Went back to Hades, which I apparently haven't played since 2020. I am not good at Hades.
Are you playing with God Mode on? Apparently, you are allowed to, it doesnt stop any trophies or access to anything. But it just feels wrong to switch it on, like I'm cheating or something.
Completed Hellblade.
That was quite a journey, disappointing to see the sequel is getting the thumbs down. I could only play it in 30 minutes sittings as the whole voices thing is so triggering I'm suprised the game is even legal.
Really added fuel to the fire of my interest in Norse mythology though, and have started reading the Poetic Edda of all the norse poems. Highlight so far finding out that Mimir was the name of the well and river Odin gave his eye to for knowledge. And of course the character Mimir in GOW is the font of all the ingame knowledge. Nice touch.
That and reading really good advice from Odin and thinking oh he's got a point here, and then he moves on to talking about women and oh dear.
Just saw the preview for next weeks Who episode.
Someone has been playing the Rusty Lake games.
Godzilla Minus One is an excellent film in its own right, even if you know nothing of the lore.
It's almost a remake of the original (apparently), and not part of the whole Kong & Godzilla monsterverse. It's not really an origin story either.
The human story about the horrors of war, specifically the meaning of being a soldier in Japan, are as poignant as any non-fantasy take on it. Fanstastic cast, cinematography and character style.
One of my recent faves.
Hades turned up today.
My quick fifteen minute go turned in to 2 hours.
This is a game and a half.
