did you change the difficulty settings? it should make it easier.

at the 75% mark in Hinterberg. My score is looking more like an 8.5 than an 8. i'm really enjoying this mix of zelda and persona. edit: the dungeon i'm on has some brilliant level design

ha true. i didn't think of that lol

these are still wired, right? if it was something like the quest 3 (wireless), i'd maybe consider it, mainly for when i have company over.

I finished the first 5 eps of Cobra Kai. It was cheesy, in a fun way, in parts. But overly cringey or sappy in others. I’ll see it through. But this show should have ended 1 or 2 seasons ago.

you'll love it. it's a game that gets better and better.

i would probably ditch leg press. it's a bit quad heavy. back in the day, i would alternate between lunges and squats (separate days).

the social links in hinterberg are getting awesome. mainly, in how they unlock essential skills and even access to certain dungeons. some weapons/armor are tied to stats. so, you'll find yourself hanging out with NPCs, you would've overlooked, and realizing they are great and valuable. i don't think there's a romantic aspect, and that's fine. i just like how the social links add to gameplay experience. edit: i just encountered a cool twist with the story.

eh, i can't say i'm a fan. then again, i'm not a fan of themed systems/controllers.

that's nicely balanced. it's similar to a routine i did, back in the mid 2010's. now, i need a good 2-3 days for my nervous system to rest.

oh yeah, for those looking to do the big 5 lifts, with barbells, i would never recommend it.

I trained at a Planet Fitness today (guest pass). I know they get trashed by “the bros”….but it was actually a good experience. Every machine worked and looked new. There were plenty of benches and smith machines available. The dumbbells only hit 70, which is probably the only drawback, but it’s not terrible. I only did the machines to see if I could get a quality workout without dumbbells or barbells. I did lat pull downs, shoulder press, rows, bench press, reverse flies, tricep extensions, hammer curls. They all allowed for unilateral moves with a neutral grip (easier on shoulders and elbow

The Deep is clearly Vance’s favorite character in The Boys.

Definitely counts. It’s like a full campaign.

No doubt. Plus, I see VR as a novelty.

That’s a crazy good price. It’s still not for me, though.

Some of the puzzles in Hinterberg remind me of the classic Zelda games I loved the dungeon I just knocked out. I’m about 50% done. Indie games are saving gaming

I started watching Presumed Innocent on Apple TV. Pretty good, so far.

Slitterhead looks wild af. I hope the devs can smooth out the animations during combat.

Yeah, Braid and Portal got me hooked on puzzle games. I would have to satiate my love for puzzles with adventure games, before those titles showed up.

I haven’t really been into platformers lately, but I loved the astrobot ps5 tech demo game. I will check this out. It looks fun.

Yes! I saw this and thought it looked great! I didn’t know it was already out
