Devs are scared they can't compete for GOTY with games like Blue Prince and Clair Obscura

I'm on Day 40 now. I "beat" the game on Day 19. I am nowhere close to done with this game.

By all accounts, the following two seasons have been covering those tabs handily

Yeah that is the one thing; the films have always had seemingly way too good of a cast. The new one even has Rosamund Pike! I can think of a few British comedians I'd like to see less than Corden, but yeah, that's a select group.

I'm more of a Lizzy Caplan gal myself, but then, that's probably surprising to exactly nobody. Still, "Oceans Eleven with stage magicians" should've been foolproof. Should've been...

I love that this franchise continues to plow forward based entirely on how promising the premise sounds, because it certainly couldn't be because of their actual quality. At least they're finally using "Now You Don't", which should have been the title of the second movie, but clever writing has...

The bolded phrase here is doing a lot of heavy lifting. "Tolerance", such as it is, may be the "only difference", but when it comes to adapting anything from one medium to another (we see this most commonly with books to film, but we still do have many examples of adapting TTRPGs to CRPGs)...

It's not even so much about not liking the rules of 5e as a tabletop RPG. But some of those rules play better in adaptation than others, particularly in the form of a CRPGs. Attunement is one of those rules that I absolutely love at the table but would feel completely dreadful in BG3.

The process of playing Blue Prince so far: Day 1: Okay, this is neat, it's like Betrayal at House on the Hill Day 2: Wait... was that there yesterday? Day 3: Ohhhhhhh, it sounds like blueprints! Day 5: I can go outside? Day 7: She went missing?? Day 10: Stop giving me $#@&$!$ bathrooms!! Day...

Skyrim run is going well so far. Snagged the free pre-fab homestead from sending that sad Nord lady to Sovngard, which almost feels like cheating. It is a bit out of way which it makes it less ideal for crafting, so I'll probably still buy the house in Whiterun at least. Put off killing the...

I can't speak for the Oregon/Washington parts of the PNW, but where I live a heat wave is when the temp cracks 80. The only places with AC are the mall and the movie theatres, and even with the latter it's hit or miss depending on the screen.

Yep, that's more or less what triggered my own arachnophobia, that is extremely traumatising. Not the worst "trauma from waking up to baby animal shenanigans" I've heard, there's always my wife's story...

I will say, this has made me want to replay Skyrim again. Maybe this'll be the time I actually beat a Bethesda game

Don't forget the other side of that, too "<deadly pirate game> is nothing like D&D! How dare you!"

For the record, I don't think anybody who hates TLJ is a bad person, or is someone who either would in reality or explicitly do support the Empire/First Order. And I don't think TLJ dislikes anybody except for bad people who would and/or do support the Empire/First Order, which I think is also...
