Gaming

Leveled a few more characters in World of Warcraft. Since I've been basically just playing Horde for over 15 years, with only a few exceptions here and there, I'm now basically filling out my character roster with their Alliance counterparts. Since more and more stuff is cross-faction nowadays, this doesn't really matter too much anymore, but it still gives me an excuse to level new characters with the objectively best race, dwarves.

I bought a few smaller games in the Steam sale, first RollScape. It's a puzzle game where you roll a die to put down tiles, which give you points, and you try to get as much as possible. Modifiers increase this exponentially, so you just get more and more. It was alright for a couple of hours, but also a bit too boring and frustrating at times.

Then God of Weapons, which is basically Brotato, except you get to play Inventory-Tetris between rounds to manage your items. The inventory system is a neat gimmick, but otherwise the game doesn't really a lot of new things. Runs can also be a bit too long for my tastes, with half of the time spent swapping items in and out, trying to fit some weird shaped item into your inventory.

I've only just started Slime 3K: Rise against Despot, another Vampire Survivors-like, but it's not making a good impression so far. The game looks great, I love the pixelart design of the slime, but right now, the gameplay isn't really doing it for me. It's mainly the weapons, they just feel super weak and not really impactful in any way. In this game, leveling up spawns a vending machine, which you can collect and then get to buy items. These items come from a deck, that you can modify between runs, so can remove stuff you don't like or if you want to focus on specific types items, i.e. just guns or summoning. I'll give it a bit more time, maybe some later unlocks improve things.

Lastly is Powerwash Simulator. Seems like just a fun, brain-off type game, where I can blast dirt off of stuff, while watching streams on the side. Except that Lichen can bite me. Bullshit, basically invisible, but still count as dirty. Screw you. (Edit: Didn't know about that button to highlight dirt, which makes it much more manageable).
