Hah, funny note now that I’ve listened to the whole podcast: Joe Lieberman’s son, Matt, is on the Georgia Senate ticket this year. https://www.savannahnow.com/news/20201016/son-of-former-us-senator-vying-for-georgia-senate-seat

Vagrant Story is on my list of games that I loved, but refuse to ever play again. I couldn’t figure out the weapon weakness system thing, whatever the fuck it is, I’m not sure there was a way to make it make sense. But I did figure out that you could combo forever (dragging out your turn in a turn-based game) and your…

But they’d be wrong, because it means I’ll just forget about them completely instead of buying them eventually.

Damnit Claire, we just made air fryer hot dogs yesterday, it’s like you’re watching my air fryer to see what to write about next.  :P

It’s mostly the opposite of how I feel about things, but it’s a good answer. I feel like I lost my playfully creative side a long time ago. Games for me, lately, have been my no-thinking, low-stress, let’s get from the beginning to end, and maybe I’ll even let it hold my hand along the way kind of thing. But that’s…

Hmmm... you know how people complain about FFXIII being a hallway simulator... I’m kind of into that. Everytime I start up a game and open a map with ninety bajillion points of interest, I mostly just sigh and feel tired. And while being able to make my own character is neat, I mostly spend too much time, make a…

Good job, it was a lot of fun! 

Oh nice. I’m going to be honest, I hate listening to Schreier, so I was always iffy about the old Splitscreen and haven’t kept up TripleClick, even though I really enjoy Kirk on Strong Songs. But I’m going to come back for the Splitscreen reboot, since you three are some of my more appreciated writers around here.…

12 97% not that anybody cares.  I read it wrong.  

Huh, interesting.  It updated already on my PS3.  I’m level 219 90% of the way to 220, but on my PS4 it hasn’t updated and I’m still level 12 95%.  

We shove everything in that stupid air fryer. It’s a little miracle. We shoved leftover pizza in it the other day, and it was better than when it was fresh because it actually crisped up nicely.

Hahah, any Lego game was about the most painful of the things to play when my daughter was young. “Hey, you have <insert character>, who’s special power is to go over there and do <insert power>, go over there and do the thing.” “No.” “We need you to do that so we can get further.” “No.” “Well swap with me so I can do…

We have a little more of a console war going in the house. I had the PS4, but my daughter was all, “dad’s a nerd, I don’t want to play videogames” until her friends were all on XBox, so now she too has an XBox. And then the wife bought a Switch for the sole purpose of playing Animal Crossing. At least we don’t have to…

I probably came closest with either the NES or SNES as I got the NES whatever Christmas they were fully available because my dad wanted one. I got the SNES as a sorry-we-got-divorced birthday present, but I don’t think it was on release though. But going back to the SNES, I started asking or buying consoles around…

Same scale/chord, different mode maybe? Somebody get Kirk Hamilton in here to deep dive this shit since I’m just regurgitating things I’ve only kind of badly learned from his podcast.

I love hearing folks’ stories about this kind of stuff. It’s a gameplay loop that doesn’t appeal to me, but I get excited hearing about others getting excited. My goal now is to just get through Heavensward without getting sidetracked and leveling anymore combat classes.

That is neat, I did not realize.  

And that’s the thing. Xfinity doesn’t advertise the “unlimited” option. They just expect you to go over and pay the extra $10/50GBs or whatever it was. It took me calling to cancel some stuff before one of the CSRs mentioned it.

Good, everyone should buy it everywhere. I’ve never bought anything on the Epic store. Can you buy it separate or is it like Steam used to be where you can only buy it as DLC?

Ah, I see, thank you. I will probably just stick with the USB for now then. But at least now I understand how it’s supposed to work.
