July-August

Not much playing time this month. I started Prey and Dead Cells, played Orwell and recently had a crack at Wolfenstein The Old Blood.
The Old Blood was a surprisingly short game. I should probably go back and get some of the achievements, but I’ll leave it at beaten for now. Fun game, but I wasn’t keen on the zombie part of the story. It’s rare for me to beat a game as I’ve not been playing much, so feels good to be able to post something here!

I knew Orwell was short. The style of the game was pretty novel and it was good to play something a little different. There are different ending, which I should probably try for as they’d be fairly easy achievements to help improve my stats! but we’ll see. I wouldn’t come back for a sequel, but glad I played it.

Been busy at work as usual, I visited family and friends in the UK for the last two weeks, and while I was back I got my eyes tested to find that one eye has significantly worse sight than the other. I didn’t really notice before as my other eye compensates for it, but now I know it’s very annoying! Anyway, I have new glasses, which helps, and I guess I should wear them more. My eyes are apparently healthy, but still a little worrying. Just getting old I guess :-(

Maybe I’ll get LASIK if they continue to deteriorate. How’s everyone else’s eyesight? any experience of LASIK or one dodgy eye? :-)

Congratulations - you’ve actually managed to finish Skyrim, a feat I failed to perform for a good couple of years now. Every time I try looks the same - I install the game, search for mods and install a couple, then get bored or distracted after a couple of hours and leave the game for another couple of months or years. But next time I’ll finish it for sure! …yeah.

I’m very slow in responding to this! I’m sure if you sit down in the right mood and put in some hours you’ll get into it and finish it. Next time, go for it!
