    This fucking season, man...

    Not going to lie, I love Eddie but I called this and I'm a little frustrated he didn't hold off with all the signings in order to get more loans for squad depth. So for all his positives, this is on him.
    He should've seen this coming when we got ECL. That's another six (very intense) games to drain the players. Of course, we couldn't factor for Tonali (fuck AC Milan, they knew)

    Another season like this one and our stars are going to start doubting the project.

    Lewis Hall is one loan. It's speculative whether we could not have signed other loanee's of sufficient quality. I think Eddie will have his signings vetted and I think he gets a lot of help finding them, but a manager must be able to pick the right players for the system he wants to play.

    But agree, Tonali does need support but by god, he owes this club big.

    Interesting design choice for the second game. 🧐

    @EighthLayer Awww, no more Rimworld comparisons.

    I started this morning before work. So far it seems like a nice little game!

    @EighthLayer Not played it but highly regarded, from what I can tell.

    The Rwanda bill is disgusting and makes me ashamed to be English/British.

    Are you a fan of the original Half-life?

    You'll probably want to see this.

    Well, it was worth a try...

    It's perhaps telling and less than complimentary of me that I'd much rather have a conversation with a dog or Google Bard than I would with an actual person.

    I'm not out to cause offence, but additionally, I'm completely unapologetic too.

    I think it's because A.I. and dogs only want to help, and neither of the two ever judge me.

    Is The Outer Worlds any good? I've actually wanted to play it since before it was released. It's currently free on Epic (Go grab it, I guess), but the install requires like 60GB and I wanna know if it's "Delete crap to make room" good or just "When you get around to it" good.

    Strider,
    @Strider@mstdn.games avatar

    @Gwendolyn I think in instances like this, it's often really valuable to watch a play through on Youtube.

    It's a heavily storied FPS with strong characterization. I think it was very well received, from what I remember, but I've played very little of it so I can't offer much more than that.

    Maybe buy yourself some extra storage for Christmas and then you can install and play it later?

    The injuries this year have a silver lining. Game time for super-Miley. I love this kid.

    Holy sheet!

    I've been following this game a while but 80% off. That's cray cray!

    I don't know everything, but seemingly, Outward is an extremely challenging RPG. It harkens back to an older RPG style like Morrowind. No quest markers and no quarter given. I also love that death isn't always a respawn. Sometimes you'll be captured and forced to work down mines, for example. Even I, a jaded gamer, am a little excited to play it.

    @WanderingInDigitalWorlds Why not. Get the mod, it's a single player game, no reason you can't customize it to enhance your own experience. I'll try it vanilla first, but mods are always worth keeping in mind

    I'm going to post to the subreddit now, see if there are any suggested QoL mods worth trying. Maybe do the same?

    Strider,
    @Strider@mstdn.games avatar

    @WanderingInDigitalWorlds As for whether it needs to be modded, we shall see.

    Strider,
    @Strider@mstdn.games avatar

    @WanderingInDigitalWorlds Yes. I don't have that problem. I've been so desperate for a new game I can play on my own, so this has come at the right time for me.

    Strider,
    @Strider@mstdn.games avatar

    @WanderingInDigitalWorlds It's not through choice. I've had a real drought where good games are concerned.

    I play GT7 and Project Zomboid cooperatively but I have nothing for myself, so to speak.

    As a gamer, I feel like some sort of pariah, sitting on the outskirts of the circle of gamers huddled around the figurative gaming campfire having lots of fun.

    No matter how much I look, I cannot find the game that gets me excited or holds my interest.

    There are a couple of games on my wish list that give me hope. I've high hopes for The Wayward Realms and Worship looks very interesting but beyond that, nothing. I've loads of games on my wish list but they're all long shots.

    Strider,
    @Strider@mstdn.games avatar

    @philheppenstall Yeah. I've revisited a lot of old games through emulation.

    Dungeon Master, Captive to name but two. I'll have to look at more perhaps.

    Strider,
    @Strider@mstdn.games avatar

    @WanderingInDigitalWorlds Yeah. I'm going to go look through my memory for old gems. I've revisited a lot of them, but there are no doubt some that I've somehow forgotten.

    Strider,
    @Strider@mstdn.games avatar

    @WanderingInDigitalWorlds Well my, aren't we in a verbose mood? 😂

    Although I'm hardly one to talk...

    Have you seen American Beauty?

    A clip just popped up on YouTube and I've been reminded just how good that film actually was. Put it on your to-watch list. It is, as I say, rather splendid.

    @philheppenstall I was going to mention Spacey but decided to skirt it.

    He's a dirtbag but I'm not going to let him ruin a great film.

    If you're looking for a chill little adventure game where you are a little space man on a tiny planet, then look no further than Astroneer. A great little game to get the brain working.
