Who else lost their Steam Deck to their kids?
They've already taken the SX, the PS5 and the Switch. I'm not even going to let them have a sniff of the Steamdeck.
Once my eldest gets her hands on it I'll never see it again.

Physical Editions of Starfield will not contain a game disc
I guess the reason it'll have a physical release is that they want to get it into stores. As much as things are going digital, having product on stores and in front of people who otherwise might not know about it is still a pretty solid way of moving units.

Desperately hoping my 16 month old has a nap so I can start my next book.

Let's get some conversation going and lift this community. So, what's your greatest sporting achievement?
Once scored an overhead kick during our in-school football tournament. Even got a pat on the back from one of the bigger kids.
I peaked at 9 years old.

What are you reading this week? [6/18/23]
I'm still working my way through The Social Distance Between Us by Darren McGarvey. I mainly read at work, so maybe only 30 minutes a day, but I'm slowly getting through it.
I also just finished reading through George RR Martin's A World of Ice and Fire.

Best and worst murder mysteries / thrillers
I'm not sure they really fit into the category of murder mystery that you're looking for, but I recently read both The Seven Deaths if Evelyn Harcastle and The Devil and the Dark Water and absolutely loved both of them.

Favourite game music?
The Outer Wilds soundtrack is something I go back to regularly. Even considered buying the Vinyl...and I have no way of playing it.

I think it's the heat, my kids have been absolutely awful at bedtime this last week.
The baby usually goes bed at 7, nah. He's a 8:30 sorta guy now. The five year old? She seems to have a nightmare every night.

What do people use to track their reading?
Goodreads, although if I can figure out the process of exporting my data over to Bookwrym then I'll likely do that.

Redfall developer Arkane currently safe, Microsoft says
Wasn't it recently reported that Microsoft and Bethesda had no real love or interest in the game, and they sort of just left them to it?

If you could play only 1 Game for the rest of your life, which one would it be?
Before I had kids: PUBG. I went real hard on that game for 18 months. I played 10+ hrs a week and never lost interest.
After kids (PUBG is stressful, I don't need more of that) it'd be Rocket League. I've been playing it consistently since Day 1 and whilst I don't see myself improving much anymore, I still get a kick (ahem) out of scoring a nice goal, or a laugh at totally missing an empty net.

Any gamers on here? What are you playing?

Probably a silly question but are you using the thing on the floor as you run into the fight arena?

Finally getting around to Bloodborne on my partner's PS5. Had zero interest in these games before I gave Elden Ring a go last year, and I've been hooked since.
Finished Elden Ring last year, and Sekiro over the festive season.

What are some good switch games for kids to keep their brains active?
My (then) four year old had a lot of fun with Donut County. For the most part she figured it out entirely on her own and even managed to beat it. And given the nature of the puzzles involved, I like to think she learned a thing or two at the same time.

Sunday chat
Fathers day. Mum is at work however, so my day is like any normal Sunday... Looking after a sassy five year old and a miserable one year old.
Le sigh.

I've been searching for a 'letterboxd for games' for years, and iirc that's partly what Ggapp bases it's site on. I'll absolutely give Backloggd a look though, thanks.

The best Mastodon app for Android?
Trunks. Hits a nice middle ground between something like Fedilabs and Toots.
