The People of the Abyss, Royal Caribbean Cruise Edition

Finishing up an episode of Friends and putting on the new Norah Jones/John Legend duet. Levels of Living, Laughing and Loving previously thought impossible.

I did not lol

where are my crusoe-heads at

Ohhh

Is the new Adam Curtis available in the US or am I gonna have to get creative

Anyway the thing with Tony Hawk AW that it doesn’t get enough respect for, imo, is that it’s the ultimate culmination of the INCREDIBLE control scheme and game physics that Neversoft had been perfecting since THPS. One of the best games to control ever made imho.

Respectable. I’m an original GoW guy. Fueled by Mtn Dew.

Which God of War tho

Well the game boy advance ones are. for free at that. but, yeah.

NFL 2K5 tho…

Othercide is a cool pick. You should really play Fire Emblem!

The Gothic remaster on Switch is really nice. The updated UI and controls are so helpful.

Yeah I’ve enjoyed 2/3 but I felt like there was less interesting non-interpersonal choices in them. Also everything becomes about The Big Threat. I love in one how the universe is just operating around you. That shady corporate snow planet was my favorite.

I’m benefitting from playing the Legendary Edition versions. But yeah what I love about 1 is the Big Choices feel very immediate and you feel so much less tied down the paragon/renegade system.

It was so tough to pick between Awakening and Three Houses for me.

I have more stuff on my street now (and it’s very funny that the street is Route 66) but the 90 degree heat every day isn’t really encouraging me to head out there.

I’ve been told I went to a really bougie one on accident. What I get for daring to think I could just WALK to something nice in the neighborhood. As if it would ever be that easy.

Last time I went to the dentist for a basic check-up/teeth cleaning, I got charged over $1k lmao

Tetris Effect, Mass Effect 3, Mario Odyssey, Zelda Minish Cap, Fire Emblem Awakening Lots knocking on the door.

My top 10 games of the century in no particular order

- Mass Effect 1
- Witcher 3
- Gothic
- Celeste
- Tony Hawk’s American Wasteland
- Smash Bros Melee
- Super Mario Galaxy
- Fire Emblem Three Houses
- Doom (2016)
- Papers, Please

Interesting. I’ll have to keep an eye on this.

Oh I made a link on accident, nice

There’s so many American Libertarian memes about wanting to be left alone on a farm. Always strange to me. That’s very attainable! Leave your tech job. Buy a soybean farm in Mississippi, very affordable land.

Why haven’t you don’t it? Maybe because you don’t want to be a farmer at all??

I don’t like posting about politics much because it feels like impotently screaming into the void. but, man, not a great year. it must be said. not good.

I splurged on some chocolate chip muffins earlier and they’re literally the worst muffins I’ve ever had in my life. Devastating end to the night.

There’s been a precipitous decline in popular songs about being The King of The Road, but you won’t hear the crooks in Washington talk about this.

Around the world, audiences are BOOING Ethan Hunt. They’re chanting “NICK MORTON” over and over. If we can’t get Tom’s character from The Mummy back, we aren’t interested!

The combat is kind of whatever, but narratively I think it’s still much better than most AAA games today.
