    Playstation 5

    Wonder if they scraped together some indie stuff to counter the recent ugly PR.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    It's like they set out to disappointment every type of customer at the same time. A 720p OLED... they banking over $100 per unit at this point?

    Loki

    Yeah, they probably aren't introducing 'new' characters (surely we get to meet some more Lokis, more people in the devested Earth), but rather the big bad will be someone we already know. So Ms. Minutes or a Loki. Hard to see them not leaving major breadcrumbs to Kang after all of this though.

    Loki

    I expect this was all set in motion for her to do what she ultimately ends up doing (the events of this series), rather than the impetus being an event in the past.

    Edit: and stick around for the post credit scene, lol.

    Windows 11

    Auto-HDR works pretty well. Blacks look really crushed in Rocket League, but playing WoW the horizons and lighting are really nice. No issues at all at this point, other than it taking a bit to get my Odyssey G9 to be recognized - but that's hardly unique to Windows 11.

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    There are some fundamental gameplay loops that diverge from the survival formula that makes all the difference in the world. The biggest one to me - you can't starve. Food is additive, it benefits you to eat but if you have already gathered your resources you don't need to eat while you're...

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    Makes sense, probably had the usual 'we've released, take 10/15% off!' sale. I look forward to it going on sale, this is the kind of stuff my friends and I like playing, though the narrative approach could be offputting for the group, we'll see. Reminds me of Gloomhaven in some respects, if it...

    I picked up Wildermyth which is not on sale, game is really interesting. Gotta want to do some reading though.

    Time for another Steam sale, aka a period of time where Valve shows us how much better the UI of their store could be before exiling us back to the default experience.

    Loki

    I have disliked very few episodes of any of the MCU shows. Episode 3 of Loki is one of them. Hiddleston's banter still makes it worth watching, but ugh. Hopefully there are some cool Easter eggs, the planet Lamentis made one appearance in the comics - Lamentis

    Comic Books

    Yeah I support my local shop by keeping a box open and buying X-Men, but I mostly buy hardcovers and read on GetComics.

    Comic Books

    I don't disagree with that at all, nostalgia always puts Age of Apocalypse ahead of everything else for me though. Outside of that, some of the big events like Fatal Attractions and X-tinction Agenda are up there too.

    Dark Alliance (Drizzt and co in Icewind Dale)

    NHL 2021 Irregular Season and Plagueoffs

    NHL has the least friendly broadcast packages and announcers I've ever seen in a sport. No attempt to explain anything, lots of jargon and penalties that don't seem to make any sense to anyone new to the sport. Not entirely the broadcasters fault, they can't feature and introduce lines because...

    Dark Alliance (Drizzt and co in Icewind Dale)

    Yeah, unlike Outlands it's been stated consistently that it would be PC Game Pass also. lol, my gamertag is covering half the screen on the Insider build on PC.

    Where are you seeing that? All the PR for it says PC, console and streaming. One example.

    Loki

    Think Typhoons get even stronger. The rub w/ the category stuff is it isn't actually a measurement of windspeed - even if that's what it looks like. It's actually a measurement of potential damage (caused by windspeed) and iirc efforts to adopt a Cat 6 after large storms are often rebuffed as...

    Loki

    I've never seen that theory, but anything to reduce the number of moving parts is more likely than not. This whole series being a war of Lokis manipulating Kang and his wife or something to bring down their free-will busting operation to manipulate the timeline (so that Kang can run it himself...

    I don't mind the heat for the most part, but right now is the worst it gets in Vegas. When it's forecast to not go below 89 degrees for several days there's just no break. Over 100 degrees through like midnight. They backed off it a couple days ago, but for a while today was forecast to be...

    Eh, I'm reserving judgement until I actually play the game rather than wish it was like every other zombie shooter out there. I enjoy the potential chaos/randomness it appears to drive.
