Video games, board games, card games - whatever. I'm interested to know what you all have been playing recently.
I've been playing a lot of D&D recently. My players have just delved deep under an ancient keep to save an archaeologist from undead Tomb Spiders. I'm currently planning for this weeks game where they will hopefully encounter the giant spider brood mother.
On the video game front, I've been playing through Duke Nukem 3D. That's a game that's certainly made the test of time.

It's difficult to describe how much I adore Ephixa's style ever since he came back to making music. It's mostly future house, with catchy basses and melodies, along with some nostalgic and kinda trance-y vibes.
His latest release: Ephixa - Dreamstate
Other songs like this:
- I have great nostalgic memories listening to this in the middle of the night on a road trip across Canada :)
Ephixa & Laura Brehm - Losing You
- Laura Brehm is also one of my favourite singers, and I think the vocals work beautifully in this track
Ephixa & Laura Brehm - Deja Vu
- 👌
- This song is pretty different from the other ones. It's much heavier, and it has the most addicting bass I've ever heard. Also got me into Bossfight, another great artist

~games would seem to be more about gaming rather than development. I can see ~comp being the better option but it seems to be more about programming in general. There's also ~hobbies, which is perhaps the best place when talking about amateur stuff which can include game development, but not necessarily.
I'm mostly curious to see if there is a community of game developers here

Any recommendations of modern or not so modern point-and-click adventures (for PC)? Just finished all of Wadjet Eyes games (loved Blackwell series!) and I'm craving some good stuff. I'm interested in not-orthodox games too if there's some experimental stuff that you like. Are the telltale games worth it? I'm also tempted by the Sherlock Holmes games.
Incidentally, any advice on how to find (and make work) some old(ish) adventures? In particular looking for Discworld II and Noir, EcoQuest, Simon the Sorcerer, Hollywood Monsters, Runaway, or the older (EA I think) Sherlock Holmes games (they are not in GOG I think).
Extra bonus points if there's a way to make them work in Mac and Linux!

I don't have a long write up for this or anything, mostly because I'm just confused...
I have to admit, watching season 7, I don't remember Adam if he was ever brought in before, and his part was so short and seemingly inconsequential, I honestly have no strong feelings for it. Shiro is all about burying his feelings and putting the needs of others above his own, so it's not at all out of character for his personal life to basically never show up. Still, we're finally getting more of his backstory, and I can't help but feel it's lacking.
So, I guess my question is - why? Why bring in a character they're not going to develop and kill off screen? Would it be better just to have a random mention of Shiro being gay and just moving on, which I guess is pretty much all that happened anyways? Guess they could have done it as part of his backstory with Keith. Does this count as queer-baiting?
Thoughts?
Correction: guess he didn't die off screen. I just didn't recognize the random pilot as Adam...
