Bom, uma ideia que vinha me comendo espaço no cérebro desde o ano passado finalmente saiu do papel: comecei uma newsletter sobre tradução de videogame.

A quem se interessar: traduzindovideogame.ghost.io

You know a game is good when what you disliked disappears from memory, haha.
I remember I didn't like Apocalypse as much, despite the QoL, but don't remember why exactly.

The rent situation in Portugal

Why I think rent in Portugal will keep going up, and what I think is causing it.

I only wish SMT4's map were as fully-featured as 4A. Finding some places there, if you forgot where they are and know nothing about Tokyo, is a nightmare.

I guess my idea of writing down my thoughts on paper as I play RPGs is working, because I can see here where some of my original distaste for dungeon crawlers came from.

Loke @lokeloski.bsky.social · 17h

Probably that's how things worked when the game was originally released, I'd say. I'm very used to having maps, don't really enjoy memorizing dungeon layouts.
The remasters play great though, and the game isn't bad, it just get a tad bit repetitive after a point.

I spent a few weeks without playing Ys 2, came back today and... I'm not feeling it anymore. It's good that the game is as short as it is because, after a while, all you do is walk from one place to another through annoying maps while trying to figure out what to do next. It gets a bit tiring.

Pareceu uma realidade alternativa onde o Roberto Bolaños foi capturado pelos EUA e obrigado a fazer programa de humor para latinos segundo o padrão televisivo norte-americano.

Loke @lokeloski.bsky.social · 1d

Difícil articular bem o que senti [?!], mas acho que é tipo: parece que entenderam a fórmula que o programa seguia, mas não entenderam o porquê de ser engraçado. Só fizeram um copy-paste, e parece que tentaram empurrar o humor pra cima dos "cosplays" e do "sotaque engraçado".
Sei lá. Foi bizarro.

Loke @lokeloski.bsky.social · 1d

Vi um vídeo com a reinterpretação do SNL sobre Chaves e achei... bizarro? Não necessariamente ofensivo, mas meio estereotipado. Eu sinceramente não consegui rir.
O sotaquezinho forçado foi foda também, e acho que só entendeu alguma coisa do que tava acontecendo quem já conhecia Chaves.

Playing the 3DS and the Vita with glasses made me notice a weird effect.

Just installed Pretendo on the 3DS. Not that I plan on playing stuff online or anything, but it might be useful in the future.
Also installed NetPass, because I don't think there are that many people walking around with a 3DS to make SpotPass work as it did 10 years ago.

Life is hard, stuff takes time, plans don't work out, the sun is trying to kill you, do not talk shit about younger generations.

I wrote about how Hades II is a good game that left me cold and wanting despite its abundance of Content.

Hades II feels like Purgatory

Hades But More is just about the least interesting thing Supergiant could have put out, and it being a solidly good game doesn't change that.

A fábrica clandestina fazendo bebida adulterada em SP usava etanol pra falsificar as bebidas, só que o etanol que eles compravam tava adulterado com metanol.

There's like, ONE fly, that's been inside the apartment for days, and it's driving me insane. It's apparently immune to any kind of poison I use, and it keeps doing fly-bys [bies? no, that doesn't seem right] in whatever room I go.
Every once in a while I think it died, then I hear "bzz, bzzt".

At least now I have access to all of the portable Castlevanias (GBA ones on the Vita, which is more comfortable to play, and the NDS ones on the 3DS).
I'm not that big of a Castlevania fan, but I always come back for the ones from this era (plus SotN). They are pretty fun.
