                    Race 3/3 in Playoffs Round of 16
                    Carolina Cup Series @ Bristol Motor Speedway.

                    Starting Position: 2nd
                    Stage 1 Finish: 5th
                    Stage 2 Finish: 6th
                    Race Finish: 5th

                    Good on short runs, but we struggled on the long run at the end of the race. Still a top-5 finish, and we're advancing to the next round of the playoffs.

In front of me are mesas and mountains, with mists forming around the bases, it's night, there's small settlements glowing a greenish hue in the night. A sliver of a crescent moon is visible just above the mountains in the background.

It's magical.

                                        Finally got round to finishing again. Normal mode takes too long and Easy mode is too easy 🤷🏽‍♀️ Anyway, I had the most bizarre MVP list this time! 😆

                                        Anyway, my top 5 MVPs this time were:

                                        5. Nolan
                                        4. Soren Lorenson
                                        3. Oscar (my Oscar!)
                                        2. Leonardo

                                        Who was number one? You're thinking Ike, aren't you?

I installed the last EP I bought, Road to the Black Sea, I think it was, the one that goes to Turkey. But then when I loaded the game, the roads weren't connected to the rest of my map!

                                                  Luckily, Going East was on half price, so I got it and finally used up that 17p that's been sitting on my account since last year 😅

                                                  I'm very much a goal orientated gamer. I get bored of open play easily. So I'm trying to unlock all the cities and as many of the roads as I can.

                                                  Back when I used to play , I just played it the same every time. Keep their needs met, get them good grades, get them promoted.

                                                  Other people would actually have their act out stories, like there was one player who had a grumpy old dude who would kidnap kids off the street and then lock them in the basement and force them to paint so he could sell the paintings. And I used to wonder, why can't I come up with stories, why do I play every family as goal orientated instead of letting them have a story? 😅 Is this an thing?

                                                                  The song is still well-known as antifascist. It was sung as a protest last year by progressive members of the European Parliament during a visit by Viktor Orban, Hungary’s far-right prime minister.

                                                                  But a number of people noted online on Friday that a version appears on a Spotify playlist meant for Groypers, the followers of Nick Fuentes, the white nationalist who occupies a political space to the right of, and in opposition to, Mr. Kirk.

The vessel, assembled piece by piece from expedition milestone rewards, stretches across the center of the frame, its industrial design bristling with heavy thrusters, cylindrical engines, and reinforced metallic plating. Glowing blue exhaust trails shoot from its rear, cutting bright lines into the dark teal backdrop of space. The Corvette’s hull is a mix of deep steel tones with yellow hazard-striping accents and luminous red and blue highlights, giving it a rugged but high-tech look.

Beneath the ship, a massive planet with a deep blue surface looms, streaked with cloud formations and faint light reflections, suggesting a watery or icy world. In the distance, a ringed planet with striking bands curves around a smaller Earth-like orb, the rings gleaming against the starlit background. Floating nearby, a solitary asteroid adds to the sense of vast, unpredictable space. In the bottom-left corner, the HUD notes the Euclid Galaxy, anchoring the setting of this adventure. The scene captures both the scale of interstellar travel and the pride of piloting a custom-built Corvette, a testament to the progress made through the expedition’s milestones.

The head of the plant is styled to look like a giant gaping mouth, with a very chair like angle, and the interior is red and white stripes, as deckchairs are typically portrayed with. There is also a cocktail glass to the side being held by one of the plants vines.

The text to the right of the picture reads "Folding Chaptrap. Good while it lasts"

                                                                                                      I played it nonstop for 5? hours and got through several areas. I recruited Lune and Maelle. I made it to the Gestral village.

                                                                                                      I had some fun with the game but i don't think i'm going back.

                                                                                                      I dislike the story and characters. Neither "legally distinct Robert Pattinson" or "Cool Asian Sorceress" or "Vanille (FF13) + Rikku (FF10) = win?" interest me visually or personality wise. I like playing physically strong characters. Give me a warrior with a big axe or a sword or a monk who fights with their bare fucking hands. Instead I'm forced to play with only the characters i would usually merely tolerate.

                                                                                                      Setting up his sepia-toned gf in the prologue with a setting made out of proper nouns Let me know what kind of story i was in for.

                                                                                                      I enjoyed the gameplay for the dodge/parry system and the builds, but the cutscenes consistently bored me. Everything is so whispy and regretful and dramatic and it demands a gravitas that i refuse to give it. I ended up skipping cutscenes cause they all move. so. slowly.

                                                                                                      The music is very explicitly unenjoyable for me. The "Humming and chanting" soundtrack fell flat for me.

                                                                                                      Finding/Trying badges and their badge points system was fun! I liked customizing builds looking for synergy. I played on normal difficulty and really enjoyed learning enemy timing.

                                                                                                      The badges "pictos and lumina" system combined with the dodge/parry mechanic, convinced me that it resembles Nothing so much as "Paper Mario gameplay dressed up like Final Fantasy 10 or 13."

                                                                                                      By 6 hours in/Gestral village i realized I'd gotten what i wanted/needed out of the mechanics but was unlikely to get anything else out of additional time with the story or characters, so i'm dropping it.

                                                                                                      It's a very artistic game and those generally do very little for me.

                                                                                                      I appreciate the recommendation!

Women, femmes and nonbinary people are not physiologically less interested in or skilled at competitive gaming than a player who lives as a dude. Gender on its own has no bearing on how quickly a person can click a mouse, scan a screen or strategize in high-intensity situations, and lines of code react the same no matter how an individual player identifies."
