The Singular Cowness

Not saying these games don't deserve a shot, but me reading these submissions on the public list, never heard of your game before, don't have access to your VOD, and you say "has RPG elements"... okay, what are those elements? You say it's Dragon Quest Minecraft, but Minecraft isn't an RPG...?

Really weird submission list for RPGLB this year. Tons of runs that say "Not really an RPG", or list several other genres their game crosses over with, and none of them make effort to justify the game as RPG-enough. From someone who got such a game into the event once, you gotta explain yourself.

How many times per day do you all tell Google, Microsoft, etc that you don't want to try out their AI thing? I'm up to 4-5.

DQ9 fans in shambles

Ever get hooked on a song and find out the band hasn't played it live since 2017 when they toured for that album specifically so there's very little hope of ever getting to experience it live?

Just finished a FF5 Four Job Fiesta where I stubbornly refused to equip armor all run (starting after Siren). And, uh, didn't really feel it. Armor sucks, waste of gold. Buy weapons and spells and potions instead.

If anyone's curious what it was like staying at the @rpglimitbreak.bsky.social hotel venue this year (due to no fault of LB staff of course)

Update, found four more pieces in the suitcase upon returning home

It's only got one screw holding the shell together now but that one screw is doing its best

Wait it took the photo not the video.

Made it to RPGLB but the SNES isn't doing so good

How's the job search going? Well, I just applied for a job whose minimum salary is more than I made at the job I walked from after ten years, and it wouldn't allow me to type in a number greater than five years for my level of experience.

Played DW4 up through the lighthouse to test this NES Blue Retro controller adapter, and got my worst-HP Alena ever. Previous PB was 72 HP at level 11 w/ all life nuts rolling sixes, my second run of the game ever, in 2014. New PB is six HP worse (seeds rolled 5+5+4 today).

Coconut covered Slime cupcake sounds really good after all the birthday burritos I ate today ngl

Also wow bsky really cranked up the volume on this video when I uploaded it. Way louder than when I play the file sitting my phone.

Decided about two weeks ago to try downloading Blender and see how easy/hard it is to use for 3D printing. Pretty pleased with this as a first project. I don't like his eyes, they're too high up, but this was my fourth attempt drawing them and I'm tired of re-spraying his face with white primer.

Made a candle.

This dog who consistently tears up new toys within thirty minutes of receiving them has been carrying around his new security-chicken since Sunday, inflicting minimal damage on it.

I think the next DW7 stream's gonna be Tuesday, rather than tomorrow. Might need to take the dog to the vet, and a couple other things are happening tomorrow. Each of which I'd skip individually, but eh, collectively maybe I'll just hang out.

Gonna break in this account by announcing that I've quit the job I've been at for ten years to instead run Dragon Warrior VII full time. Live in a minute.
