2 alarms, but I’m up either at 4am or 5am most days.

Seeing MGS5 written down makes me want to go back and complete Act 2...4 years later.

I have both that and 7 on my PS3 but have only touched 7 so far...which I should get back to as I think I’m at the point where the remake ends...

Same after checking.

The dishwasher goes on every 1-2 days and I’ll hand wash some things daily.

If we did a D1P awards thread again, I’d throw by hat in the ring for ‘most vanilla’ user.

I still need to read the book.

With the Zelda anniversary today, I wanted to play something to mark the occasion. I settled on Link to the Past through Nintendo Online but I don’t know if it’s because I’ve played the opening few dungeons a lot, or that I’ve played ‘better’ versions of the top down Zelda formula in Links Awakening (Switch) and Link Between Worlds, but it just wasn’t happening for me. I’ve never finished the game before so I may just power through at some point - but because it’s so iconic and so has had most of the ideas recycled, it makes the game feel stale weirdly enough.

IGN was 2004 - 2010. Here was been 2010 - I often wonder what great things I’d have accomplished if I wasn’t constantly posting on a message board. I bet my Twitters followers would be more than 87.

It’s the price you pay for inclusivity, but one I’m willing to commit to.

I remember really enjoying the 3 weeks I didn’t have a job when I moved to the city I now live in. I literally just wakes around the town, exercised a lot, joined a new rugby team and caught up on about 3 games an a few series. By the end though I was definitely looking forward to starting work - now I get to enjoy the fun of summer holidays every year!

I’ve spent about 5 hours of my week of holiday working for when I’m back. The key is though it’s only 19 working weeks until the summer holidays.

This thread goes well with my much less useful thread about video game critiques. Good bump.

So, I’m very nearly at the end (though not quite) but over the last few weeks my wife and I have watched The Office (US) for the first time ever. As a sitcom, it’s pretty fantastic and very bingeable - although the first season or so is a bit of a struggle, same for this last one. I do have to say though, as a television show it isn’t a patch on the UK Office, but it’s head and shoulders above most of the shit I seem to watch.

I don’t know if that line of thinking or response really works anymore.

Best accountant on these boards, hands down.

I’ve played and enjoyed a few remakes (REmake, RE2, Ratchet and Clank, Tony Hawks 1&2) and I find they have a valid place in the world. Though that’s only if they use the content and the aspects that made the games great but bring them up to a modern standard.

It’s amazing that one little message board produced all of that.

She’s been playing it pretty much non-stop since I bought it, but I’m sure there will be a big drop off at some point.

I tried out Diablo 2 about 10 years ago and enjoyed it, though as I wasn’t part of that initial rush - I didn’t love it. I’d give it a go on the Switch but the fact they’ve said it will remain largely unchanged doesn’t exactly excite me - it’s a 21 year old game...

More South Park to try and finish it up, though it’s looking like that’ll be more of a next weekend thing. I’m still enjoying the game and it’s almost more enjoyable now I’m powerful enough to annihilate most enemies pretty quickly.

Based on what it’s like not really liking fold - I wish I could tap into that. I love food, I love cooking, I love eating it, I don’t eat a ridiculous amount but I find that if I don’t have something substantial at least for breakfast and lunch (usually porridge and then brown rice with vegetables and a protein) I won’t be able to function at work half as well as I do. I balance it out with three or so 4-5 mile runs a week and now the weather is improving, circuit training. A nutragrain bar and a water is what I’d have at break time.

Talking of things that still need to come to Switch, where the N64, GB and GC games at for Nintendo online?

I’m starting to enjoy the fact that profile and money are no longer the barrier between people being called out for the person that they are. I’ve worked with people that permeate a toxic culture and it’s very draining, so the less of that - the better.

I prefer to be overly active rather than diet restrictive. Thus the cycle of get fatter at winter and then get thin from about March continues. I’ve been putting more thought into my diet now though regarding portion size and I’m hoping if the UK gets Covid under control I can go to the gym pre-work, shower and then drive off next year.
