I was in school so when that was put on hold I essentially played video games like it was a job. I remember vividly playing Grand Theft Auto IV in one sitting for the Liberty City Minute achievement and I’m pretty sure I played through Master Chief Collection.
Do you look back on any aspects of it nostalgically?
Worked from home, luckily I have a large terrace and live in a very green and walkable neighborhood. There’s a botanical garden across the street that shut down for the public, but since I go there for a jog nearly every morning, the guards let me in regardless. Had the whole thing to myself.
Watched a ton of Netflix, perfected my bread baking skills, and grew a big beard.
That’s cool of the guards to do that. What was your favorite show to watch during the quarantine?
Taskmaster! Not on Netflix though, but definitely my favorite show. UK show where local comedians have to perform a series of tasks over a couple weeks and are then rated on stage based on their performance. Exceptionally silly and entertaining. There are a bunch of international adaptions as well now, I’ve binged all through UK, Norway, Sweden, Croatia, Portugal, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Unfortunately the US version is crap and got cancelled after one season. Some others I didn’t really get into, like Denmark or Finland, but I might give it another try later.
