I use a battery pack for my Switch. It extends the battery life up 6 hours, though it does take awhile to charge and makes the switch around a third again as heavy. https://www.amazon.com/10000mAh-Nintendo-YOBWIN-Portable-Extended/dp/B07QD5T6MJ&ved=2ahUKEwieicDzuJT0AhWpnWoFHYAaCSMQFnoECAcQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2kNTP2dxlB47_P_-0HlmW3

Just unlocked an achievement for Ys 9 for 2000 kills after sitting back and letting a fire mushroom explode. I laughed a bit too hard at the irony of that.

Been playing Ys 9. I love the Ys series, though not as much as I do Falcom's other flagship series The Legend of Heroes. There's got to be 3 or 4x as much story in Ys 9 as there was in 8. There's a lot of cut scenes, for an Ys game. I like the characters but I feel like the twist is very obvious. The gameplay is the best in the series with new slick traversal mechanics like teleportation, wall running, and gliding and a decent size new city hub to use them in. Even so, some of the flying enemies are annoying. So far my favorite Ys game to date.

Elex 2 is set for a March 1st release date. https://store.steampowered.com/app/900040/ELEX_II/

Atari.

My codpiece doesn't do much for armor but it's snazzy and a great conversation starter.

Wow. This thing blew up.

With the exception of love making, I agree.

Yeah, the more Jets guess would be that our backup would get injured.

My Jets on a Thursday night game against the Colts. I think the short week will make the Jets look a bit better than they are but given how good the Colts defense is the final score gets out of control in the 4th quarter. 28 - 19 Colts. Mike White does not throw for 400 yards in this game and unlike last week the 2 ints he throws tonight will be solely his fault.

Everyone I know personally, except lawyers, has had covid. Most showed no symptoms.

^You haven't unlocked Chuck Jones yet?

They always sound fun until I remember I hate backtracking.

Everyone I know who's been vaccinated later caught covid. Not sure why you're raking Rodgers over the coals for considering himself immunized and getting covid when the same's true of ever vaccinated player who got covid after the shot.

Taken out the doorway of my cottage. Messed with the color and contrast a bit to make it more dynamic. I thought about moving the lawn chair or at least putting it upright but I actually like it there. Gives the place a lived in feeling.

My niece's kitten.

Cincinnati had 10 points off of 3 turnovers and still lost to my Jets.

My Jets out gained Cincinnati by 60 yards in the first half but thanks to 2 interceptions and 1 fumble the Bengals have a 17-14 lead.

I'd love to see an MMO set in Eora but I'd rather see an outside studio make it, kinda like how Bethesda did Elder Scrolls Online.

I used to like professional wrestling in the 80's but I've got too many hobbies and too little time to keep up with it these days.

SureAI the makers of Enderal and Nehrim announced they're making a new game with their own engine. https://forum.sureai.net/viewtopic.php?f=136&t=14730

Steve Buscemi was Fain in my head canon.

No spoiler tag needed here 'cause this is speculation, but if such a thing were to happen in the books the White Tower would've plotted to dislodge the whitecloaks from Amadicia. After all, kingdoms have risen and fallen by the grace of the White Tower for less. Seems like a weak attempt to make the whitecloaks into mage killers when they were already terrifying as peasant killers.
