I'm bad at social media and don't have the willpower left to fix that. One year I hope to be able to fight my own battles again...

Until then, I guess I want to raise awareness? I don't know how good they are yet, but Solve M.E. is at least trying to give a banner to wave in the name of solving it, so I'll boost their efforts here: youtu.be/LttJPVUhph8 9/10

Happy Monday! It's snowing here. It's quite nice. A good time to curl up with some hot cocoa and Hollow Knight, I think. Feel free to join me over here: https://twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.
Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

I was going to stream more Hollow Knight today, and try to make Thursday a regular thing, but I forgot that my bluetooth chip on the motherboard fried itself and I don't have a wired controller available. I suppose I'll take today and figure out a suitable replacement.

Getting a later start today due to having to take a call. I've updated my lineup and I hope to get back to things regularly enough to have a calendar instead. Meanwhile, I'm streaming Rimworld over at https://twitch.tv/PoikSpirit today. Feel free to come hang out.

It's time to play a most rated game before November ends. This week, I'll be taking my first look at a lesser known Elden Rings-like, Dark Souls 3. Wait... But really, I suck at soulslikes, so this might be a mistake, but we'll see... Feel free to chill with me at https://twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

Returning to Hollow Knight. I think I've got a bit of exploring to do today, so it'll be more chill than the last few times. Feel free to hang if you want: https://twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.
First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Time for another Top of the Library! The top of this month is Resident Evil 4, the remake! I'll be going through a few of the remakes by request later, so this is just a quick nostalgia trip. Feel free to watch me over here: https://twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

Feels like I just updated this, but I got a request for going through the Resident Evil remakes (starting with 2) and I wanted to get that in before I forgot. Reminder that anyone can request something at any time, and I'll add it to the list (which can be longer than what's shown).

Time for another Most Rated Monday, where I explore games I own that have gotten the most attention, instead of just the highest rated ones. This week, it's Velheim, another Survival Crafter, which would probably be better with friends. I'll be trying it out over here: https://twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

It's time I update this, now that I've ran through the TotL last update. Next Top of the Library will be Resident Evil 4. The next Most Rated game will be Valheim, which I'd probably rather do with friends to be honest. And for the Top Requested, I'm still working my way through Hollow Knight.

Okay. After a prolonged hiatus, I'm back. And this monday is the first I've streamed this month so, it's top of the library time! Join me in checking out Post Void, a boomer shooter with a very vibrant aesthetic that emphasizes speed? I'll be over at twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

So, my entry didn't make the cut because I was too discursive. I disagree, but respect the decision. There are a lot of good entries every year, and I wouldn't have made the top 30, but still... This does mean I get to redo it without the CCC restraints. Striking me down only makes me more powerful!
Speaking of my project... I uploaded my crime against linguistics for my #CCC4 submission but it's only mildly cursed. I can't wait to see what makes the cut this year, the past three have been delightful! It's up to watch over at: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUur...

I've decided I'm going to skip this week. A lot has been going on and I'm very close to finishing a project I need to get done before I run out the door to a wedding way up the coast.

First Most Rated Monday. We're ignoring the rating today and just picking the game in my library which has the highest number of reviews. The viral hit The Forest is the first of those for me, so I'm taking a (very late) look at this game. Catch me over at: https://twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

Back into Hollow Knight! I think I've solved the stuttering. It's a bit wild that the in game frame cap doesn't work. Let's see if capping it on the system level helps... I'll be failing some more over here: https://twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

I meant to make this as a preview for the model I ported into Lethal Company. Finally got around to it. Thanks again Aparst for letting me do this!
