Haven't been able to play as much this last week, but I've still been putting hours into The Outer Worlds. Now that it's opened up, I've been a lot more engaged. I'm digging the setting, and while it's not really reinventing the wheel anywhere, I still find myself thinking pretty deeply about my decisions and thinking about how I want to handle the various factions. The combat is also a lot more manageable now that I've leveled up and got a solid weapon preference to blow things away with. I did find two Motion Plus attachments for my Wii motes along with Wii Sports Resort at my job and played a few hours of that with my girlfriend. I also went back in time a bit further and played some SSX Tricky.

I like everything about it except for the neck. It doesn't fit the head right. It also didn't seem as bad in the manga.

Always wanted to see A.D. Police. Maybe I should follow your example ?

Episode 5

Finished the first Higurashi series and started the first few episodes of Kai. I may watch Rei finally, but I pretty much plan to finish Kai and then move right onto Gou.

I will never know the glory of One Piece and I am at peace with that.

Literally me

I'm excited for reactions to Bubblegum Crisis 2040. It's not nearly as good as the original OVAs, but I have a lot of nostalgia with that series. It also has one of the most hype anime OPs of all time.

Nope. We're still probs fucked until like September.

The combat in Outer Worlds is kicking my ass. Part of it is probably because I'm not the greatest FPS player, so not having the RPG benefit of something akin to V.A.T.S. is making me get slaughtered a lot. It probably doesn't help that I'm on hard, but fuck. I've died multiple times at almost every encounter so far. I've heard this gets easier as you level up and get better gear soon, and I've still had a blast with the work I've put in so far. The victories feel satisfying, that's for sure.

I actually really enjoy her as a character element, and chances are your opinions will soften on her. But just saying, I was at peace with her character in the manga and was actually telling my girlfriend to chill out on the Gabi hate when we started this season...and a couple episodes later and I'm feeling the hate train all over again.

Christmas Haul -Ghost of Tsushima This is the main one I've been playing. Started out kind of simple and felt like maybe the game was over hyped. A couple hours later and I'm getting distracted from distractions. I'm probably putting a lot of time into this one -The Outer Worlds Just started this one today. Haven't gotten very far, and I've heard mixed opinions since it's release, but I love the Fallout games, so I have decent hopes with what I've played so far. No VATS is gonna take some adjusting, though. -Spyro Reignited Trilogy Started the first game on Sunday, but I'm largely saving this one to play with a partner who loves this series, especially since I've played 1 and 3 in recent years. Might tear into Ripto's Rage, though. -DOOM Eternal Haven't popped this one on yet, but I've been hyped to get my hands on it. -Trials of Mana Same as above but more so -Persona 5 Royal Got this one for myself with a Black Friday deal. Same as above, but I don't know if I want to get around to this until I finish my playthrough of Persona 3. -Katamari Reroll Bought this as part of Nintendo's holiday sale. Loved the originals when they first came out, and I no longer have my ps2 copy, so this was a pretty easy buy. Have only rolled up a couple stars so far, but it's as satisfying as ever. I also bought a bunch of games on the PSN recently, but I don't remember what all of them were. I know MediEvil, Control, Hitman 2, and Dark Cloud were a part of them.

Been rewatching the original Higurashi and planning to go through Rei to refresh myself on everything for the new series.

AoT @ Tassi

My girlfriend and I literally had the same reaction when we were browsing Amazon Prime. About to watch the first episode after I finish dinner.

You've got to be kidding me

I swear that man could have a goose shitting out golden eggs in front of him, and he'd still run from the money.

Also, after watching the Kenny segment, I'm seeing how much of Impact I can get through without skimming. It seems like Josh has toned down his voice recently and sounds a bit more natural. His first few years in Impact were hard to sit through, like he was trying to add bass to his voice. I know he was heel through part of that, but that also wasn't a great excuse.

At times, there can be a disconnect between the scientific and the shonen aspects. I think the manga starts finding better ways to pin the action and the science together. But the superhuman abilities don't exactly go away.

I'll say Dr. Stone gets even better past the point where the first season left off. Some really intriguing discoveries and some more characters that are introduced that become pretty vital(one in particular I'm thinking of). But I'm also the resident Dr. Stone mark, so take my words with a sizable grain of salt

My girlfriend and I have recently been catching up on Slime Datta Ken. We're four episodes away from finishing the first season, so this is perfect timing. Will be watching AoT and Dr. Stone, of course. Really excited for the latter more than AoT.

Welcome to the club

I've heard the opinion before, so maybe not particularly unpopular.
