  • Got to say, Hyper Light Drifter, if you are into Zelda-like open world endtimes sword fighting.

    What I loved most about it how the style just fit the game so well. Especially the sound design. One part of the game is finding those hidden “computerchips” in the ground and you get hints on where they are by listening to them humming softly in a rhythm. Then pulling them out of the ground makes a real satisfying sound effect.

    The guns also mostly have really great sounds, shooting and reloading the laser sniper rifle felt awesome, but the best one is that tiny pistol you get beating this samurai boss.

    Sorry, don’t recall the right names of things anymore, hopefully it is clear what I mean.


















  • I think these are the important paragraphs to note, before this becomes the usual “eh, should have applied in time” topic

    Sellers was aware that Brexit might affect his right to stay in the country and, without any communication from government authorities, he considered his best option was to apply for Swedish citizenship.

    This he did in September 2021, before the Brexit deadline of 31 December that year.

    Not only was his citizenship rejected, but two subsequent attempts to remain in the country under family rights in national migration laws via his partner, now his wife, were also turned down.

    So by the time he applied he lived in Sweden already 8-9 years or so. He also likely had a job I assume, would be nice to know the grounds for rejecting his application. There are of course valid reasons to not grant it, but given how terrible of an organisation Migrationsverket is (yes, repeating myself a lot in these posts, I know), I would not immediately assume that the guy did this the wrong way.
