Apparently there are two games based off the band Journey.

Been to HG101 lately?

I've only played the Atari game. It's interesting...

Yeah, it's in my daily link fest. I pulled up the arcade game on youtube; it's a pretty shitty game with decent 8-bit covers of the music.

That is at least four games too few.

Multiplayer I was friendlier, so I played a Nature/Storm mage hybrid who healed everybody and mostly relied on a horde of pets for protection. That meant our group of six or so adventurers was actually a group of 11, all raring to go.

You need to play occultist then if you liked playing a storm mage.

And Noise the only reason I said we should play it is because you could have used my wife's copy.

ah right right. Then after I started reading about it I figured it was something I might keep installed as updates rolled out.

Nah, I admit that I chose storm mage as my combo more for the few defenses, the stat increases, and the Wisp. That build was purely about healing and pets for me.

After spending a lot of time looking over the various classes, I'm thinking I'll go for Nightblade/Soldier in our Grim Dawn playthrough. We won't get high enough levelwise to do what I want, but there are some nasty tricks later on that I'd like to try out.

Sweet Grim Dawn talk again. I have it on my PC, but I think I will keep waiting til it is finished to dive in. Looks like it has tons of potential though.

I have logged probably 30 hours into it across three characters, and only had a handful of issues. Most of which were in the Act1 build. We played a couple hours last night and only had one bad crash, and a few odd issues (at one point I had a bunch of invisible sliths chasing me - but that may be because we were spread so thin on the map).

It does alot of things well for an ARPG. Grenado is a perfect example.

[Ack]

Yeah, there were a few issues, like Shadow Strike flubbing on inclines and body parts disappearing when we equipped armor. And one of my abilities considered Xen an enemy for some reason. That was a little odd.
