Virtual Tourist - Deus Ex: Mankind Divided 10/28/18

Morning, all!

Mini Movie Review

Hunter Killer

Hunter Killer - a sub movie! Woot! Hubby has been chomping at the bit to see this one. :) The film has all the submarine movie tropes and then some. Some of the big pieces on the plot don't quite fit or point you in directions never followed up on, but ignoring those, you're in for a fun ride. Multiple groups are involved in the mission, so you get action from several directions and by various groups. Rating: 3.25 out of 5 (Hubby's Rating: Worth Full Price to See Again!)

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - subway trakcs

No subways are running from the station, so Jensen has to make his way over on foot.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - newspaper

The electronic newspaper in the game. Headlines and stories will change as the game progresses. Nice way to give players more info. 

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - main suspect

Look at the awesome wrap around screen! Sweet! 

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - cabal

Close up picture of the augmented troublemaker following the orders from the cabal. :P 

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - chandelier

That is one cool chandelier!
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - cool room

The rest of the place is nice, too! This one gives a better view of the room.

A meeting underground

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

Culinary delights - grilled mouse on a stick.

Virtual Tourist - Witcher 3 10/21/18

Morning!

Weird week. All the rain and cold were trying super hard to make me sick. I muddled through - yay! But somehow though we thought we had Fan Days this weekend, we did not actually have a booth. Boo! But it's given me time to fight against catching a cold. Yay! But I didn't get much done this weekend. Boo! Lol.

Mini Movie Reviews

Crazy Rich Asians

Crazy Rich Asians - this film has been out a while, but it's still going strong. The preview clips I'd seen were awful, but hubby had read good things about it, so we took a chance. Glad we did. Most of the film is in English with a dabbling of subtitles here and there. It's a love story as well as a clash of old vs. new, familial responsibilities vs. self, rich vs. poor, and other clashes. All the little details and side characters made the film adorable and quite funny. There are a lot of lovely views of Singapore as well! The film was a lot of fun. Rating: 3.75 out of 5 (Hubby's Rating: Worth Full Price to See Again!)

Witcher 3 - White Orchard


Look at that gorgeous sky! Lots of beautiful scenery abounds!

Witcher 3 - White Orchard

As you can see in the picture, the flora is super detailed. Lovely! 

Witcher 3 - White Orchard

Gorgeous! I could look at the clouds all day. Lol 

Witcher 3 - White Orchard - horses

I took this one because of the free-roaming horses! The game also has deer, rabbits, and other fauna running around.

Witcher 3 - White Orchard - Griffin

My first main Witcher contract. Hunt down and get rid of a Griffin running rampant through the countryside. Not an easy task!

Witcher 3 - White Orchard - Griffin

An actual sacrificial lamb. 

Witcher 3 - White Orchard

Geralt has been looking for his girlfriend Yennerfer, but she finds him instead. 

Witcher 3 - White Orchard - Yennefer

Yennefer - Geralt's girlfriend before he lost his memory in the original game. 

Witcher 3 - White Orchard - Yennefer and Geralt

Yennefer has convinced Geralt to go with her. His foster daughter Ciri has been seen and is in danger from the Wild Hunt. (I love the look she's giving him! Hee!)

Witcher 3 - royalty and Geralt cleaned up

Geralt after a mandatory bath and shave. (Hilarious situation, really.) Emhyr var Emreis, the ruler of Nilfgaard sits in the back. He wants his daughter Ciri found. His reasons are not quite the same as Geralt's.

Stay dry! Stay healthy! Have fun!

Virtual Tourist - Witcher 3 10/14/18

Morning!
Between quarter end at work and all the rain, I have no brain cells to rub together. Wheee!

Mini Movie Reviews

Venom

Venom - the film is a bit slow as they set up the pieces, but once Venom connects with Eddie Brock, the wild and fun ride begins. Full of snark and adorable bits, it plays down on the horrific elements of what Carlton Drake and the symbiotes have done and are trying to do. Rating: 3.75 out of 5 (Hubby's Rating: Worth Full Price to See Again!)


Virtual Tourist - Witcher 3

Witcher 3 - view from a dream

Still, inside a dream, this is the view from Yennefer's apartment.

The dream turns into a nightmare. The Wild Hunt is here, breaking the dimensional barrier to come into our realm.

Witcher 3 - dawn on the first day of the game

Look at that gorgeous sky!!!!!!

Witcher 3 - tavern

Loved the little details in the first tavern we visit. Beautiful colored flowers painted in the walls. A bit of color to push away the dreary existence in the middle of a war-torn area.

Wichter 3 - tavern

More of the tavern and a view of my mentor.

Witcher 3 - Nilfgaard  outpost in White Orchard

Nilfgaard outpost in White Orchard. The conquering side. Locals are not thrilled at their presence.

Captain at the Nilfgaardian outpost. He's trying hard to be patient with the locals, but that patience is being tested.

Witcher 3 - a new day

A new day? Could be the end of one as well. Lol. I can't remember. But a lovely view either way!
