    Plans for the Covid 19 Lockdown

    Going on 2 years out of that life and I don't miss it one freakin' bit. I don't miss the insane stress of exams, I don't miss having assignments up the wazoo, I don't miss having to sit in a lecture hall and try not to daydream while the teacher either drones on and on in a boring or worse...

    Plans for the Covid 19 Lockdown

    I've been in Work-From-Home Isolation mode for a week already. I'm managing. I planned for 2 maybe 3 weeks, but now it looks like it might be longer. I am NOT relishing the thought of either making the 20 minute walk to the local grocery store or having to pay for them to deliver my stuff...

    Does anyone else hate their job?

    I feel supremely fortunate to have a job I love, at a game studio I massively respect, with colleagues who are all pretty dang nice, for a boss who sincerely appreciates my work and talents. And that cares enough about the employees that he went "Alright guys, we're gonna work remotely for...

    Super Bernie World. A Mario Reskin with Bernie Sanders and the election.

    Eh, this is kinda funny, but- *does a double take* OH MY GOD. ARE THE KOOPAS ACTUALLY MITCH MCCONNEL TURTLES?! I am literally in pain from all the laughter. XD Scratch what I said before, this isn't just kinda funny, it's hilarious.

    The Crunch Factor on The Last of Us Part 2

    This is a horror story. Everyone is their own producer? 3 WEEKS OF WORK WAS WASTED FOR 3 PEOPLE, because there was disagreement over one stealth section?! No wonder they're bleeding personnel over burnout! And of course, if they're losing senior staff all the time, that DRAMATICALLY...

    Mod Edit: New forums are live for beta testing! Link in OP (April 3, 2020)

    I've run into Saelune on Warframe before, pretty funny coincidence actually. They've logged in pretty recently so they're clearly still around. :) -- I dunno if I'd call myself active anymore. Being in my own apartment now, and being in a more open work environment, I feel I have...

    So has anyone seen the Sonic movie?

    As much as I like Sonic, considering that I have no one to see it with, and I don't know if there are any theaters nearby in this new city (or indeed if they'd be showing it in english), I likely won't go out to see it in theaters. Especially since the general consensus appears to be "It's...

    Persona 5 tips

    You're still very early in the game, so there's plenty of time to min-max the heck out of your Confidants and stats. Yeah, stats are a pain in the ass, I have little advice for those. For Charm, there's apparently a bath house not far from your house that buffs it, and jobs can boost your...

    The best Roguelikes of the last decade?

    I'd like to stick an honorable mention in here for that Mooncrash DLC for Prey 2017. Not only does it provide a clever set of mutations on a common map, and lots of objectives to accomplish, but it's got some great little narrative beats as well. The whole game feels like you're peeling back...

    Anthem rework has been "confirmed"

    ...I wonder how many more "Stress Casualties" this is going to lead to among their staff. :( Cuz it seems like they'd have to basically remake the entire freakin' game.

    System Shock 3 team allegedly made redundant, game shelved

    Oh fuck really? Double whammy. -_- This is just depressing. I didn't have suuuper high hopes for the game, but damn I was still hoping it would be at least decent. :( I'm so salty about Prey 2017 not doing well. It's one of the best Immersive Sims I've ever played. Great, smart...

    The best Roguelikes of the last decade?

    Oooooh! Roguelike discussion! :D I love these games! I see some of the classics are already mentioned like FTL, which is the goddamn gold standard for me for roguelike RPG type games. It's still a blast all these years later. - This one is more of a pseudo-roguelite, but...eh...

    Any New Years Resolutions?

    Considering I started the new year by straight up moving out, and to a totally different city, no less, I don't have a traditional new year's resolution. I just have a "let's see how well I can make it on my own, at long last" resolution. (First week's been pretty good, mostly just need to...

    Sony Exclusive Come to PC

    I saw this. Real hyped to play Horizon Zero Dawn, actually. :P

    UPDATE: Its Another Fire Emblem Character for Smash...

    At first I was like "oh no, is this another Marth? We already have 3 of those..." Then I was like "Wait, he's got a bow? ..and and axe? And a lance? And his sword-whip can spike people above him? ....Alright, I'm sold. Fire Emblem feels a little overrepresented, but eh, he/she looks...
