  • The cabin scene happens in the Paths same as the Armin meeting. It’s Eren and Mikasa “dreaming” of the life they weren’t able to have together. Similar to Eren and Armin visiting the far away places they had dreamed of when reading Armin’s book together.

    The cabin scene would’ve happened in a timeline where Mikasa had confessed her feelings to Eren when they were in Marley together. When Mikasa calls him family. If Mikasa had confessed her feelings instead, Eren would’ve left everything behind to go and live in peace for the last four years Eren had left before his Titan timer ran out. Of course as a result, in that hypothetical timeline, Eren doesn’t go forward with the rumbling and he therefore gives up his ability to guarantee his friends’ safety.

    The thing is, there is no alternate timeline in AOT. The future Eren saw when kissing Historia’s hand was the only timeline that would happen. Mikasa wouldn’t confess her feelings, Armin and Eren wouldn’t be able to look at the wonders of the world together, and Eren would always follow through with the Rumbling, dooming himself while saving his friends in the process.







  • I did have some connection issues maybe ~7-10 days ago (would fall under the article’s time frame). I’d have to unplug/replug my phone to get it to work. I didn’t think much since I’ve had the problem in the past that ended up being a bad cable. Haven’t had to do that in about 3-4 days now though so can’t really conclude anything.

    On a related note though, Android Auto and Mazda’s rotary dial don’t always work the best. Waze is hit or miss with the controls which is a damn shame. AA itself is a bit cumbersome to navigate. Just one of those I have to get used to I guess.


  • Just finished up Assassin’s Creed 2 - my all-time favorite game but first time playing since I had my Xbox 360. I remembered the free-running/parkour being a bit finicky but this time around it was just infuriating. Also had a hard time with some of the controls being bound correctly (navigating the map being the worst offender). I still recommend the game because the campaign, the modern day story, and the historical conspiracies sub-plot are just too good IMO. I just also found a good chunk of my time spent yelling at Ezio to jump where I wanted him to go.

    Started up Dinkum for some casual play - just have an hour or so played but seems to be good so far. Not sure how much I’ll play of it - I get kind of bored with this style of game. Looking for some pointers with getting started. (Same thing happened with Stardew Valley for me)

    Spyro Reignited has been really fun to pickup for quick play sessions. I do get more stutters than I’d expect on the Deck when loading levels. Think my graphics are all set to medium so prob need to tinker to get those smoothed out. Definitely recommend this game though.
