A number of people like the last one, so I thought why not do it again? And this time, I came up with something a bit longer.

I'm not sick or anything, but I've been feeling awful and tired from morning to afternoon lately.
Might have been feeling this way for a long time, except I would always distract myself by using my phone, among other things.
Probably means I need more rest, but I'm hesitant to do so...

I continued to play ZA, and so far, I've enjoyed it. I guess it helps that I am playing on Switch 2, but the menus and battles feel very smooth. This is especially different from S/V back on switch 1 where everything felt sluggish.
Will continue to play until the end of the main story.

Started playing this after Silksong.
Was considering to either play this or Digimon Story: Time Stranger, and my cousin suggested to play this first since this is the shorter game.
And that's not a bad idea.

As a gamer, I don't think crunch is bad. Crunch made some of the best games I've played. Don't developers sign up for it? (Spoiler: Crunch is mostly irrelevant to a game's quality and has a large human cost)

Hey, uh... Weird question, I guess?
Does being interested in stories with gay furry characters make you gay?
I guess the logical answer is "it depends" or "not necessarily", but... Idk, I want to hear your opinions.

Love the twist that you're fighting the Green Prince... And the memory of his partner. So you can only hit one of them now. I was impressed by how trickier that simple tweak made the fight feel.
But I finally defeated him and... Oh shoot, I actually killed him.

The boss fight at the Citadel was a lot of fun, so of course the sequel to it offered more.
I was surprised when I first entered the area. Turns out the reason Cogwork Dancers move like that is because there is an entire race of bugs that DO move like that.

Another Silksong boss. A mini boss that is annoying to defeat despite having simple attacks. Quite a fun fight, but probably not a memorable one.
The next boss is a different story entirely.

It was at this point where I'm sort of confused about where I'm supposed to go. Silksong has a lot of hidden paths that are easy to be missed if you don't pay enough attention. I would later consult the wiki, but at this point, I tried finding the way on my own, and well... I stumbled upon this.

Next Silksong clip. Fought this guy yet again, but with a... darker tone, if you will. And a more challenging fight.
Apparently Trobbio also peeks out when he thinks you're no longer in the room, just like his last fight, but unfortunately I didn't experience it in my playthrough.

Right, I promised I would upload Silksong clips. Why don't we start after my last post?
Dove into the Abyss, and after finding out where Lace and the Grandmother Silk is, climbed back up.
This sequence is actually quite fun, and accentuates Hornet's fun and versatile movement options.

So, is Hollow Knight: Silksong worth $20?
Yes. Absolutely.
The music, the story, the characters, I love them.
The challenging boss fights? I REALLY love them.
That feeling of relief and accomplishment you get after you defeat them is amazing.

Hello, everyone.
Been a while since I posted here, and...
...I finally did it. Act 3 Ending.
I have a lot of clips saved, so maybe I'll post those tomorrow.

I've been browsing the other site from time to time and... Geez.
I haven't played Pokémon ZA just yet, but if/when I do and I share my opinions here, I think I'll start with a disclaimer saying that my opinion is not intended to invalidate other, differing opinions.
Because, again... Geez.

So now (hopefully) everyone knows the original context of the Miyamoto quote from the Kyodo News article.
But that wasn't the only quote in the article.
Where is this quote from the analyst coming from?

This article, once again, did not cite the source.

I had a suspicion that the quote was missing an explanation. Turns out it was!
Now this makes A LOT more sense.
What's frustrating is that the original interview is posted back in Sept. 2024, yet the Kyodo News article is posted in October 2025! It's not even a new interview!

Okay, I don't get what Miyamoto is talking about. Sales? Preservation of medium? Barrier of entry to enjoy games compared to film?
I clicked the article expecting an explanation, but it just continues to talk about Capcom making similar decisions.
Like, huh???
