Well. The nature of my backlog is like I wait for games to come down in price and by the time I get to them they're 10 years old haha.
I also have a habit of playing through the entire series before playing the newest one. I'm currently playing Legend of Heroes: A Tear of Vermillion which is the 4th game from Japan in that series but the 2nd to be released in US, SO I'm playing through it even though I don't like it and will beat the next two games to finally play Trails in the Sky which is the one I really probably should have started with.
I do that with all my games, like Doom Eternal looks cool and so does the upcoming Dark Ages, but I went back and played Doom 1 & 2. 64, then the updated remaster of Doom 1 & 2 when that came out, and now I'm working on Doom 3. I got one more whole Doom game before I even get to Eternal.
I was born i 85. Not much more wisdom I can give I'm afraid. I am a tech early adopter and a coder so I understand crypto it's just too volatile a market for me to care about. Wish I had invested in Bitcoin when someone asked me if I wanted to in 2012 though. Mostly my driving force for new tech adoption was my gaming habit. I had a colecovision, NES, Genesis, Playstation, Playstation 2, and all the systems from the next gen onward once I had job money.
I was actually just reading a book a couple months ago, Blasphemy Online where the US fell apart and and several new countries formed after the US fell and Cascadia WAS one of the countries... so that's neat I guess.
No. No it wasn't. At all. Literally a simple Google search will show you it is satire. In fact it started off as a segment ON the daily show. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0458254/plotsummary/
Yeha but the pessimist in me thinks of box's backwards compatibility where only the games they curated would work. Still can't play eternal sonata anymore.
Honestly almost everything works on my steam deck. The only things that don't work are online only games with anti-cheat, and I barely ever touch those. I could possibly make the leap on my main pc to be fully steamos
Closer to 100k. I still owe about 75k. I couldn't get anything on a 3 year plan. I'm on 5-10 years depending on the loan. My mortgage is about 2k a month and the repairs are another 1k a month, half my mortgage
Whenever I get back on my feet life seems to kick me down again. I never am good at saving, but every time I start to get my debt under control,pay off a loan or something, something else hits me that i need to take out another loan for, or i lose my job and have to struggle to pay the bills for a few months while racking up credit card debt. The house I moved to 3 years ago was the single worst financial decision I ever made, and I wound up having a day 1 plumbing emergency (6k), replacing the roof and all the windows (30k each), replacing the dish washer, clothes washer, and dryer (another 6k), having the sewer line collapse for 12k, finding out all the electrical outlets used aluminum wiring and were sparking during the winter when it got cold so another 7k, the finished basement started flooding and to get it waterproofed they had to rip out the finishing and that cost 7k to do, and the repairs to put it all back will be another 7k after I pay off this other loan I'm close to paying off. That's just the past 3 years but my life has been a Neverending series of crap like this.
I always thought of the point known as 'making it' was the point at which i could just go to the grocery store or a restaurant or a movie and just not worry about how much I was spending comfortable that I had enough. Never got there.
So... its an extraction shooter set in the oldest house? I'm game.
