Not like with your silly sexy turkey hat™ ^^

80 Days is a kind of chose your own adventure game, set in the world of Phileas Fogg (created by a French author). I have not had chance to play it yet, but it looks nice, a kind of interactive version of the book that puts you in charge, although it seems more managerial than just a retelling of the book.
I see... I watched a couple minutes of gameplay on youtube. Looks and sounds interesting. Owl will have to tell us if it is any good :-)

That sounds like a good idea. So how are you feeling today, if you don't mind me asking?

I'm doing okay. Still dealing with some unpleasantness from my medication, but I guess I'll get used to it. I've been having some trouble with anxiety and shaking too, but I seem to have got that mostly under control now. So... Not bad at the moment. Trying to decide which game to spend my afternoon with- I've got it narrowed down to about 19 :-)
*big return hug*

Sorry to hear you are still having a few problems, especially with the anxiety. I hope these will start to pass soon, or at least become less of a bother to you. If there is every anything I can do to help, you know where to find me. *big comforting hug*
I won't ask which 19, but good luck choosing. Maybe you should just let lady luck decide and pick one at random?
*big hug*

Thanks. It's nothing to bad, and nothing new. I shouldn't complain, but sometimes it is fun to do it anyway :-p *extra-big thank you hug*
I'm terrible at letting luck decide. I will never listen to her. I just keeping picking a new one at random until I agree with luck's decision :-p

I know the feeling, but still, feel free to complain all you like. *big hug*
How will you get the number down from 19 to just 1?

Please kindly give the lovely and generous Agent a big whack with the +1 hammer for his ninja gifting kindness. Thank you, Mr Agent! *big hug*

Who says it has to be just 1? I plan on playing at least 8 at the same time :-p ... I'm in the middle of Technobabylon with Owl, so I'll cut out any other adventure games. That already brings it down to about 13. I only need to cut 5 more :-)

Are you in the mood for a specific genre of game?

I've kinda burned myself out with sandbox games like Terraria and Starbound. And as I mentioned, am already in the middle of Technobabylon, so no more adventures for now. I'm kinda leaning toward a nice RPG at the moment, where I can develop a cool character.

Ah, I have not played many RPG games, so I can't really suggest any. Do you have a few RPG games that you are trying to decide between?

Well, I've got a few installed at the moment... I was considering re-playing The Witcher, and doing a different path this time. Also considering re-playing and finishing Risen. And finally, Shadowun: Dragonfall, which I started but didn't get far before losing my saves a few months ago. I'm kinda in the mood for something less complicated, which would be Shadowrun. Plus I've got Shadowrun: Hong Kong waiting for me in my backlog, but must finish Dragonfall first...
Looks like I may have just found my game of the day :-)

Yay for my internet dying for frigging hours. That was...not fun at all, and more than a little frustrating.
ddickinson: It would indeed be lovely if the other problems would go away, especially as some are being caused by people who could stop stop being jerks. Some of the problems can't be helped, but there are a few that just highlight how nasty some people can be.
That is true. They do seem to be getting a little better, but still none really for me. I think they also run longer now, but I am not sure. Selfish, thoughtless pricks...
I'm sorry you have to deal with that when all you should have to focus on is getting better.
They'll have to try fairly hard to beat the one they put out a couple weeks ago that had so many of the more expensive games at higher discounts.
Have a good night, keep on feeling better. =)
