A friend finally convinced me to try out Dark Souls. I’m not too far in, and I’m not having a bad time per se, but I am having a little trouble getting into it and caring about why I’m hacking and slashing everything. Maybe I just haven’t got enough lore yet. Though I do like seeing the other players’ messages and their “ghosts” running around, that’s fun.

Man, this movie has one of the best soundtracks.

I was driving through the country on a somewhat stormy day, when I happened to glance over and saw a bolt hit in the middle of a field I was next to. My immediate thought was “Oh, this is going to be LOUD.” A split second later, it was, like feel it in your chest loud. It was a such a weird physical feeling too, like a sudden buzz or tingling all over, I’m not sure how else to describe it. The cat I had with me did not like it at all, she wouldn’t stop crying for a good thirty minutes before she settled back down.

Finished Diablo 3 Season 36. I was really hoping to fully fill out the Altar of Rites this time, but for the life of me and my necromancer, I could not get Ramaladni’s Gift to drop. Oh well. This week I’ll finally be starting Diablo 4’s new season in-between Thief runs (yes, I’m still obsessed, lol).

If I’m by myself, I’m either eating or knitting. But if I’m with someone or in a theater, then nothing.

I have! It’s a really great game and I love it too. That’s probably why I’m having such a good time with Thief, since the gameplay is very similar. I’ve only really played 1 though; I did play Dishonored 2 once, but I couldn’t get into it like I did the first. I still need to play Death of the Outsider.

I’ve been absolutely obsessed with the 2014 reboot of Thief over the past couple weeks. I’m having so much fun just sneaking around and stealing stuff and finding new hidey holes lol. It’s making me really want to try out the older games. I don’t know how I slept on it for so long because it’s been great.

Last week I played through Ryse: Son of Rome, and I was pleasantly surprised in how much I enjoyed it, especially for a rather QTE heavy game.

Right now I’m working through Fobia: St. Dinfna Hotel, and man there is so much backtracking for puzzles and lockboxes and whatnot. But it’s been fun, and basically feels like a first person Resident Evil game, at least atmosphere wise.

I’m working on Diablo 4 Season 9. I wasn’t hearing great things about this season at first, so I held off for a few days until some patches came out, but I have to admit, I’m kind of having fun so far. I have an actual reason to do nightmare dungeons again, and personally, I kinda like the reliquary cosmetics this time around. I’m going with a Druid build, which is a class I honestly haven’t touched since season 1, and it’s not too bad so far.

As much as I absolutely love Lies of P, I’ve been holding off since I’ve been hearing about a lot of bugs. Sounds like I maybe need to wait for another patch, unless the patch they released a week or two ago is the only one.

Dead Space 3. Sure, it has some issues, but I didn’t realize how much others actively disliked it until I tried talking to people about it.

Edit: And the point of the post is immediately proven lol

That’s Rose Winters (Ethan’s daughter), and there’s a DLC for Village that features her that’s worth checking out!

I’m not sure, as far as I know none of the VA names have been released yet, but I bet some Capcom regulars will show up.

This looks it might be more related to Outbreak, since the (presumably) main character Grace is the daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft.

Still working through The Sinking City Remastered. I’ve become incredibly distracted by photo mode lol.

The Sinking City Remastered was released last week, so I’ve been playing that. I’m having a lot of fun with the newly added photo mode.

Started Diablo 4 Season 8, and I can’t say that I’m really into it this round. I have a laundry list of complaints, but it all really comes down to not feeling near as fun as previous seasons, and the world feels weirdly tighter than it has before? And I’m not sure exactly why.

Since I’m done with South of Midnight and it kept reminding me of Alice, I’ve been replaying Alice: Madness Returns. I both forgot how fun this game is and how horrible I am at jumping lol.

Unfortunately, they’ll just end up arresting the judges too.

Maybe one of your neighbors reported you were to fuck with you. Maybe you pissed off the wrong DHS agent or other government employee and you’re being targeted.

This is exactly what happened during the French Reign of Terror, the Salem Witch Trials, and countless other times throughout history. It’s happened before, and it will happen again. If someone doesn’t like you for whatever reason, they would now have a way to get rid of you, just by using one accusation, regardless of whether it’s true or not.

I finished South of Midnight, and overall I had a good time, although I wish it would have given some of the later game characters a little more depth. I really liked Hazel as a protagonist. I would love to play more of her, even though this does seem like a stand alone game.
