It was either this or fight four million very annoying duergar in Baldur's Gate 3
I have the house to myself tonight, so playing Shadow Of The Colossus for the first time.
I know the controls are *meant* to be a bit gnarly, but... anyway, so far I have killed six majestic beasts 🥲
Interesting 🤔
I did everything up to the final boss, which I could not beat for the life of me. I only just managed to get to the "final form" a couple of times, let alone beat that. Blazed the rest though, so IDK why?! Great game though :)
My old laptop is in no danger of running W12 so at least for now I will be fine too. Maybe when I upgrade in 2035, once prices have come down again...
I would take Windows Vista again over this.
I also enjoyed a tiny sign today

I have been cursed with that most dreaded of transports: the rail replacement bus
Yo dawg I heard you liked trains so I made you a Doom level set on a train while on a train
Had a brilliant couple of days in Hull at From Player To Page, helping teach kids and teachers from local schools all about the games industry and the many kinds of writing and literacy skills involved!

Incredible scenes, right out of the gate
I am very much in Hull
Evange-lion
Excited to learn whether Shinji finally gets in the robot*
*I have not seen Evangelion. I have no idea what this really means.
Really looking forward to being up in Hull for a couple of days this week, as part of From Player To Page's great event championing games as a literary form for young people, alongside these v. cool people!
If you're around there's a nice social after too >>

Tsundoku is somewhat similar, but requires at least acquiring the books first. Perhaps I'm looking for something halfway between the two...

I feel like at least one other language must have a word for the feeling of learning about the existence of new amazing-looking games every day and knowing you'll never have chance to get round to them all. 🥲

In other news: More DOOMing

I once received a surprise hi-five from Sarah Bond.
LinkedIn is wild
A Doom trivia I did not know!
I'm v. hype to be working on the upcoming Game Music Festival, but particularly about the concert on 19th June with @awintory.bsky.social and Troy Baker, who will be composing an original game score LIVE 😵🎮🎵

Outlook defaults to it online and consequently I just sent someone a meeting request for Sunday 🙄
WHY WOULD IT DEFAULT TO SUNDAY
Who in their right mind sets their weekly calendar as starting on Sunday rather than Monday
This is just such a tremendous achievement
