My tv doesn't even do HDR unfortunately despite having the UHD color options in the TV menu.  Even without it I noticed colors pop more especially in Watch Dogs 2, Skyrim Remastered, and TLOU Remastered

I gave my sister a homemade candle and my brother Kubo movie+banner saga 3 as a joke. I gave hive banner saga 2 last year but delays and life meant I've yet to buy it for him.
I saw you playing Life is Strange, how are you enjoying it?

Except for the ending I loved it.

Kinda changed my outlook on life and people.

Yeah.  It spoke to me as I started supply teaching when it started coming out.

Finished the last guardian. Really good but really short. Ending came too fast. Felt like 9 hours maybe?


Also Planet Coaster is an incredible game.

I need to start playing more TLG.  I've been playing Dishonored 2 and WD 2.   I want Planet Coaster so bad.  It's looks amazing.

Planet Coaster is so "happy." Everything just feels inspired and part of a single wondrous vision. I spend so much time just staring at my creations haha.

The "next gen" changes to the game are amazing. Roller coasters can now mimic real world rides 1 to 1 and that allows so many more concepts to be explored. A slow gentle ride can still have fun unique bumps instead of using cookie cutter pieces. A super fast coaster can have gentle curves and smooth bunny hops 50 meters tall.

Guest pathing is such a fun change since it actually makes you think about how paths are placed. I had a bottleneck at the opening of my park with 1,000 people and it stopped mechanics from getting through.



Trico is the best part of TLG. I fell in love with that stupid animal. How is watch dogs 2? Me and my brother passed on it for the time being.

That sounds awesome.  I'm enjoying WD2 a lot more than the first.  Much more upbeat and san francisco is amazing.  Car handling is much better and the hacking is much more refined with a lot more options for hacking.  Love the RC car and am trying to get enough money to 3d print the drone.   Marcus and the others in dedsec are great, imo.
