Incredible. Given how expensive dental treatment is in a lot of places, this could be revolutionary for people who can’t afford regular checkups and/or treatment plans. It’s not going to be a replacement but it can certainly mitigate a lot of damage.

I’m not a fan of it. I think live service games generally comes with battle passes, which are essentially preordering DLCs. DLCs that have not been announced, with no details and nothing else. They also often offer some exp bonus or in game items. I think this has an impact on how the game is balanced. The bonuses can’t be game breaking so they have to nerf the base game experience to make it “valuable”.

I think it can be done well if the base game is free. Dota 2 and csgo are good examples of it because the bonuses that come with battle passes are mostly cosmetic, and they help the support game development. If the base game is £60, then the company can fuck off. I prefer standalone games with expansion packs being released at a later time. Being able to play offline is also great, even though I am rarely without Internet access.

Wow I never thought I would live to see Mewgenics getting released. Definitely adding it to the wishlist

I don’t have any specific games to play after work. I just play whatever I’m enjoying most. Currently, that game is baldurs gate 3. I haven’t played anything else since Thursday. Before that, it was Spiritfall. It’s a roguelite with brawlhalla/smashbros type combat fused with hades’ blessings power ups. It’s still in early access but it’s pretty polished, and a lot of fun. I was also playing risk of rain 2 from time to time but boy does it take a while to get good at that game…

Yup. Fuck Ubisoft. The last game from them was Child of light, and it will stay that way.

Nier Replicant

I reached ending A, and I’m finally beginning to see interesting differences in the current route. Finally got my Dualsense controller to work via Bluetooth on pc as well

Definitely another reason to hold off buying a handheld for me

I’ve found that it’s easier to avoid misery than it is to find joy. Some tips given here reflect that as well. Cut off toxic people from your life. Don’t dwell on tiny things for the full day.

I have an example. I went to get some coffee yesterday. There was a man in front of barista counter. The barista asked me for my order, and my instinct was to ask if the man next to me had been served. I didn’t think twice about it. She got visibly upset at me for having the audacity to ask him. She took my order but she continued to mumble audibly about how she gave eye contact, and she knew how to do her job, etc. As if my remark towards the man belittled her experience and skills.

She had no idea what my intent was, but she assumed the worst. For doing so, she ruined her own day with it. It’s all about perspective.

She also ruined my coffee but I didn’t let that ruin my day either haha.

Cheat engine is one of the best things for modern gaming. I love many roguelites but when it gets too slow to progress, I’m using chest engine to make things more fun.

So far I’ve picked up Cassette Beasts and Nier Replicant. The former is a monster tamer game which I really enjoyed. Mechanics were fun, and the world exploration was superb. You unlock abilities for movement kind of like BOTW/Hollow Knight.

Nier Replicant has hot androids
