Looking Through Patient Eyes
Aug. 24th, 2023 07:21 pmThe Cyberpunk Red demo went really well. Three players, and they got into things quickly. Had a funny moment when a customer passed by and asked about the big battle map I had out on the table. He asked if the characters were low-level, and seemed just gobsmacked when I told him that the game didn't have levels.
The week's been uneventful, notable only for the heat. Heat indices have gone over 100F; at 7:35PM, we're sitting at 86F, indexed to 97. The two window units have struggled, and I haven't slept all that well. Stormy weather is forecast for tomorrow evening, and that'll help. For a little while.
As I'm writing this, an ex-POTUS is being processed at a jail in Fulton County, Georgia. Lots to, well, process here. In my interested layman's opinion, Georgia has a solid case against the miserable bastard - state-level charges, a stack of evidence, and what looks like some co-defendants flipping. Gods, I hope the fucker faces real consequences.
Got around to watching Guardians of the Galaxy 3. Pretty good, and a solid sendoff for much of the cast. Great soundtrack, unsurprisingly, and it's put In the Meantime on repeat in my head, and I am fine with that.
Even better - the first two episodes of Star Wars: Ahsoka. It, so far, feels very much like a continuation of Rebels - Hera and Chopper and Sabine are front-and-center, and Clancy Brown put in an appearance. I have the feeling that Sabine is going to just going to steal the show out from under everyone.
