Spoke too soon, just a few hours later ive been "nominated". Its like, I'm flattered that my mutuals think some of my reviews are worth praise but yeah idk I kinda dont wanna participate and I hope I dont upset them by not reciprocating, which is sort of the issue with the whole exercise isnt it

Started a replay of Disco Elysium, only just caught on to the fact that when photographing the body, Kim will mention he only has enough film for 2 pictures so he doesnt want to waste 1. All the way in the beginning, excellent foreshadowing for one of the best moments in the game

Mouthwashing really got under my skin, and considering the expectations I had, that's some mad accomplishment. Terrifying at best and yet another showcase that this team has the souce when it comes to shorter, linear horror experiences.

Reviewed it here, and happy Halloween!:

Rather enjoying Mars First Logistics so far. Quickly glanced at the backloggd page and saw someone describe it as "Death Stranding by way of Banjo and Kazooie Nuts and Bolts" and yeah, thats about the size of it really. Making contraptions to carry shit through martian terrain

Downside. Obviously you shouldnt take copious steroids or doping cause youll fuck up your health and in competition with others a level playing field makes sense. Otherwise? All is fair. Take those meds, that ozempic, that creatine, if taking a bunch of shrooms helps you quit smoking then trip balls

All gonna fucking die at some point and you want to take the longest, hardest journey to making the most of it? AND you want to give people shit for not wanting to do the same? Fuck off. Thats not to say some shortcuts shouldnt be avoided but thats cause theyre bad shortcuts or have a significant

The stupidest form of moralism is that which gets all huffy about "not taking shortcuts" when it comes to matters of personal health or development. It comes firstly from a dumb attitude of what are often disorders into indi
vidualistic personal battles but even from that lens its stupid. We're

Too ambitious for its own good. A parallel to VLR which was compelling but ultimately collapsed under its own weight, this is more like it spread itself too thin to really come together in the end. <b...

Fucking up the authority check that makes you call Kim a slur is obviously horrible, but apologizing afterwards leads to arguably one of the most heartfelt bits in the game that other playthroughs wont even see

In hindsight, maybe starting a 30+ hour goddamn game just as I got an actual job and wouldn't have as much time to game was not the smartest move but I get the feeling that even if I went through it in a week Id still think it was too bloody long. The game is 100 line btw

what is it that makes the fascists of today different from yesterday? who are they? why do they seem to love america so much? the answer is, ANGLOFASCISM. The answer is in Britain and in Austria and in Engelbert Dolfuss. lets learn
ANGLOFASCISM
In 1933, Austrian chancellor Engelbert Dolfuss, a short, generally unpopular man, founded a political party. Out of right-wing militias, traditional conservative parties, and landed estates, he put together an organisation called the Fatherland Front, which ruled the tiny, dysfunctional Republic of Austria (rechristened the Federal State of Austria) for five years until 1938, when Dolfuss’s successor Schuschnigg was removed from office during the Nazi&hellip;

Nice, it finally arrived in the mail. Its an Art Book that works as an epilogue to the incredibly underrated In Other Waters. Looking forward to going through it

Been playing 100 Line. Ive only done like 2 endings (which is still like 30 goddamned hours) but I feel like Ill have a lot to say about it when I'm done. So far I can share this stupid joke image I made as a sample

Legitimately insane how we've held onto that stupid crap since the 19th century even though its been proven over and over again that its dumb and doesnt actually help people learn. Perhaps a moot point since AI takeover is gonna fuck educational metrics forever anyways but still

Getting a job has made a few things clearer, but the one I keep coming back to is how stupid grading is. Like theres plenty of stupid metrics in jobs but when youre learning they just tell you how to do it better without a stupid arbitrary number to punish you for not getting it right the first time
