Using the rather fittingly named Dracula theme. Fantastic darkmode theme for qbittorrent

What if he got ill, or has an upcoming holiday and has to make up his quota? I am not sure I want to take that chance.

I would easily say no to his face… but he has a guna nd is willing to use it.

Still playing Street Fighter 6 pretty much everyday. Looking at who to try and get Master rank with next.
Learning Tekken 8, but complete scrub at 3D fighters so taking it slow and trying out a bunch of people.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink is my current non fighting game time sink as well. Absolutely loving the game, the quality of the combat and character variety is fantastic. Although definitely would have enjoyed more variety in the end game.
- Comment on Many players have become "patient gamers". What are games people might miss out on by waiting for sales? 10 months ago:
I mostly agree, but I feel like Street Fighter 6(Going to throw Tekken 7/8 out as an option as well) has a good enough ranking system that you will be able to get people around your skill level years down the line. I didnt jump on Street Fighter 5 till Arcade Edition released, and never had an issue with learning and getting matches in Ranked, and I feel like that will be the same for SF6.
You will have to catch up with knowledge of characters, but I feel lower ranks are much easier in that regard.
However, the Street Fighter 6 Battle Hub is merciless and full of Master ranked players, and that is where turning up late is going to be painful and soul crushing(and I will be one of those people contributing to that).

I will give it a try, pretty sure it is in the steam library, but probably be a couple months til I get round to it now (Granblue is being an absolute blast).
- Comment on How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone? 11 months ago:
I used to use it a lot. I still have some nice headphones that I like using, but they have become 2nd choice. I have bone conducting headphones that I use daily.
I prefer them, because I can still communicate, ride the bike, and never have to pause the music. But if I have to do anything loud, the wired buds are coming out to plug the ear holes.

Still playing Street Fighter 6 pretty much every day. Still absolutely loving it.
Spider-Man Remastered, going through on Ng+ and ultimate difficulty to 100%, having just 100% Miles Morales. Those games have really clicked with me and makes me want to play the Arkham games again.
The Finals, have really enjoyed the betas and the full release being shadow dropped was a nice surprise. Definitely going to have more time when Spider-Man is done.
Next on the list to play is Sea of Stars, and Granblue Vs Rising.

Favourites, not really ordered
- Street Fighter 6 - Really really good fighting game, definitely a recommend if you want to play one.
- Baldurs Gate 3 - It is BG3, what more needs to be said?
- Octopath Traveler 2 - It is more of the first, but more refined and better at tying the characters together.
- Dead Space Remake - If you like the original, you should really play this, it is incredible.
- Remnant 2 - Great game, a good refinement of the first remnant, and fantastic in co-op.
- Last Epoch - I really like the leveling systems(Character and also Skills). Not perfect, but fun and chaotic.
- Crab Champions - Crab goes BRRR. Not many games I go out of my way to 100% but this games feels incredible to play.
- Spiderman & Miles Morales - Finally pick up on the cheap, if you enjoy the Batman Arkham formula, these two are fantastic. Miles Morales definitely feels like a large DLC though.
- Driftwood - Longboarding Sloth, super chilled out and relaxing. Just enjoy carving down the hills on sticks of butter.
- Lumines - The best game on the PSP, and still love it(picked up for cheap with Tetris, but prefer Lumines)
The not so good.
- Ghost Runner 2 - I want to like this more, I loved the first game, but the wide open levels and bike traversal just don’t feel good or fun.
- Diablo 4 - Play Last Epoch instead, D4 feels boring and bland and uninspired after finishing the story.
- Blasphemous - Didnt click with me, the combat felt good and the movement was good, but never stuck with it, will probably try again at some point.
- Hyper Light Drifter - I have tried a few times, and I keep bouncing off it.
- Ori and the Blind Forest - I also want to like this game, but bounced off it again.
While Street Fighter 6 is my Favourite game of the the year, Baldurs Gate 3 is definitely the GOTY. I would strongly recommend any game from the favourites list. I haven’t played any really bad games this year, Diablo 4 is probably the worst I have played, do not recommend it. Unlike the other games which I would be tempted to suggest under certain circumstances.

I would be surprised if this doesnt take it overal this year.
It is my 2nd favourite game of the year, but I am very biased towards fighting games and Street Fighter 6 is so damn good.
There have been just way to many great games this year, and honestly dont have enough time(or money) to get through them all.
- Comment on Tesla Model X Owner Has Had Enough Of Minimalism, Adds Physical Buttons 1 year ago:
I dont think removing the screen complete is the right way around this. Having something that can display maps and more information is good. But it should have never become the only thing.
You need buttons and easy access to functions that are always available in easy to remember places. So that you aren’t spending attention away from the road when you want to change the fan control.
Fuck this bullshit touchscreen only nonsense, actual physical buttons are superior in a car.

It is the single biggest reason why I havent thought about getting an iphone. I have an ipad and it is alright, but I have gone back to using the significantly worse specced Fire tablet, so I don’t have to use Safari.

In the UK it was brought in during the first world war as a method partly to save coal. Never had anything to do with farmers, but seems to have become a convenient explanation for it these days.

Still on the Street Fighter 6 grind, just picked up another character, Luke. What a dumb stong tool set, placed into Diamond for ranked which is my highest by far(usually into mid plat).
And then finishing up Cyberpunk, DLC was awesome, and patch 2.0 has refreshed the game. Cleaning up the map and doing every quest I can, hopefully get this wrapped up this week as well and can move onto another game.
