Almost finished BG3 (at almost 100 hours on this playthrough), then planning to start Starfield!

 

Been playing a lot of Baldur’s Gate this week and it really got me in the mood to make something a bit more fantasy-oriented!

 
 

A dark Sci-Fi scene made in Blender and Photoshop. I generated the silhouette of the running woman using DALL.E and then cleaned it up in Photoshop - much easier than drawing the silhouette, Googling for ages to find the right image, or just posing a character in the scene, which would have also been slower and more intensive when rendering.

Pretty happy with this one!

Good luck, you got this!

Been another week of pointless stressful bullshit at work for me, which eats into my real life outside of work more than I'd like. That being said, making some progress on finding a therapist (a surprisingly difficult process it seems) and also a driving instructor -- almost made it to 30 without learning to drive, but the time is now!

Also starting the process of ditching music streaming in favour of Bandcamp, which has been fun. Been feeling some real nostalgia for the old days of buying tracks off iTunes!

Apollo all the way, sad to see it go

Dorfromantik is a very chill puzzle game that runs great on Steam Deck if that’s your thing, a favourite of mine while the TV is going in the background.

If you’re into factory games I 1000% recommend Shapez, which is a shape-building game that doesn’t have the notion of grinding or currency or running out of resources. It’s immensely satisfying when you get the perfect mechanism together and you’re churning out shapes. Definitely one for mouse and keyboard though.

Definitely, had a similar experience of r/antiwork giving me a bit of a nudge to leave a crappy job where I had some similarly unfortunate conversations with management. Hope you’re enjoying the new career!

That’s brilliant, hope to see Reddit turn into nothing but a slew of super-specific protest posts.
