My thoughts on the Switch 2 after a month of using it are that's it's meh.

While it's very nice that it is stronger than the Switch 1, it doesn't yet have the library of it's own to support it. A lot of what I've been playing are Switch 1 games.

As I continue to learn EU5, I keep learning all of the ways it's weirdly broken and exploit filled.

For example, I'm playing an England into Great Britain run, and I've already done it by 1370. Mostly because the AI is dumb. Dumber than even EU4 too.

I'm so far behind on the Trails series. I still haven't finished Daybreak 1, and Horizon came out a few days ago.

I don't even know if I want to go further, considering Daybreak 2 is apparently a slog.

Finally got the STK-2, my first Tier 11 in World of Tanks! :D

I'm listening to a new podcast today. I'm listening to Failure to Launch and their series on the Mittlewerk death factory that produced the V-2 Rocket.

The series is very good and very informitive.

Finally getting close to abandoning Spotify completely. Only have to find a few more albums I listen to regularly.

It was 62 degrees yesterday. Now it's below freezing and gusty winds.

I seem to have bigger problems with shifting weather and temps like this then when things are more consistant. It's one of the more interesting problems I've run into since moving down here.

Just realized that the Star Wars sequel trilogy is now old enough for people to have nostolgia for.

Maybe that's why I keep seeing sequel defenders in my discover feed. FYI Bluesky algorithm, you'll never convince me that the sequels were ever good.

Finally got around to porting the track files for the Stellaris soundtrack, of which I bought when the game originally came out, to my phone to listen to.

Now I'm just chilling and sipping on my coffee to it.

Starting the new year by listening to music, drinking tea, and reading some fanfiction.

So, as much as I did last year.

Very much enjoyed this audiobook, The Verge by Patrick Wyman. 9/10

If you like history books, I can easily reccomend it. It's very much up there with Hero of Two Worlds by Mike Duncan in terms of history audiobooks for me.

Just finished Tyrion Cuthbert: Attorney of the Arcane last night, and I've decided, why the heck not? A visual novel I've been looking at went on sale, so now I'm going to play that.

Time for a freaking Idea Factory otome game to melt my brain to. Guess I'm on a VN kick now.

Finally got inspired enough to try and get back into Phantasy Star Online 2.

Last time I tried playing with any seriousness was back with PSO2: Episode 4 on PSO2 Tweaker back in the day on my crummy laptop. So, I guess I'll see how I like the New Genesis content.

Eating breakfast to the Command and Conquer: Red Alert 1 soundtrack is certainly an experience.

Welp, I did it. I bought a Switch 2 before the prices rise due to RAM costs.

Time will tell if this was a mistake.

How my latest game of EU5 is going.

I don't think this was what the developers intended, but ok.

*Glances at local weather*

Okay, I know the answer is climate change but why in the actual heck is it going to be 2 degrees tomorrow morning? It's the mountains of North Carolina, not Newfoundland.

Clearly, this arctic pluge is an act of war against me in particular.

After two weeks of grinding, I finally got the Jagd.Panzer E-100 in World of Tanks! :D

Finally got some wins today. I'm happy.

Team quality has dropped significantly lately. I haven't won a single battle this morning. Guess I'll go back to reading.

In all my time reading internet novels and fanfictions, one thing I will never understand are the people who go into an overpowered main character story, then come out of it complaining that the main character is a "mary sue" or any number of other such complaints.

Holiday Ops in World of Tanks has begun, and I've been busy bullying the new Chinese heavy tank with my arty.

At this rate, I'll have enough converted exp for the Jagd.Panzer E-100 in no time.

I've seen the number of Type-71's in pubs double this morning.

All I can say is that they don't seem to know how to use it to it's maxium effectiveness like I do. Then again, I've bern playing the thing since it first came out in Blitz.
