10/21/2024 Weekly what's up

What I’m reading

  • After re-reading all of the Stormlight Archive in preparation for Wind and Truth I read Warbreaker for the first time. It was delightful, and now likely in my top 5 Sanderson books. I hope he gets to write the sequel someday.
  • I’m slowly working my way through [The Absorbent Mind], one chapter at a time each Rory feeding. More to say on this when I finish.

What I’m playing

  • I dove back into Satisfactory after the 1.0 update and sunk too many hours into a new save. These factory games scratch an itch that I get less of in my day-to-day work these days.
  • Metaphor ReFantazio is a surprise hit any may end up being my GOTY. I would not call myself a JRPG/Atlus fan, having only played 15 hours or so of Persona 3 Reload earlier this year. This one has me hooked though, and is the most fun I’ve had with an RPG since Baldur’s gate 3.

What I’m up to

  • We spent the weekend at Tahoe and took a nice hike with Rory up past Eagle lake. Great to be in the mountains again, I’m ready for winter!
