  • I’m still staying with the last week’s list for the most part.

    I’m continuing my low combat Daggerfall playthrough “lifethrough”. I’m just traveling around and focus on doing everyday tasks for people. It’s nice.

    Time management in The Sims is slowly getting easier - it’s still a bit of a pain but I’m improving. I’m thinking about reinstalling TS2 to compare whether it’s just me or if these parts of the game were improved there (I genuinely don’t remember as it’s been a while since I played the game).

    I’m mostly fine with Medabots: Kabuto combat system now as it can be worked around to some extent. More surprisingly however I’m not as annoyed with random encounters in this game as I usually would be, even though games like Pokemon or Final Fantasy tend to have shorter fights overall. Don’t know what’s the reason for this change but I’ll take it - I’d have a difficult time trying to finish it otherwise.

    Last but not least, I’ve been playing a few games of Counter-Strike 2 here and there. I don’t expect to stick with it for long but it was interesting to jump back after few years of not touching the game (the last time I did CS2 wasn’t even out). I’m positively surprised I’m not complete trash despite my break though it’s not like I had any expectations to begin with. No way I can compete with peeps playing it nonstop for years.

    Edit: welp, I tried to run CS:GO to check out whether some of my hangups with 2 are new or existed back then but the game won’t even launch. Thanks for the legacy branch Valve.



  • Still playing Daggerfall and The Sims.
    With Daggerfall it’s more of a research project rather than a playthrough at the moment, will probably go back to playing soon. As for The Sims… were days in the first game always this short? It really feels like there’s barely any time left after coming back from work and taking care of basic needs. Man, if I wanted more of that I would just focus on my own life.

    Besides these two I was thinking about going back to Hollow Knight but then I found out I didn’t backup my saves before reinstalling the OS on my desktop. I was half way through the game. I decided to play Medabots: Kabuto for GBA instead.

    I played this game a bit before - don’t remember when exactly or for how long though. I also forgot pretty much anything about it besides the Medabot customization system (it’s neat). I’m still not sure whether I like the combat (not being able to select exactly who and where you attack can be a pain) but I got a hang of it and have enough fun to keep playing. It’s also super easy to cheese, at least early on.
    Other than that game is pretty dope. Story is simple but fun, music and visuals are great and the already mentioned unit customization add a lot of choice to combat (especially if you’re willing to avoid minmaxing). I honestly didn’t expect to have this much fun with the game.
