2023 Gaming Diary

I haven't played any proper video game since the start of the month, but I've been playing a lot of The Palaces of Carrara at BGA. I really enjoy decisions in this game rn. It wasn't like that from the start. After learning it and playing my first game I was quite underwhelmed, but after that the game unfolded to me. It's very abstract and the theme is definitely pasted on but the rondel mechanism makes the game both tactical (you can't plan ahead in terms of resources) and strategic (you can plan where you want to build and react to your opponents long term). The game has a slower start and super quick end and it haven't overstayed its welcome yet.
I really would like to own a physical copy, but I would prefer the older edition fro Hans in Gluck in a smaller box and with the expansion over the newer bigger box from Game Brewer.

Misao of Commercial Excellence!

So this is what's the game about. Congrats, R_N!

2023 Gaming Diary

It's cool seeing so many updates here! Ofc, I haven't touched Soma Union since the start of the month. Not in mood for games I guess. Maybe my goal for this year should be to finish it.

Goaling It 2023

It's slightly bit late, the new lunar year, the year of the rabbit, has started a week ago, but not too late to spice it up with some properly juicy, overambitious and quickly abandoned resolutions. We all have 11 months to left to fulfill them and it clearly is easier to stop smoking in February than in January.

Last year, I think we skipped this thread. And it was a worse year for that. All of us can recall Misaos and lack of epic grandiose adventures (I guess epic and grandiose have similar meanings). Our health got worse and our kids meaner. Some of us even got addicted to anime (not me fortunately, I'm happy with smokos). So, we should renew this ancient tradition and set up some goals. They can be connected to gammak, rmn or to life in general.

I think I have many things I would like to accomplish this year. I finally managed to finish my degree earlier in January and I'm going to be 30 after all. But I also prefer to keep my lists short. 4 or 5 items are ideal. I don't think I have any gammak related goals. In my current situation, they would be naive at best. I don't have many rmn or games or media related goals tbh. I just want to stay some time without a computer, but that's not really a resolution. Here it is (important resolutions are bolded and secondary goals are in italics):

1. Travel to Vietnam for my friend's birthday party
2. Find a proper job
3. Rent a flat or a room with normal living standards
4. Finish and review Soma Union
5. Climb a route rated 7 or more

The first one is dependent on me finding the job soon enough and saving up enough money.
That's why the second goal is the most important and it directly connects to the third. After binge writing my thesis, my living conditions ain't the best. I don't have a lot of privacy, I don't have my own room and I'm moving between two cities very frequently. I don't need a well-paid job, but I need a regular income close to a single place, where I can have my stuff, sleep, cook and have some privacy.
My only gaming goal is humble for a reason.
The last one is sport related. I think this is a good year for getting better at climbing and more importantly working on my physical condition. The goal is to climb up a route a semi-decent rock climbing person can finish no sweat.

Dys: Eternal Space Jail RPG Review

Congrats on your first review of 2023!

I super wanted to try this few years ago, but it kept on crashing on my lappy (linux troubles with scripts). I'm glad that I finally know more about the game and that my good feeling about this was justified.

Keep on rocking, Addict.

I still love RMN

I still love RMN enough to necropost in random threads. I'm still thinking about making games, because it's really satisfying to talk about them here and to get comments on a brand new gamepage.
