Precious

The new thing I say when a video game ceases to be fun, by making me do something I already did over and over, is: This is not treating my time and attention as precious.

Why, yes, I did just finally get to the Meat Circus stage in Psychonauts...!

While I'm here: any game recs I need to know about? Know ye that I really really want to play Dwarf Fortress, but ffs, I cannot get past the interface. I just can't do it. It's like trying to read a really smashing novel where all the text on every page is encoded as a stereogram. And covered in bees. I don't know.

What are you playing?

I have peeked at Wesnoth a coupla times, when I evidently wasn't in the mood. It looks like a fan-port of the old Sega Genesis game Warsong, which I can't complain about. (In fact, your noting it in Facebook status helped get me into the mood for some gaming!) Maybe I will go look again.

I thought LJ2 : Red Alert was gonna totally kick ass from all the hype, but I never really heard much more about it after it launched...
