It is true: today I am zalgotext of your human years old. I want to thank everybody for the lovely messages, and another year of support. I hope to release ten thousand great and terrible videos in this next year, and in doing so to obliterate all human miseries.
Today is Samhain's birthday but I am in New York so am not there to help her celebrate. Please respond to this post if Samhain or her work at SB Plays Games has meant something to you, and wish her a happy birthday. ♥️

I make gameplay videos with the goal of introducing people to interesting new games and helping people get better at the games they already love. I play a lot of strategy games, especially 4X games in...

This isn't that big of a twist. I think everyone knows I'm a sell-out.

Honestly what I want is a Camina Drummer Life Simulator. Half insanely detailed resource management tactical space game half pansexual polyamorous dating sim.

I saw this in a thread about Pluribus, and I was really taken aback. I guess I want a little bit of a check in: is this last post a common way of thinking about stories? It seems incredibly shallow and egocentric to me, and so limiting in terms of what kinds of stories you'd be able to engage with.

Excellent work from Critical Kate, as always.
Who coined "Metroidvania"? It wasn't @jparish.bsky.social, and he'll be the first to tell you. Besides, there are far more interesting questions, like: How did it spread? Evolve? And what's it got to do with rickrolling?

Watch til the end for a post-credits sting.

Yep. And they’re gonna make a ton of money and we’re going to be told how it’s soooooo important for marginalized people to support.
the part that's broken about the games industry is that a publisher can show off a kickass scifi game at The Game Awards three weeks after the news reported that their CEO asked ChatGPT how to rip off devs

and then they're followed by Evanescence

One effect of wanting to put alt text on everything is that I post a lot fewer board game pictures than I otherwise would. I mostly take pictures during other players' turns, and I don't want to hold the game up typing descriptions on my phone, and then by the time the game is over I've forgotten.

Patisserie Rococo maintains the things I enjoyed about Rococo, and I really enjoy the way the card management works. I don't love the artwork, although I can't quite put my finger on the problem; it's just kind of... mundane, I guess? Overall though I'm quite happy to add it to the collection.

I forgot how wild 2016's releases were. The greatest increase in my esteem then to now probably belongs to HITMAN, which revealed itself to be the seed of something extraordinary, and in hindsight it's easy to see how much of that was already there.

GOTY then and now would still be The Witness.
Quote this with what you would have said your game of the year was at the end of 2016, and what you would say your favourite game of 2016 is now, if it differs
