Tale

Some Titanfall 2 multiplayer and some Muv-Luv Alternative. MLA feels like a slow start. Or at least that's what I hope I'm going through.

I watched both Ozark and American Vandal this week. Fan-freaking-tastic. I was laughing out loud (at work) with AV.

And maybe some day you'll find him.

Titanfall 2 The campaign is maybe half as good as everyone was saying it was. The multiplayer is the first time in a while I've played a game with fewer than 20 players in a match and actually enjoyed it.

Playing through it again myself. I really like the random encounters from Tales from the Tiers.

I decided to knock out some shorter games while I wait on Danganronpa v3. Ori and the Blind Forest was fantastic, Hollow Knight I gave up on around 6 hours in, and lastly I'm now on Evoland 2 which falls somewhere between the two.

I'm not playing it, but I'm sorely tempted to give Deadly Premonition a second try. Anyone a fan? I'm watching Twin Peaks and find myself desiring something similar.

Transformers comics from the Humble Transformers vs GI Joe Bundle. I got it mainly because I remembered an old Transformers plotline where Shockwave (the greatest Transformer of all time) united the factions on Cybertron and wanted to read the whole thing. Turns out that was Dreamwave comics, where this is IDW. It's actually really quite good anyway. It's no grand opera, but it promises giant plotlines and ancient conspiracies. Edit: Looking it up, IDW ended up reprinting that particular Dreamwave story at some point. But I don't think it's included.

Is Prey as good as the original? (Prey) I hated the original Prey. So I'd say this one's better, but it's not fantastic. It's very much like Bioshock on a space station, or rather it's trying to be System Shock from the developers of Dishonored.

Finished Uncharted: The Lost Legacy. Definitely longer than I was thinking it would be. Now back to God Eater: Resurrection and Kingdom Hearts HD.

I may just be miscounting my time played or am not really entering the final act. Or both.

Got up early this morning and put two hours in Uncharted: The Lost Legacy. I'm just afraid this is going to be very short. Feels like I'm entering the final act after only about 4 or 5 hours.

My backlog is growing again! Just started Uncharted: The Lost Legacy and am committed to playing it. But I also recently started Kingdom Hearts 1.5+2.5. And am still playing God Eater: Resurrection. I'm supposed to be finishing up Dies Irae and Muv-Luv Alternative comes out in a handful of weeks.

Not exactly getting hyped. I don't feel that trailer told us much other than we're apparently going to go through a mountain pass.

I had a date today. It went well. I didn't get stabbed.

schadenfreude? Nah, that's enjoying another's misery. This is more like the opposite of that.

Is there a word for "paranoia brought about by positive events?" Asking for a friend.

I feel like I might be nearing the end of Prey. Only a couple areas remain locked off from me and between Psychic Water and my neuromods I can use Psychoshock III with near abandon.

The world of online dating is going out of it's way to mess with all my expectations. In a good way. It's very suspicious. I'm being vague because I'm putting the world on notice. I'm on to you.

I just hit Arboretum. Still seems the same. Why would you ever not take human stuff? I can understand not taking Typhon stuff if you're worried about unfriendly turrets, but I don't see any drawback in taking human.

Still not quite feeling Prey, but I'm chugging through it. I'm cheating resources to give me lots of neuromods though, which works for me. This progression system gives me absolutely no clue as to what I can expect to be able to hit through normal play, so I'm trying to grab all the stuff that's interesting now. I think my main problem is there has been absolutely no big hooks in the game so far. Nothing I've seen has amazed me. No great characters, no breathtaking vistas, no fun fights, even the interesting powers all seem like something I'd get very limited use out of. Maybe mindjacking will be useful, we'll see. God Eater Resurrection is getting kind of stale too because the introduction of new monsters is slowing down considerably. But it's easy enough to get into that I keep going back to it over Prey most of the time.

So I mentioned before that I'm trying out this online dating thing. Well, it wasn't going so well. No responses, no matches, meh. So I completely redid the profile, even got a new haircut, new pictures. And 48 hours later, OKC is telling me that it's putting me in their attractive people database. Apparently they split the database in two depending on how many likes and profile views you get. I'm going in the good half where my matches will mostly be pulling from other beautiful people like moi. I think they're overselling me in that case, or maybe just trying to prevent me from being king of the uggos and ruling with an iron fist. In other news, I had to cut my jog short today when I made room for two girls who insisted on walking shoulder to shoulder as I passed. My leg went off the edge of the sidewalk onto the curb which was only a slight height difference, the weight shifted, and the ankle went sideways. It only hurt for a little while, but I'm taking it easy tonight.

... You should blow those 80 bucks on helping me move back to Minneapolis https://www.gofundme.com/olivers-going-back-to-the-midwest The bloody truck is expensive, and any proceeds I don't use will go to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. (hopeful shilling to help make ends meet) It's too late, bruv! I've already got the cards and they are magnificent. Almost makes me wish I had poker buddies to cheat. Good luck, though.

The suicide rate is generally understood to correlate with lack of social support in their case. When the people around them, including family, friends, neighbors, are hostile and discriminatory, that's where a great deal of it originates. Now, progressives are not exactly a a shining beacon of acceptance for transgender issues, regrettably, but they certainly don't have as far to go as conservatives.

I just blew about $80 on playing cards. I forgot I even had this weakness! Two are pre-marked decks and ones a stripper deck. And then some decks that simply looked pretty. And I might mark up one of my bicycle decks when I get home. Never done it before, but now's the time to try.
