Not that it's huge interest, but Myst 3 is fully uploaded with edited descriptions and can be found on the channel page under the puzzle games section at the bottom.
Or just...follow this link:

Also started Myst 5 and...I'm uh...not impressed so far, which is really surprising. Going to change some settings and see if it helps some but, yeah. I feel like by going full 3D they uh...kind of dropped the ball a bit. Also I want to punch everyone in the face and there's weird tablets that make me draw with a mouse and I felt like I was playing Dungeon Keeper 2 at first. Captain goggles won't leave me alone and that's part of what made the Myst games so good. There was an underlying feeling of tension and being completely, utterly alone to figure out all the puzzles. Here's there's just an obnoxious guy who follows me around saying he'll give me help and then just beams up to the Starship Enterprise whenever he feels like he's being cryptic.
Also they screwed up a small piece of the story and it bugs me.
At the end of Myst, Atrius is like, thanks for your help but I can't send you home (but have fun poking around a deserted island!). Then in Riven Atrius says that if I help him bring his wife back, then he can potentially get me home (and at the end I may or may not have gotten there?). Then in Myst 5, Yeesha states in her emo journal that I "returned to help save her mother" and I most certainly did not. I was already there and I agreed to do it partially cause I believed I could get home at the end.
Sheesh.
Will keep with it cause...I want to finish the series, but really...

Settled-Ish
I am so close to finishing Sonic 2006, but I rage quit because Silver's part of the final shin-dig makes me slowly die inside.
Also I'm moved into the new place now. There's lots of issues like the shower head needing to be replaced (it was just...drifting to the side when you use it), the bathtub fixed or replaced (it's an old jet tub and shoots out black stuff when you try and use the jets), light fixtures need to be fixed/replaced (the bulbs were all burnt out and like, broke when attempting to replace) and the faucet leaked. Other than that, it's pretty good.
At least the floor is in now.
Video work is slow again due to being too exhausted after moving things, unpacking and trying to fix. Also started a new contracting job, which I'm trying to figure out a comfortable working schedule for.
In either case, uploading has resumed as of today.
I'll try to go through the Extra Life footage and post the good parts soon. Sonic 2006 was part of that sooooo we'll see.

I Have Ink on My Hands
And my pen still isn't working.
Tonight is my last night living in my current residence. While I really like the new place and I'm excited to have the extra space, I feel a little sad sitting in a mostly empty room in a house I likely won't see again. I mostly liked this house and it's given me some great stories, even if they were annoying at the time.
Goodbye streetracers, swing lady, teens getting high in the park, people pooping in cars, people breaking into sheds, people peeping through windows, random cats that arrive and sit on me, Pokemon Go gym, trucks that speed through the dirt alleyway and crash into recycling bins, aggressive borking dogs on the corner and people driving the wrong way down the narrow one-way street after hitting the curb and making their tire explode.
At least no one pooped on my garage (happened to my boss last week).
Anyway...moving to a theoretically quieter neighbourhood. Only concern I have there is there's a good number of old people that might get weird about stuff, but we'll see. Already know that neighbours are watching since I got locked out of the house due to flooring people locking the wrong lock (don't have a key for the one lock) and I tried all the keys given to me like three times and tried them at the back door and then tried to force the doorknob and realizing someone was watching me and then leaving cause I didn't want to explain everything to the police.
This has since been fixed and the doorknob changed, but not before I had to get my grandpa's driver's licence, which was in my grandma's purse for some reason and a permission note from him to open the place...
Sigh.
Video work will continue when I'm settled. For now, been working on releasing Myst 3 (unreleased videos in public playlist on channel), not that people are all that interested in it.
