The Doormaker just destroyed me.

I just fought the Doormaker for the first time since he's been changed and he absolutely stomped me into the ground. I legitimately have no idea how to beat him. I'm not sure how to mitigate his various gimmicks.

My and my husband's HTPC has some games that aren't starting up anymore on it. I'm going to make time today to fix them so we aren't just stuck playing Mario Kart 8. It's a box I built back in 2015 with Debian as the distro, Kodi as the frontend, with the lutris addon to run games straight from Kodi. I am not looking forward to looking for a lutris replacement when it comes time to do a code name upgrade for debian, since the version of lutris included there will be partially slop.

For a bit of a gaming update of what I've been playing here lately, that's been Windrose.

In fact, I beat the EA content yesterday morning. I have a total of 78.2 hours into the game, and this is just an Early Access with three biomes currently.

This game grabbed me and I couldn't put it down. Now, it's making it hard to find something new to play since I finished it.

If you like survival games with great content, then this is definitely for you. Throw in that it's pirate based too.

This game is much like Enshrouded, which was my Game of the year when it came it out two years ago.

Windrose is so far my Game of the Year for 2026 and it's going to be hard to beat it I'm afraid.

Here’s a game you can play: See if you can find a single example of Donald making an insult that cannot easily be applied to him. He’s called women cows when he’s a McDonalds-chugging fatass. He’s called women “horse face” when he has a head that barely looks human. He’s called people “low IQ” when he can’t speak so good and he does not understand how percentages work. He’s called people liars even though he’s a compulsive liar who can’t be trusted to get even basic facts straight. He’s called people cowards even though he’s a draft dodger. He’s called people crooked when, well, he’s Donald Trump. Donald is the most thoroughly and deeply flawed person I am aware of. So yeah, he really does live in the glassiest of houses.

Started playing Cairn, which is a sort of a futuristic lite climbing simulation / adventure game. I've free soloed in the past and am now mostly bouldering at the gym these days - and I'd say the climbing mechanics are about as realistic (that is, allow the suspension of disbelief) as you can go and still be a game for casual players instead of a full-blown hardcore simulator. Granted, the protagonist can achieve a level of flexibility that makes me wince and what is beyond even the most flexible climbers I know at the gym, but overall it feels decent enough. And while you do place each limb separately on a hold, it's no QWOP - sometimes the holds look quite weird, but it's a game (and quite frankly, I've used holds that would look bloody weird to an outside observer). I'm not a fan of the survival mechanics, but those can be turned off - and maybe at some point some one will make a mod with more interesting survival gameplay.

Loving MMOs in 2026 is an exercise in frustration, grief, and moving on

Allow me to get a little existential.
