A screenshot from Forza Motorsport 7 showing a bright green Subaru Impreza WRX passing another car on the inside around a corner.

A screenshot from Forza Motorsport 7 at the end of a race showing that I'm ranked 11th on the leaderboards for this particular combination of track and car division.

Current status: hooning around in Forza 7 in a bright green 1998 Subaru Impreza WRX, and somehow managing to get 11th on the leaderboards for the Asia-Pacific region. (Yes there's only 369 people on the entire leaderboard, shut up).

A screenshot from Dragon Age: Inquisition showing a very pale female dwarf with several facial scars and an angular geometric cross-type tattoo going from one temple to the other and from the middle of the forehead down to her chin. The sides of her head are shaved and she's got a mop of white hair on top. She's wearing leathers with animal teeth festooned across it.

I finally finished Dragon Age: Inquisition (playing as a Qunari mage) and all its DLC a couple of months ago, and decided to go back and play Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II since I hadn't before. Bioware added this really cool thing called Dragon Age Keep, it's a website where you enter in the major plot point choices you made in the first two Dragon Age games and you can start a new character in Inquisition and there'll be callbacks and history based on those choices. My new character is a dwarf rogue, and she looks fucking AWESOME. Kristina describes her a cyberpunk Viking and I'd totally agree with that. The background in DA:I for dwarven characters is that you're a member of the Carta, essentially a dwarven mercenary/criminal organisation, and the dwarves in general don't believe in the main human religion, so I'm leaning heavily into both of those things, and it's great fun.

A wide-angle screenshot of the inside of a vast alien structure. In the far distance is a huge stargate-looking thing, and running up the sides of the area are tall angular towers. The whole scene is dark blue-tinged with bright orange highlights.

A wide-angle screenshot of the inside of a vast alien structure. In the centre is a tall tower with pipes coming out of it, stretching up to an extremely dimly-lit ceiling. There are lower structures on either side, with yellow/orange strip lights running across them, and the whole scene is primarily light with dark green and dark blue lighting.

The architecture inside the Anomaly in No Man's Sky is seriously incredible!

A screenshot taken with a very wide-angle perspective of a person standing on the shore of a lake in an alien world, a set of planetary rings is visible in the sky and everything is quite magenta-tinged.

Goodness, No Man's Sky is quite the pretty game.

A photo taken from my perspective, I'm sitting on a recliner lounge with my feet up, a small blonde scruffy dog is lying on my legs, and an Xbox controller is sitting on the rear-end of the dog. I'm facing a TV that's on and showing the very start of a city in Cities: Skylines, with the two high entrances and nothing else yet.

Aw yeah, got the day off today. Started a new city in Cities: Skylines and I've got my furry little lap warmer.

A photo of a table with the current Kill Team box set terrain set up on it (very industrial, lots of tall metal-looking structures), with Death Guard facing off against Space Wolves.

I'm currently teaching Kristina how to play Kill Team!

A screenshot from Forza Motorsport 7 showing a Datsun 510 at night zooming down the finishing straight at the Nurburgring GP circuit.

Witness my glorious Seventies Brown 1970 Datsun 510!

A screenshot from Forza Motorsport 7 on the Xbox One showing a 1996 Holden HSV GTSR going around a corner mid-race.

Current status: getting in touch with my inner bogan in Forza 7.

A screenshot from Bungie's Forge Marathon map editor showing a window with a grid background, and some white polygons in it showing where the bounds of the level are.

Same as the last screenshot except the polyons are a couple of different shades of red now, indicating the different ceiling heights of the various polygons.

A screenshot from the first-person perspective inside the bounds of the polygons from the previous screenshots, looking down a hallway with tall ceilings and two panels of light on the right side casting sharp lighting across to the left.

Current status: Enjoying how easy it was to make maps back in the day with Marathon Infinity and the included map editor Forge. The Marathon games weren't true 3D but 2.5D, so the map-making process was really simple! You'd start with a top-down view, put the outlines in of where the polyons should go, then fill them, set the ceiling and floor heights, and then go into Visual Mode for texturing and light levels.

A photo taken from table level, looking across the game board from Warhammer Underworlds: Shadespire. At the right are three heavily-armoured warrior miniatures in full plate, facing them at the left are five human berserker-types wearing basically no armour at all. The table is covered in tokens and dice.

Tonight, we played Shadespire again! One guy had a warband from the newer box, and it’s definitely pretty imbalanced, we ended up going back the two core set warbands, heh. #nerding
