Hey everyone.

As of April 14th, I will be on my Sabbatical until July 7th. During that time, I will not be involved in any TFT work, and will not be communicating anything TFT related. I will be using the time to disconnect and spend some time on some personal projects.

You'll hear from me again at the end of the Sabbatical. Until then, take it easy.

@jfwong Nope. When I found out cheese tactics exist it kind of ruined it a bit for me, but I just like pushing myself on “fair” runs to see how far I can go.

Ok last Star Fox post I promise.

Played all the content and got to see all the cut scenes and everything. Honestly the game is still just as amazing as it’s ever been. If you haven’t enjoyed this masterpiece make sure you do.

But for me…the joy of this game was always learning the patterns and exploring the paths. Mastering and improving each run. I’ve already experienced that. So for me personally, it’s already run its course.

And that continues to be my issue as I get old. I can’t really enjoy remakes. I’m glad they exist for new audiences, and I truly think this game is amazing. I just don’t need to play it again more.

TLDR - I’m old and my hand kind of hurts now. Can’t slam lasers like I used to lol.

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

Still got it baby!

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

Oh it’s freaking time! I’m excited!

Will report back in a few hours.

Happy 7th birthday @TFT !

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

Ok, in honor of Star Fox release, I pulled out my old copy. Man, remember when games had instruction books. I’d just sit and read these when I wasn’t playing lol.

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

@i0ki_LoL Oh yes. I was a full medal clear on both difficulties to unlock on foot mode in multiplayer lol. I’m looking forward to diving in again

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

Ok for those who are already playing Star Fox (my copy comes tomorrow)...

Does the game retain the score exploits from the original?

I'm super curious as I used to love doing high score runs (without them) but always felt like they invalidated the game.

@5454TFT #4 is free....bro...

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

@TFTDecker Nope. Went into Vox blind.

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

Finished Legend of Vox Machina S4. This show has been a silly tropey joy to watch, with enjoyable character dynamics.

I enjoy shows like this. Not S-tier or anything, but still worthy of the time. Recommend if you like the D&D tropes.

@alus1a You can't. Damage is done forever. You have to make a new account. Your MMR is wrecked.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there. Thanks for bearing all the things you do.

@Mojopowell_HS Was ok. Basically a 3/3 body that got to connive a bunch of times (got him to a 6/6 at one point). Was close to activating the second part once, but never did.

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

Marvel Pre-release. I don’t love going 3 colors but we’ll see how it goes. Wish me luck!

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

@NessPKFlash I enjoy my Tiamat deck for flashy wins, and Cloud for more casual games

[Riot Mort @Mortdog]

Sabbatical has meant finally doing all the doctor/dentist/health stuff I neglected for years cause I was working too much lol.

To the shock of no one, I’ve relearned that I do not enjoy the dentist appointments 🫠
