You live up to your name, thank you King! I'm going to try to put that critical part of my brain away, just enjoy the ride and worry about having a deeper delve & thinking about the themes after my first run-through.

I've recently upgraded TV and sound systems and that li'l detail about the radio is genuinely so helpful.

Thanks for your replies! I've started playing SH2 remake just today and I'm thoroughly enjoying it thus far. Bloober Team really surprised me with this one.

The following are incoherent rambles pls don't bother to read/don't be mad

I'm finding this hard to articulate without rambling but despite enjoying it, I'm not feeling truly immersed in the moment-to-moment gameplay as much as I'd like to be. The reason being this is my first exposure to SH2 and I personally feel like I'm trying to retroactively "catch-up" on almost 20 years of missed themes and nostalgia, therefore I'm trying to absorb & consider every element of the story a li'l too much.

Phenomonal sound design btw.

I want to smash every window in the town

Definitely the Silent Hill series for me. We were more of a Resident Evil household growing-up

First memory of books that made me a voracious li'l reader were the Selby series by Duncan Ball.

Pre-consciousness I'm told it was The Little Mouse, The Red Ripe Story and the Big Hungry Bear 🐻

I'm chuffed it's a one-time purchase. Before release I only had the option to pre-download and I was a bit fearful of inevitably sinking cash on microtransactions (despite the dev being vocally against predatory practices)

Update: Transaction declined! They really are considerate of taking my money!

A recent Australian film, Violett. While I had some issues with the plot it was worthwhile for the confident cinematography & oddball/avant-garde direction. Worth a lookie-loo!

Thanks for your comment. I recently listened to a few of the Alien audiobooks and Reality Bleed sounds like a good chaser. Downloading the first season now.

Joined, thanks for putting me onto it!

Howdy!
