What are you all playing right now?

I never really tried Horizon Zero Dawn before.  Then I got my PS5, it came with Forbidden West and I was completely lost playing it with no experience with the first one.  So I downloaded Zero Dawn and I am so entranced with this game.  I now don’t know if I should hurry up and finish the game so I can start the sequel or if I should savor my experiences in this feral world that’s been created.

Savor it. They're both relatively short games anyway compared to other games.

Waiting for DU release next month.  The server will be reset, the world empty, everyone starting over.  Shouldn't take as long to rebuild since we're being allowed to keep our blueprints for structures and ships.

I don't know how people earn hidden trophies in games. I never have.

I think I'm going to replay Horizon Zero Dawn.

I'm hoping to get my new graphics card back in my desktop this week. I've been too busy testing hardware with an older system. I've installed Guardians Of The Galaxy for the occasion.

Let me know how the Captain Glory boss fight goes when you get to it. According to everyone online, it was a difficult area in the game. Too difficult for me, so I just deleted the game.

Astroneer, obsessively. They've finally given us a game-changing update that breathes whole new life into the game, so much so that it's been the only thing on my mind for weeks now, playing or thinking about it pretty much every chance I get.

The update itself is the addition of trains, and why that's so game changing is that so far we've been able to automate pretty much everything except for transport and logistics... until now. Now we can automate our mines and manufacturing to a whole new level with networks of trains and train stations, set to automatically load and unload cargo etc. The trains are also great for exploration and even better enjoying and re-enjoying the vibrant scenery of the game in whole new ways, whether that's with a journey to the centre of a planet through colourful caves and caverns, over steep hills and mountain tops, or even just your own private roller coaster (though more likely a mixture of all three )!

So yeah, I've been waiting for an update that would bring me back to the game and keep me there and I really think this is it. I've started the game from scratch and it's just a whole new experience with trains, and just basically exactly what this game needed to make it more long-term viable, so yeah, very happy right now.

This is obviously not my day.  I found out that Gigabyte won't ship their computer monitors to Minnesota, despite most of my short list consisting of their monitors.  And Best Buy wants $50 more for the one I was going to order.  Then I waited 20 minutes outside the building management office only to be told the person I needed to see wasn't in today.  And to cap things off, I got stung by a hornet on my way to Maplewood to donate plasma.

Playing Infamous: Second Son

So far, better than I thought it would be.

Ok, I tried playing "Way of the Hunter" and it was relaxing at first, but I guess I just got bored. I was out to hunt some pheasants, but it turns out that pheasants sleep between 8 am and 12 when they go out to find food and then they go to sleep again. They have cycles of sleep every day.
