You can, and should, save-scum as much as you like in single-player games. You should be allowed to try and fail as many times as you like. You should be allowed to load if you get an outcome you don't like. You should be allowed to try different approaches, and not feel bad about "breaking" the game or something. You should be allowed to choose the fun you have.

Yes, there are some games which doesn't allow this, and where the challenge is "part of the fun". I'm not talking about those. I'm definitely against it when that attitude starts bleeding into all games, though.

Back up! I have pronouns and I'm not afraid to use them! Or sometimes him! But I prefer them!

Alright, here we go! Stream starting a bit early because reasons! https://www.twitch.tv/chiralthealien

Okay, everyone. I've decided that I have to start thinking about the next game that I'll be playing for November, since it's already the 11'th. So, I've made a short list, and you all get to help me pick! You can pick more than one, too!

The poll lasts for 3 days, and I'll start whichever wins on Wednesday!

ChiralTheAlien, (edited ) to random

Okay. So... I mentioned last night that I will probably not finish the long-form YT video this year. I watched what I have this morning, and I've officially decided that this... goes to the bin. Unfortunately, as much as I'd like to believe in it, the conversation has moved on from the topic I chose, and while the work certainly won't be lost, I don't think this is relevant anymore.

Instead, I'll open up a conversation. I am happy to once again throw this question to you, and ask if any of these topics below speak to you, and if you'd be exceptionally kind, you can even reply to me and tell me why.

ChiralTheAlien, (edited ) to random

Okay, so I've been doing games for a while now, but I'd like to hear from you: What sort of content would you be interested in seeing from me going into the future? I look forward to hearing from you, so to make it easier, here's a poll! You should be able to select multiple answers. If not, or if you have anything else to suggest/add, please feel free to also comment below.

(This isn't an "Oh, vote for this and I'm switching everything to it" kind of question. I really just like to know what you'd be interested in seeing, because frankly, we all have limited time, and I'd like to make the time you choose to spend watching my stuff as awesome as possible.)

So, in four hours or so, (5PM SAST) I'll be streaming some more Terraria. We'll see how things proceed tonight. For tomorrow, poll time!

I can either:
Play more terraria, or
Stream myself making the new channel intro animation, and some scene transitions.

Oh yeah. Fellow fediverser @fluttergirly has a game releasing on Steam today. Looks like it's going to be pretty interesting and fun, with some horror themes? It's going live in a few minutes. See here! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2326350/Grey_Area/

Oh gosh, it's not even November and people are getting out the Christmas decorations...

Apparently the bird site is falling over its own feet again. If you've just arrived in the flock of migrating Twitter birds, welcome to Fedi. Please feel free to settle in, be nice, and decide early whether it will be cat, dog or fox ears. That part will be important in about three months.

So I lost an account. Like, genuinely lost. I know the username. I don't know the password or e-mail address.

ChiralTheAlien,

@rq That does happen from time to time. You may even find the email in a few... years.

To my Northern hemisphere friends who got to see the Aurora... I am both super jealous, and so happy for you!

@Houl Good morning!

ChiralTheAlien, to random

Hello, all. Okays, so bad news first: no stream today.

Good news: tomorrow should be a return to normalcy on my end! Finally!

ChiralTheAlien, to random

Hey all! No streams this week, I'll be back next week!

I kid you not, the standard keybind for MHW's keyboard shortcut to get to the communication menu....

ChiralTheAlien,

Apparently you can also use ctrl, but what a hassle.

welp, plans for today have been moved to tomorrow.

ChiralTheAlien,

@follpvosten Oh goodness. That's... not good. You alright?

ChiralTheAlien, to random

Hey all. Sadly, I'm going to have to skip this morning as well. If I feel better tomorrow evening, I'll do a catch-up stream, otherwise, I will see you Wednesday

Houl, to random

:neofox_up_paws:​ morning

ChiralTheAlien,

@Houl good morning!

ChiralTheAlien, to random

Good morning, all. I'm really quite dead today, so I'm not going to stream. I'll be back tomorrow.

lofty, to random

I've been having a lot of fun playing Rabbit and Steel.

Too bad I suck at it though.

ChiralTheAlien,

@lofty I feel that. I think the Venn diagram of video games people like the most and video games they're bad at is just a circle for a lot of people. Or maybe I'm just speaking for myself....

People always go on about the KT extinction event and the utterly catastrophic impact the asteroid had. However, my "favourite" (horrible as it is to call it that) (not-exactly) extinction event has instead become the Great Oxygenation Event, where 80% of life on earth flat out died and the planet became terraformed (heh) because some stupid-ass bacterium learned to eat the sun really, REALLY well.

Not just the inhabitants, but the planet itself, the very composition of its atmosphere and just about all the rules changed as these bacteria slowly poisoned the air and rusted the oceans. It's... frankly mind-blowing the scale of it all.

And today it's just considered a super ordinary, rather unremarkable thing that there is a stupid amount of oxygen floating around freely in our atmosphere.
