Video Games

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition

I was desperate to keep playing, but also didn't want to sink quite so much time into this today, so managed to limit myself to just two hours. Hilarious how, just a few weeks ago, I was still considering that a "long session" on other games.

...oh, but then I loaded it up in the evening to "just do something quickly" and ended up playing for another three hours. Oops. That was partly stupidity: I messed some stuff up, tried to forge ahead, it got worse, so I had to load a save game and repeat a bunch of stuff. And then I messed up differently and had to reload again. I started saving more often at that point — I hadn't needed to before because there was enough autosaving going on, and I'd never really ballsed anything up badly enough to want to reload. Always good to learn.

Funny: I thought I would've been playing Foolish Mortals a tonne this week, possibly even finishing it today (if not sooner), and instead I've barely started it and sunk more time into Skyrim than it likely would've taken to finish FM. You never can tell which way you're gonna go, huh?
