Hey guys, I made this same post on a Not Sure, Another World chapter update too but I know the reader bases don’t entirely overlap so I’m going to say it here too!
It’s literally ad verbatim so feel free to skip if you’ve read it before.
So this week a small indie game that I have been supporting for quite a while finally released.
It’s called Tears of Avia, and it’s on XBOX and PC.
I really love this game, and the reviews for it right now are…middling at best.
So I’ve decided to try and share the love and throw it out at you guys.
It’s a SRPG/JRPG type hybrid that basically any anime fan will love! You can think of it something akin to Final Fantasy Tactics but…well less AAA.
And when I said small, I meant a small team, but there’s at least thirty hours of content in this game. At least. And that’s not including replayability and alternate endings and the hardcore mode.
To celebrate its launch I’m thinking of doing a steam key giveaway too.
So let me know in the comments if you’re interested in a chance to win!
Also shameless plug of my twitch channel that has my ongoing playthrough. (I should be going live about an hour or so after this posts!)
I went to go and read some manga…
Then I realised I’ve had so many computer problems and changed components so often it’s lost my cache and I can’t remember my place.
Also I forgot what site I used to read on…
Guess I’m cursed.
Did I mention I have an SSD now? It’s so quiet!
It’s funny because now the only noise my PC makes is my fans…or my GPU screaming when loading something because it’s too powerful for my other components to handle and is actually held back. But to prevent that bottlenecking I basically have to replace my entire PC!
Today I realised I’ve been playing No Man’s Sky so much I’ve neglected all this seasons anime…
Well guess I will be taking a break for a day or two…
Yeah who am I kidding. Time to pull an allnighter and watch all the anime!
One of the things I’ve always been bad at in games is creative use of props.
For example in No Mans Sky the items you get given to build with are pretty limited. Yet I’ve seen people make amazing facilities with high levels of realism and detail.
Like living rooms, kitchens and various other things!
Yet I can’t even make a half convincing engine room with some pipe props.
Well in the end I managed to make something I’m half fond of though.
If you watch my stream in about an hour or so (at the time of this going live) you’ll get to see it when I give the tour.
So it’s just gone 5am and for some reason I’m really hungry! But here’s the problem.
It’s a workday which means my stepdad will be waking up in the next hour and a half. Potentially sooner.
Do I risk raiding somewhere downstairs?
Why am I even asking this? By the time you read it the crisis will have long passed!
Well who knows. Guess this might be my final internet log before catastrophe.
Aside from the next post…
I wonder if any of you guys play No Man’s Sky still?
I got addicted to it recently.
Though I just finished the main story and can feel the inevitable burnout coming.
Also here’s a present for you!

It’s nothing special. Just a random portal address.
There’s a portal on my base planet too but I’m not going to expose that till I scan those dastardly flying creatures that will never spawn for me.
Seriously I’ve been all over the damn planet and they just never spawn! They’re supposed to be common too!
I have the same problem with some fish on a nearby planet! Common but never spawning!
We finally reached Chapter 100 of Volume 2!
Thanks for everyone who’s read this far.
I know I know, it’s actually chapter 255 not chapter 100!
But any reason to celebrate is a good reason right!
Well it would be a good time to celebrate if our heroines weren’t getting their a̲s̲s̲e̲s̲ kicked last chapter…
Let’s see how they turn things around! That’s how it works right?
I have developed a crippling addiction to No Mans Sky.
I just played it for a solid 12 hours today!
I bought it October 1st and I have over 50 hours in it already!
That’s insane!
I don’t normally play games this much before I burn out!
I have however almost finished the main story already so oops…that “I have no goals” burnout is probably about to arrive since I can’t enjoy open world games for the open world part.
Satisfactory being the exception.
However I will get my biological ship first! The whole reason I got the game!
Ah the hololive drama.
I don’t really want to mention it too much. Honestly I think what ‘China’ is doing is ridiculous.
However I sympathise with Cover.
They basically have to bend the knee here or they risk severely damaging the livelihoods of the entire China branch of Hololive.
That’s not just the people who manage it, but the girls who stream there too!
If they get branded negatively for just being associated with the company it’d be a huge issue!
I hit 1000 logins on FGO yesterday. Or today. Or whenever I got that login bonus relative to when this chapter goes live.
It’s crazy to see such a large number honestly!
I don’t think I’ve ever stuck with anything specific this long before.
Just goes to show my dedication!
And there are people with even more than me as I skipped several months and missed several days!
I also had that whole issue with emulators being banned and my phone sucking at the time.
I always hate it when I have to schedule on a month changeover day. Luckily I miss it this month.
But I always manage to screw up.
Because I always schedule it for ‘tomorrow’ on the site time (which is actually just later today in my time) but on month changeovers I have to compensate for that.
I usually screw that part up in some way.
I have been sat on my foot for two hours…it is very dead. I am very scared to move. Send help.
Also in other news I started streaming Satisfactory again and I did lots of maths for working out what to do with my factory and it’s going to be a nightmare.
The thing I need to make are the hardest in the game and they require so many components.
I’m basically having to build a duplicate of my factory setup that makes every item I’ve unlocked…just to make one item. It needs that many components!
I’m going to build it somewhere else too for the fun of it I think. Somewhere very far away.
I’ll figure out how to bring it back afterwards!
Speaking of qualifications.
Did you know I have both a medical and a boat license?
I also once had a lifeguard license.
And this weird industrial laser machine thingymabob.
Among other things.
I had a really long conversation today about that time I wanted to become a pilot and all the problems around it.
Like the expensive nature of getting qualified, which needs you to pay for the exams, the lessons, the planes and the instructor…
And then the fact that when qualified you need to get a job, but to start with you can only do short haul. But pilots only get paid for their hours in the air. So short hauls are really bad earners because you spend equal time in airports and equal time in the air.
But to do the well paying long haul flights you need hundreds of hours of experience doing short haul flights.
Basically you have to invest in becoming a pilot. And I am poor.
