The Longing-ist Playthrough: Day 19 – 19/01/22 – 351 Days, 15 Hours, 46 Minutes and 20 Seconds to go…
My time beneath the mountain was limited to a short stint on my lunch break on Day 19, so I was reluctant to do anything that I might get to enthralled in. I wasn’t looking to push anything along because it would be just my luck that something interesting would happen and I’d be stuck…

The Longing-ist Playthrough: Day 18 – 18/01/22 – 351 Days, 16 Hours, 26 Minutes and 19 Seconds to go…
After a rather uneventful Day 17, I sadly didn’t have much time to make Day 18 particularly fruitful either, though I did have an interesting thought that I put into motion. I had only the briefest of times to spend with Monty yesterday, so rather than try to cram anything especially exciting in, I used…

The Longing-ist Playthrough: Day 17 – 17/01/22 – 353 Days, 4 Hours, 39 Minutes and 26 Seconds to go…
Day 17 was a quiet day, relative to some of the exciting discoveries of Days 15 and 16, but I have no doubt that more intriguing times are just on the horizon. It might be the first day since I started playing The Longing when I can honestly say that I have really very little…

The Longing-ist Playthrough: Day 16 – 16/01/22 – 360 Days, 1 Hour, 1 Minute and 33 Seconds to go…
While I had an accidentally extended session with Monty yesterday, it was today when I arguably made more progress, with an awful lot going on in just a short time. While I was keen to do more digging at home, I also wanted to start patrolling the wider kingdom in search of one more piece…

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Not content with blowing the roof off the internet by announcing a remake of one of the most beloved Star Wars games of all time, Jedi aficionados Aspyr followed up that news by releasing a port of the original Knights of the Old Republic on Nintendo Switch as well! As a game Iād heard so…

The Longing-ist Playthrough: Day 15 – 15/01/22 – 361 Days, 15 Hours, 30 Minutes and 22 Seconds to go…
It’s starting to become clear that the ‘short sessions’ with Monty are actually becoming the norm, and that I need to be content with what time I can spend on The Longing between work, family commitments and reviews. Day 15 was a pretty comfortable one, with Monty spending most of his time at home, aside…

The Longing-ist Playthrough: Day 14 – 14/01/22 – 368 Days, 16 Hours, 36 Minutes and 16 Seconds to go…
Friday is always a bit of a whirlwind of a day, so I didn’t get a huge amount of time with Monty again, as seems to be becoming the habit lately š . That said, it was a short but incredibly sweet play session, especially in comparison to some of the sour notes left by experiences…

The Longing-ist Playthrough: Day 13 – 13/01/22 – 369 Days, 16 Hours, 29 Minutes and 57 Seconds to go…
“When will my longing end?” Monty From Monty’s opening words, I guessed that he hadn’t enjoyed his evening digging in the [mushroom mines] š . But that was an attitude for yesterday – Day 12 is in the rear view mirror and Day 13 was in front of us. After a frankly rubbish day yesterday, I…

The Longing-ist Playthrough: Day 12 – 12/01/22 – 370 Days, 18 Hours, 57 Minutes and 42 Seconds to go…
What a roller coaster of a emotion Day 12 turned out to be! š The highs peaked immediately and then lows kept on coming, and while it was a little disappointing, we did manage a bit of a longer session than the past few evenings, which was nice. I picked up my Switch, closed down…
