People ask me if I sleep late. I wake up at 7:30 in Skyrim, so I am up before the kids wake up at 8:00...

Now I picture gamers ragequiting the game and the devs making a video that goes out to all the gamers' mamas' mamas where they apologize a trillion times for making gamers cry.

Before I went to the supermarket, I noticed Hurly got his first kill in Encased. I come back from the supermarket and the Encased devs brought out a HotFix. If the two are related, then wow, they are really fast.

At least you own Titan Quest 4. Nobody else does.

Titan Quest Anniversary Edition and Jagged Alliance 1 Gold Edition free on Steam for a week.

The game UI is a esoteric way to look at the world 😛

There always has been propaganda. Hell, Uncle Scrooge trains children to believe that rich people are rich because they deserve to be, not because they got lucky and were born into a rich family, and that a rich person will when it comes down to it do the right thing. In the end a child might even be predisposed to believe in trickle down economics 😛

I somehow missed these. They are VR, so it doesn't matter

Ech, all them U-tubers farm views by crying about how wimin, and wokeness and whatever are ruining gaming. It's the thing to do as a tuber these days. Even if they have no clue what they are talking about or what online culture they in turn are contributing to. Trailers and preview videos can be awesome and the game can still end up an Evil Genius 2. Trailers and stuff can be utter garbage and you can still get a Saints Row 3. And right now we aren't even that far with the kotor remake. Some twit making a video out of reading twitter in the end is just that, a twit reading twitter.

I replayed Kotor. Never replayed Kotor2. I found it to be trying too hard to be profound.

And the party reactions to the plot twist were fun. The writers threw it at you as the super important revelation that defines the whole game, and the majority of npcs in your party had the exact opposite reaction, so it prevented the scene from becoming cringy like so many super hero stories "Oh, wow the bad guy is your step brother who hates you because you got more attention blah blah". It was one of those games where the writers weren't trying too hard to be super serious writers and just ran with it. I think it is what makes it Bioware's best game.

You could always play Majesty or Mordheim or Troubleshooter until you are better

My two big issues with Skyrim now are: 1) who to marry, since I'd like the children to have two parents and not be left so much time with housecarl nannies. 2) how to split my holdings between them fairly. The house in Solitude is probably the most important property, being as it is in Solitude, near the Blue Palace and next door to the emperor's cousin. Windhelm has symbolic value and is also a port and the link to Solstheim and the manor there. Whiterun is strategically placed. Riften is a port. Markarth has the mines. Then there are the three homesteads which should grow into villages by the time the girls inherit them... Doh client showed up. Have to interrupt the important musings for work.

They'll do a Linux exclusive to spite everyone except you 😛

Yeah, monitoring your vital signs has become a full time occupation ever since you mentioned I may have to take care of your kids if something were to happen to you.

In the very random gaming news section: @Hurlsnot died at least 3 times already playing Encased.

Yeah, you could theoretically go to Who's Online, click Full List and filter it by Members. Then for example you'd get Bruce reading the Food thread 6 minutes ago (as I see while I am posting). So if anyone has been looking at a thread you are about to lock in the last couple of minutes they could theoretically be posting. But with a long reply that could be longer, so there isn't too much point checking. How many minutes would a moderator have to then wait to have given people a reasonable time to post? Because this tiny post took 7 minutes. On the other hand, since the "locking this" post comes first, and whoever is typing at the time should get a notification that a new post has appeared in the discussion they are posting in, they could be given a small window (30 seconds? Dunno, someone else do the haggling) to see that post and copy whatever they have been typing. Eh, hasn't happened to me in ages, and when it does it gives me something to tease the moderators with.

Trying Hard West. Having to enter the game options to enable the "experimental" feature to be able to save the game is among the most ridiculous things I have encountered in gaming.

No hard feelings. And as proof, I will tell you that Road 96 was also in my discovery queue, which could be more to your liking.

I am looking through my discovery queue instead of getting work done, and I have to wonder, why did nobody post here last month that Boyfriend Dungeon was released on Steam? The store description: Date your weapons! Romance swords, daggers, and polearms to level them up in this “shack-and-slash” dungeon crawling adventure. I feel this forum is really not keeping up with gaming news.

I finished both seasons of Kingdom (the Korean zombie show) and watched the movie Kingdom - Ashin of the North, which I guess does the character background for Ashin so the audience is prepared for season 3.

Did games under her watch not produce enough DLC?

It's the Hearthfire DLC. Also the awful scripting of NPC routines in Bethesda games, that makes them get lost and walk out of towns and off into the sunset.
