Coming back to silent protagonists. The one that worked surprisingly well was the player character in Defiance. You had 0 agency and were just following orders, but because even in quite a few cutscenes your character was kinda silently looming, it worked out really well as you being the leg breaker who got things done.

6 wet leopard growls, 1 laughter like a wet leopard growl 3 wet growls that reminded the protagonist of a leopard, 1 leopard growl, 1 he chuckled a wet leopard chuckled 1 leopard purr 1 wet leopard purr 1 frothing wet leopard purr I may have missed some of my notes All these describe the sounds space wolves do, similar to the hmm Henry Cavil does in the Witcher

I got through that terrible Abnett There Are No Wolves On Fenris debacle just because a friend dared me to count the number of times he used the phrase "wet leopard growl".

Necropolis was a good book. And I think the fact that the book about the fall of Calth basically is a copy of that style, shows how popular it was. (Also that to get quality into the Horus heresy, Abnett had to copy the style of one of his old books)

Gaunt's Ghosts should probably have stopped with the third book. But it went on for another three and another three. And some characters get killed off and others have their personal story arc resolved, because personal story arcs can only last so many books. And then the characters are no longer interesting and you read the books out of habit.

Melkathi is known to be an overly critical grumpy person Last 40K books I really enjoyed were the Calpurnia ones.

Abnett has that issue with every book series it seems. Even Gaunts Ghosts, if you ignore the characters who turn generic ****bags, everyone else turns generic awesome veteran guardsman

What flooring did you do? Laminate is relatively easy, though of course with time errors might show. Especially in warmer climates. Any flooring is tough on the knees. I guess kneepads can make you a bit more comfortable, but they won't change the fact you are kneeling for hours

Watching Asteroid City. It has such Fallout vibes.

@Mamoulian War Have you told people about the Ancient Enemy giveaway yet?

I managed to get through the zombie infected fishing village with two characters. It was one of the best done lovecraftian villages in any game. But the gameplay *shudder* The demon infected motel I never got past. Just couldn't force myself. If they turned it into a Netflix show, I'd watch it.

And because it is Sabin, that does sound about right.

My job here is done

Tourist couple walks past a graffiti of Jinx. He: "That's Lara Croft." I don't see much of a future for that relationship.

Final Fantasy Legend II Final Fantasy VI Final Fantasy VII Is my order.

Saints Row 2 had an interesting start with the jail break / trial. It really set up the Boss as a character. SR3's start was just over the top action without helping make you care for the characters. I went through the start because yay character creation with tons of options. Not because I cared. New SR I got a chuckle out of the future boss being just a ****y idiot basically.

Truth

Saint's Row isn't a bad game. It just isn't Saint's Row. The boss is still a fun, homicidal maniac. The rest of the gang still is dull. Shaundy was no more special than Kev in the remake.

If she hasn't played it yet, we know the bodysnatchers have invaded.

I was expecting you to try Little Kitty Big City or Ratopolis to be honest.

Finished Fae Tactics. Seems I didn't unlock all content, so may reload before the ending and farm a bit with certain characters to get at least one extra mission I missed.

But there is no gravity in space. HOW CAN THE DAGGERS FALL?!?

There you are walking into an encounter, and suddenly you realize the opponents are Earth, Wind and Fire

I wonder if modders will be able to add planets. Also, are those 1000 planets procedurally generated or where they generated then populated by hand with stuff?
