McLaren holy shit.

We’ve got a dehumidifier running at the moment and while my fiancé doesn’t exactly appreciate how much water I’m getting out of the air, this is still me

Cuddling up with a coffee and Octopath before the kids wake up.

Dunno if it’s my age increasing but peeing first thing in the morning is rapidly becoming the best feeling ever. Lovely empty bladder.

That is AWESOME

I’m so sorry, I can’t figure it out. I’ve got a folder on my PC of dope art I’d saved over the years and just chucked most of it onto my Kobo

Time marches on, and the age of a new king draws near.

Man I love custom lock screens

Stolen a handful of hours on Octopath Traveller 2 and I really love it. Throné and Osvald are brilliant characters so far.

As adorable as my eight month old is, I believe she may be an actual maniac.

YUP. It’s good as “My First Roguelike” but doesn’t do enough outside of the art style to feel worthwhile.

Well everyone in the comments is telling you it’s legit so I think that’s just you?

Trying To Find A Balance

I’ve been slowly watching season 3 of Star Wars Visions (the animated series) and my main issue is that ALL of the stories feel like they want to be expanded upon.

They’re all great concepts, wonderful characters and worlds but just so unsatisfying while they’re this short.

I REALLY want to play The First Berserker: Khazan.

I think I need to move it further up my priority list because every time I see it I go "Oh that's fucking awesome."

Octopath, Skate Story and then maybe that?

I like your skeets to let you know I enjoyed them.

I think you're smart to save a few up, it feels very binge-able.

And AppleTV has some brilliant stuff! It's definitely worth getting a sub for a few months and just enjoying what's on there, then cancelling.

I'd also recommend Silo, The Studio, Black Bird and Severance.

It really feels like it'd be a good binge but I don't think I have the willpower to put it down now!

Oh, I watched the second episode of Pluribus this morning and thought it was excellent.

I'm purposefully pacing myself with it, but I reckon that'd be a great series to just binge.

We’re keeping fit!

First boss in Octopath Traveller II down (I started with the thief) and holy HELL I may have underestimated this series. Very engaging. Loved that.

oh, so dispatch is very good

Currently:

- Playing: Octopath Traveller 2, Monster Hunter Rise

Everything about PC gaming in your living room is a plus.

I'm less sure about buying the hardware for myself but I think SteamOS is a huuuuge win for the platform.

Yeah I’ve heard playing 2 can make going back to 1 hard - but I don’t have a hunger to play both so I’d do 2 for the ‘easier’ time.

I’ve heard mixed things about 0 so far, and 1/2 is cheaper right now anyway 😂

This might have been premature as I now fancy playing Octopath Traveller instead.

Whatever I choose, it feels good to not have loads in rotation and to be hungry for a new adventure.

Steam Community :: Nikes :: Review for Rue Valley I'm aware of the negative and mixed reviews for this game, and personally I wish I'd waited a few weeks or months for a handful of tweaks to come out. I think for now I will review this positively, th...

I finished Rue Valley.

Ultimately it's a very moving, though flawed game. I'd recommend it once a few fixes have rolled out (and possibly at a discount)... but I enjoyed myself and think much of it will stay with me.

I wrote some thoughts in a Steam review here - steamcommunity.com/id/outline01...

just try not to think about it x
