As we're getting to the end of 2025... does anyone have eyes on what will be the new Tunic/Blue Prince/Animal Well of 2026?

When Mum doesn't let me in her office because she's "helping people" and "making the world a better place" so instead I have to listen to Dad email/meeting all day

Last year I enjoyed learning about the ways fashion is different for body types and intention, this year I challenged @amariebythesea.bsky.social, MatPat, and @estefannie.bsky.social to disect some Video Game looks for why they worked (or didn't) www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEWo...

The new #DigimonStory game is absolutely peak. Combat is incredibly deep, plenty of systems to invest in, and the story is a healthy mix of Tamers and Savers. Took me 55 hours and I've still got about a dozen side quests to complete and Outer Dungeons to find @bandainamcousa.bsky.social

I had a fascinating conversation with the cast of @criticalrole.bsky.social about the skosh they've played of Campaign 4, table dynamics, and fan shipping. Check out the full interview! #CriticalRole #Critters #DnD #Araman

*reads book* The party will head through a trash dump and through a dragon skeleton to escape > Oh cool, I can build that *Sitting down to play* "Why don't we void warp everyone 100 feet away a turn at a time and just run" > I guess I'm rebuilding the encounter

Hot off the heels of the Campaign 4 release date announcement and DM switch up Critical Role has teased the setting of Campaign 4 with an ARG

This is actually a kinda interesting idea. Have up your favorite commentator and the official stream, sync up the timer, and it's like picking audio commentary. Also means both streams get the view. I see the vision here

Good Saturday for me Not at much for my players...

Got the most insane fortune in my cookie last night, never seen something like this and I fucking lost it laughing

The Critical Role Direct not only revealed the release date of Campaign 4, but that Brennan Lee Mulligan will be taking over as GM

Was truly wild to see this #CriticalRole news come across my desk - October 2nd release date - @matthewmercer.bsky.social as a player with returning... and new faces - @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social as the DM for the WHOLE CAMPAIGN No confirmed system yet.. #Critters techraptor.net/tabletop/new...

I had a really fun (and tense) time playing #DeadTake from @surgentstudios.bsky.social Some messages I'm definitely going to keep thinking about for a long time coming

What a heartwarming #Gamechanger episode I'm laughing so hard that the tired Italian man's name is Manny Petty

I can't wait for #TheMightyNein to be animated, so many great moments

I got to hear from @abubakarsalim.bsky.social about #DeadTake from @surgentstudios.bsky.social How you'll interact with the world, the importance of the actors in the story, and why it was important to tell this story as a game Dead Take is out on the 31st!

Was a fantastic morning of purchasing kale a $1 per stalk and then proceeding to creep after capybara to pay tithe

On my 4th attempt over 3 weeks I got the yeast to work properly and crushed this foccacia-ey pizza recipe So fucking delicious!

My God the DS/3DS is such an incredible system, even now I'm finding more good stuff I need to go back and play Just can't replicate that dual screen image goodness

youtu.be/TWpg1RmzAbc?... Really important video to show your loved ones who are tech savvy or not AI is absolutely destroying every platform, and while it's mostly useless it's also being used to weaponize people. Gotta stay informed and safe!

The addition of Mr Beholder Head brings my collection of Minis to 600! Why yes I _do_ keep a database of them all #dnd5e #Minis

Day off which means morning dog park, Critical Role and Mario Kart, and I'm finally going to succeed at cooking with yeast! (Hopefully... It didn't work yesterday...)

I had an incredible time checking out Digimon Story: Time Stranger. Combat is pretty consistent, but the overworld is filled with life, so many QoL enhancements, and I'm so excited to learn about the full roster. #Digimon

I'm the last person who will say you need to have played all games in a series to be 'eligible' to review But I do think if you're coming in totally fresh there is some level of research that should be done, otherwise there's the potential that your words just won't make sense..

This anthology is going to be great for hiatus or introducing new players I do gotta ask though... Where are the gem dragons? #DnD #DragonDelves

Mikey is in Tony Hawk Leo is in Nicktoons and the Dice of Destiny Donnie will be announced as Mr Turtleman in Death Stranding 2 And Raph will be in Borderlands 4

Ahead of the realease of #CrookedMoon check out the spreads for the Stoneborn, a species of gargoyle people, and the doll-like Threadborn. That Threadborn "You've got a friend" ability sounds great for those support players @avantris.bsky.social have something really cool here!

Brb preparing a 1 shot where low level players need to take out the beholder after having hidden all of his eyes. DM needs to hunt the battlefield for where they're hidden to reclaim a beam at a time Thank you @dndbeyond.com for sending this beautiful abomination #DnD #Miniature

While there was plenty to write about from #SGF there was even more that I got to play. I wanted to run through a list of the indie games I covered here techraptor.net/gaming/featu... To make sure more people see them! 🧵

I had an incredible time checking out @ndreams.bsky.social new title #Reach. It's got movement that I'm still thinking about.... After playing I spoke with the team and @yosp-jp.bsky.social about Reach, developing for VR, and Indie game discoverability #SummerGameFest

While I'm still waiting to hear just how protective the AI regulations might be.... It's been so exciting seeing so many VOs on my feed getting to show off all the cool games they've been part of!

At SGF we got invited to check out pre-recorded gameplay of Grace waking up and exploring a terrifying house of dark hallways and things that go bump

After watching Gladiator II last night, and The Last of Us today I'm getting pretty tired of seeing senseless death Now back to my blind watch of Game of Thrones, I'm at S4E8 Pls don't spoil for me

I had the pleasure of talking to @samriegel.bsky.social about @criticalrole.bsky.social #WildmountWildlings We spoke about how much has gone into fleshing out the camp, sourcing monster & NPC ideas from his children, and whether we might see Beau and Yasha looking to adopt 👀 #Critters #MightyNein

Man, being able to share your digital games sounds like such a cool thing to do, it's wild that no one has thought of this before.

The core gameplay of #ACShadows is great But with a story that overstays it's welcome and an open world that's a hassle to traverse the game spends too long tripping over itself it's hard to enjoy the experience the whole way through The opening 10-15 hours gives Blue Eye Samurai in spades

Ahead of @heroforgeminis.bsky.social new Custom Dice Kickstarter we were lucky enough to be sent an interesting froggy character and a dice set to match I absolutely love what they're going for here, and the possibilities are nearly endless

Ahead of @criticalrole.bsky.social new book, Vox Machina: Stories Untold, with @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social we got an exclusive excerpt from 'Take this Down' by Jess Barber #Critters #VoxMachina #StoriesUntold

They gave my boy a Sora outfit! Hell yeah #InfinityNikki #KingdomHearts

Dude has a full leg of anime tattoos including Vegeta and a Naruto seal and he says 'I don't watch cartoons anymore' Fucking WHAT??!? #LoveIsBlind

We got into a discussion in the @techraptor.net slack about where poliwhirl's mouth would be After some truly horrific suggestions this was the one I posed Thoughts?

I reviewed #Avowed! @obsidianent.bsky.social and @xbox.com once again deliver an incredibly rich role-playing experience with great characters, meaningful choices, slick combat, and more. Check out my review — I’m proud of this one. techraptor.net/gaming/revie...

I can't believe I get to come away from a 8.5hr #CriticalRole finale, and immediately get to look forward to a Brennan EXU miniseries CR fans living it good

This PSN outage really highlights how people need to correctly set their home console or sync their external disc drive when they get it (like we knew was needed...)

Burnie re-purchasing rooster teeth has really brought such an incredible sense of happiness to me this morning Maybe it's time to go back and rewatch some hits

Players managed to push disadvantage on me as Black Puddings were attacking the party... And then I rolled this

My heart goes out to The Boys writing room who keeps trying to have the villain do something comically villainous only for US cultists to top it in real life

Timeline cleanse "Nickit... Pose Good Nickit"

Please remember: everything hurts way more when we're tired. 💛
