Generally is a problem with having urgency in a game, handcuffs the creator otherwise.

For a moment there I took that as you somehow selling an apartment you don't own

I think I got it for free. Funny how you can still feel ripped off at that price, Still Life 2 was that experience for me, awful experience.

If they are right and they don't affect gameplay, what's the problem ? Their attempt to calm the jihad.

The Forge in SoTR was a fun puzzle, died more times due to overestimating the jump distance, heh. Unlocked the farewell mission at last, so that's almost done. Then will take something from my backlog of games, maybe Omerta...

Seagal is like the total mirror of him, hah.

Reminds me I need to watch JCVD

Burning plastic smell turns out to have come from an external plug that was scorched badly to the point of melting, so that was fun to find out today. Going to be an interesting repair, especially this time of year. Never a dull moment.

Came across this from a Patron ad of all things

There's a mission to wrap up the trilogy in Shadow of the Tomb Raider, so trying to knock off all the DLC missions to unlock it and then I'll put a bow on the game. That mission to return the crab idol to the temple was pretty fun, interesting to see the timing of the flame jets actually does adjust from when you're not in the middle of crossing them (perhaps tied to difficulty ?)

Anything can be used as a bat, though. You haven't lived until you've tried using a 6 year old as one.

Finally got out from a rock and saw this

Tacky as all hell having that contest.

I'd guess B, seems like most of the weight is on the front legs.

I thought the husband was the intelligence agent.

This list is quite funny in hindsight...

I hope Jack Keane is one of the free giveaways.

I had Friday off so missed out on that excitement. Sure beats debugging missing $0.02 from balance statements...

Star Trek Armada and Armada 2 are added to the catalogue, too. Wasteland 3 at 67% off too, hmm...

And beat the main story in SotTR. Got my money's worth from it, maybe will go back and replay the previous two as well. Last boss fight was annoying in how repetitive it was, running around dodging the boss while dealing with irritating adds, bleh.

Yeah that was well designed, the whole section of being hunted and on the back foot really makes cutting loose and wasting the mercs all the more satisfying, even if it is less.

The oil refinery bit in SoTR was great, starting off with that stealth section, although I cheesed the AI by making them investigate a growing pile of bodies, and culminating in the last part where Lara decides to become the Terminator complete with ominously raising from water silhouetted by an inferno.
