DECEMBER REPORT
I beat

it took me WAAAAAY longer than it should have. I really liked it tho. Liable to put a few hundred more hours on it.
I wish theyd made the controls more keyboard-only friendly. its soooo close to being totally navigable that i honestly resent it in a way i wouldnt if it weren’t.

my progress is progress, but my… shall we say, deliberate play style didnt keep up with an unreasonably lucky month

in November i finished

it was alright i guess. ran like crap on my PC (Potato Computer). felt like a fancy VN more than anything.

pretty okay actually. i still dont think its get-the-tattoo good or anything, but it really perked up as the game progressed.

for what it is, its very good. im not a huge fan of what it is, but its fun for when im in the mood for it

and i started to learn how to use BLAEO generator lol

progress

I need to figure out the fancy formatting yall use, but in October I finished:

• Vampire: the Masquerade - Coeteries of New York
  – I liked it, i wish more of the choices mattered, but it was a fun little visual novel
• The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante
  – I liked it even more. Choices mattered and it felt way more like the Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Books I enjoy so well.
• Styx: Master of Shadows
  – This was genuinely great. I suuuuucked at it at first, which made me feel olde, but by the end I was vibing. I def’ly plan to go back and 100% it.

I also got started on Beholder, BioShock Remastered, Distant Worlds: Universe (completed to PA criteria), and Quantum Break.

The only Oct Challenge Me! i finished was Styx: Master of Shadows (on a related note, if anyone has figured out how to get their controller to work on Psychonauts in a Linux environment Id love to hear the details).

All in all, I think it was a pretty solid first month on BLAEO. It was nice to play (and finish some) games that would prolly still be collecting dust. Unfortunately, October was a pretty lucky month for me on SG, so my backlog actually increased lol
