Hello everybody, it's Monday and I hope all of ya are having a fine day  What's everyone up to? Any interesting plans for the week? Regardless of your schedule, I hope all of you have a smooth and relatively stress-free time. I know I've got a lot on my plate right now that I have to sort through and a tight deadline to get it done by (mainly getting in touch with an attorney for an appeals case) and that has been stressing me out a bunch. It's frustrating because it's largely just sitting here waiting for replies back while the deadline is probably the 6th of Feb or so and bleh, I just want others to be having a better, or at least less frustrating, time. Stay gold, everybody.

I’m juggling like five pretty sizeable video games right now (Nier Automata, Bloodborne, Morrowind, Pillars of Eternity, new Final Fantasy XIV patch), odds are I don’t finish any of them. Such a bad habit

I've done it twice now, last week, and it went pretty well, but I'm streaming 3d environment art so there's lots of potential for, like, an occasional hour of really boring uv unwrapping or whatever. Streaming is fun but it's really out of my comfort zone (which is part of the fun) but that also means I'm not super great at it yet.

Expect My Mom posted:let me know if you learn shogi The hardest part of learning shogi is learning a set of kanji, and then learning that set upside-down. Other than the generals, and more pieces having limited backward mobility, the piece movement is basically chess. Knowing chess does help, the same basic tactical ideas apply in a lot of cases. After a couple days staring at the pieces I finally memorized them and could play a really poor game of shogi. I can beat the DS Clubhouse Games AI, but not the easiest difficulty on any of the dedicated shogi games I've tried.

I always found the Tomb Raider series obsession with killing Laura in increasingly disturbing ways to be very strange. Dead Space has the same thing. Sure its supposed to be a horror game but once you get to Dead Space 2 it starts feeling uncomfortable.

The first Tomb Raider game ends with you in a flesh citadel fighting an Atlantean Goddess that made a giant fleshless legless golem baby that wants to eat you. The whole thing is very disturbing.

I've always assumed that Shogi would be an incredibly slippery slope game, even more than most old board games already are, because of the mechanic of using captured pieces. Like, losing a piece both reduces your options and increases your opponent's, unlike in chess where it "merely" hurts you. And, on a slightly related note, if you want to play the oldest board game for which we have rules, here it is: https://www.yourturnmyturn.com/java/ur/index.php The way they figured out the rules was by deciphering a letter some guy sent describing his house rules for a variant of the game, then using that to figure out the normal rules and checking every ancient board they had to see which one worked with those rules. The absurd thing is that the one surviving board is 4500 years old but the letter describing the rules comes from a full thousand years later. Cool stuff.

Go is great overall but having to determine who won a game by developing a gut feel for it or doing an insane amount of tedious counting suuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks

I quit at the second ending of Hollow Knight, having to beat the first end boss each time you want to challenge the second one was a bridge too far. Feel like I'm getting close to the end of Pyre, which is OK because the SOTC remake is coming out next week and Monster Hunter is starting to look pretty good.

I'd say it's an adventure movie staple to have people die horrible deaths, and also an adventure game staple just look at Prince of Persia and Out of this World. Like any of the old Indiana Jones films would be a soft R if remade today but with functionally zero changes, Indie straight up shoots people in the head with bloody exit wounds. Also Tomb Raider 2013 ain't got poo poo on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DwAaPwHT8g FirstAidKite posted:"Heya, just wanted to let you know that the attorney that will represent if he gets your records will need to pay us if he wants access to your medical records, so now you have to get in contact with him to see if he's going to pay before representing and if he isn't then you're going to have to pay instead" fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff gently caress this dumb system of annoying poo poo, I just want SSI dammit. It should only be a couple bucks, they are literally xeroxing these things. If a physician charges you more for a copy of your records beyond what you could do at the library then something is fishy.
