My SO has been playing this game called Dave the Diver, and it is truly a wild and weird game. You're a fat diver who loves sushi, you dive into a magical blue hole to collect fish during the day, and you work the bar at the sushi joint at night, you have a cell phone with games on it, you can play (yo dog I heard you liked games.meme), there is some weird stuff going on in the big blue hole, the weapon’s smith is a fat sweaty weeb. I plaid it a bit and It's pretty fun.
The new Hearthstone Battlegrounds patch has been live for about a week. Trinkets are back, which is OK, I think I like Anomalies more, but oh well. Plenty of shakeups in the various minion types. There is this new focus on scaling things that give stats. So you can scale Tavern Spells that normally give stats. Elementals, I think is the most interesting tribe, you scale the element's that give stats. So things like Party Elemental, which gives +1/+1 to a random Elemental you control, can be buffed so it gives more stats per trigger. Many minions that give specific spells as either a deathrattle or a battle cry. Most deathrattle minions also have battlecry now if they give a card, which, I think, is a good change. Mechs might be my second favorite thus far. Not many sweeping changes to the tribe over all, but there is a focus on end of turn effects that I like. The mech that magnetizes a random mech is pretty good. The magnetize mech that gives your other mechs +1 attack at the end of the turn is nice.
