rosa_heartlily It was an absolutely beautiful day, today, and we had a really lovely meal at Zorba's. The owners' granddaughter was having a party at the back, so service was a bit slow - but also, I think spending 2+ hours over a meal is what they'd consider normal :D Grandson #1 took the day off work to grace us with his presence and grandson #2 ate everything within reach <3 Oh, and had great fun dropping his dummy for grandson #1 to pick up >D
While the boys watched the football, I played the demo for One Piece: Odyssey, which I found a bit weird. I'm guessing it dropped me in the middle of the game because everyone was at level 40 and had lots of skills. It did explain how to use the skills, and the tactics around which character to use for attack, but I struggled a bit to connect the dots. I preferred FFXVI's approach where you play the first couple of hours of the game and learn how to play naturally, then you got a bonus section with some extra abilities. Anyway, I won't be buying OPO, mostly because I didn't like the visuals.
I've downloaded the demo for Stella Blade, so I'll give that a go tomorrow.
Rather than play anything tonight, I decided to watch something off my Tivo and went with The Father. Olivia Colman plays a woman whose father, played by Anthony Hopkins, is suffering from (I guess) dementia. He forgets things and people, and sometimes it was hard to know what was real - but I think that's part of the experience for people with dementia, isn't it? A small but brilliant cast - as well as the main actors it had Rufus Sewell, Mark Gatiss, Olivia Williams and Imogen Poots.
I'm planning a not-doing-much day tomorrow, with perhaps some gardening.
But now it's time to get ready for bed.
