VIntage Story one of the coziest games around.

Stremio-well

Yawn - would be interesting to see alternate reality Yahtzee review it when it comes out. I can already hear him complaining about “yet another indie life simulator” or some such.

Vintage Story, on a good server, lots of fun! Haven’t really been playing anything else lately.

Just cancelled my XBox Ultimate Game Pass…bunch of nonsense.

Literally just a rant on Zero Punctuation about “AC” games - Assassin’s Creed, Animal Crossing, Armored Core, I forget the list. (Also Asheron’s Call I guess)

The annoying one is Frostbite, especially on some story missions where you keep getting it while the characters blab on and on. Other than that i’ve either run thru a steam vent, broken my lags boosting wrong, or sometimes sandstorm lung damage.

Also read about the spacesuit thing just today. The planet thing at least would’ve made more sense to all the spacesuit bits. It’s pointless and a bit confusing now, I just ignore it and repair whatever damage I receive which the spacesuit article made it sound like that is intended. The little hazard UI thing is so bad, and why doesn’t the aid section use the same icons as the status section. Hate having to dig around to find the right treatment in my inventory (slowly just grabbing snake oil whenever i find it)

Ah well still enjoying it at around 100 hours played, but you can see where they’ve had to cut back on systems all over the place.

That link just seemst to be a mastadon feed and I cna’t seem to get any info about the engine from there.

My google news feed is like all Starfield now - getting ridiculous and i’m expecting by tomorrow will be like “Should you make french toast and eat it while playing Starfield?”

I just know what she’s saying too “we you have a free moment i need to talk to you”

They do for some, I think it’s to avoid unwanted AI interactions if something happens inside the house.

Sniping pirates and leaving them sitting in odd poses is oddly sad. Sometimes they freeze in place sitting on a couch or whatever. Low G has some weird stuff going on when you kill someone too, although watching dead bodies slowly float down is a neat touch.

I have an XBox One S (and a PC) - really hits home when in Game Stop with my kids and they were looking around (mainly for figures and such), and i’m like “there’s nothing for me here”. Of course I haven’t bought a physical PC title in over 10 years now that I think of it. I feel for the shop owners, they haven nothing for me to buy and I used to like going to shop around. Come to think of it I used to go to book stores quite often too, but not since i got my first kindle.

I did recently re-buy an Xbox 360 and it is kind of nice to browse second hand shops and such and just pickup a game that I can just play without internet etc.

Ah i see ignore my other comment - didn’t realize synology did remote backup as well as storage.

I usually try and at least look on other sites first, Amazon’s prices aren’t necessarily the best (in fact it’s usually guaranteed that they aren’t) and it’s hard to know what you’re getting. For somethings though it’s fine like phone cases etc; stuff you would kind of expect to be garbage anyways and it’s often hard to find the exact things in a local store.

There’s just enough ok shows on Prime to watch as well, it’s like they know exactly what they can get away with.

(Now their stack tv in Canada is basically useless garbage, page after page of episodes that “aren’t available right now”…so why show them then)

But…Facebook isn’t dead. I mean it’s dead to me, but it’s still going quite strong.

I get some of the criticisms of his videos, but people who have a major hate on for him kind of amuse me - like he as done more to help more people than most of us ever will and I kind of feel like most of the haters haven’t done much for anyone else themselves. Also if my kids are going to end up looking up to someone in this world, there are far far worse youtubers and influencers they could be inspired by.

I’ve personally been fascinated by the get money->give it away->get more money->Give it away content engine he’s produced.
