Chapter 4 good stuff
All the stars in the sky are waiting for you.
Ah, next up we have an Intermission chapter. They're practically telegraphing a Rean cameo here, especially after reading the extra story involving him at the end of Reverie because this is the area where it took place, if I'm not mistaken.

I'm not a big golf guy, but I do pay attention to the majors. It was nice to see Rory finally win the Masters and complete the career Grand Slam after such a long drought.

Same, I'd been pulling for him to do the last few years - glad to see it finally happen.

Oh my word, what are the odds in Daybreak that Maxim is looking for Paulette and Yume? I feel like that's what they're hinting at pretty strongly.

By pure chance I saw that HBO was replaying Chernobyl (HBO is so weird about replaying its acclaimed series I swear) so I was finally able to catch the series after missing it back in 2019 when it debuted .

Good, haunting watch.

Wow, Paulette just casually destroying Maxim's soul was fantastic

Chernobyl rocks.

With Paulette and Maxim, could you (or someone) clarify for me why they broke up in the first place? I feel like that was somewhat unclear.

shouldn't you have HBO streaming if you have HBO? I thought they were bundled together

Maxim let the success of being a champion racer go to his head and became a playboy, so Paulette left him.

seems bizarre to me to have hbo but not the app!
yet all azuarc of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness
look no one has said i am good at any of this

Ive always held, and have maintained public statements therein, that Thorn - xp1337, if you will - is good at this.

My political career is now in shambles.

Right. But wasn't there something in there about him not actually cheating on her? Maybe I'm misremembering...

Nah, he definitely did, but he gave up that lifestyle after she left him, although he still has that reputation, hence the tabloid story about him and Judith.

Gotcha, thanks. As I recall, they also weren't married and he didn't know she was pregnant? I can't remember for sure though.

Yeah, those are both correct.

Yes, Daybreak, continue to push the Van/Elaine ship, the true OTP of this game

shouldn't need to spoil that tbqh - that's just true facts.

Checked in on crunchyroll and saw they have some anime available again for some award season. Re:Zero was one of them but only part of Season 3 (I guess it was two cours and only the first? idk) but unfortunately the first episode was like movie length or something and not made free so it's like... "well that defeats the point lol"

so i just went "well be that way i'll watch the superior isekai" and watched Konosuba S3 instead which was also there. Mixed feelings on the season because it felt like it leaned more into serious than comedy for the most part... but I mean it's konosuba so there's always comedy but y'know.

Effectively it was. It was two sets of 8 episode and episode 1 was very long.
My bracket looked like random picks compared to his.
Congrats to azuarc for winning the GotD 2020 Guru Contest!
The Intermission chapter of Daybreak has been fun so far. Really enjoyed the conversation between Van and Aaron during the hot springs scene.

All of Season 3 of Wheel of Time is available now, but Andor Season 2 also starts next week. Decisions, decisions.

In Daybreak, I was definitely not expecting Van's master to be the Dominion who passed on his Stigma to Gaius, as well as randomly running into the former president of Calvard.

Whew, had my son's third birthday party today (his actual birthday is Monday).

These things become exhausting once your kid is old enough to know what's happening...!

Daybreak Intermission chapter beated! Well, that was quite a lot to process at the end there, with Mare bodyjacking Yume, meeting the Ikaruga and another Garden dude, and finding out Creil got wiped off the map (presumably by a nuclear weapon?). Dingo was supposedly there, but he also managed to send Van a message, so we'll see where that goes. Gotta say, this game keeps getting wilder every chapter.

Wow, time flies

Still feels like it's only been a few years from the start of covid to me when it's actually been five
Congrats to azuarc , GotD2 Guru champ!
Yeah, no kidding. I got married during Covid, and so we're celebrating our fifth anniversary next month. Definitely doesn't feel like it was that long ago.

On Part 4 of Stormlight Archive Book 3:

Wait, is Szeth's sword the one from Warbreaker? And would that mean Azure is someone from Warbreaker, too? Vivenna would be the most likely option there. I wonder how they got involved in world hopping. It's cool to see them both again if so.

Andor Season 2 Episode 1 complete!

Opening scene was great! Man, I had forgotten how good the political intrigue in this show is.

Main story of Reverie completed! Now for the post game Corridor.

I can't believe they did it but they somehow turned the biggest pos in Cold Steel into a hero. That was excellent.

And while they had cool moments for Lloyd, like him figuring it out, being the glue for everyone, being the most normal person to fend off McBurn, I still think Rean is the one that came out on top. Lloyd's route felt pretty straightforward, while Rean got all the twists and more hype scenes.

Yeah, I think all three routes did good things for their protagonists, but Rean definitely came out on top for me at the end.

I thought Lloyd's route was fine but mostly whatever. Rean and C had excellent development in their stories though, yeah.

I'm still making my way through Daybreak. Very slowly. Basel is cool though
I didn't do guru this year but azuarc can be in my sig anyways.
Also I'm not sure what picking Rean's waifu at the start affected. There was just the scene at the end with Jusis telling "Rean" he should have brought her. But besides that?
Congrats to azuarc for winning GOTD2

And by the way the only correct options for Rean are still only Alisa, Emma, Towa and Alfin.

For Lloyd, I would lean Noel after this game lol.

During the final battle, the one you pick makes eye contact with you. I believe that's it. It's an absolutely garbage implementation and a real indictment of Falcom's decision to let you choose your romance and then give absolutely no scenes for it.

Lloyd route pretty clearly the worst in Reverie. Nothing very new or interesting there.
All the stars in the sky are waiting for you.
I feel like it changed some dialogue Rean had with Laura for me, but maybe not

There's actually one more thing it affects in a post-game Reverie Corridor sidestory but it's also minor.

Andor Season 2 Episode 2 complete!

This show does a really good job of showing what an uphill climb it was for the Rebellion. I'm also kinda wishing I had gotten a refresher on Season 1 because there's so much I don't totally remember.
