After three attempts, I've finally gotten to the third season of The Legend of Korra. What a crazy course-correct! I'm still perplexed by some of the decisions, but I thoroughly enjoyed the season. Here's hoping the final keeps it up!

It seems YouTube officially removed sort by new in their search (at least on my app). Since 2013 this has been my main source of finding smaller channels to collaborate with, so networking just got that much harder.

I <3 u yt, thx!

I know it's been said and doesn't need to be said again, but Avatar The Last Airbender is still crazy good. Rewatching again while I work and it's such a treasure.

I've been renting Hades II and it is fun, but I don't think it's for me. I think the grind for progression and large number of systems is too much for my caveman brain. I never processed it but I also think that's why I put down the original. Good stuff, not quite my tempo.

I got to the end area of Metroid Prime 4, forgetting I only had 3 full energy tanks. There are no save stations but boy does it auto save. So I have to beat the final boss with very little energy or load my save station which is just about 3 hours behind in progress... I guess souls mode it is.

"Ice Belt"
"Fury Green"
"Flare Pool"
"Green Energy"
vs
"Phendrana Drifts"
"Chozo Ruins"
"Magmoor Caverns"
"Phason"

Bro why are Metroid Prime 4's names so goofy. I actually laugh every time an area is introduced and I see big text that reads something like "V O L T F O R G E".

After about a week of playing Kirby Air Riders, I've come to accept that I absolutely love the game... And the general public likely wouldn't. It's such a faithful and unapologetic sequel that electrifies fans of the original while hardly addressing what made KAR not click with others to begin with.

I'm streaming Metroid Prime 4 on launch weekend! I made a promise EIGHT years ago that I'd stream my first playthrough, so join me Dec 5 & 6 (next Fri/Sat) at 9am PST to see if a grown man can cry (I wouldn't bet on it, but I'll at least be 15% more giddy). Taking off work so I better see you there!

TimeSplitters Rewind has finally launched as early access and it's crazy fun. This has been a wild year of bringing back my GameCube childhood with Kirby Air Riders, Metroid Prime 4, and now this fan project that I'm praying doesn't get taken down 🙏
