New Futurama’s pretty funny. Billy West‘s voice ain’t what it used to be though. Fry sounds like he’s been in the future for 23 years or something.

@zeldatra I really just . . . kind of don't care? And I'm not sure why, or how I feel about how I feel.

I'm watching training videos at work. The narrator is so slow that turning the speed to 125% makes the voice and speech pattern sound normal.

Recently I shocked my colleagues when I told them how many consoles and video games I own. I mean I went to the flea market since I was very little, almost 30 years of bargain hunting. Getting little pocket money makes one think more about how to spend it wisely. Getting games months later for far less half the price is too much of a benefit to ignore, especially PC games lose extremely fast in value. My biggest get was The Elder Scrolls Oblivion that I got a week after release for about 10 bucks. As far as I can remember the seller absolutely hated the game and wanted to get rid of it.

Fiscally irresponsible thoughts: I should rent a virtual server and program myself a virtual table top service for me and my friends (similar to Roll20).

@scribus Could be worse. You could wear those novelty house slippers that make a "fun" sound when making a step.

My D&D group started a new campaign and the starting level is 2. I managed to be at 0HP three times within the first two sessions. The first time was a mimic (a barrel), then a quickling, and then some goblinoids with slings.

@scribus It's a female lizardfolk grassland druid with the name "Chamilia Moonsicle". This type of druid is not a tank. With the natural armor and a wooden shield she has 16 AC. Not bad but still too squishy for my taste.
The first down-to-zero-HP moment happened as she examined a weird barrel that happened to be a mimic-like animated creature. The next time it was a Quickling she managed to percieve (Quickling moved extremely fast) and followed a few steps out of the door, where she got stabbed 3 times with high damage rolls. Then she was hit to the head with a sling by a goblinoid savage (having little HP at the beginning of the battle didn't help either).
I didn't play unreasonable and not without caution but it was more dumb luck than anything else. -
@scribus To be totally frank: I have a long history of having many dead characters and stupid moments initiated by my dumb decisions. This time, I swear, wasn't the case.

It sounds obvious in retrospect that you should just play 0 first anyway but I wasn’t expecting them to insert much from 0 into the remakes given how closely the actual story cutscenes stick to the source material

@zeldatra I started with 0 as it is basically the beginning of Kiryus story, even though it was told much later after the Yakuza 1 release. 0 has some minor spoilers for 4 and quite some references to other installments. It didn't bother me. I rather liked it because I got an 'aha' moment and understood the reference retroactively, making the scene a little bit richer and due to the backstory aspect more understandable. The problem one can see more is making the decision when to play 0. When it comes to real downgrades Yakuza games 3 is the one that aged the worst, as it didn't get the Kiwami treatment and modernizing the controls and gameplay feel. Looking back on it it has some endearing retro aspect of the PS3 era when looking past those flaws. Generally starting with Kiwami 1 isn't bad either gameplay-wise, as the other games feel much more open and there are more areas besides Kamurocho.

I was advised by a friend to not play Yakuza 0 first if I’m planning to go through the rest of the series because the gameplay in Kiwami is a serious downgrade from that, and the plot points in 0 don’t matter until like 6, but Majima is repeatedly referring to stuff that happened in 0 every time I see him so I’m starting to think I actually should have played that first. Will probably play that before Kiwami 2.
