Someone wants Indy to go to an excavation site to find some guy.
Unfortunately Indy already stumbled onto this site the other day after getting lost while photographing cats and he killed everyone there using a large cleaning brush, another guitar, a frying pan and a ... thing. (I don't know what that thing was but you could hit fascists in the face with it. )

Hopefully the important person will respawn when Indy returns.

I've already almost forgotten about the star wars games sale. Steam also has Shadow of Mordor on sale. Never played it, never heard of it before. Is it any good?

I went on steam to try to find the free demo of The Merry Fairy which is apparently a game in development by someone living near here (we have a local event this weekend where a lot of artists and artisans open their studios for visitors so I've been looking at where I want to go).

I have Shadow Of Mordor and it is pretty good.
It's fighty in an Arkham way, where you take on lots and lots of baddies at the same time, but also has some sneaky bits like Assassin's Creed. It also has the "Nemesis" system which most of the internet believes is the best thing ever but I got a bit tired of it after the first few times.

I haven't played it, but Shadow of Mordor was given away on Steam at some point because it's in my library 

I haven't played Arkham and have no idea what the nemesis system is....

I've played all the Arkham games. I don't know what the Nemesis system is 

You don't find the Nemesis system in any other game cos they patented it, although they could use it in an Arkham game too cos they're made by the same publisher.

Whenever you get killed the named baddie that beat you gets promoted and levels up and they then tend to follow you a bit and turn up at your later fights to get involved and mock you. It is fun and unique the first few times it happens but the whole "promotion" animation got a little tedious for me.

*pictures whole crowds of named baddies mocking me while I lose yet another fight*

Even though you are often fighting crowds of baddies you only seem to have one Nemesis at a time (although all the "captains" give you some backchat during battles) but the whole point of it is that it is satisfying when you eventually kill them.
I've just looked through my screenshots and found this story in three parts.
