I played Hellblade for the first time (thank you for the gift Grendel042!) and while I absolutely loved it, things got.... spooky and this stream might be haunted so proceed with caution.
Special thanks to BA Gaming Rigs for making this stream possible!
In case you missed it, you can read the recap below or watch the stream on YouTube. Add me on Steam, send a tip, and find all things streaming here.
In this first stream we:
enjoyed the game's very cool atmospheric opening that got even spookier because my camera kept glitching so now we think the stream might be haunted
learned that we're trying to save the soul of our dead lover from Helheim by defeating the Giantess (goddess?) Hela.
once again met up with our arch nemesis from Tiny Tina - A PLANK TO BALANCE ACROSS - but we handedly defeated the balance beams because ya girl can learn.
encountered the memories of our dead mentor Druth, who told us where to go, as well as various creepy whispers of spirits and self-doubt
passed several tests including solving our first puzzle
were attacked by shadows, but were resurrected with a decaying arm and learned that if we die, we'll come back more decayed and if the rot takes over our head - the quest is over.
set off to find and defeat Valravn - the God of Illusions through an area that changes around us based on our actions.
defeated the respawning shadow enemy and won our first real combat encounter first try! I'm pretty good at mashing buttons if I do say so myself
