Heh, that Shadow's Kiss vampire/supernatural mmo kickstarter is down to it's last 30 hours. Apparently they've been working on it for 2 years and were seeking extra funding to take it across the finish line. So far they've had 740 pledges and raised just a pip over $70,000. I'll admit, I decided to throw in a small bit on the offchance it might turn out interesting. I have a hankering for something to satisfy my old VtM Bloodline desires.

I agree it was pretty neat and refreshing, but just almost every good scene seemed like a disjoint idea that had to be stitched together. To be fair, that was pretty much the Dr Strange comics for any "major" storyline. Lots of disjointed acid trips tied together in a rather loose framework, that had very little connection to reality because it was magic and weird dimensions rather than sci-fi space that people kind of understood.

Tried a short run in Shadow of War to get back into after not playing for a month. God damn it was frustrating. Every freaking time I try to get somewhere I got ambushed by an orc captain who was immune to nearly every single attack I've got. And when I do get the upper hand, I kept getting interupted by normal orcs..so when I try targetting the normal orcs..the freaking auto target would then pick the captain who is IMMUNE to the freaking attack rather than the orcs that keep hitting me.

For the other slice of things... For those not following, both Mulvaney and English showed up as the acting director of the CFPB this morning. English was promoted to the position by Richard Corday hours before he resigned. Leandra English has filed a temporary restraining order on Trump and Mulvaney. WashingtonPost - Control of the CFPB
