January 9 - NowBought Pathologic 3 the second it released, but I got very busy and couldn't finish it until summer. I have no clue how a studio can continue writing a series for twenty years and still have the same if not better quality writing to this day
GDiablo II: Reign of the Warlock
February 16 - May 18The new class is very fun. It's honestly better than Diablo IV's Warlock. They're both good though. It was also fun to play the Diablo II campaign again
BThe Church
April 22 - May 24I've always known more of Jan Hus' political and revolutionary impact than his actual philosophy and criticisms on the Catholic Church, aside from its needless extravagance. He's a very snappy writer and it's a surprisingly digestible book
BThe Age of Revolution: 1789–1848
May 9 - May 26I wish I read this book years ago. I think it would help me appreciate the post-Napoleonic era as I do now. The book really covers an impossibly large amount of change in only a few hundred pages and gave me as much insight as a Parenti book
BLife of Prince Metternich
May 12 - May 25George Bruce Malleson is pretty good at organizing historical texts and the lives of people into neat groups. I quite liked all the quotes from Metternich put in better context, especially post-1815
BActs of Worship
May 19 - May 27Mishima's short stories are like glimpses into the rest of his works. I love how true his books feel and he speaks about his own secrets most people wouldn't dream of sharing
BA Game of Thrones
(Reread) May 19 - NowFeels like I'm reading it for the first time. Easy ten out of ten. I feel like the more I sit with this book the more I like and understand Ned. Top ten most misunderstood characters that aren't women
SSchitt's Creek
(Rewatch) May 1 - May 20The show is somehow even better than I remember. It was alway good, but there's a lot more subtlety in both the acting and dialogue that was harder to notice when I was younger. Season 5 features some of the best performances I've ever seen
GDiablo IV: Lord of Hatred
May 24 - May 26Lord of Hatred is like a not quite as good Reaper of Souls for Diablo IV. Took a quite disappointing game and made it pretty good and fixed a lot of its issues. It also brought Lilith back and returned her to her Sin War books level of writing
AGo For It, Nakamura!!
May 25 - NowFirst anime I've seen in like two years. The manga is very good, but the anime might actually be better. It completely redoes the pacing and chronology in a much more natural way, and its additions are well-made
BConfessions of a Mask
(Reread) May 25 - May 27It's a contender for my favorite book. There's really no other book that touches me as deeply as Confessions of a Mask. It's a book I think you need to actually be homosexual to get the most out of it, as it is a very personalized book
G007: First light
May 26 - June 3I got the early access since it's IO game. The game mechanics are a bit clunky and I do wish they went for a more Hitman approach to progression, rather than basically being Life is Strange with more gameplay
