Hello and welcome to Wednesday! It’s been a while since I handled the news roundup, so to tell you what I’ve been playing would take a long time. Lately, it’s all about The Sims—I’m in one of those Sims throes where all I want to do is play, and the temptation of the Cottage Living expansion is seriously tempting me to stick with it long after I would normally burn out. I can grow pumpkins! Did you see that rainbow cow in the trailer? Did you hear Japanese Breakfast in Simlish? EA may be one of the games industry’s most mustache-twirling villains and the cottagecore fad may have diminished somewhat but I feel sufficiently pandered to and will almost certainly be purchasing this expansion.

Hello and welcome to GYGO! I’m Kael, your local expatriated American, and it sure has been a week for news. Luckily most of it has been outside of the gaming sphere, giving me time to process and even start playing Ring Fit Adventure as a nice distraction. It’s been nice to be able to move my body in a fun way, even while mostly confined to my apartment. Anyway, here’s the news! (more…)
