40s Gamer dad and Husband, pretty cool guy, big video game industry nerd!

I grew up with JRPGs and a large amount of empathy. I’ll gladly discuss media literacy and stories with you.

I also love the fuck out of Death Stranding

I laughed way too loud at this

Alright, so.

I’ve not been posting much about video games lately.

Just been too busy actually playing them.

But hey, GHOST OF YOTEI looks fucking incredible, even in mundane moments like pictured here.

Honestly??

This is GOTY ahead of E33 for me.

I’m bouncing hard between games right now.
Full ADHD kinda moment.
I’m hoping Ghost of Yotei next week will pull my focus together, like the first one did.

I am recovering from pink eye HOORAY

I’m gonna play Earth Defense Force 6 to relax.

Yes.

Splattering giant bugs and aliens is relaxing.

Oh fuck are we both on the same game? Lol

Literally same, I have Ishin! and I barely touched it 😭

I got the plat in PY as well; went to uninstall it but the wife was like “Keep it! I want to play with Majima in my free time.”

He’s a favorite you could say lol (she even has two Majima shirts)

Got the Platinum trophy for Cocoon!!

Weird game, very unique puzzles. I didn’t use a guide for this one! Very proud of myself, very “big brain” smug attitude now 😏

I’m playing Chrono Cross
Forspoken
Cocoon
Breath of the Wild
A Plague Tale Requiem

And I started Tales of the Abyss.

I have really fond memories of using a Game Genie to beat Quackshot for the Sega Genesis.
My mom used to have an old video of me dancing excitedly to the end credits because I thought I’d never do it lol

…I don’t need to use hack cheats anymore though, I swear!!

I think I got a weird copy of Death Stranding 2

I have a wishlist on PSN and there are some great sales this week

However

I just bought like… 4 BIG games to go through so nothing on my list really warrants any immediate need to purchase.

They’ll go on sale again.

This is how I talk myself down before hitting that confirm button 😭

I don’t need to care about the opinions of others.

I /do/ care, but I don’t need to.

Especially when those opinions just muddy up my sunny day.

So, in that spirit; friends and strangers alike, how are you today? Tell me something Good, not something dramatically unnecessary.
