Here's the thing that shits me with generative AI (really there are many things). It's the fact that we've successfully merged the word "AI" with the innate assumption of "Generative AI" and it's being used in the most malicious way possible. Saying the phrase "all games use AI" is technically true!

I had a Hades 2 run go well beyond its meager means and earned a cheeky screenshot

I caved and stopped being spoiler free in Blue Prince. I both regret and don't regret the decision. I regret not getting to solve the puzzles but I understand that to solve them would require more time than I have at my disposal.

I've plugged 12 hours into Blue Prince, still haven't found the magical room, and man, I have some fuckin OPINIONS about this game and what it sets out to do

Was Undertale really the first instance/use of the "Despite everything, it's still you" phrase? Just cause it's fun to think how I see that quote used in bigger games and it came from a indie game

I think about writing an RPG but then I remember Lingering Will exists and nothing can top something that raw

Explain your username:

Originally I had a username that was based on my last name w/ numbers. I came across games that demanded usernames without numbers. I couldn't just use my last name, so I spent about 30 minutes putting letters and sounds together until I created Astrious.
Explain your username:

Almost 8 years ago, Panga typod my real name/old username of Stephen, inexplicably leaving out nearly half the letters. I liked it and it stuck
Explain your username:

Originally, SuperSonic came from Sonic 2 when Sonic turned super for the first time with the numbers 71087, my b-day, at the end back in the AIM days. Now, the origin is I speedrun both "Super" Mario Bros and "Sonic" the Hedgehog games. The underscore is just there on Twitch.
