In the spirit of the anniversary remembrances, the ninth instalment of Journey Through Middle Earth contains views from some of the older areas. Future posts will concentrate on Rohan since I have managed to delete my older screenshots and it is not possible to produce high fidelity ones with Surface 3. [THE LORD OF THE RINGS…

Game of the Year: Destiny
Destiny has been around a while but it was still my most played game of the year. It received negative of critique but has improved significantly over the years. I do not have too much time to play games and Destiny is enjoyable as bite-sized chunks: a couple of crucible matches, a strike, a mission, or…
Runner Up of the Year: Elite Dangerous
I first tried Elite Dangerous when it was still in the game preview on Xbox One. I did a bit of exploring and tried combat missions and hauling but did not find it interesting enough to continue. Recently I got back to the game and even bought the Horizons expansion. I have not played a space sim since Independence…
Disappointment of the Year: Tom Clancy’s The Division
I was looking forward to Tom Clancy’s The Division, and the game felt good at first. Unfortunately, the gameplay soon became tedious with bullet sponge and a significant amount of grind required to play effectively, so I quit playing after finishing all the story missions. I returned to the game briefly to check the DLC, and…
Find of the Year: Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition
Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition was already released for Xbox One last year. I had not played Divinity series before and dismissed the game as an another Diablo clone. The game was on sale before Christmas, and my brother recommended it, so I decided to give it at try. The setting of the game is…
Journey Through Middle Earth VIII: War in Rohan
The power supply unit of my desktop PC broke down earlier this year and, instead of going through the trouble of installing a new one, I decided to switch entirely to my Surface 3 tablet. It cannot run LotRO well, and I am currently unable to take any fancy screenshots. Fortunately, I managed to finish Rohan…

You Will Be In Horizon
I was going to get the Forza Motorsport 6 when it was released last year. I was especially looking for the simulated puddles and based on the demo the rain effects were well implemented. However, only grinding the tracks did not feel that interesting and I ended up getting Forza Horizon 2 instead. Cruising around…
Destiny Screenshots II
One more post of Destiny screenshots. I took them back in the last year, but I have not been productive enough to put them out earlier. The Division is coming next week and I have lost interest in Destiny for the time being, so it is good to get them of the backlog. I am also planning…
LotRO on Surface 3 Round 2
After the mixed results of my first experiment in running Lord of the Rings Online on Surface 3, I decided to give another try. This time, I installed the game on a memory card and used a wireless Bluetooth mouse instead of a wired laser mouse. I used recommended settings for my system (Very Low)….
