Nothing like flagging on your run and the Elden Ring theme song coming on, screaming at you to GIT GUD.

โ€œTo make a romance really sing in a video game, there has to be something that you as the hero are uniquely positioned to help this character with. There's probably something you have to sacrifice that is a measure of how much you love them. Especially in a Choices Matter game, are you willing to go after this love interest if it jeopardizes your chance of getting the special weapon that will help you one-shot that boss?โ€ - Tara Tai

@taratai.com and I talked about the best romantic storylines in games, and how they wrote a rom-com about two game devs who butt heads while writing romantic storylines in a new video game. Meta!

Some days, you share an elevator with a PEN/Hemingway award winner but don't recognize her, and when she asks about your Baldur's Gate 3 shirt, you tersely say, "It's an owlbear."

Then you see the line for people waiting to get books signed by her and realize your mistake. ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

See y'all at PAX. Didn't have enough time to get my Lune cosplay together so I'll be Alta from Wanderstop. Ask me for tea. (Really.)

Wife scored a free exhibitor pass to #paxeast, and if that's not the single most Single Player Cat Li thing to happen to us, idk what is.

Just started reading Single Player by @taratai.com and as a queer person who left a steady career in healthcare admin to go to school for game dev, I feel so seen lol

If you're a type A, chronically burnt out person and want to cry at least once an hour, I highly recommend Wanderstop. What a deeply clever, deeply introspective, not-quite-cozy game.

Thanks for the lovely review and thanks for reading! And I paraphrased/reworded a deep cut party banter Varric shared with Dorian in the epigraph. :)
