    • Gaming

    Before and after I started a new job in March, my gaming time and interest plummeted to nothing, so I commenced a period of short gaming sessions of mainly free games and demos which continues to this very day. 319 words.
  • Free Stadia Game Phase. 2021-04-25 3:28 PM.
    • Gaming

    And now we move into videos of games I’ve played during a Free Two-Month Stadia Pro Trial phase (which I got from someone at my new job). There are a whole lot of free games to click on and play with a Stadia subscription, but the down side is that 99% of them are games you’ve never heard of before. 618 words.

  • Another Week of Stadia Games. 2021-05-02 9:36 AM.
    • Gaming

    Another week of playing strange games for free with a free trial of Stadia Pro. It’s really a fantastic system for trying out new games quickly. The technology is very cool. The sticking point is who pays for it, and how much this luxurious convenience is worth to a consumer. 684 words.

    • Gaming

    How to stream a local video file to Twitch with ffmpeg. 1,489 words.
  • Amazon Luna Also Streams Games. 2021-05-09 6:48 PM.
    • Gaming

    Since I was experimenting with Stadia, it seemed fitting to try out Amazon Luna for comparison. It was only a seven day free trial, though. Also, it was noticeably worse quality than Stadia. Also, you have to pay for an early access subscription. Also, it had far less good games available for free. In summary, not a lot of pros with Amazon Luna. 570 words.

    • Gaming
    • Soulslike

    The 42-part adventure in The Surge begins, a game that was fun except for the boss fights, and the last zone, which was an ordeal to finish. 476 words.

    • Soulslike

    The continuing adventures of Warren hacking and slashing his way through the Resolve Biolabs to reach his ultimate goal of … who knows? Warren doesn’t really have any motivation. Just an unquenchable thirst for hacking up robots and zombies. (Though he might have a secret backstory.) 663 words.
  • The Surge - Research and Development. 2021-06-28 9:52 AM.
    • Gaming
    • Soulslike

    The continuing adventures of Warren on his first day on the job at CREO. We’ve now reached the point in the story where I no longer remember what happened, didn’t write anything down, and don’t have enough time to re-watch the videos to figure it out. Soooooo. Yeah. Vague, one-sentence summaries! 562 words.

  • The Sound of Your Own Voice. 2021-07-06 11:08 AM.
    I saw a tweet the other day that reminded me of a topic of interest to me for decades, and I’m almost positive I’ve never written a blog post about this, so it’s finally something new to write about: The sound of your own recorded voice. 1,393 words.
  • The Surge - The End. 2021-07-08 9:12 AM.
    • Gaming
    • Soulslike

    It’s the last stretch for The Surge, as Warren finishes out his first day on the job. I hated the last zone in The Surge (the Nucleus) so much I almost uninstalled the game with only a couple hours left to play, but I powered through it because I’d gone too far to throw away so many videos. :) 1,134 words.
