So it has ended up being quite a while since I last wrote something here, yet it simultaneously feels like not that long ago; time can sometimes be strange like that. It’s a bit of a pity that I’ve written less lately, though I also don’t really know what I would have written in the intervening time; it doesn’t really feel like that much has happened, even though it has.
I guess a short recap might be somewhat useful, for my own sake if nothing else: I’ve ended up stopping playing World of Warcraft (for now, at least, though I’m not really feeling a return). I’ve kind of gotten into a cycle of rotating between mostly some Paradox games, namely Crusader Kings III, Stellaris, with a bit of Victoria 3 thrown it at times for good measure. I’ve continued my fascination with RPGs by replaying Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous a couple of times, as well as playing some Baldur’s Gate 3 (which is quite a nice game).
On the more personal front, it was quite interesting reading through some of the drafts I had saved here, it felt like they had ended up being unpublished mostly because they were too personal, which made them work sort of like a diary now that I revisited them. It also showed me that my mood hasn’t changed all that much; there has been some small improvement I do think, but the overall vibe seems to remain largely the same. I suppose some of that is merely part of my personality and how I react to things and less to do with my mood, really, but it was still interesting to read.
As for what the future holds, I still don’t really know. I think I would like writing here more often, but I’m not quite sure how to achieve that. On the one hand, I had the time when I was trying to just write something, anything, every week or so, and while that did end up working out quite well I also found it quite stressful. On the other hand, just writing when I feel like it doesn’t really seem to work either, since it seems I don’t really end up thinking about doing it all that often when I don’t put it as a priority and as such forget to write anything at all. There must be some middle ground between forcing myself and forgetting completely, but I haven’t found that yet.
