last part of my dream was talking to people in an elevator about times i've said bizarre fully-formed phrases in a dream, spurred on by me comforting a woman about communication issues by saying "data is a silent orator and loneliness is the data" followed by "i've never said that before in my life"

so in eternal daughter, you need the sub-weapon that sticks into walls or the familiar's flying ability to get this upgrade, but if you double jump and then wall jump, and one of those guys on the leaves happens to spawn above you, the damage will knock you back into it so you can get it way earlier

imagined a genre of posts based entirely on reacting to "surfin' USA" like it just came out:

"while you were surfin' USA i was studying the blade"
"i'm surfin' her pussy, you're surfin' USA. we are not the same"
"drank from the hose until there was no water left for surfin' USA"
"surfin' chibi USA"

seems they're going with different takes on historical figures than what they did in rise of the ronin, but this is still wild. i joked before, but now i really do want a DLC stage that takes place in new york

four eras of history means an opportunity to go absolutely ballistic with the fashion too

for as little as this game will warrant mentioning, we should all refer to it as Pubgy Budgy
PUBG: Black Budget revealed, closed alpha test signup open on Steam store.steampowered.com/app/4077740/...

"Designed as an FPP-first experience, PUBG: Black Budget is a tactical extraction shooter built around tension, survival, and the unknown."

solely wishing that ivy the kiwi got sequels because the title is written "Ivy the Kiwi?", meaning its sequels could have names like "Did You Just Say Ivy the Kiwi?", "Is That My Homegirl Ivy the Kiwi?", or "Ivy the Kiwi? Ivy the FUCKING Kiwi? You Come to Me on This, THE Ivy's Kiwedding Day? KIWamI"

very funny that guild wars 1 is getting gamepad support before guild wars 2
Ah, interesting - they're doing a slightly polished up re-release of the original Guild Wars (with all expansions built in) - out in a couple weeks for $20.

Always good to see legacy games like this getting some love. Especially as there's still nothing like the OG Guild Wars. One of a kind game.
