Introvert. Nerd. Just want somewhere chilled to talk about the things I enjoy.

🎮 CP: The Outer Worlds 2
📺 CW: So I'm a Spider So What?, Jurassic World Chaos Theory
📚 CR: Metro 2035 - Glukhovsky
Assassin's Creed Shadows being my second most played game this year is an absolute travesty 😂 the longer I let that game sink in, the more I don't like it.

My Summer of Mass Effect was brilliant though. Fantastic games, and so glad I've finally played that trilogy.

Saw the #AvatarFireandAsh trailer in the cinema the other night and looking at the design of the new villain... nice to see Crimson Fire and the Yaaxil from Shadow of the #TombRaider are still going strong.

Finished #LostRecordsBloomandRage today and ended up liking it a lot! Tape 1 is verrryyyy slow but it captures that vibe of Summer as a 16-year-old really well. Then Tape 2 is where it kicks off and really hooked me in. Ending was very cool and I was properly invested in the choices I was making.

Shout it from the rooftops because you all need to hear this - #WatchDogsLegion is a brilliant game!

Stick it on permadeath and it's some of the most tense, satisfying gameplay you'll get. This is my MVP, Chloe, a totally random NPC who ended being a character I adore!

(Also, London's awesome).

Well, 109 hours later, my Summer of #MassEffect ended the other day.

I always knew the ending to ME3 would be bad because it's infamous, and yeah... weird. But the journey to get there across the three games was brilliant. Absolutely some of the best games I've ever played

This DLC in #MassEffect 3 is making me all warm and fuzzy inside. Amazing how attached you get to your crew, I'd die for them all. And Shepard dancing is the funniest thing in the galaxy.

I really like seeing random #booksky posts so gonna start joining in when I finish a book.

Metro 2033 is slow, dark, but had me so engrossed. It's a dense read and took me a while but I liked it a lot. Want to read the sequels but need a break first as it was a heavy read.

My Summer of #MassEffect continues as I just finished ME2.
Woah... what a seriously good game. I'm ashamed it's taken me so long to play these, it's just the type of stuff I love.
I bloody love my renegade Shepard and love that you carry them through all three games, makes you get so attached.

OK shame on me but I've never played #MassEffect before. Finished the first one today and... yeah I get it. So good! Story has me hooked.

Wrex and Tali were my go-to team and I would now die for them.

My post-work routine this week has been biking down to the river and reading The Paradox Paradox.

Huge congrats on the book release @nerdcubed.co.uk!

Here's a random weird, wholesome thing my hometown does:
Every year they do a town-wide #Pokemon hunt with knitted Pokemon placed on post boxes. If you find them all you get a knitted Poke ball as a prize.

Only got these three so far though.

Review scores are by no means the be all and end all, but this and some of the stuff I've seen on YouTube from people who've had early access is really encouraging. I'm excited.

Finished off a 100% completion run of Spider-Man 2 tonight.

I don't really like any of the characters, I don't care for Marvel at all, but my God these are good games 😂 done a 100% run of all three recent Insomniac Spider-Man games. They simply don't miss.

To get even more excited for the upcoming @tombraider.com remasters I forced a bunch of my friends to play the Angel of Darkness board game last night.

Spoiler alert: Lara and Kurtis won

These guys from The Land Before Time confirmed as making an appearance in Rebirth.

Finished #LifeIsStrange #DoubleExposure recently and this one didn't really hit home with me 😐

I thought the first three chapters were GREAT as a who-dunnit type mystery with using Max's powers to find clues, but the final two chapters were a bit of a letdown (I found Safi really unlikeable)

Complete with oversize novelty shoe if possible, please and thank you

Finished #XCOMEnemyWithin tonight and.. omg this is my favourite new game I've played this year (as in new to me, never played any XCOM before). I've been absolutely obsessed, thinking about it constantly for two weeks

Shoutout to my final squad, and the MVP goes to Pelops II who had SEVENTY kills

Just finished #Afterparty and really enjoyed it!

Night School Studio's best game is still #Oxenfree 1 imo, but it's the creepy mystery that makes that so good. This is more light-hearted and bloody funny in parts. Didn't vibe with the main characters as much either but loved some of the demons!

If you see this, show four of your favourite games 🎮

Just finished #DinoCrisis for the first time ever. For a game made in 1998 this holds up so well! Had such a good time with it. Remake this Capcom you cowards.

It's simply impossible for me to like something and not buy merch for it, so I've now got my own Pelops II on my desk who's gonna help me with emails and stuff. Literally the best dog.
