I hope you all have a wonderful day, full of food, family, and love!

God bless those working today.  

God forgive the CEOs making retail workers work today.  

Because I don’t want to.

If I had to sum up Sonic Forces in a word, it'd be... disappointing.

It's not a bad game, but it's not a great game either.  The levels feel short, the character creation feels like it's missing some options (bears should not be that skinny), and the writing is cringy at times.  Props to them for making Eggman threatening this time, at least...

But I feel there's a lot of missed opportunities and bad decisions in this game.  Classic Sonic's presence in this game feels very unnecessary.  And I know this is just my nostalgia talking, but this would have been a perfect game to introduce the Freedom Fighters into.

And then there's the 'Eggman Empire.'  

So much hype, and the conquest happened offscreen.  And then there's the legion of baddies... who all turned out to be clones.  And you don't even get to fight Chaos and Shadow.  They get taken out in cutscenes.  And Zavok just rode a bee.  Wasted, wasted potential...

*sighs* So yeah.  Sonic Forces.  A nice try, but a bad case of close but no cigar.

My monitor has wavy lines over it now.  I can still see everything easily and performance isn't affected, but it's disconcerting.  I've tried resetting a few times, and all my connections are tightly in.  Neither my monitor or my computer itself are running hot.  It just started this afternoon.  I took a nap after church, leaving the computer on, and it was like this when I came down.  Neither the computer nor the monitor are that old.  The computer runs Win10.

Any tips?  Advice?
