Sorry, I'd decided it was time to finish FF XV for once and for all this weekend. I'm still finishing it. I ain't talking to anyone until I'm done.
(j/k, happy to join something tomorra if you've got any ideas for games we have in common)

Did you guys end up playing anything today? Afraid I missed it due to being out on BOATING ADVENTURES.
RE: Destiny 2. No thank you! After the whole Division Debacle I don't wanna play anything that has similar leveling systems.
Nah, nothing happened.
I get where you're coming from with Destiny 2. Personally, I find general play is a lot easier to mix up progression levels between players than the Division, as the world autolevelling really works well in it. A fight that's a struggle at level one remains a challenge at level thirty.
Sure, power level makes a difference in end-game activities, but you can happily ignore those and continue pootling around the world getting into interesting scrapes.
It also does something with gear that I'm really impressed with, and I think a lot of other games in the same genre could do worse than follow suit:
If you pick up a piece of equipment that's got higher stats than the one you're already using, but is more boring to use or doesn't have the right mods, you can consume it to bring your favoured piece of gear up to the same power level. I'm still using equipment I picked up really early in the game thanks to this. You don't have to scrap an item as soon as something marginally better in stats comes along. That's absolutely massive in a game about loot.

Is anyone around tomorrow? My problem is that I may or may not be, and I may only know relatively late, unfortunately - which doesn't help much. :-/ If I'm around, I'm up for any of the usual ones: Rec Room (it's been a while!), Ghost Recon or any of the others.

I'm around.
I see Rec Room is sticking to the mandatory guidelines for Online Games in 2018, and has instituted a Battle Royale mode.

I guess we could try that? I'd also be up for more Ghost Recon or GTA.
Thirith on 16/6/2018 at 09:38
I'd be up for that sometime, though today looks pretty unlikely at my end. That video also makes me wonder whether Natural Locomotion now works in the various game modes too; I'd definitely be curious to see how well that works compared to teleport mode.

This Saturday I'd suggest Arma for the regular slot. If I forgot to send you a Steam message to that effect, I'm sorry.
Anyway, good luck with your trucking company!

Yeah I'll give the trucking game a whirl. PM me what I need to do. 10PM UTC would be 7am JST Sunday morning for me, which is fine although 1 or 2 hours later might be a bit more comfortable. But either way I won't be in such a sleepy stupor like I tend to be towards the end of the Arma sessions.

Hold on, I meant 10AM-2PM, are those times ok with you?
Sorry, we don't use the AM/PM thing over here. It's very confusing!
Thirith, you did indeed send a message about the Arma. Slipped my mind.
