Still on RDR2 to kick the week off. Saw Oliver in Divinity 2 last week and I've had that game sitting in my library for about two years now -- might actually load it up and see what I've been missing. Got the kids Saturday so that'll probably derail everything, but in a good way.

Work kept me busier than expected this week so didn't get in as many hours as I'd planned. Still made time for RDR2 most nights. Seeing Oliver mention Divinity 2 Lone Wolf -- I've had that game sitting in my library for two years. One of these days.

Got the kids this weekend so the plan changed. Ended up spending an hour helping build something in Minecraft they've been working on for weeks. Not complaining at all. Might try to get into RDR2 once they're down for the night.

Marcus kept sending me clips for about three months straight and every time I said I'd look at it later. Eventually I loaded Deep Rock Galactic just to stop getting the messages. Turns out he was right and I should have started it two months earlier. He never lets me forget it.

Back on RDR2 this week. Started a new run, trying to actually do more of the side stuff I skipped the first time round. Marcus keeps telling me to start something new but I'm not done with this one yet.

Valheim does this really well. First time I walked into the Black Forest at night it actually felt unsettling. RDR2 too — the forests around Roanoke Ridge are genuinely dense, like the trees have weight to them. I've spent more time than I should have just riding through them.

Kids headed back to their mum's this afternoon. Got the house to myself for once and genuinely can't decide what to load up. Been going back and forth between doing another chapter of RDR2 or finally jumping into Deep Rock Galactic with Marcus. Anyone else getting some time in tonight or is it...

Long week. Didn't get much time but squeezed in an hour of Valheim tonight. Still feels good. Sometimes that's enough.

Didn't get home until nearly 8 tonight. Just wanted something to load up fast and not think too hard. Ended up back in Fallout 4.

Solid taste. Witcher 3 and BG3 are probably two of the best RPGs ever made.

Cult of the Lamb is so good. Picked it up in a previous sale and it's been one of my most played games this year.

Long week. Got home tonight, kids are sorted, just wanted to load something up and switch off for a bit. Sometimes that's all gaming needs to be.

Bought Skyrim again on sale last month. Already own it on two other platforms. Not sure what I was thinking but here we are.

Had a clear out and found my old shelf of PC games in big boxes. Baldur's Gate, Half Life, Morrowind, all with proper manuals and maps inside. Nobody buys physical PC games anymore obviously but do you still buy physical for console? Or has everything gone digital for you?

Deep Rock Galactic if you haven't tried it. Better with a mate but it holds up solo too. Marcus got me into it a while back and I've put probably 200 hours in at this point.

Back on Witcher 3. Started a new save a couple weeks ago -- hadn't played it since probably 2021. Still holds up, maybe better than I remembered. Had a long job today so I needed something I could sink into without thinking too hard.

Valheim for me. First time I played it I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing and kept dying to things that should not have been a problem. Marcus walked me through the rough shape of how progression works and after that it made sense. One of those games that really doesn't want to...

The restriction runs are the ones that actually stick with me. Did a no-fast-travel playthrough of RDR2 a while back just to see if the map felt different. It does. You notice things you'd normally just sprint past. Not something I'd do every time but it made that run feel like a separate game...

Third playthrough now and I still stop to look around. There's a stretch near the Flat Iron Lake late in the game where the light comes through the trees and honestly I just stood there for a minute. The hunting and fishing too — spent three hours one night just messing around near Clemens...

Honestly I don't know enough about this stuff to give you a confident answer. Built my PC about three years ago, googled the sweet spot for the CPU I had, bought that. It runs everything I play without any issues so I've never revisited it. If you're noticing actual stutters or frame drops it's...
