Some thoughts on my time playing The Outer Worlds 2 and how it (and my money) could have been put to better use. youtu.be/PtbwGe5mjag

I have a rare evening home alone so its time to get some more Crimson Desert in! Live in 5 :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Gyt...

A first and brief look at an upcoming historical wargame - Veterans: Napoleonic Wars. It's still early in development but when finished should play like the ACW Ultimate General games. youtu.be/9b8Qmzm5e64

While I'm struggling to get to grips with the controls in Crimson Desert, I've got this constant urge to just load it up and play more. It's nice to sometimes not have to worry about following a story and just go off and do stuff. I'm sure I'll get the hang of the controls eventually.

Live in 30 minutes with my first time playing Crimson Desert! This looks huuuge! www.youtube.com/watch?v=gX7l... Also on Twitch of course.

Here we go, it's been a long time coming! My Hearts of Iron 4 Afghanistan adventure begins! youtu.be/wHmz0J1JHlo?...

Sorry for the long hiatus, I hope to be back to normal over the next few days and resuming streams and videos. Starting with today! A chill Bellwright stream later just to look back in on that while I pick up a new game for next week.

Solasta 2 looks like it's going to be another fun DnD adventure and when multiplayer is added it'll be high on my list to stream. Here are my first impressions of the game from the bit of early access gameplay I've sampled: youtu.be/rRGIgGgOtIs

Youtube seems to be borked today, I'm getting closed captions turning themselves on for every video and advert.

Free Game Alert! Isonzo, the WW1 shooter, is free to grab from Epic at the moment. Gives me that "Day of Defeat" vibe from yesteryear! store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/isonzo

Live in 5 checking out Solasta 2! The game is still in early access but as I enjoyed the first game I'm looking forward to more DnD shenanigans! www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mWE...

To say my week is anot quite going as planned would be something of an understatement 😆

Plans for a new HOI 4 series and more... youtu.be/XHwLkslSjDI

My thoughts and initial impressions on Windrose, which has the potential to be the best pirate game to come out since AC4: Black Flag. I'm quite impressed! www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8fp...

Windrose looks pretty good! I'll check it out further tomorrow but so far I'm enjoying it.

Late start today as I've just downloaded a ton of demo's to try out, stream and make videos of over the next few days. Hopefully something for everyone across both channels. We start today at 4pm with Windrose, a survival game set in the age of piracy. Yarrrr! ☠️☠️☠️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mhig...

Work on the house was finished earlier than expected so I'll be live this afternoon as usual. More Bellwright! www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nAN...

Back to Bellwright on today's stream, I have some plans to build a trade network of outposts across the map. Will this be added to the ever-growing list of stupid ideas I come up with, or will it be an empire-spanning masterclass in trade development?

I think todays stream of Outer Worlds 2 will be my last, I'll finish it off-stream before reviewing it. Back to either Bellwright or Tainted Grail later this week. OW2 had potential, and it has a high production value (graphics, speech etc) but sadly has no depth.

More Outer Worlds 2 today. Let's see if I can actually SEE what I'm shooting at today among all the sparks/lightning/fire/flashing lights everywhere. www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0fM...

Live in 10 minutes playing the eagerly awaited (at least by me!) The Outer Worlds 2. I've been in need of a sci-fi and guns fix for ages! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y16o... Also on Twitch of course.

A quick look at Ground of Aces, a World War 2 airbase sim (sort of). If enough people like it I'll do a full series and playthrough. I think it's fun! youtu.be/m7Jz4fTTAoE @blindflugstudios.bsky.social

Started a new run on Master of Command as France. Upped the difficulty (and it shows!) and aiming to play an army focused on giving 'em the bayonet! So far its fun! youtu.be/VrqjpU9YZ_0?...

Had a rebuild of my studio. What started as an afternoon project took me 4 days 😆

Thanks to everyone who has contributed so far! We're going at the end of March, just wish it could be sooner!

I'm halfway through restructuring my studio, so no stream today while I get everything put back in place and plugged in.

Have to say I thought the Masters of the Universe trailer looked pretty good!

Free Games Alert! The Styx games, Master of Shadows and Shards of Darkness, are currently free to grab from Epic. If you're into goblin stealth-em-ups then they should be right up your street! store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/styx... store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/styx...

Damn, internal storage prices for PC's have shot up! I guess I picked the wrong day to try and install all that Steam backlog!

Welcome to 2026 everyone! Time to get back into first gear and stream some more games! Actually I'll be continuing with Bellwright to begin with as it's awesome. I'm not addicted. I can stop any time I want. Honest!

I only just discovered this earlier today, but Bellwright keeps surprising me with it's content. www.youtube.com/shorts/x5xCW...

Free Game Alert! Total War: 3 Kingdoms is free to grab from Epic. store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/tota...

Happy new year! Here's wishing you all health, wealth and happiness for a fantastic 2026!

Happy new year!

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you have a good one

New Hearts of Iron 4 series just started, taking a look at Japan with the latest dlc. Oh and Merry Christmas! :) www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I'll be live at 3:30pm streaming Bellwright, a medieval settlement builder and strategy game. Has this one on my radar for a while so can't wait! See you there :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKxg... Also on Twitch www.twitch.tv/markgfl @snailgamesusa.bsky.social #bellwright

Free Game Alert! Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel is todays free giveaway on Epic store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/jotu... Looks like an ARPG. Can't say if its any good as I haven't tried it yet.

Sorry for the long hiatus, but I will be live this afternoon playing the third DLC for Kingdom Come 2, "Mysteria Ecclesiae" - so expect the usual chaos from one of Henry's adventures when I'm in control :D www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLIi...

Free Game Alert! And its a good one! Hogwarts Legacy is currently free to grab from Epic. Shame I'd already bought it in a Steam sale :D store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/hogw...

I think the Durin's Folk expansion for Return to Moria would be quite good - if it worked properly, which it currently does not. I also think the amount of effort it takes to get your NPC's to do anything is not worth the pay off. I'd rather just make all the new stuff myself but sadly can't.

I'll be live at 3pm with the new expansion for Return to Moria, "Durin's Folk" - will it be any good? It brings new areas to explore and npc's to put to work rebuilding Moria. Catch me on either Youtube www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpC1... or Twitch www.twitch.tv/markgfl

We haven't forgotten Ukraine. In March we hope to return there to deliver our fourth med-evac vehicle, helping save Ukrainian lives. If you would like to help us get there, here's the link (feel free to share) donorbox.org/yorkshirefor... Almost £30k raised on our three previous delivery missions!

One thing I don't like about making game reviews that I can't quite understand is that you can really upset people for not enjoying their favourite thing as much as they do.

My thoughts on Legacy of the Forge, the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 DLC. Mostly enjoyable, but not for the reason I expected. youtu.be/H7EC7eYWIM0

Free Game Alert! Warhammer Vermintide 2 is currently free to grab from Steam. store.steampowered.com/app/552500/W...

Doing a few thoughts videos on the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 dlc, starting with Brushes with Death youtu.be/FfEGojforNI

First coffee of the day is always the best coffee.

My streaming schedule is going to be all over the place this week, but I'll go live when I can. Today will be between 5-5.30pm UK time. See you later :)

You know, Witcher season 4 isn't as bad as I thought it would be. So far anyway, got a few episodes still to go.
