    Howlongtobeat allows to submit play times and mark the category (i.e. playing/completed) with rating/review system.
    I marked some games couple years ago, but as I mostly just care about playtime. So Steam (and "gameplay time tracker" software, which site is now down) manages that fine for me.

    Being from Finland, here are two casseroles that are relatively easy to make decent batch:

    I haven't done exactly as those recipes but they seem to season them more than versions I do.

    For Ham and potato casserole we have ready made frozen potato-onion mixes here making it even easier/faster. Then it takes around ~5minutes of active cooking and then just having it in oven.

    That cinematic was absolutely amazing. Also the game itself looks really great so thanks for introducing it, going to get it at some point.

    FF9 escaping the forest

    It is amazing how FF9 managed to make Blank really likeable (at least for me) in such a short amount of time. Even after decades this cinematic hits really hard. For me the combination of gameplay before this cinematic is probably what made it really great for me played (and replayed) it as a kid and almost 15 years later.

    My last 7 days

    Found out about "30 Seconds to Mars" and been listening mainly the first 2 albums (self titled and beautiful lie) and some this is war. I haven't played the 2 newer albums through yet as parts I have listened weren't really for my taste.

    As I usually listen only listen Hybrid Theory and Meteora from Linkin Park I have also added Minutes to Midnight or at least parts of it back. For couple last week I have been enjoying 4 songs in a row here and there:

    • Lost
    • Given up
    • What I've done
    • No more sorrow.

    I have SodaStream just to carbonate tap water. Saves from carrying bottles between home and back to store for deposit. I once calculated the cost per liter to be way cheaper compared to store bought but I do not remember if I took the cost of SodaStream bottle into account. I still drink some mineral waters, where I mainly like to drink Hartwall's Vichy original.

    BattleBit Remastered is really nicely done block style battlefield like of fps.

    Assassin's Creed: Origins is pretty nice SP game you can relatively easy to get in and out of for small pieces of gametime. Has that AC gameplay and that Egypt theme.
    Also runs around 40fps on steam deck, so I been playing some side missions during commute and what not.

    How does the Deck run Assassin's Creed Origins? I been playing it currently, but also I could start playing it during commute. Do might install it on to mu deck.

    I am currently using EVGA Z15 where I have modded/swapped:

    • Installed USB-C port instead of hard cable
    • Swapped to Feker pandas that I lubed, swapped 80g springs and filmed
    • EVA pad around the switch
    • Foam under switches
    • Yellow masking taped I think 3 layers under PCB
    • Keycaps: Yai-Hao Sunshine - I really like the coloring.
    • Durock stabilizers

    Keycaps as nordic layout are hard to find. I also have KBParadise monkey king, Ducky Ultra Violet and KBDfans blank pink/blue, but I just like the color of these Tai-Haos too much.
    As cable I put together purple paracord USB-C cable
    Also running Mionix long pad wristrest as it is only 1cm thin.

    Currently waiting for Dygma defy, to test split keyboards. Backed the kickstarter

    My 7day 3x3 grid from tapmusic
    These are pretty usual on my list

    • Linkin Park - Meteora and Hybrid Theory
    • Slipknot - IOWA and .Vol 3

    These might swap around:

    • Billy Talent - Billy Talent II
    • Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium
    • Bullet for my valentine - The Poison - This one surprised me somewhat
    • Slipknot - Slipknot and We Are Not Your Kind

    Also I usually listen some System of a down, Korn, Gorillaz, Bring me the horizon (Don't really enjoy early albums but like a lot Post Human: survival horror EP) among others.
    Used to only some eurobeat (Initial D soundtrack albums) at one point.
