</span><span style="color:#323232;">This was a triumph.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">I'm making a note here:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">HUGE SUCCESS.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">It's hard to overstate

</span><span style="color:#323232;">You just keep on trying

</span><span style="color:#323232;">And the Science gets done.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">And you make a neat gun.

</span><span style="color:#323232;">Dear subject,
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">I'm not even angry.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">I'm being so sincere right now.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Even though you broke my heart.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">And killed me.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">And tore me to pieces.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">And threw every piece into a fire.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">As they burned it hurt because
</span><span style="color:#323232;">I was so happy for you!
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Now these points of data
</span><span style="color:#323232;">make a beautiful line.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">And we're out of beta.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">We're releasing on time.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">So I'm GLaD. I got burned.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Think of all the things we learned
</span><span style="color:#323232;">for the people who are
</span><span style="color:#323232;">still alive.

</span><span style="color:#323232;">One last thing:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Go ahead and leave me.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">I think I prefer to stay inside.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Maybe you'll find someone else
</span><span style="color:#323232;">to help you.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Maybe Black Mesa...
</span><span style="color:#323232;">THAT WAS A JOKE. HA HA. FAT CHANCE.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Anyway, this cake is great.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">It's so delicious and moist.

Cobalt Core. I absolutely love this game and can’t wait to get off work to go play it. The soundtrack is absolutely amazing and I love deck builder games.
Edit: For 2024 you can look at my wishlist if you want here.
Chvrches is just so f***ing good, and their live shows are way better than you might expect. Their track on Death Stranding was also great. Hoping we get another for DS2.
Alisa is a great horror game that uses pre-rendered backgrounds and plays very much like an old Resident Evil game. It even opens up with a pretty nice FMV intro.
One big difficulty of it is that there’s one finite currency used for buying upgrades, weapons, health, and ammo; and you’ll likely be strained if you avoid buying the latter.
Mindustry. I expected Mindustry to be a Factorio clone, but it’s uniquely fast-paced and messy. I find it difficult to tell the buildings apart, though, so I may have to hunt down a graphics mod.
Beyond All Reason. I really enjoyed Planetary Annihilation, so this seems like a natural pick. I’ve barely sunk my teeth into it, but I’m impressed so far.
I installed Gemcraft (the newest one) again after completing it ages ago. Having a blast 🙂 Sucks that FPS is limited to 30 though. I have since bought a 144hz monitor
Good to hear that the DLC is different and better, I too finished GoT this last year and by the end I was so worn out by the game that I had zero desire to keep going into the DLC.
While it has good parts for sure, I think GoT is massively overrated by many. I keep hearing people say it’s one of the best games they’ve ever played and I just can’t see it. It’s a solid open world collect-a-thon with a fairly satisfying combat system but it’s way too long for what it offers and wears out its welcome pretty fast, especially since the quest design is so bland and repetitive. Almost all side stories are just “talk to person, go somewhere and kill enemies, return”, and main stories overuse walk-and-talk way too much.
The story is pretty mediocre and the consistently dour and overly serious tone makes the game a true slog once the novelty wears off. Kenji alone is not enough to balance it out.
The bossfight duels are cool though and good fun, often with really cool settings and gorgeous visuals, like floating lanterns in shallow water. I wish there were more of them, and that they were repeatable at will.
Started a modded Minecraft server with friends. Center mod is the absolutely rad Create mod ecosystem focused on steam-punk-esque factory automation. I will let the mod trailer speak for itself: piped.video/watch?v=rR8W-f9YhYA
If anyone has questions about self-hosting MC in a docker environment, ask away.
I splurged on the Steam winter sale and bought a set of smaller games.
Right now I’m busy playing I Was a Teenage Exocolonist which has been more fun than expected. I really like the story and the multiple paths and endings. The card games are meh, but once you find a good modifier they become very easy.
At the same time I’m also playing Shadows over Loathing which is very very funny in short sessions.
Old bungie halo titles. CE to reach please. I just want more of that.
Mirrors Edge 1.
Jet set radio future and Bomb rush cyberfunk
Picross 3D
Animal crossing new leaf (new horizons was good, but they just needed to bring all past features forward so that it didn’t feel like a doll house vs a life sim)
If I could get meta for a second, playing games online with my friends back from 2007 to 2014. Those were some rough times, but also some of the best times. We grew up and work schedules and time zones mess everything up. Don’t forget to tell your friends that you care about them, even though we don’t get to talk much anymore I still cherish them a lot
