Daggerheart: Core Rulebook

It's kind of interesting to be reading through this when I've already been actively playing the game for a few weeks, because I sort of know it all (or, at least, the important bits), but am also sort of still learning stuff. At least I'm definitely gaining knowledge about parts of the game I don't personally use right now (e.g. other classes, ancestries, and communities).

Video Games

Foolish Mortals
The point-and-click game I mentioned yesterday. I really did intend to finish Gray Matter first, but then I got so hyped up for this in the past 24 hours (and I had already been massively looking forward to it, as I said) that I couldn't help but dive straight in. And if you want to do the same (which you should), you can buy it on Steam or GOG.

Rogue Trooper Redux
Even after everything I wrote yesterday about games I should be playing, I still went and started this and sunk 90 minutes into it. I bought it on a whim a few weeks ago because I've been enjoying the strips in 2000 AD, and the same thing today prompted me to actually fire it up. Reviews of it were mixed, but they seemed to focus on a lack of difficulty and, well, that's fine by me. I'm not expecting great things, and enjoying it enough so far. The only real issue is it's not been optimised for controllers, so every onscreen prompt is like "press ? for action". Which button do they mean? Press 'em all 'til you find out!
