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've been playing Wesnoth again, too, lately. Am also thinking about doing some messing with it. I'd never really looked at the multiplayer stuff before, but I just recently checked out the "Mech Wars" add-on, and it's got some pretty funky things (dwarves in mechs, using fuel to move, ammo to shoot, real ranged weapons). I hadn't realized that that much customization was possible just in a unit. Many possibilities to think of.
