I hope you enjoy! It’s kinda like an environmentalist’s Roadside Picnic.

Highly recommend the first book that the movie was based on. To a certain extent enjoyed the two sequels of the original trilogy.

Jeff Vandermere just released a new prequel book called Absolution that was a little bit tougher of a read for me for some reason (probably because it has been nearly 8 years since I read the original series), but still fascinating if you like the area X books.

He has some other weird fiction books that are definitely worth scoping out too: Borne is very different from annihilation but the characters have really stuck in my head since I read it. Almost everything he touches seems to touch on humanity’s relationship with the environment.

Does SSX count as a racing game?

If so, SSX was huge for my prepubescent self.

Absolutely love this album. This song, in circles, and wood and wire are some of my favorites.

When this album got leaked, there was this “You are listening to a Vagrant Records advance promotional stream” message that would play about every 45 seconds that I have strange nostalgia for.

Gotcha, that’s a bummer. I think it’s unlikely that they would revert the ban. Does it straight up say you are banned or does it use the terminology “you have been penalized”?

At any rate - may be worth checking out the seamless multiplayer mod. I don’t have any personal experience with it but I do remember reading that it doesn’t technically use From’s servers. So if you use that offline it may not matter if you are banned by From - you could still be able to engage with multiplayer users of the mod. I can’t confirm this, but maybe someone else knows more.

This answer is based on what I know from DS3 so may not be 100% applicable to ER.

Unfortunately, unless you were banned by some mistake by FromSoft, I think it is unlikely that they will unban your account. You can try to email their support staff, but they historically tend to be pretty rigid about these kind of things.

In the past people have been able to get back online on Steam by setting up family sharing accounts - however going through this route you won’t be able to use your preexisting characters and will need to start over again. I have no idea if this is still an option or not.

Do you have any idea about why the ban was applied to your account? Were you using any overhaul mods or other mods? For the future - a good amount of mods recommend that you put the game in offline mode to avoid getting flagged for banning when you log in to From’s servers, so always read the install instructions on any mods closely.
