Welcome to another week of God Rolls where come to think of it, I haven’t actually been farming for any particular literal god rolls lately. I’ve sort of given up on the Outlaw/Headstone Vulpecula as I have gotten like 80 and still cannot manage one. Oh well.
What I’m Playing: Not much Destiny, now that the story segment wrapped, but next week is Festival of the Lost so there will be at least some moderate amount of content there. I did about 10 hours of Far Cry 6 before stopping. My main focus is New World.
What I’m Watching: I should probably rewatch Squid Game because I’m literally covering it like every day. Besides that, some horror movies like There’s Someone Inside Your House (bad) and Hell Fest (good).
Now, onto the summary!
