Crofty's back, tell a friend.
Or I guess I've kind of been back for a while. Went to Sweden's biggest convention (aka NärCon) for four days in July which was super fun! Meeting friends is always fun, and considering that most of my close friends are cosplayers, attending events like these always make me happy. I didn't get too many photos as I didn't cosplay as much as I usually do at cons (I was working as an assistant for the photographer of the Nordic Cosplay Championship), but links to some are further down in this post!
Then I went on vacation - spent three weeks in the Philippines. Warm as hell, as usual, but fun. After that, I was busy with the intro weeks for the new students at my university (I helped out and it was so much fun, but damn was I exhausted). Then, there's obviously studying to deal with... and Overwatch. An awful lot of Overwatch.
I will actually stream some drunk or at least tipsy Overwatch in a little while over at my Twitch channel so feel free to stop by! I stream occasionally from time to time so if you're interested in watching, follow me like a crazy stalker (but please not literally)
Oh, and have some cosplay selfies from NärCon. Those are always fun.
I hope you've all had a lovely summer! <3

Awesome! Here's a general question. Where do you go to get your material? I would assume a 3D printer does wonders for armor (been wanting to make Mass Effect armor :P) but other than that...I would imagine some sort of fabric store or something? And for an unrelated cosplay question, what games do you often play?

So, there's not much to compare between our main choices within the episode, but I guess we can still compare the smaller choices.
Did you get your portrait drawn? Did you water the plant? Did you check out the dad's files? Did you break the snow-globe? Did you rearrange the photos in Victoria's room?
Obviously these are the truly hard-hitting questions.

If the probably turns out to be false, I'm going to be shocked. If it's something like Lara was actually inside of a dream and could rewind time to avoid the impending storm the whole time, I'll be amazed.

Man, you seem so.... surprised by his death. Sorry that that I had to break it to you this way.
Wait, so you're telling me... after I've seen and killed all of those men.... that there's people on this island? Mind. Blown.
Also, why are there seemingly no women on this island other than the three that just came on this ship?
My concern is within stuff like the hidden tombs and stuff that require major amounts of platforming and stuff being destroyed to get there, such as the destroyed plane in the first hidden tomb. How the hell did those people get there to light those damn candles!

Oh my god. "I know this island is haunted or something" made me laugh. And that's weird, that never happened to me..! I actually never got any significant glitches while playing it. Huh.
But you know that people live on the island, right? I would say that they creep around in the ancient tombs as well, but leave things untouched, trying not to anger the gods and all that jazz.

Speaking of deaths of favorite characters, Roth just died one me. Damnit Roth!
So far I've only had two problems with it.
1: I've glitched out of the world and fallen through the floor like 5 times already. I know this island is haunted or something, but still, this is way too strange.
2: WHO THE FUCK IS LIGHTING ALL THESE CANDLES AROUND THE ISLAND. EVEN IN ANCIENT TOMBS WHICH HAVEN'T BEEN VISITED IN THOUSANDS OF YEARS, THERE'S LIT CANDLES FOR LIGHT.

It's such a good way of thinking!
She was genuinely nice, but then had to send that "oh btw we're still not friends" text to keep her bitchy persona up. Sucks that she's so insecure.
Yeah, I thought it'd be best to start with the newest one. I'm about 8 hours in, right at the point where you get the grenade launcher in the burning city.

Every single one of those things. Even seeing that it was a middle finger and then rewinding it. I couldn't bring myself to be mean to her.

I got my portrait drawn (I like Daniel and he's hella good at drawing so why not), I watered the plant (very important), I checked out the files (but I didn't leave any traces), I didn't break the snowglobe (I didn't feel like there was a reason to leave it broken so I rewinded), and I only rearranged Victorias photos to get the picture of it; I rewinded afterwards.
