You know it's a rough time when the real voice comes out.

This nightmare is almost certainly my gateway into Metroid-style collect-thing-shoot-thing platformers

As Tears Go By is probably my favorite one by him that I've seen. It might be a bit of a smoother watch: A forbidden love story, gangster fights, lots of neon-tinted street shots. This and a pint of ice cream on a rainy night is probably THE peak cinematic experience

These necromancers are getting out of control.

Now that I've been unplugged for a little while, time to log back in and see what my mutuals have been—

Oh fuck what did I do now

@rockito.bsky.social... yeah, this game is trippy AND a vibe

Uh...

D-drop... drop something handsy, everyone

I must assume that whoever recommended I play Kenshi also deals hard drugs

Another one?!

FromSoft is releasing *another* thing.

I don't know what The Duskbloods is but I'm so behind on my homework, please. Let me play the other fifteen games since DS3 please.

I was not hype at ALL for Nintendo Switch 2 until Direct mentioned GameCube remasters

Finally, I can be an obnoxious Kilik main again

Hey, thanks Tega!

Surprisingly? Not dark fantasy. New Vegas is one of my all-time favorites. I replayed until I earned every achievement, including DLC. This game is part of me now.

More thoughts on HLB, because I can't stop thinking about it:

I've had so much trouble figuring out whether this game is good.

My conclusion: It's fine. I just don't think it knows what it wants to be.

Soulslike? Kinda boss rush? Not quite bullet hell? Almost a roguelike? Breath of the Wild?!

My list is 50% Regina King and 75% "The fuck are you doing"

Well, you know, I wouldn't call this a "Jeez Louise what the fuck" length video, but rather a simple "zoo wee mama"

Guess I'm satisfied with that

Damn.

"You flew just out of reach... buddy..."

Cool, someone has finally conveyed why the "roguelike" store tag has started to become a turnoff for me.

I think me from five years ago would rush to play Nine Sols or Hades 2, but the term has taken on a "sink hours of your life into struggle bait for little reward" aftertaste that makes me shrug

It's really popular right now, I swear. I see it winning GOTY 2024 with a last-minute nomination.

Is this the splash zone? Is this *drip*?

Got called an uninspired NPC by a goddamn AI, and am now reevaluating all life choices

"Red flags:

Has a game backlog longer than your attention span

Frequently lost in RPG dialogue trees

May reference obscure media that no one cares about"

Hmm... am I experiencing it myself, or casting it as a spell upon said goats?

Alright folks, this is mostly a proper introduction for my current moots. But I also set out to make my next #promosky / #gamingsky post my last one for a while — and a good one. Here you go.

Here's who I am, my favorite kinds of media, and how I'd like to interact with you all when I can.
