Picked up AC: Odyssey and it seems like a fun historical romp. It even has the exploration setting that removes all the random acts of violence.

I finished Disco Elysium. It seems like it is a new evolution in adventure games. It was very well done. The game definitely spoke to me on a deeper level. It helped that I was a beer or two in when I played it, and a bit deep in my winter moribundity. I didn't expect to have nearly this much in common with this down on his luck detective.

All of the recent screenshots you folks have posted basically look like spruced up spreadsheets. Is this a math forum?

Playing it, I was curious how difficult it would be to create some better storylines. It seems like it is designed to be able to create your adventures.

In Disco Elysium, I helped a young DJ find the true beats and unlocked the music. Then I danced like it was the end of times. It was cathartic. I shed a tear. Kim couldn't help but join me. I spoke to the city with my moves. Now I'm ready to solve this case.

I always balked at playing Omerta. It seemed like it was up my alley, but the reviews are pretty rough. They have made a ton of changes to Empire of Sin, so I might try that one again instead. I'd love a decent organized crime game.

I also am pretty much over the zombie game fad. Dying Light's parkour style gameplay could work well for a lot of different genres, though.

That trailer for Dying Light 2 stressed me out.

Nah, it is C. The answer is always C. I mean, he is laying on his back legs and laying down with his head, so I think that is it.

Jesus. This is sad. I mean, it isn't even for them to spend on themselves. They are supposed to buy classroom supplies? South Dakota is ranked 49th in teacher salaries.

Oh man. I just found out my age in Disco Elsysium. It took some investigation work. I regret knowing now. Let me just say that it was too close for comfort. I am shook. Does this game know me?

Sadly, or maybe appropriately, Al Franken stepped down because of his controversy. You know, instead of using **** grabbing as a springboard into the oval office. I honestly don't understand Republicanism any more. Matt Gaetz also seems to be sticking around after his gross stuff. Loke, are there any standards anymore?

My wife and mother-in-law were both died in the wool Republicans until Trump. So I guess I'm saying be patient? Maybe the Democratic party will get taken over by a reality TV star who is on record about grabbing female body parts.

I bet they both get released on the same day as Bethesda's Starfield. How much do I win?

Hah, Aubrey Plaza will be fantastic in that.

In Disco Elysium, I blew my head off as a negotiation tactic. To be fair, it was also my bedtime, but I did enjoy that it was an option. I also did some actual decent police work and was very impressed at myself for pulling it together for a few moments. Good job **** Mullen!

I would think studios would make as much from streaming as they did from dvds. It is a lot less overhead.

I'm always amazed at how people want their politicians to be consistent and immovable. That sounds like something I'd want from a Supreme Court justice, but I want my politicians to be quick to embrace change and pivot when provided with new information. Adapt and overcome instead of going down with the ship.

Ugh. That's worse than if he just said no. We were so close.

So they couldn't get Hugo Weaving to come back for the Matrix? I mean, he hasn't really aged either.

I am planning on picking it up, but won't play it until it is further along. It is definitely my jam. Battle Brothers with legs.

The article says he was taking 5 bags of heroin a day.

Steam does attempt to address this by having both an overall review and a recent review perjorative. But yeah, there are a lot of morons who don't have patience or common sense about early access games. Like, it isn't done and it may be years before it is, so chill out about the end game for a bit. 😑

I am also rereading, and enjoying book 2 right now.

Fun Fact: Pitch Black is the 3rd best Aliens movie.
