Still not finished Signalis… struggling a bit with free time for gaming. Just wanted to say, I do play games for story and/or atmosphere. Like watching a movie, and I do like my movies to have a story or atmosphere.

I hated the gameplay (for being very easy) and the story was meh on Death Stranding, but the mood and the feel of that game won me over, so I finished it and even went back to try 100%ing it.

My job makes me having social interactions for most of my day, so a game that gave me the feeling of isolation and loneliness like Death Stranding 2 or 3 hours before sleeping was kind of pensive at the time. Few weeks after finishing the game, Covid happened, and since then I had few instances of isolation IRL, and it wasn’t nearly as introspective as Death Stranding. So I look fondly on that game even tho all the gaming aspects of it were boring IMO. Just the atmosphere was great.

So yeah, I can consume any media if the atmosphere and/or story is enjoyable or challenging (in a positive way)

I will check the video, I like video essays.

It’s not game breaking. the clunkiness shows in combat situations, but you can just do ‘dark souls run past the enemies’ in most cases. I like this game for the atmosphere and story mostly.

I wasn’t a big fan of the old RE games (could never get used to fixed cameras), but Signalis works for me. Still haven’t finished it, free time seems precious commodity these days, but come the next weekend I’ll hopefully definitely will have the time to continue the game.

Signalis (on Switch)

The music, the sounds, the visuals create a perfect mood. I’m not far into the story, but for now it’s very intriguing. One of the few games where I don’t mind the backtracking. Despite the retro look, the game is very immersive.

There is some clunkiness tho. Might be better on a PC.

If you like sci-fi with a bit horror, ambiguous storytelling, gloomy atmosphere, try it.

Genocide is illegal (I think, it’s kinda blurry for decades now). Don’t see those people concerned about it. I don’t think these people care about law. They bend it to their will, like they do with their tax-paying citizenry who vote and pay for them.

I don’t like this trend! War movies in 10-20 years will be boring. No Rambos, no Schwarzeneggers, no Spielberg and Tom Hanks emotional patriotism! No funny casual racism, no casual homophobia, no casual misoginy… Did Mark Hamil play a terrorist in Star Trek after all? The End of an Era. We’re gonna have to watch films about how a bribed White House politicant struggles to keep up with weapon manufacture demands while managing to convince his wife not to divorce him because she feels neglected since he’s never at home… directed by Clint Eastwood.

That’s boring. I’m out!

… “won’t support our key middle east partner any longer” …

lol. They will forget. We are forgetting faster and faster… the new generations are also not caring more and more. And we need oil. Lot’s of oil.

It’s all going as planned. What these butchers (not just Israel, also US and EU) are doing to Palestine today will just be a footnote of a ‘war against terrorists’ in few years.

This genocide is no freak accident (weakened Israeli defense systems my ass). All our politicians hands and by proxy our hands are steeped in blood… and the Nazis are louder and louder in Europe again… cheered on and supported by the mighty american and british media and war machines. All running on oil.

The ones that will still be remembering won’t have any platform to be seen or to act upon…

“A magical sky god war” is being financed by our taxes and Saudi royalty. There is no “holy war”. It was always about resources, political influence and greed. Religion is just a smoke screen.

Just because you got bored of one war, doesn’t mean this genocide should be overlooked.

War is fine as long as it’s not a “holy”?

As long as US and EU support you, you can do whatever you want. US and EU will even send you weapons, bombs and tanks to do it more efficiently. This is nothing new, and you will see this open genocidal behavior more often in the future, and their media will justify this mass murdering behavior tomorrow. Just make sure US and EU are supporting you, otherwise you are either a terrorist or commie and aren’t allowed to be a genocidal psychopath.

Our “democratically elected” and “lesser evil” politicians and industrialist are not human.

Our tax dollars and tax euros at work.

Just finished ‘The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet’ by Becky Chambers - quite fun space opera (if you like Firefly etc.), I’ll definitely pick up the rest of the series at one point.

Started reading ‘They Never Learn’ by Layne Fargo - Starts interesting, I feel I’ll finish this one.

After that I will definitely start reading ‘All Systems Red’ by Martha Wells - I’ve been hearing about ‘Murderbot Diaries’ and how good they are for years now…

I like reading scifi most, but always try to squeeze some other genre in between.

I hope you fucking die, Harley Jarvis!

Ahoy matey. Quite a conundrum ya have there. Th’ winds be fair in times like this… may yer briny deep be bountiful!

I didn’t. It’s my IRL nickname. It means ‘short circuit’ (as in ‘easily frustrated’). I’m the opposite of it, I’m the calmest person on this planet. My friends thought it would be funny. (the full word spells ‘Kurzschluss’)

Managing to squeeze at least one excursion on Hoxxes IV every morning before my gf wakes up.

Leave No Dwarf Behind!

No! LOL! Who still uses direct links? Get with the times man. The kids these days are torrenting. (they’re not zooming around in Elden Ring, it’s just a piracy term)
