I just love Final Fantasy so much

In half an episode of X-Men 97 Sabretooth is written better than I’ve ever seen him (in a non-comic)

Knocked over a bunch of games and found out I own Persona 2 while picking them up. I don’t think I’ll ever play it though because I’m very much team “The Persona series started with 3”

All I had was a green kit, a smoke bomb and a dream Purple/Blue shield warriors can’t get in the way of that

I love Star Ocean to death. Also I wish the end of Star Ocean 3 never happened. It just.. trivialized all the other games for me. I think I’ll find the time to really put my feelings into a doc or a video

THIRTIETH??? Bruh how

I've been seeing a few people who came into games writing/journalism like a decade after I did and they talk about my peers who've got some of the few jobs remaining as if they "made it" and I would like to be clear: virtually none of us made it, even (perhaps especially) the people who seemed to

Saw Logan nearly 10 years ago and I still get emotional when I think about that scene at the end with the cross 😭

Wish I never learned what Ludonarrative Dissonance is. It’s ruining my 2nd playthrough of Uncharted 4. Why IS he so cool with murder? The fact it’s usually faceless mercenaries takes a little bit of the edge off, but I feel like after 4 games of this he should be a *little* more fucked up over it?

I want to play Parasite Eve on modern hardware without emulating it. Why can’t I do that

Surprising myself at how un-hype I am at Trails in The Sky SC Remake being on our doorstep. Everything post-Reverie (although, tbh post-Cold Steel 4 because Reverie is just an epilogue) has seen my excitement continue to diminish.

Hikari vs Globo holyyyyyyy it was worth tuning into EVO 🤯

OC Transpo simulator getting real

With my only Resident Evil experience being 4,5,6 the coolest part about playing RE2 for the first time is how Leon doesn’t know shit about fuck. He’s *genuinely* just some guy?? I like how he wasn’t always HIM. Mans had to embrace the HIM.

Picked up Jeanne D’Arc on the PSP at a flea market well over a decade ago. Never got to it. Feeling some severe gamer apathy and saw it had a lil remaster for PS5 on PS+, can’t hurt to give it a go for a few min. Game absolutely slaps??????

Watched Tokyo Vice and I’m *fiending* a Yakuza game now. Devastated I’ve already played every single one

They got my boy out here drawing all enemy attention to us 😭

I’m a little out of the loop on 2XKO meta but I see ppl complaining about freestyle Honestly.. why would you ever play any other fuse? It does double down better than double down It does 2x assist WAY better than 2x assist I’ve never seen team fight used but it’s probably better than that too

After a week or so of learning Senna x Akali, this team slaps. The freestyle combos are a little too execution heave for my taste, but Akali with Senna assists backing her up is that GOOD shit

RE2 experience update: Saw a buff zombie with a hat lift a helicopter, and it can’t die, and it keeps chasing me, and I can hear its footsteps everywhere I go I hate it here

Wait hold on Hundred Line Academy is kinda sick

Oh another Persona 5 Royal thought: Akechi is so funny in the extra semester. Prefer him way more than in the base game. Everyone else is so positive and “go get ‘em” and he just takes every opportunity to crash out

I stg it’s going to take me a year to finish playing like this but idc I’m scared

You can get suspended for saying you want to hit Sam Altman with hammers

Stepping out of my comfort zone and playing Resident Evil 2 remake I hate horror. I am scared easily. I think it’s stupid to pay money to be scared All the remakes were on sale and people LOVE these games, and it’s important to step outside yourself So far, like, yeah it’s good but my chest hurts

Played Persona 5 Royal I stuck through to the end for the incredible battle system/UI that tickles my brain, but idk, that extra semester didn’t do as much for me as I thought There aren’t a lot of games I’ll play twice, and maybe I would have been WAY more jazzed if I hadn’t played the original

Played 007 First Light. The playground approach to progressing through missions hit so hard for me. They nailed the aesthetic. Thrilling spy adventure. Loved seeing Bond earn his number. Game was FANTASTIC.

Played Ninja Gaiden 4. Excellent Platinum Games gameplay. Feels so good to play and really gets the heart rate up. Not a fan of re-treading previous levels and fighting the same bosses as a different character because *plot*, but luckily it's a lot quicker the second time. Enjoyed it a lot.

Played Final Fantasy Tactics: Ivalice Chronicles. Superb voice acting accentuates some of the best writing I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying QOL changes were great (how saving works around multi stage battles) but still a bummer how the most interesting characters are unlocked right before it ends

Played Pragmata. I loved Hugh so much more than I expected to. Was nervous what hacking and shooting at the same time would be like but they nailed it. I smiled a lot. I got sad a little. I fist pumped after clearing challenged rooms. Absolute banger, please play Pragmata. Capcom got a W.

Played Alan Wake 2. Combat got a lil samey and the visual effects caused me a headache like twice. But other than that, such a banger near perfect game. This is what video games are about. I love Alan, Saga, and all the weird shit that happens to them. Peak presentation. Thick suspense. Fantastic.

Played Trails Beyond the Horizon. I fear I’m slowly getting over the series. Or at least that’s how I felt for the first 75% or so of this game. A lot of it comes together CRAZY in the last bit so I’ll play future games, but overall, Van’s story hasn’t gripped me like the other subseries’ did.

Played Star Wars: Outlaws. So impressed with this one. The open world stuff didn’t feel annoying. For every random piece of loot marked on the map, there’s a cool environmental puzzle or stealth challenge. Space Combat, Ground Combat, an Stealth Mechanics all felt tuned. Cities felt LIVED IN.

Played Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii. Avoided it for a long time because I thought the vibe was to flanderize Majima even harder. I was super wrong. Devs gave his character a TON of care. Add in an *incredible* fantasy Pirate Game in a modern setting, and it’s a total must play.

Halfway through the year. I’m not really sure how updated threads show up on the bsky TL, so games played so far RTs incoming

Bam #art

As a grappler lover, it’s hard to get tilted when grappler players put me in absolute PREDICAMENTS. Like.. it’s an ART to set up nonsense and I appreciate every step like a rabid fanboy. Hate that they had to do it to me, but I’m glad someone is doing it.

I love fighting game players so much. Just played like 20 matches with a stranger Told him his Blitzcrank was awesome and made me laugh He told me my Senna (who I was feeling kinda shaky on) was really good And we’ll probably never interact again. Just out here hoping others continue to improve

Finished the base content in Persona 5 Royal, about to move to the extra semester, so I don’t *hate* it or even particularly dislike it But playing through this, as well as P3 Reload last year, in a post-Metaphor world has really affirmed just how done I am with playing a plucky highschooler

Akali’s corner BnB having 3 wall cling cancels in it is hilarious, but anyways I’m stronger now

Booted up 2XKO because Senna is out and I wanna see how things are going. What do you MEAN THE Caitlyn skin bundle costs SIXTY of the King’s dollars??? SIXTY???

Got a new friend into Marathon and I guess he likes it because he's bringing Tau Ceti IV into other games (WIP)

HD2D Final Fantasy, new Xenoblade, new Fire Emblem, 2027 might be time to get a Switch 2 finally

Would like to update my feelings: Very disappointed in the Gen AI stuff people have been pointing out. Was excited to see Evie’s focus as a brawler, as punch-girl is one of my fav archetypes, but the discourse is making me really THINK about her design. (Continued 👇)

Catching up on the Xbox showcase and I’m very excited for new Hellblade. My fav part of those games is how I have no idea if any of that stuff is actually happening to SENUA or not

Foaming at the mouth Synapses in shambles Banger Summer Games Fest

TIIIIIIIIFAAAAAAA

TIFA IS REAL

New Stellar Blade got me in my FEELINGS🔥🔥🔥🔥
