interested in this mod, I got it from nexusmods.

See ya.

My own Dungeon

Hia!

This time, it’s, surprisingly, another post about Legend of Grimrock. And what about? First, I was able to finally update the game to the 1.3.6 or something version. So! I now can play and create custom dungeons. Yay!

And, I already downloaded some. And, the next thing is, I’m working on one of my own. It’s not much when it comes to puzzle, but hey, I like the more straightforward ones. Also, the levels are fairly small, but still… I plan on having many of them. It would be interesting to create neverending dungeon. xD Oh well… We’ll see.

See ya.
