dorchadas: (Limbo Matter of Time)
Has it really been two weeks since I posted? Wow.

Lately, [instagram.com profile] sashagee has been playing a ton of Infinity Nikki, the open-world magical dress-up game. I've been playing a lot of Project Zomboid, the zombie apocalypse survival game. That led me to updating that old "egirl and her podcaster boyfriend" meme:

Project Zomboid/Infinity Nikki Meme


She's playing a game where you have to help the faewish sprites grant wishes and where you have one outfit that lets you pet floofs after which they bounce around and wag their tails. I'm playing a game where the opening text is a black screen with the words THIS IS HOW YOU DIED. She's playing a game where you have to find the materials to craft the Wishful Aurosa Miracle Outfit to help save Miraland and I'm playing a game where I'm tearing apart furniture in houses to help barricade the windows on my farm-outside-of-town base. She's playing a game where where she traipses through magical forests and fantastic underground grottos, I'm playing a game where walking through the woods between my farmhouse and the nearby town is tense because there could be a zombie that wandered away from the others that'll try to get me.

She's also playing a game where all conflict is solved with "styling challenges" about competing fashions because an ancient curse means anyone who acts violently toward another human is stricken with crippling and possibly lethal pain and there are plots in the series about taking combat drugs to overcome this pain so you can successfully kill people, so I don't want to make the differences too obvious.

I was going to play Citizen Sleeper this month (still need to write my Timberborn review) and still might, but Project Zomboid is sure taking up a lot of my time.
