Never see anyone mention it so I’ll go with Hyperblade!

Futuristic combat skating game that was played in stadiums akin to the inside of a rugby/american football so you had high sides for doing tricks, goals at each end and hazards in the middle.

Hazards I hear you ask? Why yes! Spinning gates with blades on them to hurt your opponents and various other objects caused a small amount of bodily harm and bleeding. This led to a viable strategy of simply killing the opposing team.

Bonus points if you decapitated them too - literally. You could use opposing players heads to score more goals. Hilarious and probably not suitable for an early teens kid but I think I mostly turned out ok.

Huh, that was what 5 years ago now? I will remember telling randy he was wrong (in perhaps an alcohol fuelled rant 🤭) only to get swiftly blocked.

Brick voice ‘Ahhh good times!’

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six. Could be a fun mini series to adapt. The video game never grabbed me though.

Not great. Perpetually exhausted (~4 years, onset), GP just gaslights me into thinking I’m fine.

My friends have all but abandoned me since the pandemic.

I have no job and due to the aforementioned fatigue struggle to find a route back to employment.

On the plus side my cat loves me. Probably something to doo with tuna.

Overall I think I win.

I thump my water bottle down on the desk just hard enough to make my mouse trigger and wake up the PC. By the time I’m sat comfortably it’s awaiting a password :]

Managed to see Limp Bizkit twice during the late 00’s/early 10’s when they shoved their way onto a festival lineup. Second best band of the weekend! Go if you can!

Stardew Valley has been a life saver during bouts of insomnia.

Other than that BG3 and Golf with your Friends.

Hell yeah! Never thought I’d see this mentioned anywhere. I’d love a modern take on this.

Excited might be going a bit far but hopefully getting a referral to General Medicine and a little closer to understanding what’s wrong with me all the time.

Beyond that some D&D I plan to run when I’m better. Planning and plotting as we speak 😎

Oddly pretty good the last few days! Been suffering from fatigue from an unknown source and for the last 5 days I’ve slept well, felt ‘normal’ and been able to get some things done!

Where they the right things? Not really but it’s the thought that counts, right?
