Started playing Doom 3 and Avowed on the side.

Doom 3 is really scary, and immersive due to its PDA based story telling. The shooting is largely basic though. I love figuring out the codes for lockers.

Avowed, I just started to see if I like it, and so far I’m enjoying the looting in the game. Every nook is has some platforming puzzle to get to some treasure. I’ve not even done a single quest after reaching Paradis, but have looted maybe 50 chests alread!

I’m pretty sure unemployment percentage, much before 90, causes revolts and rebellions.

lol. Maybe new game plus would be a gwent run

I really enjoyed Exodus. Made me pause and enjoy, all that friction makes the game much more memorable than say Far Cry.

After having finished Witcher 3 main story for the first time (110 hours, including almost all side activities except Gwent), I thought of giving Cyberpunk 2077 a shot. Then CDPR told how they’re gonna remaster Witcher 3, so I’m going to wait for it to come out before I play the DLCs.

CP2077 threw me into a world, much like Witcher 3, where I don’t understand anything at all. There’s so much stimuli all around the world that I was really overwhelmed and hating the dystopian future. But after Act 2, game opened up a bit, and now I’m slowly taking it in and enjoying it.

It seems it will be off GamePass this month as well, so I’ll probably buy it as now I do like it a bit. I’m ignoring main quest as usual and only focusing on side quests right now. I collected all Tarot cards for example lol.

Apart from that I’m also playing Resonance plague tale legacy, it’s pretty cool. Combat is quite fun, and music is amazing.

Aww thanks.

Yeah I hear you. Idk why I didn’t mind it in Kingdom Come Deliverance, but did in Witcher 3. Somewhere I feel Witcher 3 doesn’t tell you everything exactly and something massive happens coz of your choice, while KCD being so grounded seemed very straightforward, and you could hope your skills would influence the chances of getting what you want.

I am looking forward to Fable, because it too feels like a KCD like experience where you get to be who you want to be, and almost always know what your dialogue choice will end up doing.

Poe’s law

Got laid off this week. Sucks. Severance is good enough for few months, will just work my backlog I guess.

Finished Witcher 3 main story, will start DLCs after the remaster is out (I thought I was in the safe 11 years post release, guess not lol).

I am trying Helldivers 2, not into multiplayer but thought I could see if it is something I like.

I wanna get into Cyberpunk 2077 next, but I feel decision fatigue after Witcher 3 (my first CDPR game). I actually like linear games with not many choices, makes me anxious that I’m playing game wrong, just like I feel I’m living life wrong. Especially when games are 40+ hour long. Let’s see if I can get over it.

The decade of war crimes

Just finished Silent Hill 2 Remake. Really enjoyed it. Time slowed down as I played it, the game isn’t that scary coming from games like RE7, but the atmosphere and the trauma stories are really something. Medium from Bloober was similar in that way. The gameplay was fun too, never overstayed its welcome.

I feel they did creepy rooms and underworld better than Alan Wake 2 did it. Not sure if it’s fair to compare them, but parts of it made me feel how AW2 didn’t go far enough in some of its sequences.

UE5 sucks though. Lots of noisy and shimmery graphics and fps at times dips to literal slideshow on PS5.

RDR1 is on PC already!

Rdr2. Still waiting for a fps patch on console (most powerful machine I possess)

Just finished God of War Valhalla. It’s a great amalgamation of rouge lite loop and

And now I’m playing Resident Evil 8. Even though it’s stressful it’s really calming after labouring a platinum and getting all trophies of Valhalla.

Idk why they are calling it console grade when their focus is largely on in vehicle displays. It’s more like threejs than unreal.

They were going with Flutter to leverage its rich UI toolkit and for “building stunning interactive experiences.”

For a second I thought I was colour blind, then I remembered I am stupid

D or G

Some people can benefit from staying silent, fixing things up, and then turning up with results.

Turns out letters were like tweets back then lol

People are still pasting stuff? I thought by now agentic coding or AI in editors would be a norm.

I can say 90% of PRs in my company clearly look or declared to be AI generated because of how random things that still slip by in the commits, so maybe he’s not wrong. In fact people are looked down upon if they aren’t using AI and are celebrated for figuring out how to effectively make AI do the job right. But I can’t say if that’s the case for other companies.
