Honestly, might be nostalgic for guys, but as a girl who was playing games in this era, it made me feel like I wasn’t a part of the culture, rarely if ever were there ads marketed towards me, but man were there a lot of half naked ladies. Glad we don’t do this as much, but god this caused a lot of younger girls to feel ashamed of playing games “for boys”.

I’m replaying Omori since I was on laptop/switch friendly games for the past two weeks visiting family, but I didn’t water the flowers my first playthrough so I’m here for the good good ending.

I need to go back to Detention. I was really enjoying it but I think something spooked me too close to bedtime and I hadn’t picked it up since.

I never played the first one past the tutorial because I was younger and it got too scary. I had a forced PC upgrade and got the game for free and probably would have finished by now, but the whole sounds not syncing up is ruining my immersion, so I guess I’ll wait a few more patches.

I know and I’ve downloaded it and tried it so many times over the years, but can’t make it past the tutorial without getting frustrated.

I could never get into it either. People are so so obsessed with this game. They tell you to never look anything up, etc. I’ve tried it on mouse and keyboard, I’ve tried it on controller and the gameplay does not feel right, so I’ve never left the ground tutorial area.

I’m glad dogs are so normalized, this isn’t even a thing anymore. They’ll be just chilling next to their owner.

My pup also got Lyme disease. I thought it was the end, but she recovered so well and we got a few more years together. She was an English bulldog, so a few more years for them is a lot. I know bloodwork is a pain and pricey, but absolutely monitor his kidneys over time, keeping on top of kidney function with Lyme is super helpful. Even when the kidney values are low, there’s prescription diets that can help with everything. (I worked in vet medicine too, so know these things.)

There was actually a whole thing going around in like November/December in the service industry in NYC where they’d be treated for pneumonia, but were told it wasn’t quite pneumonia. They’re pretty convinced at this point it was Covid. One of my friends got hit again in 2021 and said the symptoms were damn near the same.

I worked in vet medicine and this is such a good idea for when you’re wrangling a dog or cat for diagnostics.

I never finished Myst as a kid because my dad was so big on horror games, I assumed Myst would get spooky. Also link to bundle. https://www.humblebundle.com/games/myst-more-redux-30-years-myst

Honestly it’s been more incentive for me to move away from the AAA stuff and lean way more indie. They have demos, deep sales, and they make an effort to engage with the community. It is a bummer the lack of demos available on consoles though.

I love Nathan and think he can do damn near anything, he was just everyone’s choice for Hal, it’s wild he ended up as Guy.

We may just have very different tastes in gaming, but there’s really no shortage of solid game demos out there, they’re just usually for the indie stuff.

Imagine finally getting Nathan playing a Green Lantern after being Hal’s dream actor for decades and then he ends up playing Guy.

When my wishlist is mostly indie stuff that drops to $1.99, who am I to say no?

Holy shit, that’s basically once per season. I feel bad if I go a month. And in the summer, two weeks feels like a lot.

Yeah, it’s hard to find some of the little random communities (that were my lil spaces to contribute), but I’m enjoying the content much more as a whole. It definitely feels like conversations are stuff you can have, even if you see a post like 2 hours later or whatever.

I’m super happy this exists too. I’m still bouncing around with apps, but I’m enjoying myself and it definitely does feel like a better space.

Oh totally, there’s new stuff popping up everyday, it’ll get there for sure. I definitely enjoy browsing stuff here more, kind of is already giving shades of the things I used to enjoy about reddit.
