DeadTreeJig.6714 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I've been playing for a little over 2 years and for various reasons I was never able to play during Halloween. It was a blast, I the achievements are great. I've got all kinds of new mini's, skins , weapons and stuff. One of my favorite things was following the Mad King around Lions Arch as he tells those awful jokes. Steve was both awesome and annoying, especially in a small group. My son and I were battling Steve together from different rooms in the house on discord. Afterward my wife asked what all the yelling was about, as soon as she heard the words "giant skeleton with a chainsaw" she packed her bags and left. Okay, she didn't leave but she did have that "why did I marry a man-child" look in her eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to try, remembering that in past years, I've failed so dismally. :D (And please, no one show me the video of the 4-year-old little one mastering the Wintersday JP -- it just makes me sad. ;) ) I've tried the Clocktower for the past four years and never made it as far as half-way. This year I went in with a plan: I'd spend 30 minutes every day actively working to get better and to complete it. And last night, after spending well over the 30 minute goal each day, I finally completed it . Believe me, I am not a JP aficionado. I have no natural talent. But I can say that with perseverance and determination it is possible. :) It was definitely a feeling of accomplishment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellisande.5218 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Thanks for fing nothing. This is just a recycle of the 2012 events with ALL the same problems. Clock Tower is still impossible for some of us and we are being unfairly penalized for being unable to do poorly designed jumping puzzles like this. The achievement SHOULD NOT BE TIED TO A JUMPING PUZZLE NOT EVERYONE CAN DO. That and the fing skeleton from the Labrynth that is impossible to run away from show that some of the devs should not be making video games if they hate players that much and don't know what FUN means.
