On the one hand, it's been a very bad weekend. On the other, I have a new review up for Spilled!:

Oh, look at that. Embark didn't do anything to fix shooting through walls or moderation for Arc Raiders' patch today. Color me surprised
December 16, 2025 at 4:07 PM
Took me a bit, but I'm really getting into and liking The King is Watching. Went from having a lot of runs fizzle to being able to more quickly and better adapt if a certain build order doesn't come up

It's going to be interesting to see with the new update for Arc Raiders if Embark has any interest in trying to save face; if there's ACTUAL moderation, fixing the unintended shooting through walls or, hell, I dunno, making players sturdier than a frozen piece of cardboard

Not super keen on Witchfire's new update; haven't been able where to sus out the location for the new equipment, but ramping up the enemy count/intensity during runs without more active ways to counteract them just reads like an artificial difficulty spike

7.4 is adjusting Dzemael and Aurum Vale? Are they making the Vale worse or worse? It's a trick question because Aurum Vale should never exist and so help me DOG I will tear that place out by its code, line by line if given the chance, and another thing-

This is why I hoot about showcases like SUGOI or Games To Get Excited About, because they seem to have either a very small to no entry fee in order to participate. That, and you don't die a slow death whenever Keighley is on-screen with him wanking about rad he is
Publishers and studios who want to show off their games during the main show at a Keighleyfest usually have to pay a not small chunk of change for the privilege at The Game Awards. https://bit.ly/4oNuqnC

Been thinking about returning to that article I was going to write about Silent Hill 2's remake, and how the actor portraying James really complicated my feelings (in a constructive, creative way) on the character compared to his original iteration. Just, jeezus, it's heavy

Started up The King Is Watching and - Eyo, is this game peak?
December 10, 2025 at 3:20 AM
Seeing the incredibly inappropriate behavior going on in Arc Raiders lately with slurs and harassment both in and out of the game and getting zero punishment has me wondering if Embark is content with letting themselves turn scummy by association

Finished Out of Hands and got the Logic ending; it ends on a less-than-steller note which is a shame considering how creative it had been leading up to that, but I might run it back with a different deck style for a new playthrough

While I think I'm close to finishing Conscript, I've lost the will to see it through. The fort is a pain to navigate, with shortcuts barely saving much noticeable time
December 6, 2025 at 3:24 AM
Whoo, played Conscript for a good while today. I like what it's doing with it's own spin on Resident Evil, just good heavens, the backtracking

Oh cripes, I've only just now realized that we're due for a wave of pay-to-win slop games mainly developed by bots at this rate
Let it Die: Inferno is maybe the weirdest extraction game I've ever played, both endlessly intriguing and disappointing

Took out some garbage earlier and found out someone a few doors down as a fluffy brown cat; it was walking down the sidewalk and unlike the other neighborhood cats, it didn't dash off and walked by me and gave a small meow

Sat down to play Out of Hands for a bit and then whoops, three hours passed. I was worried it was going to be laden with cheap scares, but so far it's just inducing dread and mild discomfort with its themes. It's been far more thoughtful than I first thought
December 4, 2025 at 4:53 AM
Only got to level 10 with it so far, but I'm digging Hive Scum in Darktide so far. I've avoided being too quick to judge (unlike some of the Steam reviews, lol) since it's still early doors, but the emphasis on being a slippery ranged-yahoo has been fun. New akimbo options are rad

Haven’t checked out the FFXIV thread for a while, wonder what’s-
*first post is someone banging on about DT being worse than Satan and getting lots of boosts for it*
oh
December 3, 2025 at 5:00 PM
Oh good, now the dam in Arc Raiders is shoot-on-sight every round. Can't progress on projects, can't progress on trials, can't collaborate for bosses; we've gone and erased the PvE part of PvPvE. Great job, y'all

@vweet.bsky.social That new Mahjong game you referenced a while ago; is it beginner-friendly or is it geared towards experienced players?

My new kettle is here

Bit smaller capacity, but it having exact measurements for different tea types and the 'alarm' feature are going to be pretty good. It's a gooseneck spout as well for less scalding the ever-loving skin off my hand

Been digging Keys of Fury. It’s quite small but it makes it easy to jump in, do some rounds and then realize an hour has passed by
