- Comment on What are you playing this week? June 17 2024 Edition 2 weeks ago:
Trying to get things lined up for the Dawntrail expansion for Final Fantasy XIV next week. When first announced I wasn’t very excited, but as it gets closer I’m looking forward to it more and more.
Also dispensing libertea in Helldivers 2
- Comment on Are trailers revealing too much again nowadays? 1 month ago:
Yes, although it’s been that way for many many years. I also hate the concept of teaser trailers for trailers, as well as “THE. TRAILER. STARTS. NOW!” as if it’s meant to build some kind of hype.

Back when I was younger in college there was a guy who was very socially awkward and unfortunately had a stink that could be smelt from the opposite end of a long corridor. He used to hang out with another kid who had learning difficulties. One day one of the least nice people in my class said to smelly guy “Jesus Christ, why don’t you go take a shower, you stink!” and this caused smelly guy to go bright red in the face and storm off.
Cut to after class and a bunch of us go to the communal area of the college and hang out. Smelly guy walks into the area and walks up to his friend all flustered. His friend asks “Are you alright?” And smelly guy says “Someone told me I need a shower because I smell”, friend says very timidly “it might be a good idea.” Smelly guy goes bright red and storms off again.
He comes back after about 10 minutes and walks up to his friend and pulls out two cans of deodorant and shouts “YOU THINK I SMELL?!” And proceeds to spray the deodorant over himself in a rage…but then turns on his friend and sprays him like crazy. Everyone around is in shock and smelly guy throws the cans on the floor and storms out of the building. We can all see him out the window and he walks up to a bin and kick it, it doesn’t move (secured to the ground) and he falls over, gets up and runs off. We didn’t see him for the rest of the week.
The following week he turns up and his hair has been cut, he has new clothes and his aura of stink is gone. People just casually say hi and over the remaining time we were at college people started to talk to him more and were more polite towards him. He’d still hang out with his friend so I suspect that outburst was water under the bridge.
I hope ex-smelly guy is alright in life. That must have been quite the turning point for him.
- Comment on Founder of Baldur's Gate 3 developer blasts publisher greed 3 months ago:
It’s nice to not be on the hype train for every major game release, because ultimately they will have the same shitfuckery shoed in, likely because of publishers. BG3 was a genuinely fun game and I’m glad Larian has done so well. You can really see a difference in games when it’s made from passion rather than the drive to make as much money as possible.
- Comment on Is there some sort of Indie Game Showcase? 3 months ago:
I tend to watch Clemmy Games to see what indie games are coming up. There are a lot of duds, but then you come across a diamond in the rough. Clemmy does a great job for me, releasing videos almost every day and I would recommend giving the channel a go!

And an entire hospital in Stevenage, England.
- Comment on What game did you last finish? What did you think of it? 7 months ago:
Endless Dungeon with a friend. It was entertaining but we finished a full run after not too much time and we’re both pretty disappointed. The base gameplay was good, but it really felt like a demo, no real drive to play it again
- Comment on Hospital bosses ignored months of doctors' warnings about Lucy Letby 10 months ago:
They needed to maintain their reputation in order to keep their jobs and stay on this hamster wheel?
- Comment on I can stop any time 10 months ago:
Branston beans are superior, they have a thicker consistency and richer flavour. They don’t have that weird metallic tang too them either. I once was the kind of person who would only go for Heinz, but after trying Branston I am a convert to superior beans
