I didn’t shave, I’m in my pajamas, the lighting is dodgy, I’m unposed, I’m wearing my day job headset, and I can’t wear makeup.
What you see here is me at my most middling low-average, when I just can’t care cause most of the time no one will see me, except now you are seeing me.
The big takeaway is that this is what I look like when I’m not trying to be fancy, this is what I look like most of the time.
And I’m still beautiful, at least, to me.
And if ever you’re struggling with your own self-image and you want the outside to match the inside, you’re not alone in that. This is my raw, unprocessed outside.
Same!
Down there, in the lower right corner, occupying both cells immediately above the books, is Etherfields, my favorite board game of all time. It’s primarily a solo affair, and it plays like an avant-garde JRPG held together with dream logic. It doesn’t pull its punches, and has made me cry three separate times.
I love it so very much.
(Yes, there’s two copies of the core box, one for me, and one to lend out.)
I have Voidfall and Arkham Horror with two expansions and I am ashamed to admit that I haven’t played either yet and Voidfall is still shrinkwrapped.
I’ve played two games of Voidfall and I think it’s the heaviest game I own by far.
I was afraid of that. I guess I’ll need to find a game sherpa and/or group…which is a tall order. I have another game, Feudum, that I also have never set up simply because I feel like I need a committed group just to figure it out.
Never play Voidfall with other people, unless they already know how.
I sat down with a rulebook and a few hours and I just ground through it my first time, and my second time was smoother but there were a lot of lookups. Usually I end up going for games I can contain comfortably in my own head though.
Holy smokes
Pardon the messy closet.
This is the third floor lounge, there’s more on the first.
Have you by chance heard of guardians of atlantis? A buddy of mine waited 3 years after backing the kickstarter to get all the expansions. It’s essentially a tabletop MOBA and the reccomended starting characters are meh at best, but I could see it being an extremely good game after playing one game of it.
Also, diceforge. Another I’ve only gotten to play once, but it was amazing.
