There are only four circles in this picture... and none of them touch.

Did you kill your mother? I actually managed to pull off a non-kill run through. Well, non drinking blood from the npcs that is. I slaughtered a bunch of bosses and mooks.

Wrapped up Vampyr, it was an interesting attempt, lots of atmospheric and good moments but it's not one that will actually call out for many re-plays. Had a few standard gothic twists and turns, and some unexpected ones. The critical paths of killing people or not and how things changed from that was quite well done, along with the tying in morality and xp earning. Finding out details and secrets of npc's life actually made them worth more xp if you did decide to drain them of blood... but also makes them a bit more "human" rather than walking bags of blood and xp.

Made a bit over £700 with flogging off those old toys of mine. Then wandered into Marks & Sparks to check out some food shopping on the way back, sawy they were doing a Wine of The Day thing, and they had Magnum's of Port on sale with 1/3rd off. So groovy, treated myself. First time I'd seen a full Magnum of Port.

Hey, how much did you see us complaining when Errol Flyn and the Yanks won Borneo in WW2 regardless of how few Americans were there compared to the British, or U571 captured an enigma machine... or Mel Gibson impregnated the English Queen for Scotland... Hollywood and the movie machine love to play around with history regardless. It's part and parcel. Even with the "true stories".

Faith in humanity restored. I just saw a little old lady help a teenager with an iphone across the road.

Puttering around with Yakuza 0 a bit. I do have to say, trying to play some of the mini-games with a keyboard and mouse is incredibly painful. Also have to get back to play through the last half of Vampyr. Life disrupted my gameplay the other month and I haven't been in the right mood for gothic vampire stuff.
