This looks real interesting. I’ll definitely keep an eye out for it and see what the reviews say.

Same. I enjoyed a lot of what I played but I don’t get on well with metroidvanias. So I only played a couple of hours before I either got lost or died too often to a boss.

I recently got myself an Anbernic, it’s the one which looks like the GBA, see through plastic and all. It’s a surprisingly competent little console. It even comes preloaded with a shed load of retro games. I’ve been enjoying playing games from systems I missed out on growing up.

My family had about 5 of these between us by the time we started getting into lites and 3d versions. I had the original chunky boy and a 3ds. We took them on holiday and played the brain training multiplayer games. Great fun, my parents even got into them for a bit and they said off video games a long time beforehand.

I’ve been playing Rogue Trader, really enjoying it so far. I’ve also gotten myself a harmonica and started learning to play that, I’m still at the nursery rhymes stage but it’s good to make music again.

We had a long weekend in the UK. The weather was surprisingly reasonable as well, it only rained on Saturday. It’s always nice to have longer off work.

I think that’s maybe a bit harsh compared to a lot of the games mentioned here. Witcher 1 definitely has a lot of problems compared to 2 and 3 but it had a lot going for it as well. Sure the combat was broken as hell once you got all the spinning moves and it was super sexist with the women as trading cards thing. But the story and world building were still fun and Geralt was well characterised. It’s not a great game but it did well enough to get them the sequels. Definitely nowhere near the worst game I’ve played.

It’s very similar but nowhere near as good. I got it for free on playstation a while back and stopped playing it to go back and play the dead space remake again.

Talk to your Dr again. Antifungal tablets have a not insignificant chance of messing with your liver, ie permanent damage so you should avoid them if you can.

Oh that’s fun! Do you have a suitable amount of pun equivalents of your local shops and landmarks?

My previous game was Dresden files accelerated where we played in the late 90s version of our town. My players burned down the pub. It was a good laugh.

That sounds fun. We always play theatre of the mind with maybe some simple maps if there’s a lot going on.

I’m currently running a game of Spire the City must fall. Not been playing it long but already loving the characters my players have made. It’s a really dense setting so I’m running a module and keeping them mostly in a couple areas of the city to make things easier for me. The system is pretty interesting though I’d recommend it.

What are you playing? I hope it goes well.

Mid way through season 2. We’ve just had the one where Teal’c is turning into a bug.

We’re watching Stargate SG-1. Still great.

Max Power Racing on the PS1. Surprisingly good fun. Plus I had to get it out of the way before I played Crash Bandicoot and Tomb Raider.

I have been playing a lot of Pacific Drive. Highly recommend it, I’m loving the vibes. Mostly chill with moments of panic.

Snap I’m about to go to the innermost zone. Really enjoying it so far. The vibes are great. It’s mostly chill with some intense oh god I’m going to die moments mixed in.

That is one shifty looking owl.

Of course it would be rude not to.

I’ll add it to my wishlist and keep an eye out.

Ooo, colour me intrigued. I loved the Dungeon keeper games back in the day. Are we talking spiritual successor or just invokes some of the same feelings?
