First time I'm playing JEdi Survivor after enjoying Fallen Order quite a bit. One thing I genuinely don't understand is why these games feel so jank like they're held together by duct tape. It's largely running at a smooth 60 for me after capping it and it still feels like it's choking and gasping

Pandorum. My answer to this is always Pandorum

God I know people find this site slightly annoying or whatever but this is the pinnacle of social media to me. This whole feed is running on someone's CPU serving thousands of users in a decentralised manner. Absolutely lovely. Thank you space cowboy

1. Landed myself a much more stable job than I'd had 2. This new job requires leading a team in a greenfield project that required a fair bit of selling within the company 3. Read a bunch of excellent stories that I'll never forget in my life 4. Ran my first 10k 5. Started therapy for anxiety

Played The Silver Case. Really liked the aesthetics and style but the narrative was a mess and a severe let down as was the brief smattering of "gameplay". Very rough product of the times and very weird but still captivating because of how stylish it is

Thinking about the show Dark... what a masterpiece

Made the mistake of going to /r/television and finding out they are a bunch of absolute morons who praise Slow Horses and think nothing happened in Pluribus. Bunch of twat waffles if you ask me. No taste at all. Washed

I would love more seasons but S1 of Pluribus was perfect. No notes. This show could end here and I'd be incredibly happy.

Finished The Séance of Blake Manor. Pretty good open world adventure mystery thriller that's pulling some inspirations from Obra Dinn and Paradise Killer in terms of sleuthing. Steeped in Irish folklore and myth with a huge cast of reasonably compelling characters that nails the ending

Nothing cures a cold and headache quite like an entire playlist of a season of Taskmaster

RLM putting out a video titled "AI Slop" explicitly saying AI should stay out of entertainment and the Larian morons getting ridiculous amounts of pushback for not having a PR team or sense... the world is slowly righting itself methinks

Finished Indika. An absurdist black comedy game with some light puzzle elements that's mostly about the conflict of a girl and her struggles with herself. Very cinematic, very compelling, very short. The light puzzle elements sometimes got in the way of the story which was a shame

Watched One Battle After Another. A deeply personal film wrapped in a very unique setting oozing with black comedy. Gorgeously shot

GREAT movie. Lot of really good emotional scenes revolving around faith. I think the formula has been firmly established with Benoit Blanc acting as the side character to a well rounded and incredible cast with the mystery as a rider for social commentary and musings on the human condition

I'm going to stop holding back. Every episode of Pluribus is a fucking TREAT. I love this show

Clair Obscur: Expedition Good Boy

Looking forward to 8 hours later when I get to watch the Game Awards (cause of work) and finding out what people were mad/elated about 8 hours ago

Now that we're on the new site I might as well repost all the rat Erikas I made last year.

Finished Ghost Trick. Not perfect but still a really fun puzzle adventure. Story has some cool moments and the ending was great even if it's quite a bit messy. Such a gorgeous game though. Love the art style. Music is superb too

here’s a simulation of being in my head right now if you’re curious. living with anxiety rocks

At first you're like, why does this have a wiki page Then you find out it might be the best wiki page ever

The people who wrote this study are, at best, fully incompetent! "Since the large-scale adoption of AI tools began with ChatGPT, we argue that, with high probability, articles published before the release of ChatGPT were written by humans" Hahahaha.

I really like Pluribus. Made the mistake of going to the Pluribus sub. I don't understand why I don't learn this lesson. Never interact with fandoms

No joke, as someone who's unironically enjoyed it up till before the last released episode, the shit going on with skibidi toilet is not looking good. The last episode was a bit of a meandering mess and I have no motivation to start the spinoff/sequel/whatever

People are sleeping on Dogsred, the next manga by the author of the superb Golden Kamuy

Normally I can't be arsed to think too hard about GOTY awards but this is OBJECTIVELY the right choice this year

I don't know if I became more sensitive with age but I feel twitter and reddit are becoming more overwhelming than ever. People behave more stupidly, are generally more angry, and are so much more susceptible to rank nonsense than ever. I think I should just disconnect

I'm sorry but he's objectively correct and it's insane that people are mad at him. I saw it after Andor and the gap in quality is nuts. It barely has a plot for heaven's sake. Even Tony Gilroy said that he had to salvage it and couldn't do much. It makes me respect Andor more

The fuck is going on in America bro what an unserious country

Visited twitter briefly and apparently for some reason Arcane is going through a renaissance where a bunch of people are talking about how it's terrible and its politics are shit and the fans also apparently suck? Feels like a revaluation was in order now that it's been some time

Even if Pluribus turns out to be a massive disappointment towards the end, these first 4 episodes have cemented it as one of the greatest things in television ever for me. If it sticks the landing this will be an all timer but at the very very least I can rewatch this and be happy

Watching Pluribus and I'm still thinking back to how hard Severance dropped the ball with S2. An entire episode dedicated to a character going through it because she didn't get credit for inventing the Torment Nexus. I know it's saying more but that shit didn't need AN ENTIRE HOUR

I don't remember the last time a show has left me so confused yet enthralled as Pluribus has right now. It's not a mystery box show so I'm not wary of it like I am of Severance which disappointed me with its weak S2. This is just a fantastic character study in an incredibly unique world

I'm not sure why I'm subjecting myself to more Slow Horses after how much the last season stank which was after 3 mediocre seasons but I'm committed now I guess

Can't believe the Apple TV app hasn't solved the most basic problem of starting a show from the first episode of a season if I've not watched it already. Incredible stuff by the trillion dollar company

First two episodes of Pluribus really are that good. The first episode might be one of the best pilots I've ever watched

happy halloweeeeeeen🎃 #umineko

i think we are going to find out at some point these guys invented cocaine 2 and have been on it all along

Finished Full Metal Daemon Muramasa. This is a VN that I rate very highly that's one of the best fictional stories I've read that I can recommend to absolutely no one. Content warnings abound but despite all that there is a strong thematic core that's unbeatable wrapped in incredible prose

TFW u open BlueSky and a bunch of ppl are vaguely posting about the same shit
