Finished Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon a few days ago. It's janky, the quest design is lacking and some mechanics are not very fleshed out. But the lore and world is really cool and the story was intriguing.

Final Fantasy Magic preprelease done. Went 3-1. It's a really enjoyable set, mechanically! I'm not a fan of `Instant Ramen` being a card now, but hey, c'est la vie.

Just finished Like a Dragon : Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii. Really great fun, in true series fashion, but it also managed to stick the landing. If the previous game had a horrendously paced endgame, this one was perfect.

Also happy that they went back to brawler instead of turn based.

Had great fun with it!

I just saw there is going to be a live action remake of How to Train Your Dragon. The trailer looks cool. A shame the movie already exists, has aged well and already looked great. I am confused.

Watched (listened?) Turandot at the opera yesterday. Beautiful visuals, fun choreography, really weird plot and some very unlikable characters. Would recommend.

Also remembered to migrate all of my domains and hosting from a US host to a European one. Gentle nod to see if you need to as well! #hosting #buyeuropean

Did the M:tG prerelease yesterday. Tarkir Dragonstorm is a good fun set. Went 3-0 on the back of 2 botanist doggos being great doggos and great cards.

Shoutout to the Brotherhood Games in London for also being a really cool place.

Thoughts from my trip to Japan:
- it feels funny to tower over people in Osaka and Kyoto. Not the case as much in Tokyo
- if you're in Osaka, go to Johnny's Karaage. It was beyond amazing and tasty and good
- the deer in Nara park are adorable and wonderful
- Akihabara is hilarious and overwhelming
- 7-11 / Family Mart / Lawson are genius
- I am so annoyed that London does not encourage small businesses more. Japan has understood the assignment and it's great in that regard

_The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen_ movie is a movie of all time. It's not great. Very superficial characters and mediocre plot. Entertaining fight scenes.

Finished Avowed a few days ago.
It does not have the narrative depth of PoE 1 and 2.
Nor the breadth of interesting companions as, well, most CRPGs.
But it is a good action RPG. Enjoyable, with some engaging choices, interesting factions and fun mechanics.

It's fantasy Outer Worlds, but better.

Overall, I enjoyed it!

Did you know that if you forget to set a single variable on an element in a gstreamer pipeline, and you don't consume every single frame available, it'll keep piling them up in memory until it kills your RAM? I found out today! Don't forget your `max-buffers`.
