This morning, we got my 12th platinum by successfully doing everything in RiME!
My concern about looking up YouTube walkthroughs turned out to be legit as once I looked up one video, I essentially just played around with the video as I watched it.
Huge thanks to YouTubers Sylvain LUCE and PS4Trophies for their most excellent videos.
Thanks to Sylvain LUCE’s above video for Chapter 2.
Without this video, I never would have gotten through to the rest of the game. I got stuck right at the 23 minute mark, as I just couldn’t figure out where the box thing was. Turns out, you had to climb a wall, hide in a shadow, or the eagle would get you. Then I just watched the video all the way through.
I successfully got through Chapter 3 on my own. I figured I’ll go back and get the collectibles later. But the entire time, I was thinking I should just play and watch a video at the same time, as that would save a bunch of time. I had the thought so much that I did that for Chapter 4.
Thanks again to Sylvain LUCE for his video.
The title states (with trophies) but unless I completely missed all of them, he didn’t make a great deal of getting the bonus trophies like Racing and From the Sky to the Abyss, but that’s only two trophies but the video is amazing for all of the collectibles. To the point that I got the From the Sky to the Abyss, was struggling with getting to all of the fox statues, did three of the five of them, I was tempted to get the above video reloaded but realized I had all of the collectibles and quit the chapter. I wasn’t going to do the last 30 minutes when I just needed to wake up, load Chapter 5 and get the Platinum. I waited until Walker Dennis was up and let him actually do all of the walking for Chapter 5 and five minutes later, we got the platinum.
So Sylvain LUCE did a great job with the extended walkthroughs.
PS4Trophies does a great job of just showing you just enough to not spoil the game but to give you the context to catch up to where you should be for the video.
Walker Dennis helped a lot with the first chapter, if you are looking for a game an almost five year old can play, RiME is up there with most LEGO games. He had trouble with the more complicated puzzles but I did too so the game is pretty challenging even for a 36 year old.
This game has a lot of humor in the first chapter that I missed, there are also no real beacons of where to go next, but the map isn’t crazy large (unless you are looking for collectibles).
I would highly recommend just playing the game, you probably won’t stumble across as many collectibles on your first playthrough but I really enjoyed the sense of accomplishment of figuring out puzzles on my own. But I also didn’t miss it during my complete walkthrough of Chapter 4.
That Chapter 2 though, seriously kicked my butt, it definitely has the most complexity of the four chapters. Four’s maze of finding the five fox lights (like the first chapter, in a nice bookend), gives it a run for its money but that’s mostly because it is just columns and dark and rainy, whereas Two has lots of side options you can get lost in.
Honestly, without these two videos, I would be lost, and again, there was a moment when PS4Trophies made a jump cut that I had to pause and figure out how he got there. Apparently, there is a structure with a sun emblem on the side of a wall, that without that clue, I couldn’t progress to the final section of the chapter. It is at the 12:20 time in the above video. I must have ran past it so many times, thinking I knew what to look for but clearly not.
Someone on reddit told me the other two chapters are easy in comparison and they were not lying about that.
Thanks to PS4Trophies for the Chapter 3 video.
Turns out, his name is Brian and has a Patreon page:
Which I thought was the website I go to for most of my walkthroughs of other games but that would be:
playstationtrophies.org
Which wasn’t as similar of an address as I thought it was. PSNProfiles has spectacular walkthroughs as well.
He’s also on Twitter so I figured I’ll follow him there. I’m also trying to remember what other game I would have watched one of his videos for but RiME is pretty much the first game I actually watched a video for the sole purpose of assisting me with trophies. Usually, I’ll watch game footage for games I want to play or am playing but don’t have time to play the game myself but just to watch someone else play.
So I didn’t really need his video for Chapter 4 except for the Racing trophy, which I figured I already knew how to do but it was the Sky to the Abyss trophy that eluded me. That happens at the 4:56 mark.
After seeing so many photo mode photos from the newest Spider-Man game, I’ve started taking screenshots of my games too. I need to upload them but I was worried about uploading photos that could be considered spoilers. But then why take the photos? I’m not sure.
RiME was a free game through the PSN way back in February 2018 and it has taken me essentially eight months to do this but really, a matter of weeks is all it takes and that is if you are taking your time with the game.
That true ending of RiME is super heartbreaking, especially after seeing the third person in the keyhole storylines and I’m going to have to look at those again in one sitting (thanks to the Extra menu). That poor man, I would create an elaborate mindscape too!
. . .
I’m still making my way through Batman Arkham Knight, probably just exclusively focus on that game until I finally beat it. I’m still committed to not doing that much in terms of trophy hunting, I’ll see what I get and what I’m close to getting, but these games like this and Grand Theft Auto, I’m never going to get the platinum for. I’ll say the same thing for Fallout games but I’m three for three on those so there’s something different about that. I imagine the lack of collectibles and lack of side combat challenges helps with that.
I completely messed up on my third Firefly mission and instead of chasing him all over and pressing the eject button and tackling him in the air, I pressed eject super early and flew/glided right past him, like a real dummy. So I’m hopefully I get a second attempt to catch him.
According to PlaystationTrophies.org, there are no missable trophies, so I’ll probably have to load the game and hope that it resets after 24 hours. That was one of the other reasons I pushed RiME back up on the list, I was going to wait until the weekend but I was hoping playing another game, would reset the ingame clock of Arkham Knight and Firefly would be there when I get back. Hopefully by the time I get the game started tonight, it is back.
I believe this is the fire station on Founders’ Island that I missed Firefly at. It looks almost close enough that Ghostbuster loving Walker thought it was the Ghostbuster station.
Which he’s been on the look out ever since I made the mistake of showing him that the fire station is in the PS4 Spider-Man game.
Thanks to Ghostbusters News for hosting the above video!
Super fun that they threw a picture of a ghost on the back of the building. As the building really is Firehouse, Hook & Ladder Company 8’s proper fire station.
But as a guy who will most likely never go to New York City, it will forever be the Ghostbusters house in my mind.
So that’s nice that fire stations all share similarities in both life and in fiction.
Someone did point out since Sony owns both the Ghostbusters franchise and the Spider-Man game is a Sony PlayStation exclusive, they could have easily made it the official Ghostbusters building and it wouldn’t have required too much negotiations. I imagine Sony wanted to honor the brave firefighters who call the building their home and threw in the ghost graffiti as a nod that they know other people know the building as something else.
By far my favorite entity the Real Ghostbusters went up against is without a doubt,
Samhain!
Something about his character design is simply amazing or that the episodes were top notch.
His first appearance was in the episode, When Halloween Was Forever:
Thanks to The Flintstones over at Dailymotion for hosting the video (I expect it’ll come down eventually). You might also have to refresh this page to get the link to work.
When Halloween Was Forever is from Season 1, Episode 8
He only gets one additional spotlight episode, Halloween II 1/2
Thanks to Cartoons TV, also of Dailymotion, for hosting this episode. It probably has a higher chance of staying up as they at least modified it enough to avoid copyright, I’m not sure.
Every year, I wish I had the Time Life The Real Ghostbusters gorgeous series set.
Luckily, Netflix is currently streaming the episodes so I’m definitely going to watch these episodes tonight.
. . .
When Halloween Was Forever is written by J. Michael Straczynski, who had a awesome run on Amazing Spider-Man, until he didn’t.
I still love that Spider-Man : Last Stand storyline that was hinted at in Amazing Spider-Man 58 (the second volume) and continued in Amazing Spider-Man 500 (parts two and three of an arc celebrating Peter’s birthday and Spider-Man’s 500th issue of Amazing).
It is barely a handful of pages but it captured my imagination so much!
I’m so happy that Insomniac made it available as an alternate costume in their PS4 exclusive video game.
Thanks to YouTuber sebanatic5000 for hosting the video.
Thanks to kwingsletsplay for a great lore video. Like he says in the video, there isn’t a lot of information with the suit and storyline but it looks sensational!
I do wish his mask was the same shade of red, as it just looks too bright next to that collar.
Here is a link in case you want to know more about him.
Pamela Hickey and Dennys McCoy wrote Halloween II 1/2, and I want to say one of these episodes aired during prime time which I remember feeling like a big deal.
If you want to learn more about the festival, Samhain, Wikipedia of course has an excellent article about it.
Apparently there is a group of people trying to move Halloween to be the last Saturday of October, which I get but I also rather we not change a tradition that is hundreds of years old just for commercial purposes.
Sure, I remember being a child and wishing Halloween could be longer or trying to manage it and negotiating so I can stay up a little longer on a school night. That was part of the charm. Plus, I also vividly remember just sitting around all Saturday, just waiting for nighttime so we finally go out and start looking for houses with lit porch lights.
I also grew up on an Army base (Yuma Proving Grounds, represent!), so we were pretty limited in activities.
Nowadays, Walker Dennis has a full social card and we go or try to go to every Halloween event Helena has to offer, which is a bunch. Every Saturday, there has been an excuse to put him in his super cute Rookie Ghostbuster costume and take him to an event. As an adult, I just like being able to get my dollars’ worth.
He’s going to be so cute and he loves that cloth proton pack. Not bad for $35, it is a tad thin for Montana fall but he’ll wear some layers under it.
We took him to an event and there was a teenage boy in a Stay Puft Marshmallow Man costume and Walker Dennis immediately went for his proton gun and the teenager was nice enough to play along. It was super cute.
We’re way into Ghostbusters now.
. . .
The other cool thing about Samhain on The Real Ghostbusters, is that he would just appear in the containment unit from time to time, as it costs nothing to just throw him into the back of a scene. Might as well reuse a design than pay someone to create a new ghost for one second of screen time.
He appears in the following videos
Xmas Marks the Spot (1×13)
The Devil to Pay (2×58)
Partners in Slime (5×6)
Jailbusters (5×13)
Deja Boo (6×10)
He also has a storyline in the first four issues of the second volume of IDW’s Ghostbusters run.
So like an hour and a half of content there.
. . .
For my adult plans for Halloween, I’m hoping to play another round (or at least start) a new Until Dawn playthrough but this time, making Matt the aggressor in his relationship with Emily, instead of her bossing him around. I just want to experience something new with what will be my six or seventh playthrough.
I still can’t believe Jordan Fisher was Matt in Until Dawn, how did that come about? He’s such a big deal right now.
I sort of want to do this so that Matt and Emily would be the duo survivors. Which I know I can do by having Mike not catch up to Jessica (though I hate getting Jessica killed), Ashley locking Chris out, Ashley following the sound. Then I’m not sure how the final sequence will play out, have Sam successfully complete the Don’t Move sections until Emily gets out, then have Sam fail one, she dies, and Mike sacrifices himself to set up cabin ablaze? That’s how I envision it having to be.
I know that I have to get Matt to refuse to want to go the radio tower, so Emily would give him the flare gun and he won’t use it as I want him to use it in killing a wendigo.
I’m reading up and there is a way to get Matt to describe both the wendigo and the Psycho but does he ever meet the Psycho? I know he knows of him and is aware he exists as Chris and Ashley tell him and Emily about Josh’s death. That must be what Matt is repeating, and how the cable car was tampered with.
I sort of then want to do a playthrough where only Mike and Jess survive the night as well.
I guess there might be a way to get only Chris and Ashley to be the only ones left too.
I wouldn’t mind trying to do a playthrough where only Josh lives too.
I definitely still think about Until Dawn and how much fun I had and there’s so many different end game possibilities.
. . .
Have a safe and happy Halloween! It is supposed to rain and snow this evening.
Gosh, I really want that new Spider-Man game on the PS4! I keep thinking of either asking for Spider-Man or Fallout 76 for Christmas, and then getting the other for my birthday in January. But if dog companions are not an option in Fallout 76, then I might just pass on that game entirety. I’m that committed to the concept. I keep wanting to get a PS3 so I can finally play New Vegas but they are still typically a hundred dollars, so that’s not happening any time soon.
In my anticipation of the new Spider-Man game, I’ve been watching a slew of Scarlet Spider gameplay videos.
This was the first video I saw of actual gameplay:
Thanks to GhostRobo for hosting the video.
It looks like so much fun!
This was my second video I found that also added to my hype for the eventuality of me owning it.
Thanks to DVESF for hosting their video.
I prefer the videos that show a few missions as opposed to strictly being free roam videos but both are very nice.
Thanks to kwingsletsplay for hosting their video.
Thanks to Beautiful O.B. for hosting their video too.
There are not that many videos featuring the Scarlet Spider suit so I’ll just upload the other two videos I’ve seen as well.
Thanks to KabukiSage for hosting this video.
Thanks to MaximumGuarded for hosting this video.
I saw there was an All Cut Scenes with Scarlet Spider but I’m trying my best to not spoil the actual game for myself. Even the ones above, I’ve only seen like the first ten minutes or so. It isn’t easy for me to watch videos unless I do it at lunch or once everyone is asleep. But at lunch, I’m trying to catch up with my podcasts (I’m like two weeks behind thanks to Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum, I’m finally caught up on his show now) and at night, I play my games.
I’m currently bouncing between Fallout Shelter (still!) and Batman Arkham Knight. I figured if I really wanted to play Spider-Man, I might as well play the other superhero game that I actually already own. This is another hard game to play as Walker Dennis just likes to take the controller and drive the Batmobile around town, but we’re getting into a nice groove of him wanting to unlock something or those militia tanks show up and I get to take those out, which adds to the progress. He can’t glide at all, so I’m not sure how he’ll fare with Spider-Man but who knows, he’s getting to become quite the little gamer. He’s going to be Batman for Halloween, so that’s really added to my wanting to play the game too.
I’m tempted to get a $20 PlayStation card so I can finally get the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle DLC for LittleBigPlanet and I’ll probably throw two dollars and buy Batman too. I also want to get $20 card and buy the season pass to Batman Arkham Knight, as well. If the Fallout 4 Season Pass wasn’t still $40, I’ll add that to my wishlist too but if I bought that, I wouldn’t get much play out of my other games. I’ve been wanting to pick up Uncharted 3 again but my backlog is intense at the moment.
. . .
For a quick update on Fallout Shelter, I’ve made huge strides in that game. I’m finally getting close to maximizing an elite group of ten lady dwellers to start searching the wasteland for legendary materials. I have like five legendary outfits and weapons created so eventually I’ll get 20 of each for those two trophies. I’m 12 more Raider attacks from getting that trophy. Once I have that one, I’ll relax a bit as that’s the only trophy that is outside of my control. I just feel like I’m in the back end of the game. I finally earned the 60 Quests trophy, so 40 more of those and I’ll get the 100 Quests. I haven’t achieved the 100 Objectives trophy yet, but I feel like I should be close to that one as I feel like I’ve done a slew of those by now but the PS4 doesn’t seem to track how many and there wasn’t a “Complete 50 Objectives” trophy so I don’t have a real sense of progress for that one. I just keep doing them.
I’m currently have three of them that are going to be time consuming, like successfully put out 45 incidents (I’m at 25 now, I believe), craft 7 weapons (I’ve done two but since I’m strictly doing legendary, the wait times are days long), and send out 10 dwellers to the wasteland (which I’ve done twice now as I’m maxing out Charisma for the other eight).
I finally got my first dweller, Sarah Lyons, to have found 100 items in the wasteland, not a trophy, but most times, they died before getting the total before they come back on their own. So I’m feeling pretty good about all of the progress.
I’m getting into the habit of doing one quest, having them come back, I have a cat that speeds up the return trip by 40% so it usually costs one Quantum to bring them back. Once they are back, I have Alexander, Andrea, and Ashley train in either Perception, Agility, or Luck rooms. I have them on a cycle. Now they all have the rank of six in each of those, so by the time I turn the game off at midnight and turn it back on between 6 and 7 in the morning, they haven’t ranked up yet to the next tier but they are getting there. I’m getting to the point where the rest of my dwellers don’t have a weapon weaker than an 8 attack stat, so incidents are easily to handle. I finally have my first male reach level 50 so now he’s guarding the vault door. He needs a stronger weapon but that’ll come with time.
On reddit, someone made a reference to Heavy armors, which is the highest tier of an outfit, so my next goal is to make three Heavy Merc Outfits. Those will be counted towards my legendary outfits trophy, plus, that is my preferred outfit for my quest squad. One of my ladies has a missile launcher which does decent damage the first round, as it is an area effect weapon, so it hits everyone the same in the room. Which is nice when there are only two enemies but if there are four, it is more of a tickle than anything. Second round, it usually kills everyone. So I’m debating about switching it out to another single target weapon but I’m about to create my fourth legendary weapon (I was given the Lone Wanderer, a 10mm gun, earlier), so I have 16 more hours to think about it, plus the time before I can play the game again.
Once I wake up and click on everyone so I have gathered resources, leveled up whomever leveled up, and acknowledged the training as been completed, I sent my quest squad onto another mission so by the time I can play at night, they are already there.
I have 55 Quantums, so now I feel safe in using them, I was trying to bank at least 25 but Bottle (of Bottle and Cappy) has been kind and started giving me bottles and I’ve been finding more on quests as well.
I’m doing quests per level so I’m finally on level 22 and my squad is at level 34 so I have some time before having to force level them so they can be my official team on quests until the end of the game.
For my wasteland explorers, I’ve been concentrating on getting them maxed on Charisma, as that’s what makes finding legendary junk possible. From there, I’ll max them out on Endurance and Luck. Endurance to combat radiation and Luck for caps. Though I have well over 200,000 caps so I really am not hurting for caps anymore, which is another huge benefit. I’m also able to keep my resource bars green and usually pretty full, except for power, but it is usually never lower than the halfway mark. Now that I am filling up my Weapon and Outfit workshops with six dwellers each, and the well trained ones at that, the turn around time went from eight days to four days. I’m also working on the Brotherhood of Steel Diner theme, so that’s taking another six dwellers and two more days. Once I have that completed, those six can go back to a buddy system and the Nuclear Reactor rooms can produce at twice the speed. That or they will go back to either being trained for Strength or Intelligence as I could use a few more of those at rank 10, so I’m not relying on the same ones. My goal of getting all of my dwellers to a minimum of five ranked in Luck is slowly coming along too. I’m halfway down my vault, playing for five minutes at a time on the weekend has really helped with that.
As soon as one of my ladies reaches level 50, they go off to Charisma, unless that is full, then Endurance and then Luck. For whatever reason, my three wide Endurance room only tolerates four dwellers when it should be six. My Charisma room allows six but not endurance, which I wasn’t expecting that. So I have a good number of dwellers in both Endurance and Luck as I await Charisma training to max out. I definitely want Charisma to be maxed before sending them out to explore. It is a lot of prep work that is also time consuming but now that the goals are being met and I’m cycling through dwellers rather well, it is all coming together.
I’m trying to be patient with waiting for theme pieces but after getting three duplicates in a row, I might bite the bullet and speed Quantums to buy theme pieces as I want to continue building all of the themes for that trophy. I keep telling myself that I have plenty of time as I wait for raider attacks. Those do seem to be coming more frequently so that’s been nice. I did end up creating a second vault that I will not get more than 30 dwellers in, as that’s when mole rats start appearing but raiders were not coming any faster over there. It is all random but I’m so close to 50 on my main vault, I might as well stick with it. It was fun and nice to just make an efficient vault with a three wide power/food/water rooms and one of each of a medlab and science room. I had to buckle down to get a storage room but I’m hoping to stop there. I don’t worry about the resource rooms turning red as clicking on one room once it is ready essentially fills up the bar again. It was nice having a proper vault that isn’t so cluttered.
Fallout Shelter is such a fun game and I’m allowing myself to be addicted to it but it is all in good fun.
I was leading up to describing my other goals with legendary outfits. Once I have the three Heavy Merc Outfits, someone on reddit wrote that there is a level 40 quest that requires Institute jumper and an Institute rifle. I already have one rifle and one jumper so I need to create two more jumpers and another two rifles in anticipation for that mission. There was a daily quest, also a level 40 something, that required having a minimum rank of six Intelligence so I got my squad to that level. They are not leveled enough for it at the time, they still are not, but at least they have 6 Intelligence when that time comes. I lost a day of doing a quest but I like having them prime for when that happens.
There is another quest, like level 24, that requires only one dweller with a junk jet to go on. I already have the dweller who was equipped with the junk jet prepped for that mission. I’m tempted to level up the Overseer’s Office at that time so I can start two quests at once. It is that or just pick one of my squad members to go on their own, take that other dude’s junk jet for the one mission and then swap weapons again once they have come back. I imagine it is just easier to upgrade the office and have two quests going at once and then not do that again. I have the caps for the upgrade and that one dweller has a minimum of rank 5 in Perception, Agility, and Luck (PAL), which are the skills you need raised for quests. PAL. ECL, Endurance, Charisma, and Luck, is needed for exploring the wasteland.
In terms of SPECIAL inside of the Vault, S for Strength is great for Power Stations/Nuclear Reactors, Perceptive is great for Water/Purification rooms, Endurance helps with Nuka Cola rooms, Intelligence is great for MedLabs (Stimpacks) and Science Labs (Radaways), and Agility is great for Diners/Gardens. Charisma doesn’t help inside the vault from what I can tell.
In terms of crafting, I have only needed dwellers with high Strength and Intelligence, thus far. So I need to start training more people to 5s once I’m done getting Luck to where I want it to be. My eyes got big when I put my first dweller in a craft room and it stated eight days to build something. With cats and dogs that take a percentage of time off of crafting, and five more dwellers, I got those numbers down to four days, and that’s mostly as I’m being foolish with not making sure the dwellers in the crafting room are the highest trained ones, which I might take the time to do that once I get home tonight.
I guess that wasn’t quite the quick update I thought it was going to be and it is much longer than my Scarlet Spider initial post.
. . .
In Batman Arkham Knight, I don’t feel like I’m far enough in to make a proper post about it yet. It definitely is a fun game, I haven’t committed a lot of time with it. We got the second island opened up, Catwoman has been taken by the Riddler, Walker Dennis somehow found the first race that gave us the first key of nine (for her nine lives, I imagine). We completed the two firemen rescues of the first island, and found the two bandaged bodies on the first island, I’m wanting to do this mystery as my official quest but I’m not having much luck figuring out where the opera music should be coming from on the second island. I do like how the game will piece meal clues for us, so I know the body should be found somewhere along a room in the Kingston district. I’ll figure it out eventually, I know I have to listen for opera music and look for spotlights. My son, on a rare run along roof tops, came across Man-Bat and that spooked him real good and he attempted to chase him for a good about of time and then got distracted or wanted to drive the Batmobile, so we have that side quest unlocked as well. Barbara is still a hostage of the Arkham Knight, I’ve been lucky enough to not have his identity spoiled for me and I have a suspicion who it could be but I’ll let the game unfold the mystery. I’m a tad worried about it being spoiled but not worried enough to commit more to the game.
I really need to learn the names of the islands. The first island, I took care of all of the militia tanks and I believe we no longer have the two ground bombs to contend with. I do have another militia side quest with towers. They work for the Arkham Knight so it makes sense they have a slew of side quests of tanks, bombs, and signal towers. I think that’s everything I have going on at the moment. I bought Batgirl’s DLC and the 1989 Batman/Batmobile DLC, as well as downloaded all of the free items of other suits and Batmobile skins, as well as the avatars.
I’ve triple checked that there is no Calendar Man holiday trophies so that’s nice to know I haven’t foolishly missed out on a year’s worth of holidays. That was a lot of fun in Arkham City but I get them not continuing with that.
We have stumbled across a few Riddler trophies/riddles, my son isn’t great about not attacking the green highlighted thug nor interrogating him so I’ve missed out on three tips (not like I’m counting).
I keep trying to write my opinions on the Batmobile but I keep not doing it.
We got him the Arkham Knight Batmobile a long time ago, I just bought it as it had Batman and Hot Wheels and I’m trying to raise him, not specifically on comics but make him aware of those superheroes. If I had a Local Comic Shop, I would love to get him comics and into that hobby but we live in a world where cartoons, television series, and movies are a thing, so he’s aware of so many of them. So he’s a big fan of Batman, which makes sense.
After playing the game and driving the Batmobile around, the design of it triggered my memory and I started looking for it, he has quite the collection of Batmobiles once I got them all lined up.
I probably could have arranged it so the black vehicles were not on the black part of the carpet. The purple car is a regular car but I’ve always referred to it as Joker’s car so it had to be included and the light blue one is Bruce Wayne’s car. My favorite has to be the 90s Animated Batmobile. It is so sleek!
So that was my first interaction with the Batmobile. It reminds me of the Nolan Batmobile where it is more tank than car. Which I’m fine with as it makes sense and has that certain cool factor about it.
The driving of it feels no different than say Grand Theft Auto V, which is saying a lot, as it just feels like you are driving a regular car. I feel horrible when I crash into buildings or I watch a cute four year old crash into buildings and anything else on his way to wherever he’s going. Battle mode is cool, and I’m finally getting a hang of using the Vulcan gun and the rockets and trying to build up my special attacks with the missiles.
Arkham Knight, outside of the Ace Chemical building, kept destroying the Batmobile while he was in his fighter jet, so I had to update its defense but besides that, I haven’t updated the Batmobile nor Batman or any of the gadgets. I’m just keeping all of those points for when the game requires me to upgrade certain items, or I can’t make any more progress as I keep dying. I know I need to update the batrangs to three batrangs, I should upgrade so I can do combos at five hits instead of eight and get disruptors for Riddler clues but all of that can come naturally. I just learned my lesson from Asylum and I know better than to do upgrades as I want to do them, as the game has other intentions and it takes a bit to level up.
YourHostEdge confirmed that at level five, the costume unlocks so I can go around rescuing balloons and collecting collectibles until I can get the costume and then make that my main costume.
So maybe it is a combination of being level five and needing five tokens. Now that I typed that, I wonder if adding the tokens together for five is what is throwing off the being at level five but time will tell.
I made the mistake of looking it up but this totally exists!
Look how cute that is! Funko really knows how to sell these! Scarlet Spider was a Walgreens exclusive that I had in my hands but decided not to buy it at the moment. Which is silly as I know the greatest commandment is Thou Shall Not Hesitate but I did and now I lost out.
I do own this Scarlet Spider bust
and his Heroclix
I also own a proper action figure of his but I can’t seem to find it through an image search, at least, mint on box.
It looked like this but this one looks pretty new still.
I just really liked Ben Reilly as a character and I really need to check back into his adventures now that he’s back, and he’s been back for a while now too.
His Spider-Man costume looks pretty great to me too.
I probably won’t be able to buy the game until it is around $30 but still, I’ll add it to my wishlist!
Something else to look forward too!
Here is the costume reveal trailer –
Thanks to YouTuber Caboose for hosting the video.
I like how the suit’s power is to create decoys, or “clones” if you will.
