Baldur’s Gate 3 on my partner’s days off when he wants to play games, that game is That Game, so freaking good, I think about it all the time. Because I don’t want to progress the game past our co-op session’s progress, and I’ve replayed Act 1 solo a few times over by now, I am back with good ol’ Skyrim otherwise.
I know it is a meme, but I genuinely have the thing of only modding and not playing Skyrim. I am proud to say I am at a point where I just play, instead of finding more mods. I feel like I have a pretty stable modlist, seldom crash, and this is because last winter I spent a lot of time with the crashlogger thing weeding out problematic mods. It is really hard not to go to nexus, I actually don’t visit it anymore at all, it is intense FOMO when I see others’ screenshots. My main achievement is that upon returning to Skyrim after a break, I even picked up my same character instead of starting over with fresh mods–it was like, not giving up progress.
The original was to be focused on the female character navigating the twisted misogyny of entertainment, but they switched showrunners after filming 80% of the first season, to the guy who made Euphoria, who had everything rewrote/reshot to instead glorify it all instead of subverting/fighting it. It’s basically the opposite of what it was supposed to be. It was very girl-focused under a female showrunner, switched to guy-focused under a male showrunner. Rolling Stone put it as explicitly as The Weeknd “who is co-creator, felt the show was heading too much into a ‘female perspective.’”
"Four sources say that Levinson ultimately scrapped Seimetz’s approach to the story, making it less about a troubled starlet falling victim to a predatory industry figure and fighting to reclaim her own agency, and more of a degrading love story with a hollow message that some crew members describe as being offensive. "
It is hard not to celebrate this cancelation. Knowing some of what the show was originally meant to be before it switched showrunners? It never had to be this way.
The game is so much more lively for it. Lae’zel’s VA showed clips and pics on tiktok from the process, it’s really cool. (Edit: @thisisdevo)
There is the People of Color community. https://beehaw.org/c/poc There have been indigenous related topics posted there. My personal 0.02, being Native myself, is that there would really have to be a critical mass of Native people on here for a specific group here to be worth it imo, and the PoC community is pretty slow as is post-wise. If it was overflowing with Native content drowning out everyone else, it would be more needed.
I like that they released this. I am the most basic having first picked a Half-Elf (sorcerer, no less). My SO picked Githyanki (bard) so he gets more unique points. The Astarion rejection section is hysterical to me!! Also, I cannot believe hundreds of people beat the game in a weekend? Mindblown.
I have been working on a personal Ghost blog and this is amazing news for me!! Ghost is a joy to use. I am curious about the performance requirements, how it will work with self hosted, I have mine on a cheap VPS.
