Tattoo on the backside of the left leg

I'm in a bit of pain, but totally worth it 😆, we did the left arm yesterday. I think it turned out really well ❤️ and we did a little touch-up on the leg tattoo which healed beautifully.

A - Coffee

I didn't like the game for reasons, but it not being nominated for that incredible soundtrack is a crime

C - No 🙈

A hidden Mass Effect cypher has been decoded by fans and links to a page featuring Krogan, presumably after the events of the trilogy:

"Civil War"

Could that be Grunt!? 👀

In the blog? Was that in there? I only read Krogan. 🤣

Game Awards: We're inviting less press and opening up seats to the public so that we (probably) can have a more engaged, excited audience for the camera and make more money

What the Game Awards thinks the public can afford:

Mass Effect 1 to Legendary Edition for Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC.

Happy N7 Day!

Looking forward to adding another Mass Effect to the collection ❤️

perhaps the most egregious thing that happened with the Future Class was when The Game Awards took money from Old Spice in the name of the FC & simply... pocketed it

it wasn't used to fund Future Class initiatives, it wasn't used to help lift marginalised developers

they just profited from us

C - But he is one of my favorite characters of the franchise (& I like what they did with him in Veilguard because of this)

NetEase has pulled funding for more than half a dozen western studios in the past year.

This is what I wrote in February 2025.

As part of the Power of Play survey, industry associations also took a close look at the participating countries. GamesMarkt summarizes the results. This time: Egypt.

I'm overwhelmed by new games/shows.A lot I've been looking forward to recently released or is about to: Battlefield, Crusader Kings Add-On, Anno 117, S4 of The Witcher, Drag Race. But it's so much at once that I'm unable to engage & instead watch Downton for the 1000th & play old games for comfort 🫠

A - For sure, I'm always in for more DA

Oh, that would've been a great callback!

B - DA2/DAI

D - Lucanis. IMO (love Teia & Viago) the Crows were displayed as way too nice & good. It didn't really sit well with me, considering their day-to-day business & what we learned about them in DA1-3. The faction should've been portrayed in a much more cutthroat & dark way IMO. They're the Crows.

I also had a good time with Avowed. I wished it had more depth in some ways, but it hooked me enough to want to go back into that universe. I hope they'll make a sequel. 🤞

I enjoyed the first episode. He's alright, but he pales in comparison imo. But I haven't watched the show because of Cavill anyway, I'm in it for Yennefer & Anya is great as Yen. I hope after The Witcher 4 we finally get a game where we can play as one of the Sorceresses. 🥲

B - After 😬

Happy one year anniversary to Dragon Age The Veilguard ❤️

For the anniversary I caught up with my current Mourn Watch PT and checked out some graves with Emmrich.

Unpopular opinion: Before starting The Witcher season 4 on Netflix, I'm rewatching some of S3 & just like the first time I enjoy watching it. 🤷‍♂️ I really don't get it why people hate the show so much. Anya Chalotra as Yen and My Anna Buring as Tissaia are my favorites.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
