I really gave The Legend of Zelda (NES) by best shot after failing so many times before. I had the poorly translated manual right next to me, I locked in, but ultimately failed.

By the time I got to the 6th dungeon and a burger ate my shield, I knew it was time to throw in the towel.

Playing the first Borderlands which I haven't touched since I was like 14 and it's surprisingly tolerable when it comes to the comedy side of things. Totally not my thing, but it's a lot tamer than I remember.

Everything else is shite.

Dunno if I can be fucked continuing with The Division 2. The fixed story difficulty makes every encounter a cakewalk, and it doesn't have the interesting storytelling of the first game (bordering on cringe at times).

Is there a term to describe when games litter their worlds with audio logs, but have other dialogue interrupt the playback, other than fucking annoying of course.

The first Division rarely had this problem, but the second is a real bastard for it.

Can't tell if I like The Division 2 that much. They absolutely butchered the atmosphere and tone of the original. It seems much more focused on gameplay, and a lot of the changes they made are solid, but all the worldbuilding I liked from the first game is near enough invisible.

Playing The Division for the first time and firstly, fantastic in many ways I did not expect from a bloated Ubisoft game, but secondly, what the fuck is that ending for the Alexis Kwan side mission? is it meant to be a troll?

Woke up to 3 dead pixels on the side of my monitor, seemingly caused by small, sharp teeth. I wonder who could've done this.

Fuck Amazon Web Services. All my homies hate Amazon Web Services.

It's hard to tell whether I don't like Arc Raiders because the server slam was too restrictive or because I don't like extraction shooters. It's technically brilliant, from the visuals and sound design to how the guns feel, I just felt like it was a massive waste of time.

Andrew Cuomo is so funny man. Absolutely fucking hopeless.

Dora in Hades 2 is probably the best testament to how good Supergiant are at character writing. I can envision a million and one ways they could have made the whole snippy millennial trope just annoying, but they made her so endearing.

The lynchpin which brings down the entire Hasan controversy is that I just don't believe people care about animal abuse. A healthy society that believes he shocked Kaya wouldn't spend the majority of their energy towards memes.

I've started taking a physical book into work to read on my break rather than on an iPad and it's refreshing in a way I can't describe. Something about seeing and feeling your progress just isn't replicated with eBooks, though pressed, I'd probably read on a tablet 90% of the time.

I hope whoever first put touch controls on kitchen scales has had a really long think about the damage they've done to the world.

Hearing Zia Yusuf whinge about open borders and fentanyl makes it so apparent Reform are just trying to ape Trump in the bluntest way possible. Who in this country even knows what fentanyl fucking is?

Just imagine if people held this same passion for animal cruelty when it came to food production as they do for fake internet drama.

I don't hate Hades 2's ending (separated from its issues, it's fitting given Zag's role and a bit cute), but I see where a lot of people are coming from. I think the primary issue is the lack of time dedicated to the twist.

Coming from the Galaxy Flip 5, I really appreciate that the CMF Phone 2 is really cheap and really boring. And orange.

I used to spend the whole day fucking around with a new phone and this time I just imported all my old settings and called it a day.

I fucking love the little emotion bubbles that appear over a Shade's head. Artemis dedicating her song to the record keeper, that little squeak and shocked face appear, so good.

I'm docking Hades 2 an entire point because Melinoe's disdain for Scylla is completely unwarranted. I yearn for a diss track of that quality to be written about me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQFE...

I can't believe how Supergiant managed to one up themselves with Hades 2. I'm constantly being surprised and amazed with new mechanics and details.

Also, what a fucking masterpiece www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjiY...

Hades 2 is nothing short of phenomenal. I expected no less since this is Supergiant we're talking about, but it somehow surpassed even my expectations.
