Hello everybody, hope everyone has had a good weekend. This week I have started a replay of the Mass Effect trilogy. I am playing the opposite of the way I played the first time I played through it, so I am going full renegade female Shepherd.

They tried to make the dichotomy between renegade and paragon akin to Loose cannon/by the book cop, but Renegade Shepherd is honestly steers between total asshole and complete psychopath, to which I've developed headcannon that my Shepherd is self conscious about being a women in a position of leadership and believes the way to gain respect is to overcompensate and act like a total murderous lunatic to show she's "one of the boys"

Anyway, hope everyone has a good week

Picked up Hollow Knight for real after putting it off all this time, and now hearing about Silksong nonstop lately. Really fantastic game. Difficulty is for real, but it feels pretty fair. Just got the dream-nail and am hunting for essences, so I think I've still got a lot to go.

Biggest mistake was picking it up on switch, just because it turns out to be where my kid wants to play all their games too, so finding time to play has been tricky.

I think my professor who picked up Disco Elysium for his Switch at my recommendation had the same problem.
