Does anyone know of good Video Games, Movies & TV (Physical Media) & Board Game stores in Portland?

I’ve been going to TOTL Games for a while.
But I’m looking for more variety.

Come listen to another cozy Elder Scrolls reading~
This time, we have a series of interviews with the head of the Emperor's guards, recounting experiences from her storied life.

Succubard Gently Reads [[Words and Philosphy]](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXljjO9NH70)

This is another book that feels like it has much more story than lore, though for those of you with a keen ear and mind, you will probably be able to spot some key lines that have in them more lore than it may first appear. It's odd to think that, out of the relatively few stories in which a Bosmer features as a main character, I've done two back to back

Speaking of Bosmer, I envisaged Lady Allena Benoch as a mature, experienced woman and tried to express that in her voice. Hopefully, you like how she came out

Come listen to another cozy Elder Scrolls reading~
This story is of the lonely vigil of a soldier tasked with holding a keep by himself.

Succubard Gently Reads [[The Rear Guard]](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y10rOGO1jIE)

Compared to my usual lore-heavy books, this one is very much a story first and a source of lore second. It's also one of the first few stories I read on stream, back when I was still contemplating whether people would even like listening to me read, and it's since become a regular during streams

I hope you all find it just as charming as I do~

Come listen to another cozy Elder Scrolls reading~
This one is a short little story told from the perspective of a priestess of Dibella

Succubard Gently Reads [Dibella's Mysteries and Revelations]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoawUAZR6_U

It feels odd to have a story so true to what Dibella stands for yet also disconnected from the worldly affairs that are usually considered "lore". Even [Night Falls On Sentinel] wasn't quite this oblivious to wider events, but I think that's also part of its charm.

Welp, so apparently (at least the #Steam release of) #InfinityNikki currently only supports the #SteamDeck (the LCD model in particular?), and not #Linux as a whole, due to their ACE anti-cheat.

The same thing also applies to #WutheringWaves apparently which was also just released on Steam, 'cept for this one, it straight up does not work on Linux/Steam Deck at all (at least for now).

Being cockblocked by anti-cheat for online, competitive #games like #Fortnite, #Valorant, and the like - I don't care at all, but not being able to play popular, chill, free games like these simply bcos the developer/anti-cheat decides to not open up their game for Linux gamers... that sucks ass. Hope this gets addressed soon.

This time, we're headed off the topic of Oblivion and onto...oh, the effects of one of the Daedric princes of Oblivion on Tamrielic goings-on?

Succubard Gently Reads: [The Brothers of Darkness]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ta3DgLgY4A

Yup, it's the dark brotherhood, a group that stems from an earlier group who was born of a worship for Mephala The Dark Brotherhood quest-line is, as I hear it, a lot of people's favourites when it comes to The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, from the way it's introduced to how it plays out, and it's often used as a barometer to measure other quest-lines up against, both in Oblivion and in other TES games.

Hopefully, you enjoy getting a bit of a look into the history of the organisation~

This recording was honestly frustrating as hell to get recorded because of environmental factors leading to somewhere between 30+ discarded takes, but it was worth it, and I can't wait until tomorrow comes so I can work on the next one Thank you all for supporting me so far, and I hope you like the reading~

"Born from the WebAssembly ecosystem, this console accepts “cartridges” in .wasm format. Any language that compiles to WebAssembly—be it Rust, Go, or AssemblyScript—can build games for it. The console’s emphasis on portability, with plans for microcontroller support, positions it as a playground for minimalist game developers. Multiplayer support? Check. Retro vibes?
