I get why it happens. It's better than just selling straight up player power I guess, but it really does make the in game things feel less special. It's totally sapped my interest in Retail WoW. "Oh woah a sweet looking mount what is it from--oh the shop" :|

Games moving cosmetic rewards to microtransaction shops as "It's ok at least it's not player power" is one of the biggest bummers. Meaningful in game rewards that are just cosmetic for the cool factor are awesome but paid ones dilute the cool ones too. This is a post about Diablo 4 (and WoW)...

Just wrapped Dietrich yesterday and started Leda. Don't know if I've got it in me to do all 4. Bigggggggggg game. Also lost 2 people on the last turn of the last battle of chapter 11 on Dietrich and then the battle ended on a counter attack before I could rewind... which... sucked 😿

I love google disabling assistant and transitioning me to gemini. Made the decision to jump back to iOS even easier.

Should I do Leda next? Dietrich's story has been fun almost purely because of Fabio. (esmerelda is so extra...)

I got a bit weirded out by Exposition Emblem at first, but by the 2nd or 3rd big chunk of free time it kind of mercifully let up a bit on it. Dietrich path tho.

I don't know how a board game can do it, it's unfair ground when magic has 3 decades of history to customize with! Stuff like Dice Throne has echoes of it, but never strikes the same.

Tim Day @thetday.bsky.social · 09/09/2026
I am forever looking for a board game that has the personalization appeal that Commander does. Deck & engine builders are quite fun but there's definitely something on the customization front that Commander has that, in combination with the engine building, makes Commander uniquely appealing.

I got an Ioniq 5 a few months ago; I don't do a heavy commute so can't speak to that part of it but its been an excellent car! Range has been great and could do at least 2 days of that before needing a charge.

... I was having a conversation about Marauder Shields with someone last night. Is there something in the air? Final "boss" fight of the last mission of 40k Darktide Campaign had Marauder Shields vibes. 😀

Yeah! I've been working at Magic Fuel Games (now part of Playstack) for 8 years now, the PhD wound up not being my cup of tea. Star Trek city builders are way more fun!

MH Wilds 2/2 Wilds removed so many little things that make Monster Hunter feel like the methodical and thoughtful combat action game it can be. Instead, simplifications detracted from the incredible worlds they built.

Tim Day @thetday.bsky.social · 01/01/2026
Monster Hunter: Wilds 1/2 The most I have to say about any 1 game of 2025. And it hurts. MH Wilds was supremely disappointing to me. The focus on story and streamlining were major steps backward. Despite how MUCH story there was... no conflict or character kept you invested in the story.

Ball x Pit This game didn't grab me like it seemed to hit folks more broadly. It felt on rails and grindy until you could coast through levels. It didn't feel like my ability as a player was super important. That being said, it has a lot of appealing elements and I think it's worth a try.

Abiotic Factor Obligatory Playstack shout out. This game is super fun and I really just need to devote more time to it.
