On the one hand, it's been a very bad weekend. On the other, I have a new review up for Spilled!:

ever since i got that winning run in white knuckle, i've noticed that the 'lock on' for when your hand is open to grab something is simply not working sometimes. i don't have iron knuckle or hard mode turned on, there's just times the hand will simply not grab a grab-able handhold/etc

watching someone devolve in real time to become one of those ffxiv players that'll end up on a watchlist for being very popular but also terrible to deal with is something i wasn't expecting to see this early

was thinking about doing video essays again, but then i remembered how that went before. will probably start with written essays first, see if they get any traction and then make it a video if so

Got a win in White Knuckle during tonight's stream
I feel exhausted

Started up Starrupture and I can already see a bunch of ways they could improve things: One, doing less 'how do you do, fellow teens'-style writing, but second is more hotkeys for often used stuff, like a toggle for the building board and hotkeying stuff like rails

My hands hurt SO MUCH
But my not-Lego tortoise friend is complete

I've noticed my gameplay in White Knuckle is improving; not by a big margin, mind you, but I'm going from careful, measured climbing to being -slightly- quicker, along with not being so reserved with item usage. Keeping momentum is the main hurdle for me

Going to try and make more efforts on learning sign language this year

I sometimes out of morbid curiosity check the streams on the sidebar on Twitch, and there’s been two takeaways I’ve had
1: People actively giving money to some of these people is bonkers, and
2: I feel a whole lot better about not leaning into being a shouting yahoo

Again, it's fun to lie sometimes. I don't instigate fights, yet I still get thrown into lobbies with enough CoD sweats to choke a whale
Yes, aggression-matchmaking is now a thing in Arc Raiders

It's almost comical how bad I am at White Knuckle
And yet
I must climb

Started up Intravenous II, and I underestimated how much the game wants you to take it slow n' steady if you don't want things to go sideways to the power of ten. The scroll wheel toggles your movespeed, so that tells you what kinda stealth joint it is

Ended up settling for a short victory with Mother Ostankya's campaign in Total Warhammer 3. On paper, the blessings/hexes are neat, but their effects are so minimal and the long victory condition is just turn after turn of consuming a resource without much thought

Started up the new Rune Factory game, and while it suffers from the usual needing to pause the pace to tutorialize mechanics, it is showing that there's a LOT you can do, in a very good way. Semi-'automating' through villagers is also something I haven't seen before

I feel like my family likes to tactically wait for when it's holidays to fight me about everything that's ever come out of pandora's box. Really makes me want to meet more people in the city to hang out with, but that ended catastrophically badly last time

... I could see a potential discount-Link cosplay glam with this top

News Tower has been a fascinating puzzle to solve in terms of a management sim. I keep thinking, 'oh yeah, I'll just make an even, unbiased paper that doesn't lean in one way or another', but managing expectations, goals and avoiding pitfalls has made it impossible, in a good way

Christmas this year has been so dreadful that I can feel myself Scrooge-ening

Welp. Kingdoms of the Dump keeps crashing at a cutscene, and there's no apprent fix to work around it

Can't complete the new quests in Arc Raiders anymore since rats are camping the locations incessantly. And this counts as good game design?

My hunt for a new chair isn't panning out. Was going to try one from flexispot, except they're pricey as sin and some of the reviews I've seen are primarily/fully positive without a single criticism. Considering how they sponsor '''influencers''', I'm better off skipping them

Aight, so listen: The mugs in the Starlight Celebration in FFXIV? I want them
No, Luigi

@voidvanish.bsky.social Only reason I declined your join earlier was because I was playing alongside someone who's streaming
