Okay, Summer Game Fest coverage from yours truly incoming in thread form. First off, I didn't see any of what I expected, so my predictions have never been more wrong. But some cool stuff nevertheless.

Remember how they said "next look summer 2026" and how I said I was worried about Warlock after the Giant Skull D&D game got cancelled. Um... I'm real worried now. Thought this was a given for SGF comicbook.com/gaming/featu...

Curious about the new D&D horror subclasses in Ravenloft: The Horrors Within? I got to check 'em out early and I've got the details. comicbook.com/gaming/list/...

Good morning, Bluesky! Nothing like waking up to an unexplained internet outage on Summer Game Fest day when you work in games journo. 😱

Today is Azula’s birthday so she got a nice long walk at the park and some chicken viewing time.

Pokemon Champions is FINALLY coming to mobile, and the timing is pretty interesting to say the least. comicbook.com/gaming/news/...

Good morning, Bluesky! The sun is shining and this migraine flare is maaaaaybe almost gone, so we'll take it.

Okay but Dave the Diver prequel that’s a cooking sim meets RPG hybrid? I’m ready.

When I tell you that the Ravenloft book might be the best thing Wizards has put out in years... I mean, just LOOK at the artwork. This is a preview, as I've only JUST gotten my hands on this beauty. Full review to come.

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis has a release date & a shiny new trailer! Coming out February 2027, a bit later than planned. comicbook.com/gaming/news/...

It's Summer Game Fest week so I'm gazing into my imaginary crystal ball trying to predict some of what we'll see.

When I tell you that the Ravenloft book might be the best thing Wizards has put out in years... I mean, just LOOK at the artwork. This is a preview, as I've only JUST gotten my hands on this beauty. Full review to come.

I got to check out Paralives in Early Access! This has been one of my most anticipated games as a longtime fan of The Sims. Still very rough around the edges, but I like the game's fresh take on a few key areas, like its cooking and personality systems.

Had the pleasure of getting to check out the new KPop Demon Hunters collectible trading cards early for review! They are very shiny and really capture the vibes of the movie, but I do wish it was a game, not just collectible cards.

Had to circle back for the LEAST popular Pokemon, as well. Is your favorite on the list? comicbook.com/gaming/list/...

Me settling into another migraine flare up after driving to Ohio and back to spend time with my family and fully disrupting my routine for 3 days. Worth it, but man is chronic illness the worst sometimes.

Azula was not interested in patiently waiting for her controller chew toy while I took a picture, apparently 😂

Even if I could, I probably wouldn't ever spend this much on Pokemon cards. But I find watching these auctions fascinating anyway.

It is I, your witchy game correspondent, here to make sure you don't miss the Witches, Wizards, & Warlocks event on Steam. Ton of great upcoming games & deals to peruse. comicbook.com/gaming/news/...

Sometimes I use search engines to find my older articles for backlinks because it's the fastest way to do it. And the amount of my content that AI search scrapes and just serves up is WILD. Clicks to my work are literally how this is a job & you're out here just "summarizing" the whole thing?

Good morning, Bluesky! Half day before a long weekend trip home today so naturally I get to somehow cram like 3 days of work into 4 hours before I go.

Hello yes I am very excited for Under a Rock. This trailer is stunning.

I insisted on taking the time to put every Pokemon image over the map of its home region for this list, and I am very pleased with the results. comicbook.com/gaming/list/...

Good morning, Bluesky! Please enjoy the chickens getting their morning walk in.

Good morning, Bluesky. Cracked the window so I can listen to the rain. Let's get after this Wednesday!

Chronic migraine flare-ups are the WORST. But I will say, few things top the relief and weightlessness of that first pain free day after a long one. I feel like a superhero today.

I got to check out Outward 2's closed beta early for a preview. I got my butt kicked, repeatedly. But I kind of respect it? This one will challenge you for sure.

Good morning, Bluesky! The sun is shining and this extra-long migraine flare might finally be over. So, let's get after it!

Truly wild to me every time I get royalties from my book. It's never much, but it's so exciting to know more people took a chance on my work!

Kinda wild this is actually my view tbh.

Morning, Bluesky! It’s a rainy, windy day but one of the roosters is feeling VERY vocal. They grow up so fast 🥹

Welp, they announced a special promo card for the Pokemon Fossil Museum. I thought they were going to skip it to avoid a Felt Hat Pikachu repeat, but alas... I'm just gonna leave this here. comicbook.com/gaming/news/...

Happy Chaos Rising Day, Pokemon fans! Here are a few of my faves I managed to pull from the set:

Good morning, Bluesky! It’s rainy but my migraine is better this AM and one of the chickens is discovering his voice. (This guy front and center greeted me with an almost rooster call this morning)

Hello yes I did MATH (and then made my former engineer husband check said math) about projected pull rates for Pokemon TCG's Chaos Rising!

Love when you wake up on day 3 of a migraine to the news that G**gle is once again redoubling its efforts to destroy the industry you work in. But hey. At least there are chickens.

Hi, Bluesky! I got to review the latest Yoshi game, and it's a cute if surprisingly short little platformer! comicbook.com/gaming/revie...

Happy Saturday! My review for Chaos Rising is now live! This one didn't have as many big hits for me, but there are some really interesting cards for building decks. comicbook.com/gaming/revie...

Morning, Bluesky! If my efforts to make coffee with this migraine are any indication, it’s going to be a DAY. But we got this!

View from my morning chicken chores.

The Pokémon Company was kind enough to send me some Chaos Rising product early for review over at ComicBook! Stay tuned for my thoughts & my pull rate calculations, aka me doing a bunch of math that I make my former engineer husband double-check.

Good morning, Bluesky! Yesterday was super busy with reviews & review prep, so... today I'm playing email catch up. PR folks if I owe you a response I am hoping to get it out today!

Spring Marathon event starts today in Pokemon Go! I actually really love hatching eggs because Adventure Sync motivates me to get my steps in. So I'm pretty excited for this event. Now if only they'd let us delete eggs we don't want to make room... comicbook.com/gaming/news/...
