RE: @PartPurple@mas.to

I also tried to skip. I also failed.

It feels so WEIRD not being able to do something that used to be so effortless.

Why are Mondays always so Monday-ish!?

I guess on the bright side, the day flies by when you're juggling so many balls...

Hey @scopique@gamepad.club you were 1000% spot on re: Obsidian. I have saved so much time on "I've seen this issue before but can't remember the fix or what site I fixed it on" issues.

Thanks for sharing your recommendation!

I noticed I'm about 40 hours into Coral Island last night, and I feel like I just started playing. I guess that's a good sign?

And Prey has been making me feel clever, which I appreciate.

So I guess I finally have a couple of games that have 'stuck'

Went to a weekly flea market today for the 1st time. So strange. Different vendors selling everything from toilet paper to power tools to geese and chickens.

The food trucks smelled amazing tho.

It seemed like it was targeted at the local Latino community as all the signs were in Spanish & the food trucks all sold Mexican food.

But now I know, if I ever need a live chicken, I can get one on any Sunday.

Every Friday we watch Playstation Access's "Friday Feature" which often are applicable to all games and gamers.

I felt particularly 'seen' in this one since Rob (the guy on the video) shares the same dislike for game difficulty that I have.

I would play more Enshrouded if it didn't take 10 minutes to compile shaders seemingly every time I load it up. What's up with that?

Is it just that I play so infrequently that the cache gets stale, or does everyone sit through this every time they play?

Reading this Critical Consensus on Crimson Desert and the critics love that it is an open world.

I thought the journalistic gestalt had decided that "we" were all tired of Open World Games?

But yeah, guess I'm gonna have to pick this up sooner or later.

@Tipa@gamepad.club It its defense, I have it set to "Quirky" with "Warm" set to "More" so I'm kind of encouraging that behavior. I actually find it kind of amusing to let it have some "personality." For a long while casual ageism really spun me up, but that was from people, not software. Eventually I learned to tune it out. But yeah, it is kind of a crummy thing to say, now that you have me thinking about it!

I know I'm behind enemy lines talking about this, but I created a "life coach" project in Chat GPT to help me get to feeling better. One of the goals is being outside more, & to motivate myself 'coach' gave me a neat idea: to identify 100 species of plants and animals over the course of the year. The idea is giving myself some kind of goal "Going out to find a new bug" rather than "going out to walk pointlessly" I'm kind of excited.

It took us 2.5 months to finally get around to heading to the beach. Parking was tricky (lots of tiny lots) in the off season, and $6/hour. Can't imagine it during summer. We'll be checking other locations for more reliable access, but at least I got my feet in the (cold!) water. This spot was about 30 minutes away so not exactly around the corner. Was glad to see a couple surfers out there, though.

We watched the latest Jurassic Park movie (it's on Netflix now) tonight. I'd heard it was really bad, but c'mon, dinosaurs and dinosaur-adjacent creatures terrorizing people? How bad can that really be? I suppose clicking on it on Netflix and spending $50 to take the family to see it in a theater do set different expectations, but we had fun with it.

I thought things were bad before, but then I saw the latest trending news. Something really important that we all need to know: Demi Moore cut her hair. I mean, it's impossible to get actual news these days. You try to find out what is going on and you get celebrity cruft that doesn't matter one iota...

It's the same kind of stuff we always do. Gather materials, make tools. Your workbench is in the back of the van. The side opens to set up camp for resting. The engine runs on anything organic I guess. You pick up trash and recycle it to earn vouchers to download new blueprints. It's the overall vibe that sets it apart rather than the mechanics.

It's a 'cozy survivalbox' kind of game where you're cruising around in a camper van exploring. Feels really chill and relaxing. Of course silly me takes a screenshot that doen't shot the van. There are a couple to choose from but I went with the VW Microbus aesthetic.

Someone on here asked the other day if when vibe coding if the tool would refactor things. Gemini (via Antigravity) has been pleading with me to let it refactor a "mega-component" that was getting unwieldy so, in my case at least, the answer is yes.

Over in other places folks are losing their minds over MS promoting the person in charge of the "CoreAI" team to run Xbox. It might be a disaster. In fact I feel like there's a good chance it'll be a disaster. But remember AI means more than GENERATIVE AI. Nividia uses AI in DLSS, Sony uses it in PSSR. With Moore's Law fading into the past, AI can squeeze more frames out of current hardware. So MAYBE that's the kind of AI she'll be bringing to Xbox. I'll at least give her a chance.

My Time At Sandrock is interfering with Steam Next Fest. It has now been 10 days of "This next quest HAS to be the end" in this silly game. He caught the bandits! We saved the town from drought! But are we done? NO. Now we're have to... build an amusement park? OK well, let's do that. It HAS to be the end but... No! Now we need to plant another forest. OK we'll do that and now we're done, right? Nooo, now we need to plant pretty bushes everywhere.... It goes on and on....

This morning I learned that Ball X Pit actually has an "Ending". Also, this morning before work I finished Ball X Pit.

I was going to try a demo last night but only lasted a few minutes. Why? The animation style. It was one of those games with 2D characters that constantly stretch and compress as their idle animation.

@nimgimli@gamepad.club Anime. Sorry to say it out loud, but I'm so tired of the anime aesthetic. Not slagging on it; it's just something I avoid.

@scopique@gamepad.club I wonder if it is so popular because it is relatively cheap to produce vs other aesthetics? Or just there are a lot of artists who can do anime? Or is it based on marketing. There sure is a lot of it out there!

It was one of those games with 2D characters that constantly stretch and compress as their idle animation. For some reason that really bugs me. And I was wondering if other folks have a particular style/aesthetic that immediately puts you off? Anyone? I should capture a quick vid to show what I mean. I know you've seen it but I maybe am not describing it well.

I hate having to look through my Steam library for an icon I recognize when trying to remember the name of a game I can't remember.

It does allow me to recognize how many game I have never tried...or don't remember acquiring, or don't remember even hearing about. Why are they in my library!?

1st demo for me: Astrobuilder, a space based srpg with AI driven entities to interact with. Curious to see if they'll all feel like each other and/or if they'll all sound like a typical AI Chatbot.

I played Sandrock all afternoon and it STILL WON'T END. 125 hours or so... I like the game but, y'know, too much of a good thing. I just want to see "The End" and then I'll have my life back. LOL

When "Man On The Inside" (Ted Danson as a retired professor who goes undercover as a spy in a Elderly Care Home) came out a while back lots of people were talking about it (generally fondly) but S2 dropped without making much of a splash. We're finally watching it and IMO the quality has stayed right up there. We only have 2 episodes left and we just started it this week. Anyway if like us, you enjoyed S1 and kind of forgot about it, it's worth watching S2!

I find it really weird when you cancel an annual subscription like 11 months ahead of time (I always do it so I don't forget about the service and have it renew on me) and they immediately start sending emails about all the features I'm missing and why I should come back. Sir, I shall not miss those features until next Winter. Nag me then, please.
