Breaking my nine-month social media hiatus to urge everyone with access to a phone to play Thronebreaker ASAP. I adore this game and, if you have any interest in Witcher whatsoever, you will too. One of my absolute favourite video game stories

I barely use social media anymore, but yesterday marked two years at CDPR for me. Still can't cast Igni, but I did win a pub quiz with a team called "Geralt of Trivia" last night, which seems like the next best thing

I can't believe God packs are real. Opened this half-asleep and nearly threw my phone at the wall. Had to double-check later because I thought it happened in a dream. Holy shit

This has just become a serious contender for the funniest video ever posted on the internet

Fills me with joy to see so many people talking about The Witcher, whether that be motivated by the new trailer, revisiting TW3, or (especially!) a desire to jump into this incredible world for the first time. My absolute favourite fantasy setting - hope people love it as much as I do

Theoden's 'Forth Eorlingas' speech has always been one of my favourite LOTR moments, although it has been almost totally ruined for me ever since I heard it as "Forth Aer Lingus." Why does my brain not want me to have nice things

"And that's why X will always be better than Bluesky. If I pay money, users will be forced to read my far-right opinions instead of posts from people they actually like and value. Don't you care about free speech?"

I have yet to spend a single cent in this game, so I am not entirely sure how this is even possible

It seems like forever ago because I was just 23 when I wrote it, but I am still really proud of this story about how Terry Pratchett got involved in the Oblivion modding scene - and why said scene became so important to him in his later years www.eurogamer.net/the-story-be...

Was playing CK3 and lost a bunch of fame over a bad war, which meant my daughter was no longer eligible to marry the king of Poland - or so I thought. Said king relinquished his claim and became unlanded to marry her, which is a very cute love story but not at all what I needed to Reclaim Britannia
