I read, I write, I play video games. Just trying to dissociate because I'm allergic to reality right now.

I use this utility to remove so much of the bloat that comes stuffed in W11 PCs. You can click a couple buttons, check the descriptions of every change before you implement it, and have an improved experience. There are a lot of good videos going over it if you need.

Oh my gosh the music for this game is amazing! Jazzy, synthy, fast paced. 16bit, breakcore disco even? Man its been too long since I last played.

I've heard that people with ADHD get a lot of their dopamine reward from the thinking phase of doing an action. This then makes the act of doing said thing less motivating because you already got the reward. Is there any truth in that?

On Steam, they released a preview patch that you have to manually choose. Once they've fully released it, there will be a cauldron incantation to go back before the ending so you can experience the new dialogue and story moments.

Or you can watch it on YouTube πŸ˜…

Did you get to play the new preview patch that has the improved ending? It does a much better job setting up character choices and showing conflict because of those choices.

I just had to make a local account for an IT job today. Probably one of the last times I can do that easily.

I wish there was some way to get mass adoption of Linux going. It would fix so many issues that people have.

Due to the time anomaly of 2020-2021 and the games quintessential connection to that time, the game's life span varies by a factor of 50 years or 5 months.

Well in fact, Roger wasn't a writer. He was some guy they had in a room and the writers studied him like a twisted psychology experiment.

Due to the tactical nature of this game, will enemies have more health/deal more damage than your other Lumen games to account for that play style?

Her serious, but warm-hearted demeanor is so different from Zag's angsty sarcasm. And yet they are both so equally charming.

I just finished Hades 2 a couple hours ago. Such a wonderful ride.

As I'm thinking about my own Lumen game ideas, I keep coming back to a hybrid grid system that takes the zones of Thorn but each zone has grid spaces for players to maneuver around.

It might just be my experience with D&D talking, though. And I've still yet to play an actual Lumen game.

I'm surprised you've never heard about these. They're pretty popular on the YouTubes.
