Spending a good chunk of my afternoon setting up the kids new console.

Apps for setting up, patches to download, games to download & register. All told this will end up being about 4 hours of my day, and I still don’t have my only game downloaded yet. Diablo four is 84Gb and unless I download that at night it is going to tie up my internet for a day. Not only that but this was supposed to keep the kids off of our data and on a console. Not so! Atleast as of today and all this set up. I’m loathe to order any other games as I can only imagine how large the install files are even with the disks. Ugh!

I did play Goat Simulator 3 for an hour while the Disney Valley game started to download so there is that. I had thought gaming beyond me once I stopped following along after replacing my Xbox 360 with a newer 360. I let the Xbox One flow over me, same with PS4. Didn’t think about the PS5 or Xbox Series X at all. Now here I am gearing it up for my kids. Funny how that works. I’ll have to call Roger’s and get unlimited internet sorted as the 200Gb plan we are on is seriously lacking with just how much stuff we do online these days.

And as no surprise to anyone I just spent the last 5.5 hours pissing about with the console to the detriment of everything else. Just like I knew I would. Hence letting gaming go several years back. It takes over! Gah!
