Finished out my Monthly Theme game already. Pretty much another Faerie Solitaire style RPG/Solitaire hybrid game. For some reason I can play the holy hell out of card games while on mental autopilot and this was no exception. No bugs that I found, straightforward casual play, not ridiculously challenging, easy to get into. If it was good enough for Felicia Day, it’s good enough for me.

Chugging along very slowly on my February book-game selection, but hopefully that’ll pick up momentum now that my Monthly’s out of the way.

My book-game potential match up list has grown by leaps and bounds too, and has become a mini research hobby in itself.


Hope to get a bit of time on Destiny 2 this weekend to mess around with the Valentine’s event. Because nothing says love quite like a hand cannon blast to the face.

Off-topic, I got my Valentine’s date sorted out. Going to do a Bob Ross + wine night at home which will be an experience for complete non-artists haha.

Hope everyone has a great week, a pleasant Valentine’s, and lots of fun in your gaming adventures.

As a huge Bob Ross fan, I hope you post a picture of your painting after you finish.

Trav

Definitely will. I have no artistic bone in my body so if I can manage getting through this, anyone can lol

What is Bob Ross like? Since I live in a stupid country I can’t watch it :(
But artsy and wine sounds fun! Have fun! \o/
And I’d also like to see a pic <3

Happy gaming and valentines day ;)

Trav

Oh man, Bob Ross was too pure for this world. Former military man turned artist, he brought painting to the masses via public television shows a few decades back. His art used very basic supplies and his shows were filled with motivational dialogue. He’s something of a legend now. :)

Well I can at least see some pics and they look awesome. But I guess it’s awesome to… inspire ppl to do painting! So that is really cool! Have loads of fun walking on his path ;)

Wait… why you can’t watch it? Bob Ross YT channel is region blocked in Germany? :O

ninglor03

Clicking on the Link above… seems to indicate just that :(

Pietruszek

The above link is just a link to some article about him. How about this link? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLWEXRAnQd0

ninglor03

Nope sniff

Pietruszek

;(

No idea why it’s like that. It works for me in Poland…

ninglor03

BECAUSE IT’S GERMANY! rolls around crying

Found a possible answer in this article (I’ve read it using Google Chrome translation): https://www.kuenstlerbedarf-blog.de/alle-bob-ross-videos-in-deutschland-gesperrt

Looks like some company has exclusive rights to distributing the series in Germany on DVD-only or something like that :O

ninglor03

Yeah, that seems to be something that would happen here o.Ô
I will not buy them, just so I know what this is all about though. So duh, bad marketing!
Thanks for looking that much into it!
