Children of UG-Qualtoth

This mod…

I grew up on horror. I was reading Stephen King at 11. I can watch gore horror like SAW and Hostel without even being remotely phased. Pennywise is kinda cute. I have zombie “nightmares” where literally everyone else on the planet is dead, aside from myself and handful of people and I love them. I have fallen asleep during hour 3 of the 6 hour Shining miniseries, woken up when Jack is stalking the house, covered in blood and insane, trying to kill Danny, and fallen asleep again in the middle of it. Point is, I don’t scare easily. I have considered that there might be something pathologically wrong with me.

NPC, why are you still chattering?

Fallout, You Know Me So Well

Now, if you know me in person, you know that I have the cooking skills of a blind, deaf, child with no tongue. I neither read recipes nor listen to instructions from real people, so I can feed myself extremely basic things: spaghetti, jello, cheese on toast, cereal. I’m fine with this, because I don’t care how they taste. Cooking for other people? No. I don’t want to. That’s a lot of effort, and I would probably end up making someone sick.

I just got a rolling pin as a drop. A rolling pin. So I can beat people to death with a rolling pin? Seems unlikely that I’d kill anyone with a kitchen implement, but it’s in keeping with my own personal life lore, so I’ll bite.

Oh, It’s a legendary drop? That seems like a bit of a stupid waste of a legendary drop. Does it roll fancy patterns on their faces? Does it poison them, so I don’t have to wait for my cooking to do it? Does it set things on fire, like I’ve done to my kitchen before? Does it do double damage, like my cooking that’s boring AND might make you sick? Does it just sit in my cupboard and do nothing?

Wait, what? It actually poisons people? I was kidding. Oh, Bethesda, you troll, I love you. I will probably never use this thing, but I’m definitely going to put it on display. I actually laughed out loud when I saw this thing. Thanks, Bethesda <3


Photos From the Wasteland 1: Fallout 4 Reviewish Ongoing Series

So, as you know, I got a new laptop, and a rather nice boy I know got me a present before it even shipped. Fallout 4.

The fallout games have always been dear to me, because they combine elements of things I love, with things that I like but am terrible at, so they help me learn. I’m terrible at FPS. Truly terrible. When something jumps me, I freak out, flail, and die. It’s embarrassing. Fallout has an FPS element, but it’s not all shooting, and if there’s a foe I just cant deal with, there’s VATS to help out. I’ve become something of a skilled sharpshooter though, which is nice.

 


Reviewish: BUNNY PROGRAMMING

Oh m’ goodness. Google. Thank you. 3am cuteness to amuse this insomniac. Bunny cuteness

It’s not really a game, but an Object Oriented Programming tutorial disguised as a very cute, if somewhat off-seasonally-Easterish, bunny game. Basically it uses four extremely basic  commands – forward, left turn, right turn, simple/nested loops – in a visual block-placing format to steer a super cute boxy Bunny around a track to nom carrots. If you’re a programmer, it will take you all of five minutes to complete the whole thing, but but if you’re little, it could probably amuse you for a decent amount of time.


DotA 7.00 Update: Reviewish

Dota 7.00 Update

I’m not entirely sure how I feel about this update.

I’m not going to do a rundown of all the new features and things, because everyone will do that, and you can read it all here.


Sigils of Elohim: Reviewish

I just gave Sigils of Elohim a go. Sorry, I don’t have a graphic for it it, but it doesn’t have a website, and I don’t like cheesy screenshots.

I finished the game, while watching TV, in 76 minutes. I liked the overall look and feel of it. I’m a sucker for grungy stuff. The bright colours on the brushed metal are appealing. The brushed metal was pretty. The puzzles were entertaining, and the controls were simple. If you play The Taltos Principle, every few games or so, you get some codes for free stuff.

This game was cute,


The Witcher: Reviewish

I’ve started playing the enhanced edition of The Witcher.  Honestly, I’m not sure it’s going to be my thing.

There are WAY too many cut-scenes; the start of the game was like half an hour!  They are too frequent and too long.  If I want to watch a movie, I’d watch a movie.  I’m playing a game, because I want to actually play.


Torchlight II: Reviewish

Torchlight Header

Torchlight II game is really REALLY fun. I initially thought that it was going to be like Diablo, which, though fun, was a little disappointing. I felt Diablo was short. And too easy. I was a noob, and I creamed it on the hardest setting.

I’ve been traipsing around Torchlight II for two weeks now, and I’m nowhere near finished, as far as I can tell. Also, I HAVE A BADGER FOR A PET. A BADGER. I, of course, have named it Honey.
