I think my nephew regrets coercing me into joining his fantasy hockey league.

It's a Friday night upload for Talking Trailers #6, where we talk about the cutest mouse adventure game you've ever seen! youtu.be/sP1uRmhYhcc

Hit 6000 gold in Guild Wars 2 last night -- thanks in large part to getting a permanent contract in a BL Chest last year that I sold for 5000. Now I can finally spend to complete my legendary aquabreather!

A corollary of "good people struggle, evil people don't care" is how you can have a group of 9 people ready to do something on time and the 10th is late and holds everyone else up and is oblivious to it.

I want this for all of us

Almost tempted to apply just so I can speed up the downfall of AI by helping bankrupt this company paying these kinds of wages.

This feels like when you're asking someone at work to have something by "Friday at 5:00" and they say something like "I can totally get that done as quickly as possible" and you go, "So, Friday at 5?" and they go "I will absolutely get that done when it needs to get done" and you go ....

Great job, Wendy's! www.msn.com/en-us/money/...

Forgot to mention it, but yesterday was my 30th anniversary of starting at Decipher: February 12, 1996. (I'm unnaturally good at remembering dates.) Here are a few pics from those long-gone days. AMA.

So apparently I'm Canadian because my grandparents were born in Canada. Yay?

Final Fantasy VIII released in North America 27 years ago today. This cut scene at the start of the game was unlike anything I'd ever seen at the time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyBe...

Look on the bright side, Patriots fans: a lot of people in underprivileged countries are going to celebrate your Super Bowl victory

I started watching football when I was 15. I remember being grumpy that everyone in my house paid rapt attention to the Super Bowl and i didn't have anyone to spend time with me. Anyway, I'm glad there's nobody in my life now who would be annoyed by that! :`)

I've never heard a single note sung by Bad Bunny before now, but I gotta say, that set is amazing

That "the sun is dying" movie looks like the spiritual successor to The Core

Was that an ad for a product you can hydrate with? Did we forget water exists?

I'm going to have Pop Tarts at halftime and nobody can stop me.

"America could use a neighbor just like you," the ad says. Too bad we've pissed them all off.

I'm here for the Punter Bowl

I like how that "Chatting with your AI" ad featured a dead-faced human speaking in an unnatural voice. Perfect ad for making you realize exactly how non-human they are.

I know we're all supposed to hate the Patriots, but I just can't root for Seattle in those uniforms

I've never actually been to the stadium where the Super Bowl is being played today, but I was really close. In December 2013, I was in a hotel that was just down the road from it as it was under construction, so I took one pic from my hotel room and another from street level a few blocks away.

New episode of Talking Trailers is live! Hear what Troy and I have to say about Greedfall: The Dying World, Highguard, Overwatch, and lots of other games! youtu.be/hxiYsIK4yrs

Finished the big cross-stitch project I started on in April and put it in a frame!

I had a dream that it was 50 degrees and all the snow melted. Reality:

Pro tip: Don't listen to a podcast about the Donner Party when it's almost time for lunch and you're hungry.

Looked at the other site for what I posted five years ago this week and found this interesting tidbit. Then I looked the guy up and ... oh.

The second episode of Talking Trailers is live! Stop by and hear us talk about the trailer for the new Fable! youtu.be/rKywqgVWZ5I

Had major trouble sleeping last night so got back on my couch and turned on the Bob Ross Twitch stream at about 5:30 am. Watched two episodes, went back to bed, and was asleep within 15. Would recommend.

Facebook just letting me know when I made my first WoW character. Parked him in Thousand Needles a few months later and haven't touched him since. That was pre-Cataclysm, so he's been underwater for over a decade now.

Twitch viewers: Do you segregate your watch time like this: 1) I like this streamer and will watch whatever they do 2) I like this game so I'll watch the streamer play it I feel like that's how I do things now: some I watch no matter what, some I watch only when they're playing something I like.

Funny enough, I do the last part when I go to bed at night, imagine myself in some "perfect" situation or maybe just rocketing through space into the endless void. It's nice.

I know the answer is probably "money," but why have so many restaurants replaced what used to be fairly comfortable chairs with hard wood or metal you don't want to sit in for more than 10 minutes?a

I miss having someone to watch movies with.

A lot of us can remember the year 2000, so it's kind of crazy to think that we've already gone through a quarter of a whole century

Thought the sky looked neat

Mood

Me, making plans: Everything looks great, this will surely succeed! Me, when it's time to execute the plan: This is going to fail for sure.

Happy Holidays from the new OW heroes of 2024! 🎄 #Venture #Juno #Hazard #Overwatch #Overwatch2

The older I get, the more I come to think that "gaming nostalgia" -- i.e., that feeling you loved about playing a certain game long ago that you just can't find now -- is less about the game itself and more about who and where you were at that time. That's the part you can't get back, not the game.

Terrifying headline if you don’t realize they are sports teams.

Read through the Larian/genAI dust-up, and while it's not as bad as it could be, I can't believe the Very Smart People who run game companies haven't yet figured out that admitting to the use of AI, in any form, will cost you sales and goodwill. Is that worth the "savings" from using the tech?
