Arbitrary Water's 3000th post spectacular!

Hey all, since I just reached a pointless even number for my post count, I thought it befitting that I blog about it. Because that's what I do. Except it's usually about old games that nobody has heard of. While I am not the most prolific poster on Giant Bomb, I would hope that at the very least people are capable of recognizing my avatar/username. I've been here since the start, after all. But...

Hey all, since I just reached a pointless even number for my post count, I thought it befitting that I blog about it. Because that's what I do. Except it's usually about old games that nobody has heard of. While I am not the most prolific poster on Giant Bomb, I would hope that at the very least people are capable of recognizing my avatar/username. I've been here since the start, after all. But enough semantic bullshit. Here is what has been happening with me, for those who care, in bullet points:
 

  • I started school. This means that I have significantly less time to play games than I did in the summer, where it was pretty much all old games all the time, the fruits of which can be seen in my previous two blog things.
  • Similarly, I really don't feel like playing any old RPGs at the moment. There's always an inconvenience here, or a janky spot there, or some sort of totally unfair overly difficult garbage that prevents me from really getting invested (See: Temple of Elemental Evil, Icewind Dale 2. Pretty much everything else as well. )
  • My plan of replaying all of the Resident Evil series is in motion, albeit somewhat stuttered motion. The thing is, I'm not especially sure what I would write in a blog, so I'm not quite sure if I will write anything or not. Suggestions?
  • It's nice to see that all the nonsense about subscription has cooled down. The bombcast has been saved, so hopefully there will be other things to discuss on the forums.
  • Man, Majesty is pretty awesome, albeit frustrating on the harder maps when your success basically boils down to dumb luck. Wish I had a good enough computer to play the second one. Maybe I'll blog about it.  Maybe not.
  • Or maybe I'll just start catching up to modern games that I haven't played yet, like Bayonetta. I still have yet to finish Devil May Cry 4, too. 
  • Or hell, maybe I'll try to beat Ninja Gaiden Black. (this is a joke.)
  • September 11. Something something.
 
Aaaannd, that's pretty much it. I'm not attaching it to the forums.
