    the fam thing on watmm looks a bit silly. kinda like tarantino pretending to be a black guy.

    Who's to say that he's not black? 

     

     

    lets say he was. he'd def be very conscious about being on a forum with an overwhelming amount of skinny white bearded jesus fans. actively downplaying his black funkyness because those sensitive skinnies prolly wont understand him because of all their first world  - i'm white and entitled - problems.

     

    Or maybe Wumbo Man and Juvith Sith are related

    Hate this kind of limited shit...I will be the one to pay the plane ticket price's for this second hand

     

    Just don't buy it fam

     

     

    no chance...missing any of his releases sends me loopy

     

    What is the most you've paid for one of his releases? If you don't mind the question that is, no need for an exact figure.

  3. Alien: Isolation is fucking great. the A E S T H E T I C S.

     

    I ran facefirst into a xeno at 3am this morning because I stumbled into a box on the far side of a big empty lobby away from it. first real scare I've had in a game in a long time.

     

    Playing that game with the dynamic sound range on and hearing huge volumes of bassy sirens rumble out suddenly while being plunged into darkness were terrifying if great times.

     

    60fps on PC makes the xeno so much more scary too.

  4. Will keep an eye out for LTROI Spi, see what it's like.

     

    Reading Brief Interviews with Hideous Men on my kindle and I already like it much more than I did anything in Oblivion. The stories felt like they were trying too hard to be difficult in Oblivion but BIWHM seems totally natural, wonderful prose and funny, despite the often morbid / heinous topics.

     

    In real world books: after the hugeness of Jerusalem, I am reading Oranges are not the only fruit by Jeanette Winterson, which is very small (the size of a pocket bible!).

  5. gonna give Let It Die a go tonight... sounds like it has some interesting Dark Souls esque mechanics... I haven't played any Grasshopper games before so I don't have any reference to the type of combat they have

     

    I'm still totally confused about the f2p thing though, I haven't heard anything about how they monetise it. I'm just hoping there's no pay2win nonsense.

     

    Oh poop, another reason to get a PS4. Come back and let me know how good it is, please? Big Suda fan, I am.

  6. Finished Jerusalem, all 1174 pages of it (and the four page acknowledgements). Review: quite good. Fairly long, but worth it, sort of like Pynchon but instead Moore happily explains to you his references rather than expecting you to go down to the library yourself. Offers a nice alternative idea of the afterlife, which I've found I now consider to be my preferred form of it.

     

    Also continuing to read Ted Chiang, and he is pretty good too. Story of your Life deserves its praise.

  7. Yeah, Barker is unashamedly British, obsessed with small town life / characters. After reading a whole bunch of American books where I just about understand certain references / nuances, it's nice to get everything for once. :cattears:

  8. Person I work with who broke leg might not return to his job, which I currently oversee in his absence. If he does not, boss has told me he will negotiate a raise for me and take over the role full time (raise is a maybe, he said, but I was gonna ask for one if it looked like I would be doing this job for ever).

     

    Not gonna be much but any extra would be lush. :catrecline:
