I finished Metroid Other M. It has a lot going for it, surprisingly, but the bad parts are *so* bad, they weigh the whole thing down. Controls, bad implementation of upgrades(that power bomb moment was truly dogshit), story isn't even coherent at times and the characterization of Samus is horrid.

I know there's a fan version of Metroid Other M that makes it better, but still, the original version...whoever thought it was a good idea to thrust you into first person whenever you need to use a missile, hopefully, was fired. The control scheme is the biggest blunder of the game.

I had a good two weeks off, replayed a lot of games I like, but it's about time to get back to the content machine.

BioShock is still great, but this time, that last third of the game felt especially weaker compared to the rest of the game. I haven't played this in a long time, so it was a great revisit overall, but that final boss is just such a weird tonal shift.

Here's part 1 of our Metal Gear Solid 2 podcast. I edited the video, so there's visual to go along with it. 4 hours here, 4.5 hours next week. This game is DENSE with stuff to talk about!!

Finally got around to trying out Metroid Other M. I'm pretty early on, and yes absolutely, the story and characterization is NUTS...but I'm honestly not feeling like this is *bad*, more so *weird and interesting*. I think the mix of 2D and 3D spaces has legs, it's kind of intriguing.

Delaying the start of the video-a-week project until next week, just to assure I'll have time. Sorry for the wait, videos will be on the way!

@tinari.bsky.social Can someone at Housemarque please fix Nex Machina on steam? If your monitor has HDR, it overrides your windows settings and forces a very dim-looking HDR onto you, making the game look terrible. Some fixes the community have pitched aren't working. This is pretty rough.

Genuinely hilarious "argument" by Mark Cuban. He's advocating for AI for educational use, and when someone shows him how AI can steer uneducated people wrong, he's like "well it's either AI or nothing, so let's give up" lmao

Trying my best to get an EDF World Brothers video out before the end of the month. I'm working on other videos at the same time, so it's been a slower process. Expect zombies after EDF.

Marvel's Midnight Suns is on a huge sale on Steam right now. If you watched my big video on it last year, you'd know how much I love it. Pick it up if it interests you, it's great!

Looks like the other render is essentially the same, youtube compression just didn't like this game much. It doesn't look horrible or anything, but it's not as crisp as the file on my PC. Oh well. Video will be published by the end of the month. An hour and 20 minutes of Kunitsu-Gami.
January 27, 2025 at 11:27 PM
New video is up on Patreon in early access. I'm trying to get YouTube memberships working so I can do early access there too, but in the meantime, I'm re-rendering the video with some different settings, hoping I can get it looking a little better.

Me when I'm editing a video and doing nothing else: I wanna play video games :(

Me when I'm playing games and not in the middle of a video: I'm not being productive at all, I gotta make a video soon :(

Playing Metroid Prime 2 again, first time in a decade at least. One of the only things I strongly remembered was the Boost Ball Guardian boss, and sure enough, he's an absolute beast of a fight. Died twice to him. Fun though, still enjoying the game a lot. Maybe not as much as 1, but still awesome.

As of now, I'm liking Dying Light 2...a lot. I'm curious if my enthusiasm continues for the whole playthrough, and if so, if it can sustain a second go round.

I keep finding clear ways where DL2 improved upon DL1 as I go. I think I was too far up my own ass back in 2022, this game is fun.

What are y'all's favorite video games series? My rule is you gotta love at least 3 games in the series, and you can't use developers like fromsoft as a series replacement.

I'd say for me:

Zelda
Resident Evil
Metroid
Earth Defense Force
Pikmin

Finished the Blood West DLC, Dead Man's Promise. Very good, basically like a fourth chapter. Great new enemies, fun new items and weapons(staffs are so cool), decent setting, nice new skills to unlock, and a cool looking final boss. I look forward to whatever the Blood West devs do next.
January 13, 2025 at 2:18 PM
Started Blood West DLC. Probably won't make a video on it, I recommended and talked enough about the base game I think, but I'm already having a great time. Love this game.
