If 20 years on social media has taught me anything, it's that posting is the first step towards disappointment, but I appreciate everyone who has followed, subscribed or checked out my videos, and I look forward to finding new people who love video games.
I thought going back to college in my thirties would suck, but let me tell you, it is so much worse than I thought it would be.

If you haven't seen it yet, Kenneth Branagh's epic 1996 version of Hamlet got an FMV adventure game adaptation that immediately fell into deep obscurity, and I go into its history in GREAT detail. It's my most video so far!

With just an hdmi cable, a bluetooth controller, and an HDMI switch I can show you how to set up a machine that will play your steam games in your living room. If you really splurge on a bluetooth mouse and keyboard, it can do everything your computer does.

The big tech run internet SUCKS, so I learned how to run a VPS and built my own forum. It's old school and modern. It's got signatures and chat. We're doing jams and sharing our art and talking about games. We do not abide bigotry or gen AI.

I'm not sure if it will get it's own video, but Promise Mascot Agency has been a really nice pallet cleanser after getting way too stressed out about youtube.

It reminds me of driving around Vice City as a kid, checking collectibles off my list and reading funny little stories.

Silent Hill 3 is a masterpiece of fear, hate, and the betrayal of expectations. I played through the game recently and analyzed it live~

(Speaking of betraying expectations, this is a week too late to be a Halloween video, but just pretend it's spooky anyway!)

Donkey Kong Bananza was one of my most anticipated games of the year. For a variety of reasons, I ended up not enjoying it, but strangely, that allowed me to appreciate it in its own special way.

NEW VIDEO:

I don't like Castlevania 2 much. Like many, I got told it was bad, played it, disliked it, and agreed for years. But after playing it recently, I still don't like it much. HOWEVER, there's ways it pushed sidescrolling adventure games forward!

Until now.

"The genie is out of the bottle and you're not going to put it back in" - everyone who could literally just ignore the genie and it would die in like a month along with it's shitty, awful wishes that no one ever asked for.

The company used even fewer people to make it this year
