Hello. I want to put stuff somewhere and I guess it's either here or Facebook, and neither one feels particularly good. God knows I don't want to maintain a proper blog. Do people even do that anymore? Anyway, I'll have to figure something out.

Random YT vod: "How 'Good Graphics' Killed Video Games"
Video games make hundreds of billions of dollars annually. That we should all have such a shambling corpse.

As a graphical fidelity enjoyer, I might bat an eye lid. Perhaps even both eye lids.
The games with 10 year anniversaries in 2025 could come out now, completely unaltered, and no one would bat an eye lid.

Please save me from continuity. Please save me frrom canon. Please save me from people who desperately need a timeline. Please save me from the insipid, nerdy need to connect dots that don't need connecting.
Please save me from #DonkeyKong Lore.

People who think video games are one of the expensive hobbies are clearly not musicians. BRB I need to finance another guitar.
Absolutely laughable to call gaming "one of the most expensive hobbies around" because a video game costs ten dollars more. Gamers are children and should be treated with distain.

Gotta be honest here.
Sleep Token sucks. Haven't heard anything this popular but also bad in a long time.

These collabs between different IPs? Diablo x Beserk? Overwatch x Street Fighter? Don't know why but I don't like it. Feels cringe. ("It's cringe that you said cringe." Yes, I know.)

I was finally able to get a physical copy of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Going to stop my Game Pass playthrough - I'm at the end - and restart on PS5.
Gonna have to spend another 50 hours on an excellent game. Woe is me.

Switch 2 not making insipid, eye-rolly posts about how other people pre-ordered a Switch 2.

It took 7 hours at PS5 launch before I was able to get an order to go through, and that was before retailers implemented these queueing systems. A lot of adding to cart and failing.
The Switch 2 wait was a damn breeze in comparison.
