Gaming-centric account. My primary, "real world" account is linked below.
I'm into #steam gaming on my #steamdeck and my #ubuntu #linux home computer. I like many different types of games including #fps, #openworld survival #grandstrategy and #metroidvania games. I also enjoy playing #boardgames with others, especially #strategy games like #Scythe
Currently playing #TheLongDark survival mode and making regular recap posts from my gaming sessions

Today in #TheLongDark I processed a lot of the moose meat from yesterday's hunt (until I ran out of firewood).
Afterwards I decided to do some exploring, and headed over to the whale processing facility across the bay from the lighthouse. I found a lot of goodies at the facility (e.g. a revolver from an unfortunate soul), and curiously a transmitter that needed some repairs...
A blizzard came while I was exploring the interior, so I guess I'll hold up here for the night.
Today in #TheLongDark, I did a bit of exploring in the Desolation Point area (found a truck and a waterfall), and more importantly...killed a moose!
I noticed it wandering around on an island near the lighthouse and decided to try to take it out with my trusty rifle.
I walked around to the other side of the island to sneak up on it and worked out a system where I'd run around the side of the island, pop off a shot and hide while it bolted around. Only took 5 shots :)
Today in #TheLongDark I headed over to the Riken, which is a wrecked ship stuck in the ice of Desolation Point. I got over to her without issue, and remembered to bring a lantern with me so I could see better inside. I found a few useful items like a crowbar, but the star of the show was the forge deep in the hull. Its used to create arrowheads from scrap metal, but only if you can get it hot enough, and IF you have a heavy hammer. Alas, I didn't have a hammer...
Today in #TheLongDark I decided to explore the terrain near the lighthouse in Desolation Point. I sprained my ankle while going down a rather steep hill to get down to the coast. Luckily, a bandage and some rosehip tea made everything ok again.
I ran into a wolf that had started eating a rabbit on my way to the nearby church. I scared it away with a flare and was able to claim the catch. I did the same thing again later after it attacked a deer. Saved me some effort!

Today in #TheLongDark, I made my way to Desolation Point through the cave at the edge of the Crumbling Highway.
Before I left, the aurora happened while I was sleeping in a basement, which resulted in a cool lighting effect.
During my journey I almost ran into a wolf, but I decided to take another route to avoid it. I made it all the way to the light house and decided to rest there for the night. Next time I'll plan on starting to explore the rest of the area.
Today in #TheLongDark, I decided to head to Desolation Point, but before I got there, I had to pass through the Crumbling Highway. In the area, I found 2 dead deer and was attacked by a wolf.
Luckily, I managed to kill the wolf with a single rifle shot. I also found a bunch of ruined homes, a couple caves and basement. I consolidated all the gear I found in the basement, and am planning to process the meat tomorrow.
Today in #TheLongDark I had a rather uneventful session, cooking some meat from a wolf I had killed previously, and hauling skins/guts back to my main store house in the Coastal Highway. I did run across a deer carcass, which was probably the one I shot with an arrow a while back. I guess I'll have more meat to cook for next time :)
