Finally gave up and bought a PS5. Indika was the first thing I wanted to play. I love the premise and the setting so much that it's quite disappointing how often it falls into Naughty Dogisms of moving crates and such. When Ilya asks Indika to hoist him up I groaned. Still a beautiful game though.

She will never reach the popularity of Robyn, but in terms of Swedish electro pop nothing tops this track. It's an absolute masterpiece. youtu.be/NCThbR3fwwU?...

I related so much to what Chris Plante said about Nier Automata on the latest episode of My Perfect Console: "I don't need to believe that this game makes sense or that all of it comes together, I need to believe that this is the work of somebody processing".

The Beach Boys is a wonderful, messy universe of brilliance and garbage that you can really lose yourself in, in the best of ways. At the center is the incredible melodic and harmonic intelligence of Brian Wilson. I don't think any other musician has meant more to me. Thank you and rest in peace.
