Puh, that Zombie game in »Alice in Borderland« season 3 is hard to watch. They could have easily won that game. What a braindead script.

It took some time. But just two years later than intended, here are the necessary files if you want to print one of the DrupalCamp Ruhr T-shirts from 2018, 2023, or 2025 for yourself.

Year after year, I wrestled with the question of whether I really needed the Creative Cloud. Sometimes I take a little longer than other people. But now I’m finally free! Goodbye !

Just when I was about to find Act II in way better than Act I (I really liked the Cogwork Dancers), here comes Mount Fay where you need the trashy, unreliable Clawline mechanic. And I am back to: Wow, who playtested this shit?!

Hmm. It took me around 43 hours to reach Act II in . HowLongToBeat puts the complete main game at 27 hours. Don’t those people explore the map? I spend, e.g., over 10 hours hunting for certain abilities (I can’t actually get in Act I). Tzz.

Wow. Another shop with even more expensive items. If I want them I can now farm, again, another 1.150 rosaries, another 30min or so gone, again. This. Is. So. Much. Fun!

TIL: William Moulton Marston, who created Wonder Woman and her Lasso of Truth (with artist Harry G. Peter) in 1941, had also contributed to the development of the polygraph (lie detector) in the years before.

I am amazed at how much I hate now. Eighteen hours in, and I only continue to play out of spite.

I’ve put the Nerd Quiz from DrupalCamp Ruhr 2025 online . 50 questions about movies, TV shows, music, video games, some Drupal and Web stuff, and some common trivia. With a few annotations.
(The quiz needed to work only on my laptop. So this is not responsive and not optimized, ~50MB. Just zoom in/out. Navigate with arrow keys.)

13h in and I am calling it: is one of the most unfun, most annoying games I have ever played! It is beautiful & has lots of good parts. But the annoying stuff overshadows everything else. I will play a bit longer, just to see if I stumble upon the area where they have hidden the fun.

It would have been really funny if Steam had prepared a Silksong reference for this error page. Soemthing like a shrugging Hornet.

Silksong will kick off the weekend for me at 4 p.m. And I am one of those who would have easily paid 30, maybe 40 Euro for the game.

Muahahaha. Ich habe im Januar 2022 meinen Schreibtisch zusammengebaut. Bis auf ein optionales Element. Das habe ich nun nachgeholt. 5 Minuten Arbeit, es anzubringen. Plus die zwei Stunden, die ich gebraucht habe, um die Schrauben wiederzufinden.

Meine unvollständige Asterix-Sammlung. Vor 35+ Jahren zugelegt. Vier Umzüge überlebt. Und jetzt gehen die Alben an die nächste Generation. Damit ich mehr Platz für skurrile Graphic Novels habe …

Finally »beat« the final boss of Overture. Kinda. After 268! attempts I still couldn’t solo the boss on »Legendary Stalker«. Intended difficulty my ass! As Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is ready to go I switched to »Awakened Puppet« to end this. Without a doubt the shittiest boss I’ve ever faced.
