Tuesday Afternoon Commute: A Copy Of A Copy Of A Copy

a-copy-of-a-copy-of-a-copy

I’m just fucking done, man.

The semester has unravelled my precariously knitted-together psyche, spooling it across the OMNIVERSE. If you’ve randomly tripped today, know that it was probably a shredded, knotted, bloodied-strand of my former-consciousness. What was formerly an ebullient, marginally sarcastic whelp has been transformed into a quick-to-fret, foggy-headed nightmare.

I’m just fucking done, man.

This here is Monday Morning Commute, by way of Tuesday Afternoon, sponsored by Ennui and A Colossal, Albeit Ineffective Amount of Caffeine.

This is what I’m looking forward to, this is what’s on my mind, this is what’s simmering in my soul, this week.

Weekend Open Bar: Welcome Fellow Travellers!

grettings

Welcome, fellow travellers! Welcome here to the Open Bar, upon the Space-Ship Omega! I #cantstop and I #wontstop the cheesy, but ultimately enjoyable (for me) conceit! You know, the one about this website being a Space-Ship. You know, the one about us being denizens of a shuddering, weathered, but comforting hunk of self-propelling space-junk amid the abyss of the internet cosmos.

‘Final Fantasy XV’ begins “Open World”, becomes more “Linear” in Second Half

Final Fantasy 15

I don’t really know what to make of this news. Or rather, I don’t know what it means. Apparently Final Fantasy XV is going to start off “open world”, as the magical boy band drives around the world. Fighting Titans, jerking each other off in gas station bathrooms (as all bro road trips should be), cruising in their car. However, the title will become more linear in the second half of the game. Okay. Fine. I’m sort of with it so far. But what gives me a pause is when in an interview the game director says “we made it in a way that you’ll also get to advance through it as you have in conventional Final Fantasy games“, which, huh. Wait.

Report: ‘Final Fantasy XV’ getting Six DLC Packs. At the least.

Final Fantasy 15

FFXV’s Season Pass is going to run $25. However, if the game and its DLC is worth a damn, this will end up being a good deal, given that it pays for six DLC packs. That said, I’ve never had a goddamn Season Pass work out for me. Actually, Borderlands 2. And Fallout 4. Okay so a couple, fuck you.

‘Final Fantasy XV’ E3 2016 Gameplay Trailer: Attack on Titan

Holy fucking shit, does the scale of this battle look tremendous. I’m more/less resenting how excited this game is making me, as I assume that it’s just going to end up disappointing me. But! Maybe it won’t? Please don’t, FF XV. Please don’t.
