The only think I don’t have on hand are angel ghosts and lochness mothmen in the Forgotten Realms, though I think you probably could find the former.

Why emulate it? NFS Carbon had a PC port.

they should have turned the gender flipped version into a movie

Not a lot this year. Technically there were quite a few games I installed, ran for a tiny bit didn’t return to, but not many I actually played. I’ve had a hard time getting into things - I don’t want to learn a new system, I don’t want to dedicated the next 40+ hours to a story and I don’t want to spend a lot of time fiddling with things.

Citizen Sleeper 2 - It’s not as good as the first, but it’s still a short, narrative based game I think I completed in just a night or a day off or something. I appreciate that. Though maybe it is as good as the first post-DLC, it’s a rare game where I think the best time to play it was right at launch as the additional content added in patches robbed a lot of the impact from the alternate endings. 7/10

Dispatch - Another short, narrative based game. It’s just superhero popcorn filler, and an extremely linear “choose your own adventure” but it’s very competently done with some excellent vocal performances. Me and my partner had a great time with it. 8/10

Fortnight - My partner likes it so I got roped into it when we had to spend a few weeks apart as something to do together online. I fucking loathe so much about this game. The predatory cash shop. The constant, massive updates. The fact it has that fucking Unreal Engine stutter that everyone swears is the fault of lazy devs but even Epic can’t fix in their own games. The horrific, aesthetic whip lash. The fact that it performs like shit and looks so blah. The fact that it is buggy as all hell. 2/10 and I only gave it any points because I enjoy my partner enjoying things.

Aeon Flux is the only one I can think of not mentioned yet. 90s, Cyberpunk, Hyperviolent - it’s just not Japanese, though it is animated. It’s weird, and the first two seasons are are series of shorts.

That was surprisingly good

I picked blue, purple and black.

Just going to work through this, but:

I already got ears, not sure what a tail would add. Seems like it might be inconvenient even. Pass.

I don’t need estrogen. If I somehow need it later, it’s readily available in forms other than pill. Pass.

I actually like my body hair, it’s soft and feels nice when people play with it. Pass.

Look $20 is $20 but come on, pass.

I’d have passed on a more competitive board because the person I want to find me attractive already does, but this is still just broadly useful. Taking this one.

The difference between the best pizza I have ever had and the best pizza I have ever made isn’t much in the grand scheme of things. It’s not like there isn’t a difference, but at it’s best it’s not exactly a mind blowing meal. Pass.

I was originally really high on water tasting and feeling like my favorite drink until I remember we use water for a lot more than drinking. Can you imagine cooking pasta in your favorite soft drink? Pass.

I can already talk to cats. They sometimes talk to me too. Mostly it’s “I want food” and “I want you to open this door”. I don’t need a pill for this. Pass.

Not having to sleep is potentially such a brutal monkey’s paw answer but I’m willing to risk it. Taking this one.

I guess I’ve got to circle back, and I’m going for master pizza chef. I almost went with $20, but I guess master pizza chef takes pizza from a fun thing I can make sometimes to a potentially marketable skill.

There is some recency bias, but Pluribus as well. It’s the only water cooler show I’ve come across in years where people actually want to talk about in real life.

Maybe hot take but I’m still interested in Zero Parades, despite ZA/UM being stolen. A CRPG about a spy who is a burn out is extremely my shit and it’s one of the few studios that have unionized.
