I honestly don't want to harp on this. I've been a mod, I know it's hellish at times. But there's so many barriers to getting the word out on creative projects. It's not just r/ARG. Try posting to r/videos, or r/analoghorror.

Anyway, THEE HYMNALS deserves way better.

A screenshot of a reddit comment from the ARG-ModTeam account. It reads: [Low Quality Posts / Not an ARG] There is a myriad of reasons a post can be deemed low quality, including, but not limited to, a post that consists mainly of code/a cipher, a picture/video with no context/bad title, a link to a picture/video with no context/bad title, asking for help with a cipher/a code, promoting an analogue horror, promoting a Minecraft game/a game mode/a game map, or a post that is not about an ARG. Adherence to the post quality standards is essential. Describe the main storyline or theme of the ARG. Summarize the ARG premise and highlight recent findings or puzzles that need solving. If allowed, include images or screenshots of clues, along with links to any necessary ARG sites or resources.

Text reads "St. Cecilia's Blasphemous Bordello" in a stylized font. The shadow of a hand bent in a claw shape can be seen faintly in the background as well as a spatter of blood.

So, when it first came to Gamepass I really wanted to stream Clair Obscur, but for whatever reason playing and streaming that game on my PC at the same time makes it crash. I was really bummed but didn't want to give up forever, so PS5 to the rescue! Today I try again:

Is it wrong to only stream Switch 2 games? I want to mix it up but I'm just loving it too much! More Zelda BOTW and Mario Kart for today.

Saturday mornings were made for cartoons - but what about video games? At some point in my childhood I was playing more Nintendo than watching cartoons on Saturdays. And I'll do the same today! BOTW Switch 2 Edition is on deck. Join me?

Sorry for the late reply but I actually am getting back to you as soon as I could. It actually took us seven months to finish because of our slow play style and how infrequently our schedules line up. I'll try and keep it vague as I can, but

Checking out the enhancements on Switch 2 for BOTW. Worth $10? So far I definitely think so.

Streaming some more Metroid: Samus Returns today. I feel like this game is really underrated. I shouldn't have let it sit in the backlog so long.
