Oh wow, now Grand Theft Auto VI will be releasing in November of next year 😳
Not too surprised, but I’m pretty sad to see it getting delayed again 😔

Been playing some Zombie Army 4! I picked it up a few days ago on sale, and it’s a blast! I played it several years ago when I still had PS Plus, but finally grabbed it and the rest of the DLC I was missing!
Very fun and brainless game, and I’d definitely recommend it for its sale price 🔥

Went out and got some fish and chips the other day, and they were absolutely fantastic 🔥
It’s been a bit cooler out the past few days, a bit drizzly and foggy lately, and I’ve been craving some more!
Hope that everyone here is having an amazing Monday so far 🙌

Took a bit of a break over the weekend and tried to just chill out, play some games, watch some football, and also grabbed Torchy's!
One of my favorites is Torchy’s Tacos, especially when they run BOGO specials 🌮🔥

I have plans to continue playing some Hades today on my Switch, watching some football (Red River Rivalry hell yeah 🏈), catching up on Substack reads, and messing around with my Vita some using remote play 🔥

If I could, I would love to be chilling out in The Arcanaeum inside the College of Winterhold 🔥
It always seemed like an amazing location to read and study in Skyrim! Despite the smaller size of the college, I always loved the atmosphere and location of Winterhold!

An early morning autumn sunrise 🌅
I took this photo a couple of years back at the start of autumn! It shows an empty field with the sun rising off in the distance between some trees!
Hope that everyone here has a wonderful day 🙌

Hope everyone has/had an amazing morning today 🌅
I took this photo a few years back on a small North Texas lake on an early, autumn day! It was beautiful out that morning, with a fall breeze that contrasted amazingly well from the sun’s warmth!

Had some people recommend Hades to me on Substack after I asked about it 🔥
I decided to pick it up the other night on the Switch (on sale for $7) and played for a bit, and it’s been very fun so far! I’m looking forward to diving deeper into it!

Mentally, I’m here today 🔥
We had a decent cold front move in, and I’ve been feeling like Skyrim more and more lately. It’s always a game I love to play during the autumn season!
For subscribers, please keep an eye out for a new Game Save write-up tomorrow!

I love exploring the Wayback Machine for older websites to see classic web designs!
I started looking up some webpages on Target from August of 2004, including this one showing the page for the PlayStation 2 🤩

I had taken this in-game photo in Mass Effect 1 when I played it earlier this year! Probably one of my best playthroughs of that game, and I loved the interior of the Citadel in this game!

I took this photo a few years back of a deer wandering through a nature preserve I was at in North Texas.
It was a chilly and peaceful morning out, and I love thinking back to that calming day!
I hope everyone has a peaceful day today 🙌

I've been really loving the photo modes that a lot of games are coming with lately! I took this one of the Mako on a random planet I visited awhile back!
I finished up the first Mass Effect again, and have been replaying ME2 off and on for a bit!
