I should have rappelled down to this ledge and gone from here.

Still thinking about this. I tried this, which was dumb and resulted in me falling to my death, losing about 20 minutes of progress.
I always end up back there.
I fell to my death about 20 feet to the left of this position five minutes after taking this. Looking at my screenshot I see where I went wrong. Ugh.
Nothing like a nap on the side of a giant mountain. Cairn is a tough game. Amazing, but tough.
I don't get this article. Loads of games that cost $40 (or more) sell cosmetics at launch. The prices are on par with other games I've seen. I get it if you don't like this, but it's not a Marathon/Bungie thing.

Here's a fantastic reader experience. ๐
C'mon, @theathletic.com. I'm subscribed and I see ads. Every time I visit the site I'm asked via banner to recruit friends and family. The point of paying a subscription is to avoid this crap. I have to sit through ads and be pestered I'm out.
ShackStream: Breath of the Wild 9th Anniversary Trial of the Sword Super Challenge Race
3) Whiteout - Just enjoy the concept of gathering supplies for an incoming storm. Preparing for something awful was a neat concept. Plus I'm a loot goblin so hoarding supplies is right in my wheelhouse.
2) Hopeless Rescue - This felt like a proper journey. I tried not to stop for anything to maintain the urgency. Climbing TWM feels gruelling. This is another one that's great for trying to best your time.
1) Nomad - I really love pushing for the shortest time possible. Planning my route. Seeing how little time over the minimum I can hit. I was leaving the second each location was done and sprinting to the next. When I was done, I'd try and best that time.

Yeah, if you hit me with key enclosed and the key isn't enclosed, I'm probably out just to spite that approach.
Actually, I kind of want to dive back into Starfield as well.
So many games I need to play for work, which means I desperately want to revisit something old. I'd love a run through Fallout 4 or The Witcher 3 right now.
Gut health is a real thing. I learned all about it when I had a stomach ulcer about two years ago.
I would have been severely disappointed if you didn't.
The Long Dark's use of heights is superb. Carter Hydro Dam, countless log bridges, the train bridge, and these rope bridges. Even standing on the edge of the plane at the summit of TWM is quite the moment. Wowzers.
In the 80s did your roll your cigarette pack up in the sleeve of your t-shirt?
Season 3 of Night Agent was good. Some Jason Bourne stuff with a 24 vibe. If you're into that kinda thing it's good.
Haha, no. They want to pay like $10 for a shitty guest post about some casino BS. These are not legitimate offers.
I love telling folks that want a "paid post" on Shacknews that the fee is $1,000 USD for consideration, with no guarantee that we will ever post your article.
I'm surgical with a Little Bird. I know BS is going to compress the hell out of this, but try to imagine it looking crisp!
