232 - Games For Gamers. (Patreon)

Hello bros. Welcome to Monday Post 232. 

The work. This week I was able to follow the plan (for the most part). I finished writing Skinny Lily's story and got back to working on art assets. Finished drawing and inking pretty much everything I needed. This week I shall be spent on coloring all the drawings, adding additional facial expressions and so on. I estimate entire week will be spent solely on that. But we will see, maybe I will be able to wrap things up a bit quicker :)

The stuff. Few days ago I found out that I lost my PS VITA's charger while moving (several months ago). I ordered new one online and on Wednesday went to the local mall to pick it up. It takes a while to get there, and since I was there anyway I decided to shop for new shorts and t-shirts and ended up wasting entire day. So I had one day less for work last week. But real life needs our attention every now and then, no way around it.

My PSP is 10+ years old by now, but it still works perfectly fine apart from a completely busted analog stick. Last week I booted it up and deicide to login to PSN, only to find out that PSP PSN has been shut down long time ago. That gave me a pause since I "own" quite a few digital games on that system. I decided to login to PSN online (via PC), hoping I will be able to download some of my games that way. But PSN on PC only has to tabs: PS4 and PS5.

To sum it up, digital purchases of anything ever is lie. If you want to truly own anything, you need to go physical or realize that you are not actually buying digital games but renting them instead. Also this made it obvious to me that I need to jailbrake my PSP if I want to play all the games I paid for. (But first I need to replace the busted controller stick.)

My PSVITA is ready to be broken out of jail. Now I just need to find the time to read all the tutorial and such. In the meantime I tried to log in to PSN only to find out that the system had changed and now I need to use a QR code to go online, create "device setup password" and only after that my original password would work. This new "feature" pissed me off a bit, but I decided to be an adult about it and do as the message said.

Long story short, I spent some time tinkering with SONY website on my PC, did what it said but the password still refused to work. I can login to PSN on PC just fine, but creating "device setup password" just doesn't work for some reason. I mean the system creates the password, but my VITA still shows the same message after I enter it.  And no, this is not in any way related to my location and the current state of the world, it is only related to SONY being an evil corporation that deserves now support from real gamers anymore. I can't wait to hack my PSVITA and play PSOne, PSP and VITA games. The games from back in the day, when the grass was greener.

And that is about it. EXTRA post will contain a few more pics and a video of me inking some stuff. Thank you for your support, bros. I'll see you all next week.
