Hello everyone. Welcome to 2026. This week, I returned home from being on vacation for the holidays to resume my playthrough of the Mass Effect trilogy, starting my replay of ME3.

Doing full renegade Shepherd, the dreams about the child become very funny; why would Full Renegade shepherd care. Anyway, hope everyone has had a good start to their year

More Warframe, gotta get my aya reserves up for the new resurgence (and occasionally run one of the few modes that still has stuff I need). Got a credit doubler for my login today so I did an hour of profit-taker to get my credit reserves back up. Still can't seem to get my exodia contagion zaw to seem to work right, not sure why.

Did a few runs of Hades 2 after picking it up on sale. So far, I prefer Zagreus' gameplay from H1 to Melinoe's, but we'll see. The cast time and reduced number of dodges seem pretty brutal though. Made it to the second area boss and got it down to like 10% before dying.

Did one run of Slay the Spire after also getting it on sale, made it to the third boss. It would seem that my attempt to go all-in on damage and Rage cards did not work. Perhaps I need to focus more on blocking? Who knows. Unlocked the second character, at any rate.

Played some more Clair Obscur, gotta be getting close to the end of Act 2. I still do not get the hype. It's fine but so far, nothing groundbreaking. If anything, the in-combat gameplay is a step back from the mario RPGs where attack inputs were more complicated than "just press A lmao". Also the huge difference in difficulty between random chromatic minibosses being extremely tough and actually named bosses that are built up to be super impressive being super easy is narratively odd.

Act 2 spoilersCurrently going after the second Axon, and Lune is just one-shotting every enemy with her gun.

How is soulframe coming along? I want to like warframe but the run and gun doesn't appeal to me.

Haven't played it in over a year so couldn't really say, seems like it's very slowly coming along. Biggest news this year seems to be that they started selling the (extremely overpriced) founder's packs lol.
