Got up at 6 am fully refreshed. Logged into work stupid early and finished all my stuff by about 9 am.

Still logged in but playing video games on my PC.

I think this is a good Friday

What are you playing?

I've been playing the demo on steam of Tactical Breach Wizards. A turn based strategy game from the guy who did Heat Signature, where you play a few magical wizards uncovering a conspiracy, with assault wands. It's to be released in August. I am actually a little hyped lol

That game looks awesome!

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 1 points 5 months ago

Right! The demo is free and I defo recommend it! The art style is so cool, and blasting people out of windows is so dang addictive (the dev has a thing for defenestration, I think it's in all his games lol). It's funny, and fun.

Dragon Age Inquisition actually. Got it for free, and it's a nice time killer.

Fuck I love that game. Played DA: Origins on the 360, and while 2 is meh, Inquisition is my favourite.

Shouldn't have romanced Solas. The Bull is where it's at tbh. He's got the horns to grab onto haha.

The world building is sick, characters are well written, and gameplay is impactful. Love it, glad you're enjoying it! It gets hate online, but I think it's great haha

Shadow of the Erdtree?

I tried Elden Ring when it came out and could not get into it at all. Gameplay was fine, but the lack of a story (a cohesive one that was explicit) ruined it for me.

I'm playing Dragon Age Inquisition. It was free on Epic games a while back and it's pretty fun.
