hey!
so its been a while. fact is, i think i started this blog during a hyperfixation and the "steam" has ran out. some self esteem issues too. but lets do a little update.
ive been learning how to drive a car. i failed once when i was 17(fuck manual transmission) and yeah. im doing automatic now, and its good. im actually super stoked for my lessons. learned that yes, i do have adhd. cuz yeah. czech government, dont read this, but maybe i shouldnt be behind a wheel(hihi)
i also treated myself. ever since i was like, 17, i was obsessed with retro video games. and of course, the dream was. damn. what if i could play the entire ps2/gamecube library on a handheld? for years, you would have these lackluster devices that could only play upto ps1, then upto n64, then dreamcast, and then finally, we got ps2 capable devices. and so i got one. i actually got three of them, holy shit. i bought myself a 40xxv, for 4:3 systems, and for GB/GBC, my brother got me a 34XXSP for christmas, which i use only for GBA, and finally, the big daddy on top, Odin 2. with 12GB ram. was an insane deal, got it from germany lol.
my backlog is actually decreasing. ive beaten metroid zero mission, the first summon night swordcraft stories, drill dozer.. and my new beloved survival horror game, parasite eve. goddamn it. that series makes me so sad. i still need to play the sequels,, but from my brief research... they.. fucked it. all that was unique about the first game kinda gets destroyed. and so i feell.. well. defeated.
ive been watching a shit ton of movies. there is too many to count. i had... well. ig scifi might be my main genre interest? nah, pointless to think of it that way. anyway, i had a scifi kick. and so i watched like, 60 movies during November-March. maybe ill do a post one day, talking about all that ive seen, whats unique about them and stuff. hehe.
right now im doing xmen 97, again. you know, this year more than the last, i feel like a boomer. i feel like im constantly reminded that yes, in the past, companies, when they didnt have the power they have now, they genuinely tried stuff. to make consumers happy. but now it feels like stuff is exclusively made for profit. i know thats how it always was, even in the 2000s. but look at big box pc games for example. with every single game, and software, and hardware, you got a quick start guide. and those things were huge. because they wanted to you to use their stuff. and have a good experience. so, somebody sat down, and wrote all the posssible shit that could go wrong. nowadays its like, you get something, and its a lottery.
god, that reminds me of the washing machine kerfuffle. for the whole month of february, i was replacing washing machines. i tried 4 of them!!!! in the end i solved it, but. im skipping a bunch of the story lol. but, that is the braindump.
so yeah. im gonna start playing illusion of gaia now. ive played it once on the snes mini, but i forgot the plot. and the plot is the coolest part of that game. so i wanna replay it. also, i need to play the american mcgee alice series, soon. but im jumping around again. hihi.
well. hope the next post wont take another three months. or was it two? i dont know. byeeee. love ya
