It's already Monday and I still feel the hang over from drinking last Friday. If there is any proof that I am slowly aging, this is it. But that shit was pretty awesome. We hit three bars in one night including a strip club. I feel like all the non-drinking that I had in the past few months was all compressed into one night. I'm not doing that again for sometime because I am still aching. That was a night to remember though.

I don't really have anything to write today. There is nothing new. I stayed all weekend at home. Only reason I went out was to buy cigarettes. I binged watched Stranger Things. Why is it everytime I see Winona Ryder I just tear up. I never want to go through what she went through. But that was also awesome. Season 2 please :D

Played No Man's Sky. I need a new PC to really like the game. My graphics are a bit on the low side. The draw distance is pretty manageable but the texture is low. Technically, I'm running on Medium settings. But my PC was pretty high-end when I built it four years ago. Back then, there was no 60fps, 4k or anti-aliasing that burn down GPU's. Now, my PC can barely keep up. I need to build a next-gen PC. GTX 970 and I7 yeah duuuude....

Played Dishonored. I'd say it really reminds me of Bioshock. It's the atmosphere and gameplay. I feel like it's the love-child of Bioshock and Thief. The story is pretty linear so far. My expectations of games now are so high because of Borderlands. When some one says multiple branching storylines and side quests, you should be at least a Witcher or higher. But gameplay is really good. This is the first stealth game I've played that doesn't tie your hands that you end up breaking cover and fighting anyway. There really is a way to play without killing a single guard. Looking your way, Deus Ex.

Played Life is Strange. It's pretty slow. Maybe because I'm really early in to the game. I've just gotten used to the Telltale game pace. Which is very unfair. I know. Life is strange deserve a full other method of critique. The gameplay is very similar -- word/reply prompts. It's still both apples, but it's more like a Hemmingway apple and a Murakami apple. They operate on completely different merits.

I have so many games in Steam right now. I'm just beginning to download them. I have like 50 games in there and I've only finished... 10... - ish... Still downloading Wolfenstein and the rest of the seasons of Life is Strange. TBH, I'm just being pushed to play these games because I bought them a year ago. And I haven't played them, and the sequels are all coming out later this year.

There was a post on Imgur that's you should never pay full price for games especially when you have steam. No. For most of the games I've played, I would have paid more that what they've asked me. There are very good story makers out there. It's a shame people don't appreciate them as much.
