items: adiwan: OH GOD. It's getting HOTTER. A whole week with temperatures from 30°C to 38°C in the shade. Just kill me sun. You are already the worst in Super Mario Bros 3.

title: adiwan: @scribus Yeah. It was just a small reality check I got when I was in the shop and me asking why I do "waste" my resources. I already did a similar thing with salad as it is hard to grow a lot and not taste bitter. Same thing with radishes as they are way too stubborn to grow a bulbous root. The effort in that case is wasted in comparison to the results. At least my gherkins grow properly and plentiful.

title: adiwan: Growing gherkins is probably not the most wise choice. I have about 2kg of them and bought ingredients to pickle them. Right then and there I saw the price for gherkins: 1€ for 1kg. I've spent more on the dirt, the pots and the seeds than it'll ever get a return of investment. Most of it are initial investment cost that amortize each year after upon reuse but still.

title: adiwan: Replayed Undertale... It's a product of its time. In comparison to Deltarune I think it's better handled when it comes to ACTing where you have to figure out the monster's personality for sparing it. In Deltarune it's more straight-forward. Otherwise everything feels more basic and empty in Undertale. It's the first game, I get it and I don't hold that against the game. It's quite the miracle it got so successful.

title: adiwan: @scribus Yeah. The actual "game" part is rather basic. It's similarly complex as the cabaret club mini game in Yakuza 0 and Yakuza 2. As a mini game it's fine for what it is, however for the main course it's severely lacking in depth in my opinion. Yeah. I got you. It could be fun as a resource management game to dispatch heroes according their strengths but this ain't it. For that I expect to assemble my own team and recruit more heroes and shuffle my team according to the current villains terrorizing the city. Also the hacking was rather meh. I get why it exists, as Robert sits at the PC with his Mecha Man experience. Hacking mini games were never done right as far as I know.

title: scribus: @adiwan I got it as a gift, so I have no cost/value analysis on it, but I really enjoyed Dispatch. Definitely, it's more "interactive fiction" than game, but I did enjoy the actual dispatch parts of it (and would frankly appreciate something like a standalone maybe roguelike kind of side project focusing just on that)

title: adiwan: The hidden boss in Deltarune Chapter 5 is kicking my ass. It is fiercely difficult. Not impossible. While frustrating it is an apt challenge. In contrast this fight is less punishing than any fight in Mina The Hollower. I can almost immediately begin the fight anew instead of backtracking and gathering resources with the risk of losing all of it, including the time.

title: adiwan: @scribus I liked the Simon The Sorcerer 2 interface the best for Point & Click adventures. It's slightly sleeker than Monkey Island 2 with icons instead of words. I don't like MI3 or Full Throttle's "coin" nor Sam & Max's where the functions have to be cycled through with the right click. Maniac Mansion 1 is definitely the worst with too many verbs and too much tiny text.

title: adiwan: I didn't hate season 2 of the live-action Avatar The Last Airbender series. I mean it's not as textured as the original animated series but I give them props to change up some stuff that broadens the characters. On the other hand there are some major blunders. So in the end it is perfectly balanced. The acting was greatly improved and Toph is great in this one too. Appa and Momo being side-lined doesn't bother me that much but it's quite odd nonetheless.

title: adiwan: Taking the train was a mistake. I had a company event next city (about 60km) and I thought it was not a bad idea to use the opportunity to declare my train fare to my expenses and let my company pay instead of me paying for gas. Also the event was near the train station, so it seemed to be a no-brainer. HOWEVER. Deutsche Bahn was in total chaos. Not only due to the heat wave, but also due to construction work on the way, but also a police incident on another train that delayed many other trains. Ah.. My train was cancelled and I had to use another "earlier" train but it got heavily delayed. I had a delay of 40 minutes. On my way back I had only 20 minutes. What a joke of a piece of infrastructure.
