I did absolutely no story stuff today but I did a ton of exploration in the overworld, found a bunch of interesting optional areas, grabbed some cool gear, and had a lot of fun zooming around with <redacted> #Expedition33

Well, I'm still not recovered from the act I ending but we continue! #Expedition33

So we're now on the third attempt to make me a new pair of glasses. First pair fell apart when the optician was adjusting them. Second pair turned out to be frames that had been recalled and the manufacturer didn't tell the optician until we chased. Picked out new frames. Third try will be lucky?

Finished Act I of #Expedition33 and I'm going to need some time to recover from that. Just wow. (Also, I ship Luné and Sciel.)

I'm very happy to be starting my "surprise" long weekend now. Please don't ask how many times today I asked why we weren't doing X until Tuesday and had to be reminded about the holiday. My brain really didn't want to accept this input.

I got some #Expedition33 time in this evening (first evening of the week with nothing on) and I think I'm starting to get a handle on how to use Sciel. And it occurred to me after I turn off the PS5 that I could switch Gustave out and have all three of my girls in the party. They will DESTROY 😁

Thank you to my lovely staff who gently explained that it's May and we have a bank holiday on Monday that I'd completely forgotten about so we can't plan a deployment that day. Yay surprise long weekend? 😂 How the fuck is it MAY already.

Annie-cat has decided that her time today is better spent bathing in the sunshine at the patio door instead of on my lap in my office and I can't blame her. It's gorgeous out there.

The fact that #Expedition33 was made by a team of thirty people in a new studio is amazing. It looks so gorgeous, it plated so smoothly, and the writing is excellent. It's also heart breaking, but that's because I care about the characters so much already and I've barely scratched the surface.

The thing that I really enjoy about turn-based combat is the puzzle-like strategy of looking at the turn order and figuring how how to use my characters to feed into each other's abilities and do maximum damage to bosses. It's really satisfying when you get it right.

I think #Expedition33 might be my entire personality for the next little while. It's so good. Such good writing. Such lovely crunchy RPG mechanics to dig into. So gorgeous to look at and listen to. I'm so glad is living up to the trailers that made me excited in the first place.

Taking a lunch break but this game is absolutely beautiful. Both visually and through the use of music. It's also so emotional #Expedition33 So many feelings on life and grief and how people live with the knowledge of their death.

I'm awake, I'm ready for this. Gosh just this start screen music is gorgeous.

We got back to my house at 3am this morning and went straight to bed (so glad I booked a taxi). Today has mainly been gently recovering from travel and jet lag. I waved @bishbosh.bsky.social off to her home a short while ago. Suspect I'll be having an early night today.

That post-holiday slightly deflated feeling was slightly helped by @bishbosh.bsky.social treating us to an afternoon tea at home experience. Delicious! And so thoughtful 🥰

I'm so excited for this game *nervously checks preorder page*

Last day of our holiday so we're making the most of the pool and the sunshine before our return to cloudy rainy England.

I think we have concluded we are not running off for day trips on this holiday. Books, pool time, relaxing is where we are at. Perfect.

Demon killing

Today we had an entire spa experience, got thoroughly scrubbed and massaged, which was fantastic. And then in the afternoon I got brave and went swimming in the pool. Lovely day 😁

We have been having a beach afternoon. Mostly napping on loungers. @bishbosh.bsky.social is trying the ocean. From her body language, it's no warmer than the pool 😂

We are having a poolside relaxation day 😁 @bishbosh.bsky.social is braving the unheated outdoor pool and I'm enjoying the expressions she's making 😅
