Bonus question: What’s your least favorite household chore?
​Andrew Ross (@dengarsw): Oh man, I’ve been having such a blast with Pokemon Go. It’s such a bummer I can’t physically play with people coming back to the game for Community Day, but ah well, that’s COVID life. That ought to be most of the game weekend, but I’ll try to sneak in some Animal Crossing too. We just had a catalogue party for all the seasonal toys and a lot of the clothing, so I’ve slowly started to decorate for winter. Some Halloween stuff is staying though. No compromises.
Ooh, I like this one! Least favorite chore is probably taking the garbage out and bringing it in, probably since it’s my parents’ place. My place in Japan wasn’t that much better, but I could take trash and recycling out to the communal area any day of the week and it was fine. Ah, that was the sweet life.
Ben Griggs (@braxwolf): Playing: World of Warships and Elite Dangerous
Chore: dog poop
Brianna Royce (@nbrianna, blog): Painting. Oh, you mean video games. In that case, City of Heroes. But yeah, mostly painting. And the one after that!
Taking out the garbage for sure. I’d pretty much rather do anything else.
Chris Neal (@wolfyseyes, blog): I’m thinking of making my steps into the hellscape that is omnicrafting in Final Fantasy XIV, though it will be alongside a friend, so that should make it less miserable. Otherwise, little dabbles into Dauntless and Elite Dangerous as before.
Dishes. Primarily because our miserable little box of an apartment has no dishwasher. And since I’m the one who cooks on top of it, it’s doubly annoying. Particularly since my husband is, very frequently, awful at hand washing dishes.
Eliot Lefebvre (@Eliot_Lefebvre, blog): Mostly stuff from the most recent FFXIV patch, if I’m being honest. I also have a longing for a single-player RPG, but I’m not sure what just yet. It’ll probably surprise even me.
Generally, my biggest problem is picking up. I don’t mind any other part of cleaning, even taking care of litterboxes, but just picking up things around me is a habit I’m not good about getting into.
Tyler Edwards (blog): Right now I’m mainly splitting my attention between Tell Me Why and exploring Bloodtrail in Wolcen. It’s funny because they couldn’t be more different – gentle and introspective on one side, wading knee deep in demon entrails on the other – but I’m quite enjoying both. Once I finish Tell Me Why I’m thinking of giving the Halo Master Chief Collection a try.
Bonus question: Pretty much all household chores are about as fun as a root canal. Washing dishes by hand is the worst, but I have a counter-top dishwasher, so thankfully I don’t have to do that too often.
Pierre, patron: I’m playing Cyberpunk 2077. I’m at the very beginning of what looks like a very long game, especially for someone like me who’s an explorer of this kind of open world experience. The writing is very good, the music’s amazing, and the game is gorgeous, even without RTX on (I’m playing on PC and don’t have one of those fancy RTX cards). The game seems well balanced in terms of optimization. Bugs, you will probably ask? Anyone who has done some computer programming knows that it’s humanly impossible to release such a huge game without bugs, especially on PC with the multiplicity of hardware configurations.
Even if Cyberpunk will occupy most of my time, I will probably play some Destiny 2 for a change and to progress my season rank a little more.
Bonus question: Ironing, I really loathe ironing. My personal hell: ironing chores for eternity, with a pile of clothes that never ends. Can I convince one of you, MOP readers, to do my ironing this week? Or have you something else scheduled this weekend, maybe some gaming? Let us know in the comments.
