Hey @eurogamer.bsky.social, @gamesradarplus.bsky.social

I’ve been a follower for over a decade, I’ve gone out of my way to support games journalism where I can - but when I see clickbait headlines and “link in comments” posts. I’m done. I’m sure I’m far from alone.

Just food for thought.

Spending some time with this NES gem today.

So say some schmuck from the east coast of North America wrote some non fiction drivel based on 26-ish years of video game retail experience. Is that something people would actually read? Would they care? #videogames

So, real talk, I just finished Tristan’s companion quest line in The Outer Worlds 2. He went from a bland sidekick I could ignore to one of the all time great companions - that’s some DAMN FINE writing, @obsidianent.bsky.social. BRAVO!

Hey @obsidianent.bsky.social - thanks so much for including 3rd person perspective in Outer Worlds 2.

For what it’s worth, that got a preorder out of me.

Ok, I’m actually really digging this one. Is it technically astounding? Nope. Is it the worst game this year? Also nope. It IS an action adventure with story and characters that feel ripped right off of a lost PS3 hard drive - I mean that in the best way possible. #videogames, #mindseye

On this day, 14 years ago; Microsoft torpedoed the good faith and rapid upward trajectory of the xbox360 with one of the worst E3 conferences in the history of E3. It would divide and confuse their fanbase, and cause ripples still felt today. #kinectstillsucks

Getting close, I think. 70+ hours, and one of the best dang games I’ve played - absolutely LOVED my time in Eora, and I’m hungry for more.

Every corner of the games vast maps feel hand crafted by someone who just wanted players to find something cool. It’s been amazing! @obsidianent.bsky.social

Snow day!!!!

So, I found a flaming sword! This game is incredible, and quickly becoming one of my faves of this generation.

Found a lighthouse! Had to climb it!

DAMN!! For reasons I won’t get into, I LOVE this dang game!

@obsidianent.bsky.social - impressions after ~4 hours of AVOWED;
- the world is gorgeous, and encourages exploration and roaming in a great handcrafted space.
- combat is fun and challenging, even on story.
- the 3rd person view is brilliant and works perfectly! (THANK YOU SO MUCH!)

So far, a 10.

So jazzed for this one!!! @obsidianent.bsky.social

Hey BlueSky, when last we met, it was pretty much this one guy (whom I shall not name) responding to everyone who’d tagged him.

So here I am, back again;

I’m Steve; I write about movies, games, and physical media. I love Starfield and Mass Effect, I enjoy pen and paper (A LOT).

Hello!

As a bonafide summer booster, I’m kind of ready for fall now. Where my Pumpkin Spice weather at?

Climate change is real.

So… Starfield…
After spending the the long weekend plugging in 40+ hours, it has taken the throne. How could it not have? I grew up with Space Shuttle posters and Star Wars. This game is an uncompromising masterpiece, it’s not for everyone, but it IS for Steve!
