Finished Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars bringing my backlog down to 39 games left. I have not made much progress, but when I'm playing games that require all my skills it's not that big of a surprise.

Apparently the game had an update that broke campaign which made playing Normal Difficulty as bad as Insane in some parts. Luckily, I have played a number of StarCraft 2 missions on Impossible giving me some level of ability.

Still, that was hard to the point I knocked it down to Easy just so I could get through.

Now, though, I am now in the territory feeling less like I have to play and more that I want to play. It only took about 4 years to slog through most of them.

Got to the Nether, spawned in an area that is, without fail like everything else in the game, a nightmare of navigation. I'm on an island of netherrack far above lava and the only way down is gravel stairs.

Try to make a new portal, links back to the first portal.

FFFFFFF why is Nether tether still a thing? Why are they linking like this still?

Two hours in and already have full diamond gear. Not sure I like how nerfed they become to be almost as valuable as gold.

I should probably fix my profile page

While I might not be the biggest fan of changes, I'll admit that it's getting me to be a little bit more creative

Taking a break from the backlogs and decided to play Modern Minecraft since fireflies are finally coming back.

Oh. Deer. God. What even is this game anymore? I dig for nearlyan hour to reach bedrock. I think there's just a bit too much now. So amy different colors of fencing and stairs and blocks and tools and trying to find even iron is a nightmare. Every island is like a mountain.

Send me back to Alpha!

Against my better judgement and need to clear the dozens of other games piling high, I've bought The Coin Game. I haven't felt absolute childish glee like reliving my childhood of coin pushers and skeeball.

I blame Drae.

Against my better judgement, I've bought a copy of Learning Python in the hopes of pursuing an old hobby.

It may be futile, but given how much effort I've put in the last year of finally finishing things that I have started and put down numerous times, I'm certain that I could go all the way.

Might not be the prettiest or most functional yet I will break through that brick wall. I mean, I finally dragged my behind through the Codecademy course and have a pretty good understanding of coding in general even if I might not completely understand.

Always chase and catch your dreams, no matter how big or small.

With the completion of my world, I get to do something that I've been waiting all this time for.

In much the same way that we used to use cheats such as Invincibility, unlimited ammo, and all weapons, this is akin to me having just a little fun and more than deserved treat of doing something that goes against the grain. While I would have loved to cover everything, unfortunately there isn't a Creative mode and all inventory edit mods are defunt.

What you see is pretty much my entire supply of TNT I've crafted by hand. Rougly a stack and a half. Could have farmed more, but I think this is more than enough.

Thank you, Notch, for so many wonderful years of entertainment. This isn't the end, only the beginning of the next chapter for me. Now that this is done, I can move on to other versions and other games.

Update post: IT WORKED!!!! I have no idea how, but dear god I'm happy that it does because my other option would have been to scour the entire map blindly looking for dungeons.

I've never been so excited in my life. Sure, I could have done this months ago yet I wanted to wear out my world a bit before doing something drastic. Given I'm just missing the green disk now, my museum will be complete in a few hours assuming that I can get the green disk to drop as well.
