Slow....
Not much thought preoccupying my mind right now to fill any new entries at a consistent pace. Things here at home were rather..interesting. My mom's back after a weeklong stay at my brother's place to tend to his firstborn until they can handle things themselves and the health of the baby boy is satisfactory, which it was thankfully. The temporary absence of my mom kinda affects things in my freedom of movement ability here to leave the house. Its a security concern basically while another matter is the housekeeping thing. Such changes happen in a home.
Still websurfing and checking emails so far. Currently playing Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel (FO:BOS for short)on PS2. This game is shrouded in controversy by the franchise being distorted by its parent company, Interplay. The Fallout games, Fallout 1 and 2 were pretty solid RPG games in a no-longer realized post atomic holocaust setting. Fallout Tactics follows similiarly like 1 and 2 but more of a tactical kind of game. This latest game is entirely distanced a bit from the established universe that is loved by its supporting fans. FO:BOS majorly irked the loyal fans of the series for its being a water-downed rushed game that is also a vehicle for advertising a trendy drink rich in caffeine.
Despite the cries of outrage, I played with the game just for enjoying it as it is, a game. The mention of game companies laying off personnel and shutting down its associated studios is pretty much a prevalent corporate thing. Even in the case of Wizards of The Coast for shuffling and shutting down the arm connected to the Legend of The Five Rings RPG and gets assimilated into AD&D as a setting. Quite a sad turn of events, all the downsizing of companies with creative people sacrifices said creativity to turn out an impressive product. Anyways, I'll better attend to adventuring back into the wasteland and eliminate some mutant ghouls and such. *Wanders away from the doghouse. Sounds of inhuman screams, laser fire and pistol fire surround the air.*
