Started Outer Worlds 2 (using Gamepass) and played through the tutorial. It was great. The graphics are improved from the original. So far so good. I don't think it will win you over if you didn't like the original, but it seems like a solid sequel so far.

I signed up for a full Ironman with my wife. I did one in 2019 in Santa Rosa and it was pretty miserable. It took me 15 hours. I had a good swim, an ok bike, but terrible run. My stomach was a mess and I walked most of it. Anyways, my wife watched me suffer and has been bugging me for the last 6 years to do one with her. So we signed up for Ironman California, which is in Sacramento. It is still a year away. We volunteered at the race this year and paddle boarded for the swimmers in support. The swim looks amazing, it is downstream and should be fast. It also looks like a fun run snaking around the Capitol Mall. But now that I've paid for it, I'm in training mode, and that is a different lifestyle. I'm not out of shape, but I'll be pretty much doubling my training hours over the next year. It should be fun. I hope I can nail the nutrition this time.

The original had a fantastic romance between Pavarti and that other lady, so I guess you just mean your PC can't be a horndog with multiple companions. Oh no.

Jesus. The complete waste of resources is what I think should be unifying people here. These guys are paid by taxpayer money to do what, exactly?

I got my wisdom teeth out around 35 years old and it was not a fun time. Good luck with the recovery.

I'm pretty busy. Maybe in November. 2026

Huh, bummer. I wonder how much of an end the game has? It looks like it has a pretty solid foundation. It's surprising they couldn't get someone to pick it up. I don't blame a solo dev for walking away though. There is a reason game development teams are huge nowadays.

I enjoyed that John Candy doc as well. The other doc I watched recently was My Mom Jayne, which is Mariska Hargitay's investigation into her mom. It was phenomenal. I expected a nice feel good story about Mariska learning about her mom who died when she was only 3. But instead I got this incredibly complex family story filled with all sorts of revelations. It was really just jaw droppingly good. I knew very little about the whole story, but it was super engaging.

Starcom: Unknown Space - I grabbed this on GoG for cheap and it has been fun. It is lot like Star Control. Less silly, but still has lots of weirdos to meet and planets to explore. It's good. I never played the first one, I guess this is a sequel, but they don't seem too connected.

There is a story, and it does lead to some conflict with these robot things. But it is mostly exploring and resource management.

I definitely agree with Obsidian being the S-tier games. Bit surprised the Pathfinder games aren't lower, and Wasteland is a bit low for my tastes. But overall I agree with most of it. It would be interesting to see this with the FPS RPG's like Skyrim, Kingdom Come, and Avowed.

Yeah, majestic grudge watches every episode for some reason.

It's a Tyrantifa Rex, be careful.

Rings of Power is great, so you should give it a try.

WoT was less than zero, so I don't know what that does to your math. Negative number x 100%?
