Posted on May 12, 2025 by baudattitude

Why do I do this to myself? OK, so.  Some background. I’ve been working on a Jellyfin server as something of a side project, with the idea that it will probably teach me something useful that I can apply at … Continue reading →

Posted on May 11, 2025 by baudattitude

Finished Assassin’s Creed: Mirage tonight, which is embarrassingly-enough the first “real game” I have completed all year.  I’ve spent entirely too many hours in soulless gacha waifu cash grabs, and I shall do penance appropriately. I mean, after I do … Continue reading →

Groundhog Day, Genshin Impact Style

Posted on April 5, 2025 by baudattitude

Continuing from the last post, here’s my impressions of Genshin’s Sumeru Archon quest from my second time playing through it. My first pass through Sumeru was enough to drive me away from the game for a while, mostly because I … Continue reading →

Genshin’s Inazuma, a second time.

Posted on March 11, 2025 by baudattitude

Continuing my thoughts on the Genshin storyline and areas, from my second playthrough. I’m not sure if it’s accurate to call Inazuma Genshin’s first big expansion, since it came after the patch that added Dragonspine, but Dragonspine is a completely … Continue reading →
