The game seems to be doing well. Deservedly so, it's a blast! Matchmaking has improved with the latest patch but occasionally some connections issues still occur. For me it's aprox. a 90% success rate, though, so that's nice

I recently bought Grindstone and it's cripplingly addictive a lot of fun! I feel like I'm not playing it properly because my impatient ass just looks at the board and immediately decides "Yeah, I don't need to think about this - my incredible skills are without fault and this is the perfect way to move." I have died many times

Probably later tonight. Yesterday was a weird one. I thought I had time to game, but somehow I didn't Hopefully, I'll get to play more today. Rightly so. It's peak horde-mode/coop shooting bliss. Such a shame that my gaming friends aren't interested...which is weird because they usually are up for games like these Edit: Oh and I read some news that claim this game is "pay to win"... Now you can be against battlepasses, mtx, etc - fine by me. I hate 'em, too, and while I'm also not fond of their existence in Helldivers 2, they are stupidly fair. You get one free Warbond (i.e. battlepass) to fill out and will acquire 750 Supercredits (i.e. premium currency you can buy with real money). There's also one premium Warbond which cost 1000 SC. I've played only 4 missions so far and found 20 SC, so given enough time and exploration I will easily able to afford the premium Warbond (which comes with another 300SC). If the influx of free Warbonds is consistent, I don't see the need to spend any money at all. Still: In the end, stuff like this sucks when it's a game you bought...but this seems to be done in a way that isn't too predatory.

This is fire! Haven't played much but done a few missions with randos and had a blast! Arrowhead put so much thought into all the mechanics. For example, when you use the ping system to call out something your trooper adds the cardinal direction. A rando marked a bug and said something like "enemy, south-west". I immediately looked at the compass and found the bug in no time. So simple, so effective! Quite a shame that matchmaking is currently fucked. A beta probably would've helped...

Back home from a very short day at work, curry is on the stove and I got nothing else to do today (at least I keep telling myself that ). Ready to...yes, this is happening...dive in. GET IT?

I should stop spending money

Eh, this will be changed after some backlash. But right now this is the least of their problems. Fair enough

The honours of spreading the news. You're usually on top of these things I always thought their acquisitions in gaming are a kind of "look at our portfolio now" situation... I posted this a few times and I feel it's still apt: But then again...Xbox/MS aren't really doing much

@Julius Are you gonna do the honors? Or are you also waiting for official confirmation? If the rumours going around right now are true, it's gonna be one of the greatest shifts in video game history. I'll believe it when it's official

get! It's fun Thanks for reading. Bye!

My goodness, that first guitar riff attack... See the sunset The day is ending Let that yawn out There's no pretending Can't wait to see Troy Baker's performance. Loved him in the first game and he seems to be on top again this time around!

Yes please. PS6 Pro in 2032

I'm all-in, of course. But 2025? It's so far away...

I just watched the January Sale Trailer and man...I'm tempted

Thanks for the heads-up @Julius, but it's not the right time for me

I traveled alone once (to Bucharest) and I enjoyed it a lot. My next travels will be with a group again, which I don't mind, but maybe in the summer I'll go somewhere by myself Yeah, same here. Have been single for a few years now and figured out how to be happy with that only last year. Funnily enough, I have met a lady a few weeks ago and we currently have kind of a fling. Definitely. It's a shame that most of my friends aren't really up for it, though.

JEEZ, OK. I get it The idea is somehow wild to me Yeah, I can see all the benefits of that. But to be fair, most of my friends don't like to watch movies in cinemas anyways, and I just recently met someone who does and we enjoy the same kind of movies. I like watching movies and talk about 'em with her Poor Things, however, is not her style, so...

For PC/Steam Deck: For PS5:

Sweet. I'll know tomorrow if a friend has time to watch a preview of All of Us Strangers next Sunday. If not, I'll probably have to wait a few weeks before I see it. Thinking about getting a ticket for Poor Things on Friday. If I do, it'll be the first time I'll go to the cinema by myself.

The 22nd of February can't come soon enough.

I'll blame you, if I don't

Death Stranding 2 information is all I need right now.
