Adios, 2020

 

I figured I would try to get one last post here before the end of the year.

Like most of you, I will not be sad to see 2020 over. I am worried about what 2021 will bring. And I have a few more days to see if I was right and we get invaded by aliens this year. I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords.

I do have some more stuff in the works and I feel bad for not posting the last month or so. Like most everyone, this year has been rough and my desire to do anything but watch movies and eat donuts is pretty low. I ran out of steam in October, tried to press on a few more weeks, and then needed to do something else. If you've been paying attention, I did start another blog here, this time about anime. And I'll be posting links there to here when it comes up.

Going forward, I'm going to try to keep updating here on Fridays but I don't know if I can do every week anymore. As always, it'll probably come and go. If you want me to cover something, or post pictures of stuff I'm working on, feel free to let me know. Hopefully, the vaccine for The Plague will be available soon and I can get in some games again. I have quite a few I'm itching to play but they aren't worth my life or the lives of others. I've also been fighting the new interface here, which you can see if you check the pages, they're all kinds of screwed up these days. I'm going to have to figure something out soon...

Since my drive has returned, I already have two posts ready to come out next month. I've been trying out the auto post stuff on the anime blog and I'm going to give it a go here as well. I think it works okay, I just have to remember to set it up and not post like I normally do, letting them out as I finish them. I also need to get some stuff finished for some of the games I can play solo, like have my space cleared so I can actually play them.

I've never been one to chase trends so don't expect me to post about some hot new thing all of the sudden. Unless it's one of the few things I'm actively waiting for (StarGrave, looking at you). I do pay attention to what gets hits and that does factor in a bit. I have a few things I want to do for Cyberpunk 2020, now that Cyberpunk 2077 has come out and people are finding my old review of the 2020 game, and I have more to say about it since I've expanded my collection of books for the game. That's just one thing I can see doing more of in the future.

Okay, I'm just rambling now, time to wrap it up. In short, I make no promises, but I will try to keep posting and spreading the word. If you have something you want me to do, let me know.

Let's hope 2021 is at least slightly better than 2020. Let's not get our hopes too high...
