What are you Playing Now? - Video games are bad for you? That's what they said about rock-n-roll
Almost done with Deadfire. Funny, I already stumbled over 2 bugs in the game... back when I played it the first time (and a second time right after), I didn't notice any bugs at all. Game still looks great. I just love how my people look like. Just damn Serafen won't give me his stupid hat. I didn't had him in my party for a big part of the beginning, because for once I wanted to use different party members, but now I'm unable to improve my standing with him... I really want to replace him with someone else again, BUT I NEED THIS HAT. GIVE IT TO ME SERAFEN, GIVE IT TO ME. REEEEEE. You know, I feel like the biggest issue with the game are all the tiny islands. IMO, less islands, but a more connected feeling would have worked out much better. Really hate it to go down the islands like a checklist and at best they have a 1 screen mini-dungeon with some mobs in them. It feels cheap and lazy even though it isn't... it's just too disconnected from the rest. Oh yeah, another thing... this time I did not upgrade my ship at all and... I'm completely fine. Maybe things got changed with patches later? Could swear that I had A LOT more sea battles back in release days. Now I only have them if I initiate them myself.

The TV and Streaming Thread: That's Entertainment!
Watched that new Dexter show. I've expected nothing and was surprised how it did not suck at all. Would say the casting was pretty good-- some of those people I even had to look up on google because they felt so close to the original, it was scary.

Funny thing about the hud in very old games is that our screen resolution was very low and we just couldn't display a lot of information due to a lack of available pixels. When playing old games today with super high resolutions, the hud now tends to be very small and minimalist, while back then it was also filling half the screen.

Since I'm currently replaying Deadfire, I'd say the Avowed color palette is pretty much exactly the same. All those outworldish elements are in that game as well- huge mushrooms, bright colors, etc. From what I can tell it's exactly the same, just in first person. The one thing I hate in videos and screenshots is that the hud feels so cluttered. There is so much crap going on, which I really hate and makes me think of MMO stuff.

So Trump signed a new executive order that funding will be cut for all schools that mandate the COVID vaccine. Sounds terrible, right? It's outrageous! Until you find out that no school mandates the COVID vaccine and it's all just hot air. https://www.immunize.org/official-guidance/state-policies/vaccine-requirements/covid-child-school-2024/

Ukraine Conflict - In the grim darkness of the near future, there is only war!
Trump is such a master wordsmith. Makes it sound as if Ukraine started it.

You people made me download Deadfire again to check out the turn based mode. Well, trying to download... for some reason Steam isn't budging at all and I'm downloading with like 100bps. /Edit: Finished download, made my character, started a new game. Damn, I forgot how good it looked. And I love being a pirate in a pirate rpg. Now I just wish the controls would be more like BG3, lol. Also love the TB mode so far... Always hated the RTwP blobbing. Also I honestly wish the dialog would be thinned down a little. There's so much clutter that could be removed ez and it would make for a smoother reading experience. Oh, also I remember that I hated the avatar selection back in the days... still do today. Nothing fits my actual character, which sucks hard.

Interstellar was absolutely awesome (except this "god/love" thing in the end), you people are just stinkers. Also, the TARS robot was amazing and I wish we could have that in realz.

https://news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/bondi-scales-back-us-justice-department-white-collar-enforcement https://www.justice.gov/ag/media/1388546/dl?inline Putin is winning so hard right now. Who knows, maybe the new government will even manage to unfreeze all those russian assets in a short while.
