A little intro for all my new followers (hello!):

I also run ThatBrickSite.com, a small Lego-focused site. I'll muse here on life, pets, Google, games, Lego and more.
Hey, look, it's a 10 out of 10! Genuinely a GLORIOUS game. @spookydoorway.bsky.social, you guys are incredible 🙌

I've just lost a chunk of regular freelance work that was my lifeline in this post-Google-has-ruined-my-life world.

If anyone has any leads on work - writing, editing, mock reviews, anything at all in a games, tech, toys, or books related space - I would be forever grateful.

Thanks all 🫶

There's certainly some fun to be had with Elden Ring Nightreign if you can get a good team together, but a range of issues prevent it from fulfilling its full potential.
