This week has been quite mundane.

I played a bit of Risk of Rain Returns. Nothing new there.

I also played a few Itch.io horror games. The only one worth mentioning is Microbial Sector. You are analyzing a bunch of objects and marking what microbes are present. that’s mostly it, it’s pretty short but got a good spook.

How are things for everyone else?

New Games I'm Playing

My friends Jerry and Ryan both told me that Borderlands 4 is cool and fun once you get far enough into the game. Like the comic suggests, I bounced right off the intro. I kept getting shitty sub machine guns while running through featureless grey rooms. Eventually I got to a shack and that’s when Claptrap started talking and I had to stop.  It’s possible it gets good but I’m just not wired to chew through the bad bits to get to the good stuff.

 

Borderline

Lego Voyagers is great.  I heard it was three or so hours total, but I clocked in at just about five.  Some of the coolest parts of it were not "gameplay" but just being there in the world.  It's very impressionistic; there are actual lego pieces that look like scorpions, or fish, but Light Brick would rather evoke them with even simpler shapes.  It also made my computer run so hot that it shut completely off and wouldn't turn back on.  And that made me think about Borderlands.
