It's a fairly new game (think it was in EA for awhile) in the Roller Coaster Tycoon/Theme Park tradition. Apparently there's a lot of neat stuff to fiddle with as far as landscaping and building structures in addition to making rides (random example video from some guy who's a lot better at it than I will be). I…

Oh by the way, do you know anything about the Sorcery! series? It's an old school gamebook adapted for iOS and now finally on Steam. I keep hearing good things about it and the whole bundle is like $12 at the moment.

I think I'm going to get Planet Coaster with my Steam money. So sidewalks paved with vomit as far as the eye can see (I assume they brought that over from RCT).

There's a pretty substantial patch that is supposed to fix a lot of the issues and even restore some cut content (I think it's still in development, in fact). Apparently there's a very devoted fanbase for it.

Eating leftover ham?

Bastila. That was her name.

I know in KOTOR some Jedi can affect entire battles through meditation. One of your party members has the power. I think I remember hearing something similar about Palpatine (which is why his death turned Endor into a rout). Not sure if any of that is considered canonical anymore.

It is still on U.S. Netflix streaming at the moment, but I think I remember reading that it will leave at the end of the month.

I saw Kazaam in theaters. It may have been the first time I realized I was watching bad movie as I was watching it.

Mos' def.

Maybe if we just give nuclear weapons to the elite countries, they'll trickle down to the less fortunate, making everyone safer.

I'll read this after I finally watch it. Just know you've been provisionally upvoted in spirit.

TV Show Idea: Welcome Haute Couture - a teacher whose dreams were his ticket out returns to his old school in Brooklyn to help remedial students join the world of high fashion.

More empanada-y, to my mind. I think we can all agree that he should be covered in dough and lightly fried. These points of agreement will help us all through these difficult days.

The best mechanic in Darkest Dungeon is the ability to leave at (nearly) any time. It's great because it is a mechanic that reinforces the mythology of the game. Your ancestor awoke horrors and was destroyed because he pushed past the limits in his hubris, by making it so that you always have the option turn back,…

I finished watching Part 2 of The Hollow Crown's Henry VI today. I think compressing the three plays into two films (I assume Richard III will be more or less intact and separate) may have been a mistake. I've never read the plays in question, but it feels as if a lot of the connective tissue has been removed,…

Essays are the thinking man's tiny chocolate, as they say.
