Reached HR5, so I thought to myself, what better way to celebrate than to take on the HR5 Alatreon event quest solo?

In hindsight, I probably should've just abandoned the quest after the FIRST time I got two-shotted. Most of the fight was just me trying to dodge his attacks while pitifully hitting him every now and then.

After a particularly vicious fight to secure the temple that left me with only six Hydralisks (still a presentable force, mind you. Hydralisks are fucking boss in Heart of the Swarm.), three Ultralisks (All with like 1/3rd health left, so one full health Ultralisk that gets three attacks and bodies. :P ) and ZERO ZERGLINGS. Completely out. This had never happened before, because I got the Swarmling strain of Zergling, so I get SWARMS of them. Three for the cost of one.

I immediately spawned the full contingent of three Hatcheries worth of Larva as Swarmlings. Instantly I am rewarded with 81 Swarmlings. (3 per egg, 9 eggs per hatchery, 3 hatcheries.) I send them to Stukov, where he is holding the temple against the Taldarim assault. The ultralisks died quickly to the basic Protoss, and my Hydralisks died to the two Hybrids. The eighty-one Zerglings only arrived as Stukov died finally, and they were quickly destroyed by the Hybrids without any support from Stukov.

The failure of this assault meant I would have to spawn a whole new assault force, and GET TO the Temple again. I didn't have enough time. :/

I go to open a blue key door. It turns out that it is not in fact a door, but a booby trap that opens two monster closets right behind me. Considering that MAP02 is almost entirely made of monster closets, I was not surprised.

I shot just about everywhere except at the Nazis, and got killed by a medium-sized cluster of brown shirts.

I just played a round as a waiter on a slow night on our station. We didn't have many patrons, but the one had were very dedicated and gave us much respect. But that calm time was stopped when a troublemaker clown popped in and made a mess with helluva of paper. When I threw him out, he started screaming something about a revolution or something. A pal of his told him to burn down the bar, and I noticed the name of the clown. Comrade Honkers or something like that. He ran away, and I was forced to  clean the dirty bar. But I planned a cunning revenge plan quickly. I noticed that the joker was running near the joint very often, so I thought that an ambush was in order. I picked up a Zippo lighter, a pack of smokes and a bottle of the finest rum we had. I smoked one of the cigs, and went out to search for the clown. I found him near the escape pods, just standing around. I pulled out my bottle and bashed it on the back of the head of the clown, and I ran, giggling incessantly. I decided that a further punishment should be applied to the foul beast, so I returned to the alcohol soaked clown. Then suddenly an electric storm struck and we lost the lights. I saw this as an occasin to strike. When he wasn't looking, I snuck up behind him and pulled out my trusty Zippo and lit it. And then I set the clown ablaze. The started screaming, shouting, but nothing was coherent. No one came. I tried to put him out, as I thought he had enough, but I was too late. I killed that poor man... for littering? What have I become? But then an occasion to redeem myself has shown. I overheard the radio saying: "Security to AI, Syndicate attacking!". I picked u pa bottle of gin and sipped a little. I ran to the AI Upload chamber and I saw heavy combat between Security and Bots versus the Syndicate killers. One of them was disguised as the Captain and was uploading new laws to the AI. I seen that my interference was needed, that without me the station would fall under the combined force of Syndicate and a rouge AI. I rushed between the lasers and hit the captain wannabe in the head with the bottle, but I didn't ahev enough time to set him on fire. I was forced to run, but the lasers of the Syndicate hit me in the back. So much pain! And those bastards weren't content with that - one of them pulled out an energy sword and cut my head pretty badly. I felt my blood flowing out quickly, and I knew that I would die soon, but I was unable to move, or fight. I died due to the massive blood loss. And I didn't even got to see the end - I lost connection  to Yogstation and I had to restart my PC. Overall, one of the most fun games I've played in a while.

I gaze into its milky depths, searching the wheat and sugar for the meanings I can never find.
It's like tea leaf divination, but with cartoon leprechauns.
There are only two sure things in life: death and taxes and lists and poor arithmetic and overlong jokes and poor memory and probably a few more things.

Temporarily set back on getting the achirvements that require over 200 people as about 15-20% of my population died of a most horrible disease: old age. I built a large cemetary with 63 graves, and within 3 years it was full. It was wave after wave of "...the Farmer has died of old age. There is no laborer to replace...". Even letting over a dozen nomads into town didn't slow it down.

On the plus side, we now have almost a full year's worth of food(ignoring non-farm income like gatherers, then it's much higher) stored and some more ready for trade.

Oh yeah, my second game I didn't build enough houses for young couples to move into so they weren't making babies and all ended up old and childless.
I kind of gave up on that town, even though the population was recovering the labour was spread way too thin.

Dark Souls II DLC is hardcore. Everything has massive immunity to all but physical damage (and it doesn't help that they nerfed offensive miracles to crap). Then I found they have an equivalent to Artorias.

Anybody who's played a significant amount of DOOM, I challenge you to say without irony that you like E3M2.
