Brain Rot Blog

I've been gaming since I could walk, and for most of that time, I've been told video games will rot your brain. I'd like to push back against that stigma, by sharing all the words I've learned from games over the years.

I think I would like to try out the Forest Hermit class in my next run.

You know, just in case anyone still held out hope that the military would refuse unlawful orders...

It's also always bugged me that they aren't even consistent. The first Return movie established eating brains is the only thing that staves off the pain of death, but in RotLD3, it's flipped: pain is the only thing that staves off the hunger.
Like, pick a lane.

Honestly, the Bush years were kind of like the Star Wars prequels. At the time, people thought they were an embarrassment, but about as bad as things could get...then 20 years later, something far, far worse dropped.

That's it for now. Any other thoughts/ideas are welcome!

The website name, itself.
This is probably an anagram for something, but I haven't taken the time to unscramble it yet. But the website title on the tab it opens is just "Remo," which I see derives from the Latin, Remus, meaning "oarsman." More on this one later, maybe.

#Observer
More accurately, >OBSERVER_ was a retro-cyberpunk murder mystery that I'm only including because Bloober owns the rights. Highly unlikely, since nothing about this has a cyberpunk look to it.

#TheMedium
One of Bloober's most ambitious games, the "peek into the darkness" message might be a nod toward the split world gameplay mechanic they introduced in the first one. Not much about the aesthetic of the site really fits that game though, so who knows?

#WhiteDay
Also unlikely, but the countdown is set to end on Valentine's Day. White Day is a series of horror games tied to a holiday in parts of Asia, where men who get gifts from women on Valentine's are expected to get them something more expensive in return. The timing seems...interesting.

#LayersofFear
Including this one since it's Bloober's first notable series. But the games were all about artists going insane, and there's nothing about the look of the website that feels like part of the series. Possible, but unlikely, I think.

#SilentHill
I haven't played Bloober's SH2 remake, but I've heard it's great, so it would make sense for #Konami to give them the green light to remake another one--or a whole new game. Especially since their plan is to have yearly releases for the series, for better or worse.

#Cronos
Cronos: The New Dawn would've been a solid contender for my personal GotY in any year without Expedition 33. It left a lot of unanswered questions, so it would make sense for a sequel/DLC to be on the horizon. Plus, it heavily uses time travel, so the countdown fits thematically.

I love how he actually thought one of its selling points would be making mandatory work meetings even worse by expecting people to wear clunky headsets and just assuming that their avatars would be SFW.

I doubt he can count past 10 without taking off his shoes. He's never going to actually know how many seats are in there.

I'm actually a little surprised they haven't done Joust: Recharged yet.
