Look all I'm saying is, if I thought humanity was so intrinsically flawed that the era of mankind should come to an end for a higher form of being, then maybe I'd end up a bit like her too 🤔

Really, really hope I can enjoy recording the Fatal Frame 2 Remake. I wanted to like the game when I played the Wii version but the pace was so slow and everything had this one shade of brown that I found it gruelling to play through. Maybe it was just a hard game to stream for a live audience?

I always loved Miranda's reaction here. Sometimes there really is something oddly liberating about having your hopes crushed. They don't care about you that much and it's not going to happen. Now you can put your time and energy elsewhere.

Going to try very, very hard to give the other bachelors of Coral Island a chance so I don't just predictably pick Mark before I've even booted the game up

Did this cute little personality quiz online and it called me a lazy 'Bed-Rotting Genius'. Not sure where the genius part comes from but the bed-rotting I have DOWN

Made it to Gold a little too easily in League this season and now my stupid ass is thinking... What if I tried to reach Platinum and see how far I get? 😳

I wonder what life is like for the social media manager of Arsenal Football Club in England. Their fans are called 'Gooners' by the way.

The biggest compliment I ever received on my Japanese skills was talking to someone who wasn't a teacher who then corrected me on some grammar I was using mid-conversation. Japanese people are way too polite to do that unless you are actually getting decent at the language 😅

Been telling people a new Animal Crossing but with faster online features and the ability to help build your friends' islands and interact with objects more while visiting would sell millions.

I've always had bad under-eye bags but good lord I need to get rich so I can have them surgically fixed or something. I look like I am bravely soldiering on in spite of The Disease™

Boyfriend and I broke up tonight. We had become close friends rather than a relationship by the end. In that regard I'm happy at least!
But I feel like I don't have a lot of time to waste in terms of getting back out there and god... getting back out there... 😑

Victor wanted us to change in-game Lara to appeal more to a Japanese audience. Huge eyes/head etc. They faxed through examples really late in dev. Toby Gard really didn't want to alter Lara. As a compromise all that was changed was the manuals & guide. Not sure who did that render or illustrations.
@cnhyv.bsky.social Hello Paul, do you have any info on this? I've found an old post of yours talking about the illustrations (xcancel.com/cnhyv/status...) but what about the 3D render? Was that also part of Victor Interactive's "suggestions"?

This is the tiniest gripe but the app for my local taxi service doesn't let you select a tip at the end of a journey. I'm guessing it's to do with how the card charge works.
I feel like recently you're asked to pay tips before you even know how the service you got was. Isn't that against the point?

Cleared M12S and the tier week one! There is a tower mechanic that also requires Esuna'ing Doom and then standing somewhere to bait a laser that was so hard as healer it legit nearly made me crash out into despair 😭

Starting to wonder how other people in their 30s don't find themselves thinking about retirement and death a lot once their family starts to pass (unless they were unlucky etc) because I have become even more morbid than usual. I've caught myself thinking I "don't have much time left" and I'm 35 ffs

Progging the last fight of the tier (M12S phase 2) in FFXIV right now! The arena looks cool (reminds me of Wicked Thunder) but mechanics in this are very WHUH?????? right from the very beginning
