Wooooh!
Big massive Remnant battle!



I can't see what's going on but I'm in there swinging a sword!

They were popping up all over the place and I chased across the map this way and that... and kept arriving late after everyone had killed them.
But I got there in time for the last one.

*can't see what's going on either*

Looks like typical MMO stuff to me.

A big pile of chaos in the middle of the screen covered with loads of random effects flashing around all over the place making it impossible for anyone to work out what they or anyone else is actually doing, then eventually the boss buried under the pile of bodies keels over and the pile disintegrates into characters that wander off like nothing happened.

we're so lucky to have you to explain things to us Banj

I've now fought in three battles against "Remnants" and I still don't even know what they look like.
If they didn't have the big red icon and the cloud of carnage around them then I'd probably just wave at them as they walked by.

Borderlands this week on Epic. Grabbed it anyway but I'm not too big a fan of multiplayer shooter things. Still haven't bothered with Destiny 2.
Next week's freebie seems a bit more like my kind of thing if the leaks continue to be true.

And speaking of online multiplay things, in the mostly single player WatchDogs I've started to get other players trying to hack me in online contracts!
I found them and shot them in the face!

I'm running out of disc space. I'm gonna see if I can get my old desktop running again, and decide what I can store on that one instead of this one. But first I need to get some shelves to place all the techie stuff on and before I can finish my order on those I need to measure my stupid doors which seem to be different sizes every time I try. And also, get up the nerve to drill holes in my wall so I can get the aforementioned shelves in place.

It was quite satisfying as I was waiting for them at the top of a building while they got in a lift. Then once they'd got to my level they looked up from their phone and saw me pointing the gun at them. Goodbye. And leave me alone in future.


I now have an extra SSD just for games so that I don't run out of disk space. Although that 95GB GTA download is challenging that idea.
