  • After playing San Andreas, I picked up Sleeping Dogs, and what a banger of a game it is.

    The Yakuza games have the reputation of being “GTA but East Asian” and while it’s misleading there, it definitely fits for this game. The story is short (took me 20 hours) and good, but not short to the point of being unsatisfying (like Mafia 2), the gameplay and especially the combat are really fun.

    The setting was an utter bullseye and I wish more games were set in contemporary China or Hong Kong, plus the soundtrack was pretty decent.

    Overall, I’m very glad I played it even if I hadn’t gotten it for 3 € during the steam sale. Unfortunately, the sequel will probably never happen, and gaming has changed enough that I wouldn’t really trust it to be any good anyway.















  • Ever since the Ceuta events, my father has just been GLUED to Tik-Tok, where he consumes far-right propaganda in Polish every minute he’s awake, including letting it run in the background while he’s watching something else. Tik-Tok and the far-right TV Republika (explicitly modeled after FOX News). It’s constant slop about how evil and corrupt the current government is, how foolish woke people are (you should laugh at them, because they know nothing and say wild stuff) and also constant barrages of anti-Ukrainian stuff about freeloaders that rob the state treasury that should go to real poles and how the war is fake, actually.

    He’s also scared of cities now, because of the “illegals” (a word that was never used by him before he got hooked, even in his racist moments) that have ensured that there are “almost no white people” in cities now.
