    Indeed it is (not finished yet; I die too often, but getting better (and stronger, which helps too)).

    I like how you don't start a new loop right away, but you always have a small break in the camp, seeing what changed, listing to some piece of story or some unique one-off comments from some NPCs.

    I just checked my last bill: I pay "Grundpreis" per day, and "Arbeitspreis" per kw/h. More than 50% of my bill is the first, so saving power is basically irrelevant for me.

    That looks really fun. How good do the flippers (that's what they called?) play? Responsive enough, with enough precision?

    I remember finding Hades I slow, but I did not play it long (since I refunded it). Might also just not have been in the mood for it that day back.

    Also HadesII. I had no patience for Basion, and HadesI I refunded, but this one is fun. Usually I put audio on the monitor speakers, but this I play with headphones, it's just so nice.

    Could it be these hilarious emails which claim to have recorded webcam videos of me doing "private things", and ask for bitcoins? That's the kind of thing which you might not want to bring up as evidence, and matches the TV paranoia, since the (non-existing camera) has to be somewhere.
