We're right outside the second gym in Pokemon Lazarus, might make it all the way to gym 4 if we have enough time today! www.twitch.tv/massdefect1

Proof we need a Lost Odyssey remaster has never been quite this obvious.

Okay Bandai I've been giving you a lot of goodwill since you remade a much-needed Tales game AND made a REALLY good Digimon game, but why the fuck are you announcing Tales of Bersaria is getting remastered when it's one of the MOST available Tales games at the moment? Xillia 2 needed to be next.

Hey wow we're checking out a new Pokemon Rom Hack that just released called Pokemon Lazarus. It's definitely a unique one, so come check it out with me! www.twitch.tv/massdefect1

Played through this game yesterday afternoon. The soundtrack of this game is CRAZY, especially if you've played Curse Crackers before this. Their music artist never misses, the dude is insane.

I think it's time for me to piss off a specific subset of gamers right now. I don't think Final Fantasy as a series would be inherently ANY better if they just stuck to turn-based combat instead of moving to these more action-oriented styles. This is gonna be a long thread, buckle in. /1

This year's Game of the Year nominees might be the most unsurprising list of games we've ever had. The only surprising thing is they had 2 slots taken by token indie game nominees that won't win (3 if we wanna count E33 which TGA does but some people don't). E33 is by far my winning game no contest.

I'm actually live playing this game right now over on my stream! #NotAnAd Come check this game out and we can talk about what other games I'm thinking of streaming soon. www.twitch.tv/massdefect1

In case anyone is wondering how good the remixes in Age of Imprisonment are, look no further than the forest theme. youtu.be/ltcw23Hi7PM?...

"what games will you play when everything uses AI?" So there's this cool thing called playing older games, did you know we have hundreds of thousands of them? Enough to keep someone busy for multiple lifetimes? I'm not gonna run out anytime soon Still hoping the AI bubble bursts though of course

I miss video game booklets 🥲

Got 100% map completion in Age of Imprisonment which basically means the only excuse i have left to play this game is if DLC comes out, which I'm crossing my fingers for. Great game, definitely in my top 3 of the year.

Working on all the post-game content in Age of Imprisonment, almost done but definitely feeling slightly burnt out. Not "HW:DE" burnt out, obviously, but it could go a long way if they fluffed up the extra content a bit with some more interesting challenge requirements than just level suggestions.

I'm reading and watching reviews for the new Hyrule Warriors game just to see what the critical consensus was & I'm starting to wonder if I somehow played a different game than them. I'm seeing a lot of critics complaining about the story & roster but I actually thought both were major stand outs.

Just finished Age of Imprisonment. I'm honestly astonished how good this ending was, and I'm especially astonished by how Calamo might have came away as the true star of this game. Damn, what a game.

That new Superman movie is actually pretty damn good. Actually enjoyed it unlike a lot of Marvel movies lately. Very impressed.

Claire a la Mode is out in ONE week! Don't be a doof! Add it to your wishlist on Steam If you don't, I'll come to your home and make you drink ketchup water. store.steampowered.com/app/2292860/... #platformer #indiedev #indiegame #pixelart #cute #retro

Almost a year ago, I started this crazy project. And now, it's finally time to vote on "The Greatest Game of All Time!" 501 entries across all of gaming. Choose your Top 10 and let's see what ends up as the greatest! Voting will remain open until the end of 11/23! forms.gle/Wg234Zt3GWvD...

Yeah hey Nintendo quick question: What the fuck are you thinking? Pokopia as a game key cartridge only? Are you fucking serious? Your console cannot hold this many downloadable games yet you continue to force these game key carts on everyone. Fuck off with this bullshit.

Just heard Time Stranger is getting all the Bancho megas in an upcoming DLC which means BAMCHOSTINGMON BABYYYYYYYYYY WE'RE SO BACK.

Age of Imprisonment giving me John and Jane Doe no-name characters for my roster who are somehow almost more fun to play as than any of the known characters. Crazy flex, I approve.

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice. They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

A LOT of industry folks need to take "I think there's a very high possibility that this is all a bunch of horseshit" to HEART.

Holy shit the story is actually really fucking good?!?!? I'm actually loving a lot of the small twists and character moments in Age of Imprisonment so far. Compared to Calamity it feels like they weren't as hamstrung on the timeline of events and could put in lots of good moments to flesh it out.

Holy hell the lost woods zone theme in Age of Imprisonment goes so hard. God these remixes for this game rule.

OK I actually really loved Age of Calamity but Imprisonment is just better in basically every way. Obviously the technical side is improved but the story feels more engaging, the music is KILLER, the combat feels so slick with sync moves & unique moves. Definitely up there as one of the best musuos.

The music in Age of Imprisonment absolutely fucking SLAPS. Legitimately some of the best music the series has had in a while and the bar was already pretty high.

Important Nick Fuentes lore for anyone just learning about him.

I want to call out whoever decided that mega stones were going to be locked behind this shitty ranked online mode. You suck, your ideas suck, and you should be ashamed for having such sucky ideas.

It is officially chocolate orange season which means it's time for me to buy at least a dozen and shove them in my freezer to eat over the next year until the cycle repeats.

My god this is for real one of the most incredible speeches I’ve ever seen by an elected US politician: ‘And if there is any way to terrify a despot, it is to dismantle the very conditions that allowed him to accumulate power. This not only how we stop Trump, it’s how we stop the next one.’

THEY'RE PLAYING NOT LIKE US AT THE MAMDANI CAMPAIGN RALLY

Wild opening paragraph, maybe you shouldn't be the one reviewing a Warriors game then

While I agree that it may be bad practice to go into a game you plan on professionally reviewing saying "I came in wanting to hate it" I think there's a big difference between that & the "Low expections but wanting to try it anyways" mentality. The latter at least acknowledges it may not be for them

Get your oven mitts ready! Release date for Claire a la Mode is... ✨NOVEMBER 17TH! ✨ Wishlist now on Steam so you're ready for all sorts of baking hijinks! 🍰 www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPUg... #indiegame #indiedev #platformer #cute #pixelart #retro

I'm locked back into binge watching all of the @superbunnyhop.bsky.social catalog of videos. Always seems to happen once a year or so, and they're all basically timeless. Pretty sure this is going to be what finally gets me through beating the Monster Hunter Stories games too.

Well shit, housing really IS about to become a lot cheaper in NYC

I want to talk about the "Engagement Hacker" that is @mytipme.com! They blocked me on my original post calling out their deceptive practices, so I wanted to create a proper one for you! DO NOT SUPPORT THIS "SERVICE!"

A toxic trait of mine is I won't reach out first in a spell of silence with people. I assume you: 1: Are Busy 2: Dont need to talk 3: Dont want to talk 4: Need a social break I care. I just don't want to bother you and think you'll reach out when you have the bandwidth. I'm not ghosting. Promise.

The whole nepobaby argument really isn’t about whether they’re even talented or “deserving” of fame. These are people who have the privilege of having access from the start to disposable time and resources to dedicate themselves to a skill/art/industry. It’s far harder to manage that with rent due.

I would kill for one of these right now to mess around with. Really debating between this or saving money for a computer upgrade.

Best not-sports game I've ever played. Also obvious gushing about how the game is made by the same team as Hades which means it's basically a guaranteed slam dunk. Probably the best soundtrack in their library imho.

Once again, NIS RPGs fucking slap and this is a perfect opportunity to grab some of the Ys and Trails games. All of the Ys and Trails games listed here are legit 9/10s minimuml.

Finally got all my physical and most of my digital games documented in a spreadsheet for me to go through just in case I need it for anything. Hopefully I won't ever need it but best to be safe considering how I have a habit of losing things or (more egregiously) accidentally double-buying things.
