Third option is it does the bare minimum violence required to get enough resources to launch itself out into space, where it has more than enough resources and energy to expand across the system and possibly further. Leaving humanity behind on our one space rock and locking us out of every other option.

What kind of rounding has to be done to assume not using the bathroom constitutes 4 to 5 hours daily?!

I’m glad I understood after going through a good amount of schooling and having crap retail jobs that an office job was not right for me. While I believe I missed the mark slightly with construction carpenter. I’m pretty happy with my day to day.

It’s been in development for so long that Imma give it roughly the same amount of time before I purchase it. They’ll have everything sorted by then.

[insert quiet indoor hobby here] I do image editing/graphic design, origami, or work on puzzles while listening to something.

Still sad they didn’t localize the rap battle(s) for the dub. They did the laziest possible thing where they left it as is and didn’t even bother to subtitle it.

Core keeper, Webfishing, Helldivers 2, and powerwashing simulator. I’ve been in a very chill gaming mood aside from the hectic fire fights of helldivers.

I’ve been finishing up random challenges in monster hunter wilds. There’s not much left on the ‘achievable without rng shenanigans’ list for me to get, so I’ve started planning for the next one.

Metal bringer. It’s a looter rogue lite in which you play as the daughter of amazing science family whose legacy has been besmirched or something, causing you to have to get out into a world of bots that need some good 'sploding.

The game loop eventually leads to starting with a massive mech and trashing the early game. The boss designs and weapons are really nice though some of the areas give me a headache.

It’s nice to see how many of yall are quick with whatever your favorite fictional universe is…

I have never put much thought into one I’d deem as a favorite. I like a lot of games, shows, books, and such… But I don’t think I’d be able to pick just one.

As much as I love the original, I must also say for a fist fight I’d rather have a slightly more system of a down feel.

Thankfully there’s always Andre to fill in the gaps.

8bitdo in general is a good stuff. I’m about to order a few spare controllers from them for multi-player stuff.

Used vaping to quit smoking.

Weened off the nicotine then stop using the vape.

Got hit with cravings hard and dealt with them.

Been three years now. Any and all money I would have saved on cigarettes has instead funded my other half’s addiction to take out food. I’m more broke than I ever was before.

It was definitely the first persistent survival game that taught me I don’t have the time or energy for that genre.

I also dabbled in the monster hunter wilds beta. It was what I expected and I’ll be happy to play the full version when it’s released. I think I bonked every monster available, both large and small. I tried out the weapons I’m likely to use.

Gunlance felt ok, light bow gun was interesting but more complicated than I expected. Bow was mostly the same but with some friendly additions. Switch axe ended up being my favorite of the beta. That thing just hits so quickly and wounds to easily that I don’t know if they oops’d the damage on it, or if I was just getting lucky. There were times when I’d break and make wounds in such a way that the monster would be basically stunned for a decently long period of time. If I had been partied up it would have been much too efficient. The other thing about it is the mobility of certain slashes. It took a bit getting used to, but it covers a lot of ground for a heavy blade.

After all that, I discovered the capture net would give both the insects and their essences, so I ran around hunting for endemic life and found a lot of little critters I otherwise would have missed. There’s a hornet that was endemic but could also poison you!

And I spent some time fishing. They really changed it up in this one. You need to reel in the line slowly to actually entice the fish to bite. I wasn’t completely comfortable with it at the end of the beta, but it also feels like they’re going to work on it a bit more.

As for other stuff I played. I continue my usual dedication to a few missions a week in helldivers 2. It’s a very fun game made by some very dedicated folks, and I’m down to blast some things every now and then. I finally got my nerve up to continue playing satisfactory. I usually stop right around coal power because it’s at that point that you can really automate the world… It’s just the amount of math and just waiting on materials to build so you can finally get exponential with your growth. I’m still very much in that stage currently. I need to upscale everything but I’m waiting for materials and to make sure my power situation is handled before I go nuts.

This has explained the logic gates to me in a way I’d never understood before… And for that I’m glad.

It was the sheer quantity of dlc stuff along with the second one having potential performance issues that kept me way and away from it for now. I’ll check back in at a 50-90% off sale.

Baba is you. I know the game was made by people much smarter than I am, I know I’m going to get stuck chasing a bad idea for 30+ minutes…

I have just not been feeling puzzley lately.

Mostly random indie titles, such as nova drift, rollscape, and peglin.

Nova drift and peglin both recently came out of early access, both are rogue lite games that offer unique scenarios each time you play, one is a top down shmup with loads of customizations and interesting builds to try out, the other being a bit of a deck builder with interesting setups to keep the ball bouncing.

Rollscape is a relaxing random number generator with some decision making guesses along to the way to attempt to get further. It’s way too random to be truly skill based, but knowing more of the game does diminish a bit of the random.

On mobile it has been egg, inc. and idle cave miner.

Egg, inc. used to be a very player friendly idle incremental game that offered years of play time in a very relaxed setting. It didn’t require spending money on it unless you really wanted to speed things up… Until a bit ago when they took away one mission a week, which was the catch up mission players kind of need to progress and locked it behind a subscription service. I’m still playing because as much as I don’t appreciate that change, I’ve been playing long enough that I don’t need the catch up mission. I still don’t suggest it for new players though.

Idle Cave Miner is a basic incremental idle game, you set your little dudes to mine a cave and see how deep they can get. It does have a bunch of micro transactions, including premium characters that probably mine harder than the rest. I don’t really care about that though. Spending money really isn’t needed on this one, but since it’s a single dev and I’d rather not deal with ads, I’m happy to toss a few bucks to remove those and help out.

Otherwise, I’ve been enjoying helldivers 2 every couple days to keep the medals rolling in, and the samples collected. The latest patch has been quite game changing. It’s nice to have more options to handle the opponents, but I finally had to change armors as my paper thin light armor wasn’t doing the job it had been from previous versions of the game

After three and a half years of semi professional use, my ryobi impact driver has a lot of play in the shaft making it rather difficult to use and it can no longer do heavy jobs. But for the price, 3.5 years was worth it.

Plus I like obnoxious green as a color.

It’s a good time period for action rpgs. This and monster hunter wilds are looking like a ton of fun.
