For the people who know me well, I am not a gamer. I suck at it. A potato gamer to the core. But after seeing some streamers play the game, and finding out that it is free to download, I went ahead, jumped the gun, and downloaded the game.

Yes, Honkai: Star Rail. After a very stressful and panic-induced morning, I wanted to escape my brain. And then I realized I have been playing the game for six hours. I was engaged with the game. Which was nice. And yes, I read everything and just let them talk. No skipping here. I do not skip dialogues.

Anyway, it was fun. I personally liked the turn-based combat system. I appreciated the fact that you can actually exploit the opponent’s weaknesses while in combat. The graphics were great. The music was pretty awesome. And the characters were interesting. I named my character “Pogi”. Because he was pogi.

I had to force myself to stop playing because I had to feed the dogs and actually had to prepare my food as well. Because if I did not do that, I would be gaming non-stop. So now what? I could go back to playing the game. But I think I want to read now. My eyes have been glued to the screen for practically the whole day. They needed the rest.
