Watched this great video about the feeling of "the sublime" (awe mixed with fear) in #VideoGames. Here they discuss it in #Subnautica & #TheLongDark. Makes me realize that this is that je-ne-sais-quoi that I really look for in #games. 🤩

the atmosphere of a Canadian winter, although I have never been to Canada. I bought this game 3 years ago, but the mood to go to the end appeared only now. Cleared my head a bit and ready to work.
3 times ending to collect all achievements. 3rd time, I had to through a small bug, drinking water is also counted as alcohol, and this is an "Prohibition" achievement
I've been pretty inspired by the #PixelArt on Mastodon so I've started to learn how to draw some basic landscapes.
Here's my first one: ice fishing at night! Vaguely inspired by #TheLongDark. Really starting to appreciate all those little nuances that the experienced artists know how to include!
I just saw someone post about this new #MMO called #Palia over on BlueSky, which looks kinda sweet and relaxing, I might check it out as a counterweight to my massively modded #Fallout4 replay and #TheLongDark grimness.
Sadly my username was already taken which was a bit of a surprise and letdown. So I’ll have to come up with a new one. https://eldritch.cafe/@Junkiecakes/110956893264333815
i went on what was supposed to be a simple fishing trip in a nearby fishing hut, when a blizzard started
i brought plenty of firewood, but no tinder to actually start a fire. if i stayed in the hut i was gonna freeze, so I decided to try running back home
except i forgot which way was north, got lost, somehow wound up at the coast in the opposite direction and fell in to water, then somehow made it to a farther away house to survive
