Oh yeah, Happy Pride Month

The thing that makes dungeon crawler games difficult to recommend to people who don't share that particular sickness is that I think it is funny and entertaining when the dungeon designers are deeply unfair to me.

Spotted on Tumblr…

We're cute

He has arrived. One of my last remaining grail kits, the MG Turn X.

the word "aura" is derived from "auron", a character from popular playstation two game "final fantasy x", and means "embodying a state where you are cool like auron"

"The Switch is so old," you all said. "I need better graphics," you demanded. "Wah wah," you cried. And now, you sit here before Slippy Toad, the slippiest he's ever been, slippier than a fucking banana peel under a kart wheel, all thanks to the raw power of the Nintendo Switch 2—and you reject him?

Most of my gaming over the last month or so besides Pragmata has been playing the absolute hell out of the original Resident Evil. I've done about four runs so far and probably have a few more left to wrap up all the RetroAchievements. Just an incredible game, through and through.

A class at my kids’ school put up little statements about the good they want to do in the world and I was over the moon about this one - then I learned they meant to say “teach people in jail” which is also good!

Immersive sim irl

there's lots of changes but one of the major differences between the new internet and the old internet is that on the old internet when someone linked to an article that generally meant you would actually be able to read it

Sometimes you just gotta chill out and go to a minor league baseball game.

Lina Inverse from Slayer, commissioned by Anonymous. I love how this piece turn out ^ ^

10. The Duke of Shadows by Meredith Duran I really loved the first half of this one, set just before and during the Indian Rebellion of 1857: the lives of the characters being completely upended by the violence inflicted by, to, and through them. The rest is fine but more of a standard histrom.

The most bad-ass rebuttal from Tite Kubo, the author of Bleach.

Being named Houston while watching space streams means thinking someone is talking to me every couple of minutes.

On this Trans Day of Visibility, and every other day on the calendar--- always and forever:

Is Valis good? Not particularly, but I also can't stop playing it.

okay so AI is absolutely cratering imminently and I need all of you to PROMISE me you won't take the high road, and will laugh and rub it in their faces as much as possible. I need you to laugh and go 'WE TOLD YOU SO, BITCH" at every opportunity, PLEASE be extremely mean and ruthless

I've spent so much time idling for cards that the true numbers are known only to me, but there are some extremely funny answers in there. Forever messing up my playtime for a sweet forty bucks was worth it though.

was very bored during a long car ride and drew a loto with princess gwaelin because i like how she carries the torch for you in the hd2d remake

I finished RE:Village! I felt like some of the sections could've gone on a bit longer (like Lady D's castle). A lot of Village feels over before it even starts! I think I maybe prefer 7 just for the more focused structure but I still had a pretty great time with 8. Now, back to RE4R!

I've been made aware that the MtG butt-crack awareness guy is an indie wrestler under the name Bigg Pound aka "The King of Crack-style" and his match promos are works of art. The world is a beautiful place full of endless wonder.

"all of the best" aka "I'm throwing this email chain out of my mind the exact second I hit send and will never think of it again"

It lives! The SD card slot was the problem and a new part fixed it! I also bought a busted 2ds as a backup project to tinker with, so that I stop trying to improve this one. Not gonna touch that circle pad until it really truly breaks.

Beyond Citadel (like The Citadel before it) is full of sexual imagery and violence and how the two collide along with a deeply personal story and some of the best gun handling I've ever seen, making it one of the best shooters I've ever played and also impossible to recommend to anyone. I loved it.

i went my whole life thinking i was giving onix the tungsten cube

as a jrpg fan, my primary interests in video games are raising and lowering sewer gates, such as to manipulate the water level

Kinda refreshing for a game to just say "nah dog, you gotta be level 8 to beat this boss, get to grinding" Shortly after you meet a character who says "look I'm level 7 and you need to be at least level 6 before I'll work with you".

Somehow managed to break my 3ds while trying to swap out the control pad. I think I must have busted the SD card reader, because the card itself is fine, copied all the files to a brand new SD card, and even that one didn't work. And the system loads without an SD card in there.

Trying to think of the 9 most formative games is tough! I went in a more "first experience, long lasting impression" feeling that I usually compare a game to. Not all of these hold up (I would recommend a newer Story of Seasons or Etrian Odyssey) but I was absolutely obsessed with them for a time.
