- Comment on Day 365 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing (One Year Anniversary!) 4 days ago:
I never finished Signalis myself but it’s a pretty interesting game. One that I always suggest but never see much anywhere is a game I got on Humble a few years back called MO: Astray. Seems really simple initially but has a really interesting way of narrating the story that I don’t want to go further into.

Okay I’m going to be a pedantic fuck and say no, tomorrow is the one year anniversary. Day 365 is just the end of the first year. Solid dedication though, been following the entire journey, even when you play games that I’m not usually interested in. I wish I gamed every day for a year.

Yeah I tried to redeem within 2 min of buying. They are selling this without any keys in their system.
- Comment on Current fit in the Witcher 3, anything I should be on the lookout for? 1 week ago:
I pretty much only play it one way every time… When I’m high enough level, I get Griffin Witcher gear, and when I’m high enough for Feline Witcher gear I stay with it through the base game and both expansions. I did go Bear once and it was okay but never felt as good as a set.

Yeah I’m considering buying it on Steam directly with the plan of refunding if I get a code from Humble.
- Comment on John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025 1 week ago:
Interesting, I haven’t had that experience with Humble Choice. Sometimes I don’t redeem for a week or more and I still manage to get keys. Was there any particular game that you had this issue with?
- Comment on John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025 1 week ago:
Just a heads up that if you try buying from Humble, they have no keys right now for this game. It’s very possible we’ll never get them with the impending delist.

Lol I saw that Lenna’s Inception is starting later tonight. Reminds me of a friend who was streaming it back in like 2020. The devs had some kind of cloud feature they used to send him an in-game mail that said hi to him by name and thanked him for playing it. Was really damn cool at the time.

Yes, it’s absolutely a hellscape out there right now. It was bad before, with poorly written requirements and unknowing HR depts, but now applications can be instantly rejected, including when they were suitable candidates.
Good luck!

It can definitely be difficult to find jobs without having a degree, but they do exist. A lot of the time you’ll have to start at the lowest level and work your way up, but knowledge is knowledge and that would be apparent in your performance. Unfortunately because a lot online job applications are now filtered by AI, you may run into issues just getting an interview. Only thing I can suggest is mass-applying to several places and see what gets you a response.
Either way, if you do have a desire to learn and show that in an interview, it’ll always be a positive.

Don’t discount your own knowledge just because you’re self taught. I’ve been in IT for 26 years now and help in managing over 100k user accounts and hundreds of servers, and while I’ve had some formal training, >90% of what I use daily is self taught. It’s a desire for knowledge that matters, not how that knowledge is derived.

Yeah doesn’t happen for me very often either, but happened twice to me in about a month now. Finished E33 recently and it was a hell of a ride the entire time. But then after that I went on to play Nier Replicant for the first time. Damn, I need a therapist after games this hard hitting.

You’re below minimum requirements on VRAM and you say it’s not optimized. Well done.
- Comment on Grounded 2 - Announce Trailer 1 month ago:
You should! It’s a very solid game with a fun story. Just don’t play like my group did and end up on NG+9 on the hardest difficulty. We JUST quit the game two weeks ago to move onto other games, but now this drops. Lol figures.
- Comment on Former Dragon Age writer says Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Baldur's Gate 3 prove 'what's possible when a game is given time to cook' 1 month ago:
Seriously, I keep trying to get people to get a taste of it, to the point I’ve even gifted it. It’s been fascinating and beautiful and devastating. Haven’t finished it yet, but getting very close and I only regret it’ll have to end soon.
- Comment on Clair Obscur's Composer Talks Going From Unknown To Scoring 2025's Most Celebrated RPG 1 month ago:
The man is an actual genius, I can’t believe how varied the OST is, from operatic, to jazz, etc, every track just works. He is at the same level of genius we all felt about Mick Gordon on his Doom OSTs, and maybe better. I know I’m dealing with recency bias, but this is one of my favorite games of all time already, and probably my #1 for OST.
- Comment on F*ckin Android update on my ZFold5 removed the setting options to independently set the home screen grid and the cover screen grid size. 2 months ago:
I have ever since Nova sold out. Loved that one but I removed that immediately after the news came out. I don’t hate the stock Samsung launcher, but it’s left a lot to be desired.
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 2 months ago:
Some games really do depend on learned conventions from previous games which can feel a bit unfair to the uninitiated. It’s a double edged sword of avoiding too much tutorializing vs alienating newcomers.
- Comment on V Rising Update 1.1 - Invaders of Oakveil is Out Now! 2 months ago:
As much as I’ve been excited about this content update, I didn’t know it required a server reset to get into it. Not sure I have it in me to start over just to see this.
- Comment on Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Mod Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered 2 months ago:
The most? Nah. Yes they’re fairly friendly to modders, but there’s been other cases of publishers going way out of their way to embrace a modder or mod group. I can think of one right now where a massive localization mod team actually had their work used as the basis of the official Western release of a game.
- Comment on When Nintendo games were affordable 2 months ago:
You’re also forgetting maybe the biggest factor: library selection. We used to have a lot of choices, but not literal thousands of choices across all our platforms. If we only had our choice of a few hundred games, $80 might sound more reasonable.

How’ve you/her liked the Framework? Which one did you get? I’ve been considering one for months but I don’t have a huge need but it’d be nice to have a solid laptop rather than my Chromebook that I’m running Arch on when I’m on my couch.
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 3 months ago:
Made my jump to Arch (btw) a couple of years ago and haven’t really looked back. I have Win10 as a second boot option, but that’s reserved specifically for Game Pass and VR, but it’s very rare I boot it. Don’t care to upgrade even after EOL, and I’d never recommend Arch to anyone but the most comfortable with Linux, but it’s been a great option for me.

This is the way. I’m hyped as hell about this game, but we should not trust any game will be the same as advertised until proven.

- Comment on Day 152 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots 7 months ago:
Never played Emperor’s Tomb, though I think I have it. I’ve played Last Crusade, Fate of Atlantis, and Infernal Machine, but never really kept up with anything after. Do you know how this compares to Infernal Machine? Loved that game but it was brutal and made me question my sanity repeatedly for continuing.
