Last night Days Gone went really well, better than I expected. I've opened up a large new area of the map that, the first time I played, took MUCH longer to get to. I should catch up to roughly the same amount of progress I'd made on Playstation in no time! #gaming #daysgone twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Days Gone tonight I think. It'll be a bit of a low-key chill stream, I'm not feeling 100%. #gaming #prethanksgiving twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

I'm starting to think that the people in power are so intent on demonizing autism at least in part because they recognize that many autistic individuals would be far more capable of running things sanely than they themselves are, and they can't let that idea catch on.

If I had any advice today, it would be: Don't let hypocrites tell you what to do.

Abiotic Factor and Shadows of Doubt were great, but the call of the open road is reaching me tonight. Let's catch up with Deacon St. John and see what's been happening during all of these Days Gone. #gaming #zoombies twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Abiotic Factor tonight! I'm going to restart and take advantage of everything that I've learned so far, I think. #gaming #abioticfactor twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Shadows of Doubt is a bit of a mindscrew of a game to play, but I LOVE it. I'm doing more of it again tonight! #gaming #mystery twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Tonight feels like a good night for some gritty autumn noir detective vibes. So let's check out Shadows of Doubt! Will I solve the case? Somehow I doubt it. #gaming #mystery twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

Finally trying Abiotic Factor tonight! Half-Life has long been one of my favorite franchises, and this game is HEAVILY inspired by Half-Life 1. Can't wait to experience the sciency chaos! #gaming #abioticfactor twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

It's time for my yearly Days Gone play to begin again! But this time it really is beginning again. I'm retiring the PS4 playthrough and starting Days Gone Remastered on PC tonight! #gaming #daysgone twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

It's time once again for my long stream of the month! Starting now, going for at least 12 hours, and usually more. Today it's Baldur's Gate 3! #gaming #bg3 twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

The No Man's Sky expedition is finished, and so it's time to return to Baldur's Gate 3! Which is also nearly finished. I won't finish tonight, but let's see if I can make some good progress getting there. #gaming #bg3 twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

I admit, I kind of ignored public libraries for ages because we live in the digital age. What a mistake. Libby alone is mind-blowing. Public libraries are amazing, and more people need to know that they're even BETTER than they always were.

No Man's Sky expedition continues today! I got myself set up yesterday with a frigate and a couple of exocraft which should make gathering corvette pieces really fast and easy. #gaming #nomanssky twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

No Man's Sky tonight! I've been doing some deep dives into how to better build the corvette of my dreams, so I might focus a bit more on ship improvement and customization tonight. #gaming #nomanssky twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Why are there so many good books? How's a guy supposed to read all of them? Rude.

The expedition continues! No Man's Sky this evening. #gaming #nomanssky twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

At long last, the No Man's Sky Voyagers expedition is working for me! So this time for real I'm actually starting it tonight. #gaming #nomanssky twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

In light of today's fresh horrors, I want to exclusively write works that will thoroughly piss off bigots and fascists.

I hear there's a new No Man's Sky Voyagers expedition out there. I think tonight is a very good night to check that out! #gaming #nomanssky twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Tonight will be a shorter stream, but I'm going to do some more RimWorld: Odyssey to check out the QOL changes to gravships and such! #rimworld #gaming twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

It's long stream of the month time for August! ... halfway through September. I couldn't do it a couple weeks ago, but today I resume Baldur's Gate III Act 3, where we're on the trail of Cazador! #gaming #youmustgatheryourpartybeforeventuringforth twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Tonight: Dwarf Fortress! We have nobles to cater to now that the king has apparently declared my fortress to be the new capital, and those opulent dining halls aren't going to build themselves. Tomorrow: Baldur's Gate 3 all day! #gaming #diggydiggyhole twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

On the latest Sword and Laser Veronica entertains suggestions for spooky October picks, and likes them all. How can she choose? And our non-spoilery thoughts on The Hexologists. www.swordandlaser.com/home/2025/9/...

The journey towards steel production continues tonight! I am a dwarf and I'm digging a hole. Except it's a whole population of dwarves, and the hole is more of a fortress. A Dwarf Fortress. #gaming #diggydiggyhole twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Continuing (and maybe finishing?) Indiana Jones and the Order of Giants tonight! If I do finish, it'll be more Dwarf Fortress afterward, time allowing. #gaming #indygames twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Last night technical issues drove me to Dwarf Fortress instead of Indiana Jones, but tonight I'm ready to give it another shot. I THINK I have it working. We'll find out! #gaming #itbelongsinamuseum twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

I had SUCH a great time the other month playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and tonight I'm going back for more! It's time for Indiana Jones and the Order of Giants. #gaming #itbelongsinamuseum twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Always a pleasure getting to lurk and watch in @gordmcleod.ca channel before work 😀 He's also got an extensive library of VOD's, too! @blairbeveridge.bsky.social is just an awesome guy, and a great streamer 🙂 Always welcoming in chat, and both of these awesome people do Canada proud 🇨🇦

So werebeasts in Dwarf Fortress are the worst. But I have them contained. And I'm slowly... ever so very slowly... finally starting to take my fortress back from the wereelephant curse. #gaming #striketheearth twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Dwarf Fortress tonight! I *WILL* reclaim my were-elephant accursed fortress from the evil betrunked devils if it kills me to do so. And it very well might. I will MAKE it happen. #gaming #striketheearth twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

I thought I was out of the No Man's Sky game, but they pulled me back in with the Voyagers update and its Starfieldesque ship-building for crafting the Millennium Falcon experience of your dreams. So let's play that tonight! #gaming #nms twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Dwarf Fortress tonight! Last time in Dwarf Fortress I found what I strongly suspect is a magma level. We're going to explore that very carefully and hopefully wind up with a lovely set of magma forges and smelters! #gaming #striketheearth twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

There are SO many little details to get used to in Dwarf Fortress. Every time I play is a process of learning and relearning. I swear that's part of the appeal of it. I'm back at it again tonight! #gaming #dwarffortress twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Dwarf Fortress! Today I'm going to try to remember how to set up a militia to defend my dwarfy holdings. Especially given how advantageous my defensive position is. I really have no excuse not to be prepared for when things inevitably go horribly wrong. #gaming #striketheearth twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Dwarf Fortress tonight! Last time I played this, things ended ... poorly. So we're going to start a new fortress in a new plot of land and hopefully never have to deal with werebeasts ever again. #gaming #dwarffortress twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

After last night's disastrous Dwarf Fortress meltdown of horror, I'm turning to a chill, calm, easy game. That's right. RimWorld. And now I'm playing with Smurph's Advanced Standard Storyteller! What's the worst that could happen? #gaming #rimworld twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

As a writer also in a field with a very high exec/top brass presence in the creative process, I can guarantee you that in 99% of cases, if the writing feels like you're repetitively being spoon fed plot and exposition, it's a directive from on high and not what the writer would do if left alone.

Dwarf Fortress on stream! In *totally* unrelated news, I. Hate. Werebeasts. #gaming #striketheearth twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

It's been another tiring day, but now I get to play more Dwarf Fortress on stream so hopefully that'll help, right? Good thing nothing terrible ever happened when dwarves delved too deep! #gaming #striketheearth twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Dwarf Fortress again tonight! I've abandoned the new fortress and we're going to reclaim and restart it with a new intrepid band of dwarf settlers. I'm pretty wiped this evening so it may be a shorter stream. Probably will be. But it'll be fun regardless. #gaming #dwarfortress twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

I streamed Dwarf Fortress (the Steam version) a number of times a couple of years ago and I've never gotten it out of my head. Playing RimWorld has really made me want to dive into Dwarf Fortress again, so tonight that is the plan. #gaming #diggydiggyhole twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

I really love dystopian fiction, but I really think that in this current age of darkness the world needs stories of hope and empathy more than anything else right now.

Tonight seems like a good night for RimWorld: Odyssey. What's the worst that could happen? #gaming #rimworld twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Sorry for last night's unplanned night off! I'm back on tonight, but before I get back to Baldur's Gate 3 we're going to revisit RimWorld: Odyssey. What's the worst that could happen? #gaming #rimworld https:?/twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

Creating fictional histories in Aeon Timeline is kind of addictive. I love this software for planning writing projects. Though there is the risk that I might spend all my time planning instead of writing, I guess! #writing

So yesterday's stream featured a sudden surprise boss that was a heck of a deal (and an even bigger heck of a fight!) so who knows what I'll run into today? Not me! Baldur's Gate 3 up next. #gaming #baldursgate3 twitch.tv/GordMcLeod

To clarify, this has nothing to do with your Amazon orders! This is specifically a note for people who are expecting packages directly from me. Amazon paperbacks should all arrive as expected.
