  • Just picked up Terraria and I’m loving it. I played Starbound a while back and read that it was more or less a spiritual successor to Terraria. Terraria has all the things I wanted to see from Starbound. The crafting system is so expansive. The difficulty is real though, I travelled through 2 biomes and hit something with large beetles and cave worms that chomped me to death. Zombies, floating eyes, and slimes were no problem. Same for the mobs in the desert, easy…but once I hit that 3rd biome I was in trouble, even with my metal armor.




  • Started playing Fear and Hunger yesterday. I was mostly confused at first to be honest, but it’s a pretty decent survival horror game. It took a bit to realize that fighting enemies is probably the least preferred option. I haven’t made a lot of headway but I’m getting there. It’s not really as nightmarish as people keep making it out to be, from what I’ve seen so far, but it does make me pretty uneasy at times.



  • I’m 33 and learned about PC gaming mostly from my grandfather when I was about 10. He had games like Jazz Jackrabbit, Jill of the Jungle, and other early era Sierra games. He also introduced me to Nethack for which I am eternally grateful! He continued playing games and using 3d rendering software until he lost his eyesight in his late 60s, and even then used a screen reader to use a computer for some other things. I think any cutoff age is going to be largely dependent on what social circles you’re discussing and what area you’re in.
