Finished Origins. Ninety-plus hours. Some parts were harder than I remembered. Without trying, only earned less than half of all available trophies. Which is why I can never platinum, because looking at what I have to do in order to earn those trophies I just don't want to invest that kind of time and effort. Other than the season pass for the DLCs, I didn't spend any extra for in-game purchases.
Now, onto Odyssey, which I know will take longer to complete.

Talking to ChatGPT about my CPU choice for my gaming computer. A 9700X offers the best bang for the buck, but a 7800X3D is a little more future-proof.

Metaphor Re Fantazio is leaving Game Pass, so I'm trying it out to see if I like it. A lot of intro material to plow through first.

"Operation Epic Furious" All the cool kids are playing it. It's a free browser game where you get to play as the orange Hitler as he lays down victories and fills his bank account.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

It's going to take me longer to finish AC: Odyssey because I have to sit around and wait for bounties to run down naturally. At least it gives me an opportunity to do away with mercenaries.
Without the x2 money boost, I need to conserve my stash for upgrades.

One thing I do love about Odyssey that wasn't included in Valhalla is the "no damage while falling".

There should be a mod for AC games where Samual L Jackson's voice is heard every time you encounter a snake.

Installing Forza 6. The rewind feature from Forza 5 is a real game-changer for me.

ChatGPT is sweet-talking me into installing Bazzite on my gaming PC.
