Feeling pleased with myself for using "Only now, at the end, do you understand" in a work setting. Sadly I didn't electrocute the coworker at the end of it, but we take what we can get.

Friend got me Disco Elysium so I am playing that. Lost the game when I failed to make a jump to a ledge, luckily taking my pants off gave me the necessary 4% chance to succeed. Still mucking through Syberia 3, I want to exterminate the Youkols. Puzzles are still not interesting, too much tedious searching for things through environments that are too large.

Is that some euphemism for masturbating ?

Washer has been giving trouble, first intake valve was leaking so we had that fixed and now the pump is acting up - well I think it is. So no washer for a good chunk of time, sort of a pain to hump laundry over to a laundromat, especially with the amounts we have to do. Thinking about just getting new ones, but as it's stackable we'll probably have to change the washer and dryer (physical size is going to be an issue as well as warranty) at the same time and Bosch, our preferred brand, only makes condenser ones which won't work for us.

Sounds like it's a problem with you, wussy casual.

Hard liquor.

Not sure how much it is holding us back, though.

Highlights of this year for games for me: Ghost Recon Wildlands, co-op was fun even if it does get repetitive but we screwed up enough to keep things exciting. BFG:2 Armada - fun enough 40k game, the changes they've made from the first game are good - I still kvetch over having limited torpedoes though Replaying Witcher 3 NG+ and wringing the game dry - think I've sunk 200 hours into it. Other than that though, mostly have the usual time burners of Diablo III, WoW and FM2018 as well assorted older games.

Syberia 3 is pushing the limits of my tolerance now, mouse cursor disappears every time I zoom in. And this is the supposedly patched version!

Not there yet, trying to get to totally-not-Pripyat. I hate the need to use mouse gestures to rotate clocks or handles, etc. Now that I think on it, I don't recall anything about Dreamfall Chapters. Huh.

Gotta get it over with quickly

So far DFC is just better for having not garbage VO and controls. But Kate has a better ass.

Surprised he's not trying to impeach Obama.

Started Syberia 3. Boy this is rough. Subtitles mismatch, audio cut outs and some odd voice acting (this is supposedly in some ersatz Russia I think, yet everyone speaks with dead American accents) alongside the tedious UI are not making this all that fun. Also forget a lot of the previous games.

Probably means the lefty snowflakes will commit suicide or something, you should know how the dog operates by now, Hurl.

I was just hoping for the ending battle to basically be Gohan vs Cell, where Rey needs everyone's power to amp up her Light-side force lightning to win the beam lock.

Sort of surprised Iran Contra didn't undo his Presidency, given how huge a scandal that was.

Well, that was the purpose for all... Granted it is a bit more naked with the needless introduction of crap like the kuncle dragging AT-ATs and the Sith troopers. On the bright side, we're not getting some DBZ esque final battle like the Matrix ended with, so there's that.

Reading Episode 9 spoilers has me wondering what was the point of this trilogy.

Congrats. Your life is now truly over.

Condolences Raithe,

Finished Yesterday. Paid $5 for it and still feel like I overpaid by $20. Well ok, upon reflection maybe too harsh. Sure was a weird experience, not a lot of sound in the game, either by design or just incredibly buggy. Interesting premise though and the flashback bits are interesting - characters definitely are not.
