I got the Signal State and it's starting to kick my brain's rear end. Basically? Its the post apocalypse. All technology is broken except for modular synthesizers so you have to make them do everything now. HAVE FUN :v

If you're getting old like me but still like an occasional long gaming session a good sit/stand is a total gamechanger. Just get a good one that's not wobbly. I have an Uplift but there's a number of good brands. I love it to death and will never go back to a normal desk. It's got all the customizable options a good nerd wants like cable trays and ports, usb/power plugs on the desk surface, tons of different sizes, shapes, materials, etc.

I just got gifted Grim Dawn; in Titan Quest I loved going for a maximum pet build. Is that still viable in GD? Can I have six critters of dubious value running around me at all times while I do almost nothing?

After that you can look at all the other trees and think about what their pets offer you that Necro doesn't cover.

this Steam sale didn’t get me too badly…because I’d already bought a ton of stuff from reading GOTY-thread lists  not pictured: the rest of the ETS2 DLC I didn’t have, I guess? must have been in a fugue state

I barely dipped into my wishlist, just picked up a handful of games: Already beat En Garde (super fun game btw), picked up REMAKE INTERGRADE last minute when I just got sucked into playing FF7 on my Deck for a whole-rear end day. I'm probably going to play Remake on my PC, but still, Final Fantasy 7 good, y'all Expanse sits off to the side, waiting to be picked up like a disused spaceman toy

My steam sale's purchases have a clear theme  I played 0 and I'm finishing 7 because it was the start of a new story. I think it's time to play the others so when I'm finished I can play Gaiden and 8.

Had a dumb impulse late last night and bought the "Source saga" collection of Divinity Original Sin 1 and 2 on GOG. I already own all the other Divinity games so why not, even if half of them yet sit completely untouched. So there's a last little bit more for the sales.

They're really good games if you're a sucker for turn-based combat. Just be warned, the first D:OS has this really overwrought, florid style of writing that I personally found grating.

DOS1 has an incredible soundtrack too, Kirill Pokrovsky(RIP) is sorely missed in their latest games I think. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XybrZGtxuU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M89kPrikPXI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9McLM852-nY

Ugh, I'm weak! I kept telling myself that not only do I have an enormous backlog of quality games, I was also gifted Sifu and Divinity Original Sin 2, which are already going to keep me busy for lord knows how long. But when the final moment arrives, panic sets in and I suddenly got a craving for cool 2D platformers, and before you know it, my cart was filled with Gravity Circuit, Steel Assault, SANABI and CULTIC (ok that last one doesn't fit the 2D platformer scheme but it was just so cheap) Also went ahead and pulled the trigger on STRANGER OF PARADISE FINAL FANTASY ORIGIN, but from the Epic store since it was on sale and I had the Epic Coupon as well. And the backlog grows ever deeper...

DOS1 is great and its just long enough that I've played through (hopefully) 3/4s twice and hopefully I'll get back and end it this time "Yaheetech" sold me the best cheapo tiny pc desk at £35

I assume that's why he's selling a video game, yes. Anything to get more money from his rubes.
