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

Random video game news... the critical eyes have it
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.

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

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.

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.

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

What are you Playing Now? - Games don't make you violent, lag does
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.

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?

Did you play in the time when orks had to roll for each mob before battle to see if they were sober enough to show up?

In the 80s Blood Axe Orks could get human mercenary mobs who were Imperial Guard units dressed up as mercenaries so the Imperium could deny involvement and the Orks wouldn't know they were being manipulated.

Update: He broke his heel. Doctors are waiting to see if the swelling goes down by itself and if he may not need surgery.

In 40k, even the one xenos is stretching the plausible. In the olden days, before the lore got fleshed out and altered into what is now, a couple of aliens would have been easier to justify. I would have liked to have seen a squat, a ratling, or an ogryn among the companions.
