I’ve just started another playthrough of Mass Effect: Andromeda! Took ages to get the mod manager and EA’s app thing and Linux/Wine/??? all cooperating (or at least not fighting me effectively enough that I can’t play the game :P ) but off I’ve gone!
Hmmmm, what else lately. Battlefield V, apparently. Bit of PlanetSide 2. Started SIC-1 (the single instruction set computer programming game) but haven’t really been in a mood for it. Tried Stellaris again to see if Swayland changed the microstutters. It did not. Game looks horrifically complex now too, so meh. Tried again to find a new build that interested me in Path of Exile but no :-\ Uhhhhmmmm, touched Endless Space 2 a little, played some Helium Rain (which is free now! Very neat little space freelancer-to-empire kinda thing, like an itty bitty baby version of an X game). Almost went back to Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous which I love but an out-of-game sad and increasing memory-distance from my playthrough are making it harder to go back.
Oh, also logging into STO for the winter event and complaining about the Winter Wonderland. You’d think that being an ice princess I’d love the winter event but it’s awful. You know a winter event is bad when I strongly prefer the summer event! Totally backward, makes no sense! Rar rar rar, et cetera!
Anyway, this has been my latelish-gamesy ramble. I hope somecritter has enjoyed or at least I won’t get downvoted into Oblivion. Though at least if I do I can maybe meet some cool Daedra :3 (This post is being written directly after “waking up” (assuming I have, in fact, done so) and as such the thoughts represented within may or may not be my own, rational, intelligible, or representative of any official royal policy or belief)
Halls of Torment: I’ve been playing it religiously for the last two weeks now. And I only have two Steam achievements left to collect. It’s Vampire Suvivors but Diablo. A simple concept, but it really works. The game has great atmosphere, and it really is a steal for the price. I just wish there were less frame drops, when my screen gets too busy at the end of a level. But it’s really the only complaint I have for the game.
Talos Principle. The VR version of the first game, haven’t gotten around to the second game yet. I love the puzzles (when I don’t struggle with timing running past mines), and it’s hilarious that the philosophical test to make a Milton admin profile showed me how utterly unprepared I am for philosophical debate, and how weirdly contradictory my viewpoints might be. Mind you, the only philosophy class I’ve taken in my life was an ethics class.
TL;DR Talos Principle is amazing so far, even though it makes me want to slink off back to college and sheepishly register for a philosophy class.
