Reviewing my conversation with the stranger I follow on instagram (in a totally normal, not weird way) like chess analysis.

1, Best move ★, communicated that I enjoyed my time with her, and wished her well

2, Inaccuracy ?!, kinda dorky but it’s honest with myself and that’s ok

3, Blunder ??, I overcorrected and now she probably thinks I talk like a Marvel character.

I just finished Roadwarden the other day, my first text based game. I can say that it’s probably the most memorable and encapsulating game I’ve played in a long time. It’s about being a Roadwarden, a sort of courier who alongside delivering messages and goods, patrols the roads between villages, escorts civilians and laborers, and takes on the local monsters if they’re able. It gives you an incredible amount of choices, and an incredible amount of consequences to them. I got what I consider to be a very bad ending, but the game offers 3 classes, each with a different level of insight on the lore of the world, encouraging replays, so I’m confident that on my next run I can get a better ending. The gameplay is extremely enjoyable, like reading a great book (in my case, about being broke in fantasy Scotland) that you can interact with. The monster encounters made me feel anxious, the travel time and day counters, some very core aspects of the game, reflected the deceptively time consuming experience of playing. The amount of times this game has kept me up late and reminded me of the constant passage of time is harrowing, but an incredibly compelling experience. I could go on and on about the music and how it gives me heart palpitations but I would just recommend listening to Pelt of the North on YouTube. If any of this has sounded fun OR stressful to you, I highly recommend playing. Good luck.

American Dad isn’t actually a sequel to Family Guy, the creators intended it to be a separate parallel story with connections to the original! It’s recommended to watch them in order to fully understand the story

step one: replace entire personality with open, festering wound

step two: contort absolutely all stimuli in my environment to relate to the my wound in some manner, ideally one which justifies random acts of unbridled aggression and vengeance

step three: marry a girl with generational wealth

I just beat DS1 the other day! I really enjoyed it and was happy that I was able to make it through. My first playthrough of it was on switch and the frame rate was holding me back slightly. I was stuck on Sen’s fortress when I left off originally. It was tough, but completely doable. I will admit that I farmed humanity very often but that’s only because I’m bad!

If you have ever wanted a gaming challenge, I WOULD recommend it, however I can totally see why this game was known as the super difficult hardcore game. Just remember to conserve your materials, kindle every bonfire (requires humanity) and never give up.

Definitely one of my new favorites. We’ll see how Dark Souls 2 treats me.

I’ve almost discovered what makes knights so badass

I just beat Lunacid. I still have a whole area to discover and dozens of weapons/spells to find. I left one of the optional mini bosses alone and I’m pretty sure I have several side quests to continue with. The game is REALLY good. There are some pretty interesting mechanics like video effects, a difficulty slider, turning off auto run (to make it scarier), real world moon cycle effects, a limb targeting system that changes how you can deal with some of the enemy encounters, and a pretty robust class system (even though I went quality and just evenly leveled across the board). Every game has something to be desired but my only real gripes with it is that the turning speed is a little slow on controller but you can just bump your sensitivity to compensate, and if you’re playing keyboard and mouse it’s literally a non issue. If you’ve ever been interested in playing a first person arpg dungeon crawler, I HIGHLY recommend it.

I’ve been reading Berserk since the end of December (the 28th) and I just caught up tonight (5 am lol). I loved the whole thing, it’s genuinely beautiful despite the horrors it’s known for and I honestly feel kinda sad that there’s nothing left to read. I wonder if I’ll stick to this as it finishes in the next decade or so.

I hated when “doing a bit” made it into the mainstream vernacular because no one was ever doing any bits they were either lallygagging, riffing, or engaging in horseplay. You fucking posers
