March is birthday month for both me and Clover, and we get to celebrate it by washing our hands vigorously and wearing face masks while trying to blow out candles on a birthday cake? Joking aside, it’s been a good year so far (regardless of world events) and we’re happy to bring in yet another year of age.
Starting off with the real life stuff - it’s a good time to remind folks out there to appreciate what you already have and not what you want. I say that since I’ve been really digging a TV series as of late called Real Detective that is one of the best produced non fiction crime dramas I’ve seen for quite a while. I always try to look at the brighter side of things when it comes to life, and if I need to remind myself I’m not “one of those folks” going through what is portrayed on the show. Since a lot of folks are going to be indoors for a while, I highly recommend you take a look at the series if you need something to pass the time.
Moving onto game stuff I’m a little late to the party for the following 2 entries, but they are unique experiences none the less. The first one is Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout which is an older game from last year that I never got to experience for a couple of reasons. None the less I was happy to find out the PC port of the game (which is the superior one in my opinion) supports modding and of course high resolution textures and effects. An in-game screenshot of my own applied mods below hopefully will peak your interest in checking it out.
The next game recently came out on mobile but was actually out sometime ago on the PS4. It’s called Earth’s Dawn and was on sale on Fanatical (fantastic website for PC game deals) for $1. For that price, I naturally had to try it out and it wasn’t as bad as the reviews said it was back on the PS4. That being said, I wouldn’t pay more than $5 for it and that’s actually the every day price on the Nintendo Switch version. I hope the game’s developers in the future make a new game based on the foundations of Earth’s Dawn as there’s a lot of good ideas at the root of it. Below is an excellent review from AGR.
Moving onto anime stuff that Clover watches, this month we have a pretty funny and wacky anime called Murenase! Seton Gakuen. I won’t spoil the anime too much since you need to watch it to enjoy it, but let’s just say if you like animals, high school and poop jokes - it’ll be right up your alley.
That’s it for this month’s update. The next rare time Clover streams, wish her a happy birthday! Be generous with those Twitch bits and subs too - cause we need money to buy soap and napkins.
