I can't get into Apex, everyone is either is lv 50 with 99+ kills or lv 13 with 0. By the time you do encounter anyone they are armoured up so much that in the time to kill one, I always seem to get 1 shotted

Still though, bought a new mouse (Zowie EC1-B) and actually having a mouse that fits your hand is better than whatever has Lights or some insane Sensor that Logitech makes.

never thought i'd say this but i cannot stop playing Tetris 99 on the Switch. my roommate and I have spent probably 6-8 hours over the past week passing the controller to one another playing fucking tetris battle royale.

Has anyone tried Rimworld? I've been obsessed the past couple months. It's a space colony simulator. You start with a few crashlanded colonists and you have to build a colony from scratch. Each colonist has different stats and attributes and needs, and if you don't meet their needs they could have a mental break, which causes them to do all sorts of unproductive things like start fires, beat up prisoners, go on a drug binge (and probably get addicted), or slaughter your livestock. You're also raided by pirates and have to fight them off, but you can capture survivors and recruit them, or harvest their organs and butcher them and use their skin to make cowboy hats. It's your call!

It's definitely not for everyone, but holy shit I'm really enjoying it

Sounds fucking legend

Sounds kind of like Dwarf Fortress in space. Interesting.

Finished the Titanfall 2 campaign. Really good and fun. Probably the most fun I've had in a linear story campaign since Borderlands. Only about 6 hrs long too.

I'm going to start Mass Effect 2 for the 4th time tonight. Never have gotten past 1/4 of the way through.
Going to stick with it and on to ME3 after that.

Tetris 99 is super fun. Turns out my wife is like a tetris ninja. Ton of fun actually getting her to play a console game that isn't Super Mario 3.

I lowkey dig ME3 more than any of the others

The greatest shortcoming of the Mass Effect sequels is that they traded their space synth bleeps for more standard orchestral music!

After atleast 7 full Trilogy playthroughs i'm somewhat burnt out, but I still love that series.

Also, Resident Evil 2 on PC is such a good port especially with the OG soundtrack DLC. So happy.

I can't wait.

I'm about 1/2 way through ME2 and its been amazing. Can't wait to get home and put more time into it.
Thought it started pretty slow....which would explain why I started/re-started so many times.

The scope and depth of ME2 is refreshing. A fully fleshed out game that is complete. Something I've been looking for in a game (when compared to some modern games).
