the steam achievements for ESA have to be incorrect -- no way do only 10% of players make it this far? I'd guesstimate i'm 1/4 of the way through the game.

recent side-quest success: write a debugging hook on Quickmet startup, because the level editor tooling does not support boss-dead room states (!?) this problem is dealt with & i wonder how people put up with it for the solid 15 years this editor has been out LOL
