Finished the Talos Principle II DLC today, was good.
The first one was a bit too easy and unimportant, didn’t feel like it added anything.
The second one was great, loved every minute of it, was great fun and rewarding to play.
The third one was… a bit mixed. The puzzles were harder but impossible, I had to break my no-tutorial streak for one.
The second was the standout.
Though… the teaser for more to come was nice, since it will follow up directly on the final plot thread.
Recently I keep getting obviously fake emails for solar panel installation…
I am not sure why I am the target of these, but they have been frequent enough that it surprises and confuses me.
I don’t even own a home to install them on… why me?
How weird…
I finally got round to playing the Talos DLC again, and managed to finish the second chapter of it.
That was a lot of fun, nice casual gameplay and rewarding to see the relaxed side of the main characters just having fun together too.
It was a really well done piece of epilogue content, as opposed to the first chapter which felt just oddly forced and out of place.
I’ll have to see how the third goes, because it’s the most lore heavy in context.
At the behest of a friend I started watching the latest season of Misfit Demon Lord… and…
Wow the quality of the writing has dropped immensely.
I wonder if this arc worked way better in the novels, because in the anime it’s just… soooo much lore, and none of the characters get any breathing room.
There was a random episode all about training, which probably made sense in novel format for adjusting the power levels of characters and stuff, but it felt weirdly out of place and specific.
Well, basically it’s botched the adaptation I think.
Star Trek Prodigy released…
But I can’t watch it.
First because I have no account for it… but also because nobody is uploading it?!
Give me at least one option people! Please!
At this rate I will have to find someone to steal the account of to watch it… tsk.
I used a powerful tool called coincidence to be reminded of Uncle From Another World and started binge watching it.
It got lost to the aether of my backlog when it had a several week delay because of that ancient beast from two years ago that sealed the world.
Well, basically the production schedule got ruined so I forgot about it waiting for new episodes.
I got reminded of it and decided to watch, luckily I forgot most of the jokes and developments from when I read the manga back then so it feels fresh.
I forgot how great this was.
I think the day this chapter goes live is the day before the new Star Trek show starts airing on Netflix.
I am not sure what my plan to watch it is yet… I do not have Netflix…
That said the show is my current favourite active series of new trek so… I have to think of a way.
I want to support this one properly because it deserves it, but it’s a difficult thing to work out…
I don’t really want to get Netflix…
Maybe I can watch it with a friend?
I realised today I downloaded a bunch of demos during that next fest week then never played any…
Some seem to still be active thankfully, but most are not.
Which is a shame because one of the inactive ones is one I wanted to try most!
Oh well, no problem really, I would probably forget about these games by the time they release anyway hahaha.
To my annoyance we fall on a month change date…
This isn’t actually a problem, it just means I have to use the month drop down menu on the date scheduling.
It adds two clicks to my process…
This is enough to annoy me.
Yes…
I am petty.
Although to be fair it’s like 6 clicks in total, because I have three chapters today…
There’s actually quite a few interludes for this section of the story, I peeked ahead a little.
I was expecting maybe a couple at most but this is like an entire sidestory, well given their content it makes sense.
Anyway, just know there will be a couple more weeks of this tangent content!
Also if anyone knows any good kingdom building or military stories, let me know. I have a desire to read some lately.
The Steam summer sale has started!
So many discounts!
I think I can safely avoid spending this time though…
The games I want are nearing the end of their production cycle and will have their final big patches soon, so I will probably pick them up after that just to ensure compatibility and getting the maximum experience.
In the meantime I have games I bought ages ago to keep playing, and the Talos DLC that I am slowly working through due to being occupied with gachas…
I finished the Steins;Gate and Neural Cloud crossover event.
It was great.
The story was basically the plot of Steins;Gate but lightened up (in terms of duration, it still had the heavy themes) ported over to the setting of Neural Cloud. They really did not shy away from going in dark directions with everything. Sadly due to being a collab they couldn’t make it integral to the main story of Neural Cloud, but they really pushed it as close as they could.
It’s a bit of a shame they didn’t include some more Steins;Gate 0 content though… Kurisu’s field of research is actually memory scanning and AI development, which is exactly the sort of content Neural Cloud is fundamentally based around! But that’s my only complaint.
I think it nailed being a crossover with “Steins;Gate” specifically, but as a crossover with Steins;Gate as a franchise it left out some parts and it left out everything from the Science Adventure Series as a whole.
I spent a few hours finally progressing with Talos Principle today…
I uh… struggled quite a bit with the hard bonus puzzles for the first section of the DLC.
The main puzzles were easy! But my god did I struggle with the bonus puzzles.
One of them required clever very specific placement of the parts, and the other required quite a bit of thinking ahead.
Anyway, I solved them eventually… but I lost quite a bit of confidence for the upcoming extra hard section of the DLC…
I plan to just pass out in bed after this.
It’s much earlier than I usually sleep…
But I think staying up two whole nights in a row for vtuber debuts is too much.
Crazy how when I was at university less than a decade ago I would casually pull all-nighters without a second thought to watch anime or catch up on work.
Crazy stuff.
I don’t have that power anymore.
Since this is a novel about automata you should all make sure to go support Cecilia’s debut with Hololive!
Ah wait, I just realised this might go live after her debut…
Well…
It’s the thought that counts right?
Anyway, go give that Ancient Automata some love!
If she has had her debut by the time this goes live then she should also have her first cover song out!
I wonder what it will be…
