I’m tempted to give this a try. I already am really happy with my VPN and password manager, but it looks like you can subscribe to mail/calendar for a reasonable price. If I did that and drive, I’d rely on Google a lot less.

I see where you’re coming from, but I wouldn’t want to be caught reading this at work.

This is a beautiful game. The OST and visuals are amazing, and the movement is pretty fun as well. I remember playing a couple of times with one person through the whole game. Once was one of my first few runs, and the last was a white robe who showed me where all the collectibles are.

Coding requirements could be a lot less strict if we just solved this bus problem.

I’d bring an amateur radio. Fun device that gives you access to an alternate method of communication. They’re old fashioned, but amateur radio gets used here and there in emergencies. I think it’s more of a precautionary thing from a practical perspective, but it’s still cool.

You’re supposed to talk to philosophy dragon, not slay it.

And half a quarterling is a sixteenthling, just like music.

Boooooring

You can test drive the car before you buy though. I did some months ago, though I didn’t end up buying it.

Granted, you don’t try the exact vehicle that you’ll be buying. You used to be able to return the vehicle within 7 days, but it looks like they canceled that policy.

I might be more inclined to agree if there was some benefit to having him show up in person, but I don’t see why he can’t just attend this remotely. People get sick after being vaccinated too. Maybe is a minimal risk, but it seems like a pointless risk nonetheless.

When I was middle school, I did just start smelling bad as I was sweating more. My parents told me to start wearing deodorant. I didn’t know that some people just don’t smell when they sweat.

Check out Slay the Spire if you haven’t already. I did find some forum posts with people complaining that the touch controls don’t work well, but you can try the game and refund it if it’s not working properly. (At least steam should make this pretty easy.) it worked well for me on iPad, but I can’t personally vouch for the experience on windows.

It’s probably nothing. You could say the same about “Krusty Krab.”

Dang. I was optimistic that they may be trying out a linear single player shooter, but I guess that was naive of me. The live service model is making so much money for them, so they’re doing the most sensible thing. This is just them recycling some old IP, not an actual revival.

“I plead the third.”

“You mean the fifth?”

“No, the third.”

“You refuse to quarter troops in your house?”

“I have few principles, but I stick to them.”

Nintendo does have a lot of issues, but they’re clearly a company that still puts a lot of love into their games and products. I hope they keep on making great games, and maybe they’ll even make better hardware some day. Even if they don’t, not every system has to offer the latest and greatest to be fun and successful. Nintendo proved that time and time again.

Since Blasphemous II came out, I decided to give the first game of the two a try, and I’m amazed. For me, this is as good as a hollow Knight in terms of the map size, exploration, combat, music, everything. It’s phenomenal. The odd art style put me off at first, but it was unfounded. The game is awesome. If you’re on the fence about it like I was, take this as your sign that it’s a good metroidvania. Your mileage may vary, but I don’t usually give annoying or tedious games the light of day.

While we’re at it with non-horror games: the level that introduced the flood in Halo CE really gave me a scare. I don’t know what it says about me, but I invited a friend over to play that level with me, lol. It’s a bit of a reach not being a horror game, but a great game with some tension here and there.

I recently finished Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. it’s a fun game, but I’d say it was a bit expensive for the overall length and simplicity of it. Still, I really enjoyed it.

I also downloaded the free version of Shadow Warrior on GoG. I am not playing it blind since I watched Civvie-11’s video on it already, but it’s way harder than I expected. It’s my first time playing a build engine game, but the weapons and combat feel very intense and satisfying to use despite the technical limitations of games back then. I think I will keep on playing on “who wants some wang” for now, but it’s taking some perseverance. Lo Wang is hilarious though, and it’s making the game way funnier than I expected. If I keep on enjoying it this much, I may give other old shooters a try as well.

I don’t know I had relatively little problem with Dark Souls 1 and 2, so I don’t get the people saying it’s the easiest game in the series. Something about the combat just didn’t mesh with me. No big deal though.
