Go to work, come home, go to sleep, try to write a novel, pick mushrooms in your dreams, peek in your neighbours mail-boxes and find poetry.
You can flush things (tomatoes, potatoes, eggs, etc) down the toilet and they actually flush. GOTY, would flush again in existential angst. :P :snap: :bzz:
Pathologic might beat it depending on how the back half of that game goes, and the only other game that I think even has a shot is death stranding
I really, really wish I had liked Outer Wilds more than I actually did. Those first three or four loops were magical, but then it almost immediately became tedious for me.
I think right now my Game of the Year so far might actually be Heaven's Vault.
There's definitely parts of outer wilds that get frustrating and tedious, and unfortunately they're mostly clustered toward the end, which is gonna leave a bad taste in your mouth, especially if you don't push through to the ending

$199 Analogue Pocket promises FPGA accuracy for portable retro gaming
FPGA with Game Boy/GBA support, 615 ppi screen, HDMI dock, coming 2020.
If you know the name Analogue, you know the company's reputation for somewhat pricey but authentic and beautiful HDMI-compatible FPGA (field-programmable gate array) recreations of classic gaming consoles. Today, the company is announcing that it will extend that line into the portable market next year with the Analogue Pocket, a $199 FPGA handheld that's fully compatible with literally thousands of original cartridges for the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance (and other portables like Lynx, Game Gear, and Neo Geo Pocket Color via planned cartridge adapters).
The Pocket's 3.5-inch, 1600×1440 resolution, 615 pi LTPS LCD display frankly seems like a bit of overkill, considering the Game Boy Advance topped out at 240×160 and about 100 ppi. But Analogue's Christopher Taber tells Ars the Analogue Pocket will sport the same Altera Cyclone V FPGA found in its previous Super Nt and Mega Sg, plus a second Cyclone 10 FPGA "just for developers to develop and port their own cores."
Started Outer Wilds this morning. This is 100% my kinda shit.
first loop: went to the moon, talked to the guy, roasted some marshmallows,
found an audio log, tried to run from the scary blue ball
Oh I see what we're doing
Loop 2
Immediately jumped into the geyser without my suit, died
Loop 3
Explored the home planet until death, found some interesting things.
Crashed into something so hard with the jetpack that I bounced off at ridiculous speed and clipped through the planet into some kind of cave with spooky sounds
Loop 4
Went to waterworld, found some kind of structure. Flew out to bramble planet and...got eaten, I guess? Just saw giant teeth enclosing around me, then nothing
Loop 5
Decided to hit up the debris orbiting...I think the water planet? (I later realized this was the thing I see get destroyed at the beginning of every loop)
Getting into orbit and matching that thing's speed was really cool, especially when I finally landed and could see everything spinning around me.
Some neat stuff to find on there too.
Had a cool moment early on in loop 1 where I was listening to the music from one of the planets and then they all aligned and I could hear like 3 at once....they synced up! That was cool as fuck.
Definitely getting some Majora's Mask vibes, which makes me really happy. Cant wait to get home so I can keep exploring.
Are there any opinions on Indivisible? There was a lot of hype as it developed and the Metacritic score is pretty high, but I didn't hear much buzz about it. I didn't even realize it came out, and I'm not seeing the usual let's players trying it out. Do we even have a forum for it?
You know what? Nanowrimo's cancelled on account of the world is stupid.

I game through my skin
but it's completely derivative of Hadaka no Neko Otoko Nyānyā, a light novel written by japense master Akira Yoshida

The other times I just long for a nice apple fritter and a cup of coffee.

Been super excited to check it out
that day is not today
Yeah, yesterday. I should have let everyone know! It's my job as the Outer Wilds Liker. Play that game!
You rang?

it's quite a bit of money for a gameboy-class portable, but it seems like the real fun will be in the hacking community around it
The inexorable arrow of time continues to bring nothing but hardship and cruelty.
it doesn't seem significantly smaller than your average smartphone
although I'm not sure how large this very serious looking man is
The system is actually two feet tall and weighs thirty pounds
Yeah that one late-game puzzle was a bit obscure but so much of the game was so much my jam that it doesn't really matter to me.

Finally nailed it with about 2 minutes to spare.
This game is amazing. I think I'm about done. Only a couple more mysteries to solve (that I know about).
What a trip.
it looks pretty cool
I'd like to give it a go when I have some time
