"Yes," I lie. "Always."

Cold's seeping in through the walls and flaring up everything in my body that hurts. Agonizing, but dunno what to really do about this. HVAC's clearly doing *something* but there's an ambient temp that drops no matter what.

I have gone back to Hytale three (3) times today after closing the game completely. I'm into this, big time, and they have a hit on their hands. Amazed that this is the worst the game will ever be.

My 30 minute mark impression: this game feels like Elder Scrolls Oblivion? Same sense of wonder in exploration. Initial thoughts are that this is next generational for this entire genre, feels magnificent.
