Wylde Flowers (Studio Drydock); my official review, part five

I am full-on trying to finish up the hundo chievo, which means marrying four people (and divorcing them) as rapidly as possible in quick succession. Doing this really underscores some of the weaknesses of the game. Such as the repeating dialogue. And how cringy the relationships are (in general), especially when you’re speed-running them.

So. I’ve been playing Wylde Flowers (Studio Drydock) almost exclusively since I got it. This is part four of my official review, and I am thisclose to being done with it.

My actual goals for my re-birthday, part four

In yesterday’s post, I mostly focused on martial arts. I want to set that aside for this post and contradict what I had said in yesterday’s post about not having any more goals for this upcoming year. This is going to be family-focused, and it probably isn’t going to be pretty. Because family isn’t pretty.… Continue Reading

My actual goals for my re-birthday, part three

I’m still thinking about the goals for this year. In yesterday’s post, I talked a lot about Taiji and Bagua and the weapons I want to learn/how hard it is to find a Double Sword Form. I did add one more actual goal, and I’ll add a few more in today’s post (probably). I’m still… Continue Reading
