The new year will bring us a lot of interesting games that definitely caught my attention. You should definitely expect news from me and new guides.

See you in the new year!

I love making guides, but even in my favorite activity there are things that make me want to smash my PC so hard. The name of this thing is: recreating guides once again.

And it's not about the fact that the developers updated the game, added new achievements and now I have to update the guide. No, this is normal and natural. Then what's the problem?

At a random moment in time, Steam can selectively or completely delete all images from the guide. Completely. They will not be displayed to users, and in the guide settings, only the name will remain. Because of this, the entire layout of the guide collapses and even if the guide was completely finished, now it needs to be redone.


It is doubly unpleasant when I start receiving lots of angry comments about the guide being empty, nothing has been added to it, although everything was fine until Steam suddenly deleted the pictures.

The issue here not only in the fact that the images have to be re-uploaded and then the guide sections edited. For some reason, even if you delete old images and try to upload them again, Steam will show you an error. This can be fixed by changing the file name.

This problem is not unique to me, other guide creators also face it. And of course, those whose guides consist only of pictures suffer the most. No one knows exactly which images disappear: sometimes all are deleted, sometimes only some. Also, the guide itself does not depend on it: images can disappear in both a new and an old guide, in a popular one and in one that no one has visited for a long time.

Steam support can't help with this problem, they only give standard recommendations like checking internet connection, updating browser cache, etc.

The only way to get rid of this problem is to create completely text guides without any images, and I really don't want to get rid of the style of my guides, because I like the way it looks and I think it makes them stand out from the crowd, makes them attractive to users.

Or there's another option: constantly check ALL your guides for such bugs. Oh, I already have more than 90 of them, and such a check not only doesn't save the risk of encountering a problem, but also greatly discourages the desire to do anything at all.

I hope one day this will be fixed

Hello, Sweethearts!

I haven't been in touch for a while, so it's time to break the silence and answer some questions that I get from time to time.

You've probably noticed that the number of guides I release has decreased. Yes, this is due to the fact that I can't make guides for all the games I want as before, I have to be very selective. On the other hand, this frees up time to finish the existing guides, and new guides are filled in faster and acquire a proper, finished look.

Here are two excellent examples of guides that appeared recently and are almost completely finished — Age Of Mythology Retold Guide and Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 Guide.

One of the serious points of criticism addressed to me is that at a certain period I created a lot of guides in a row, but not all of them were finished properly. I want to eliminate this shortcoming in order to calmly move forward, without looking back.

You probably want to know what guides are worth from me: there are so many games ahead. I won’t jump ahead to 2025, we’ll talk about that later. Specifically, right now I can confirm that at least 3 guides on AAA games will be released by the end of the year. Release dates are constantly shifting and changing, so this number may still change.

So that you don’t torture yourself with guesses, I’ll tell you right away:
there will be no guides for God of War Ragnarok and Silent Hill 2. I also initially planned a guide on Dead Rising Remaster, but abandoned this idea.

I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I have no doubt that there will be other enthusiasts who will create cool and useful guides on these games

Wow, folks, now we look like a small army. Thank you very much to each of you, especially if you not only watch, share and add to favorite, but also reward with points and write words of support. In conditions when I do not accept donations, gifts, game items and generally act with full enthusiasm, your reaction is especially important. I really do not want to use the "pay - get" deal, I like that my guides are useful, convenient and help you achieve your goals.

It's good that we are together: help each other with advice, get together to unlock achievements and remember that together it is easier, together it is more fun.

We will stay in touch, always yours, xoxo,
Melissa.

Hallo, Sweethearts!

You may have already seen my STAR WARS™: Battlefront Classic Collection guide. If not, be sure to check it out
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3182743438
I can say that I have lost the desire to make guides for future Aspyr games.

The thing is that I usually manage to get access to information about the achievements of the upcoming game quite long before the game's release.

In this case, everything went completely wrong: either the BF remaster was not interesting to anyone (which is unlikely, the game was in the top 10 for Steam sales and had about more than 20k additions to wish lists), or something else. But I received access to information about achievements literally a few hours before the release.

A similar situation happened with the Tomb Raider remaster, but the situation there is worse: more than 250 achievements at a time is a cosmic amount of work. I also got access to them literally a couple of days before the release.

Fortunately, I was saved by my extensive gaming experience in the original parts of BF as a child. Therefore, based on the benefits for achievement hunters, then the guide is complete and has all the necessary information. Based on the visuals and design, I will continue to add to the guide.

Right now I plan to focus entirely on two things:
— Completing the Tomb Raider guide
— Preparing materials for new guides

Thank you very much for your support and most importantly, for your patience. See you!

Hello, Sweethearts! Long time no see!

During this time, a lot of interesting things have accumulated that I would like to share my plans for the future.

March is rich with an interesting releases here on Steam and I physically won’t have time to cover them all, and besides, I still need to finish work on existing guides.

First of all, it’s worth reminding that I have two new achievement guides: one is related to Tekken 8 and it’s almost finished. “Almost” means that it literally lacks screenshots of two or three achievements.

All other information is complete, but I can’t calmly say that the guide is complete knowing this fact. Check it here if you missed that.

The second guide is about Tomb Raider I-III Remastered. This guide is incredibly huge, I can even say that this is the largest guide I have ever done, because it has about 269 achievements.

It is worth paying tribute to the fans of the game, many of them are extremely patient and treated such amount of information with understanding. The guide is already almost half filled with basic information, then you will find my personal process of polishing the final look.

As for new guides, I can say for sure that this month there will be 3 new of them. I already have the basic design layout ready for them and I'm actively looking for information about achievements that will be in games.

I can’t say yet what exactly these games will be. I can give a hint that one of these games will be a major AAA game that a lot of people are waiting for, and another game is not even on Steam yet, lol.

Unreleased.

I love turn-based tactical games and I'm not averse to mixing business with pleasure, but lately I haven't had much free time, so I had plans to make a guide for the game Crown Wars: The Black Prince.

https://steamproxy.net/steamstore/app/1658920/Crown_Wars_The_Black_Prince/
However, I understand that this is a low-profile game, so my guide will not receive the attention it deserves while I waste my time in the wrong places.

In addition, I played the demo and I can say that the game looks very poor, so I have no particular desire to buy it at release date.

I'm not ashamed of the fact that I have a lot of unfinished guides. I slowly but surely continue to remake, update and fill them. This has already affected my Dune: Spice Wars guide. In the near future, there will also be other guides for games that have received updates: Age Of Wonders 4, Darkest Dungeon II and others.

Thank you for reading this, I hope the information was useful or interesting to you. Stay tuned, I will still be posting news about new guides, so you won't miss anything. See you later!
