The AYN Thor is great
It runs Valkyria Chronicles, Oblivion, Demon's Souls and a ton of PS2 games
...so of course I'm using it to play old, pixely dungeon crawlers

Here's hoping a critical look at Star Wars Outlaws and Episode VIII will only attract reasonable people who will join the conversation in good faith
(...after all, is it less likely than a new Thief game?)

I made a video about the five Tenchu mobile games (and some fan art of Ayame playing said games)
Hopefully, one day we'll get to play the three lost ones: Ninjutsu Kaiden, Shinobi no Hyōhō and Sengoku Hiroku)

Someone claimed Star Wars Outlaws doesn't run on the Steam Deck. Still had it installed, so I recorded some footage to show them what it's actually like (not great, but still playable with low FPS)
I had so much fun with the bike I kept playing just to do donuts in Akiva. Maybe it's time for an LP!

I don't think you could move the camera around while driving vehicles until GTA San Andreas (on PC, at least). And it recenters once you start driving anyway...
...I've also kept my PSP reflexes
So I've installed this right thumbstick mod. It plays just like it would on a PS2... but I never use it

Everytime I find my endgame and am on the verge of buying it, a new endgame is announced. It just never ends.

Been replaying the original Assassin's Creed after Shadows. I just love the old combat system. Kinda wish they had kept it

After sitting on it for a while, I finally installed Adrenaline on my Vita and turned it into a Tenchu machine (that also streams Ghost of Tsushima)
Replaying Tenchu 2, I found it funny how Tatsumaru, Rikimaru & Ayame seem to be the village's only ninjas and I wondered where the other ones could be

I beat Splinter Cell Essentials!
Not sure the name is appropriate. It has some really weird controls for a PSP game, its story is just okay and there's not much variety in gameplay...
...but after I gave up on both Peace Walker and Portable Ops, I'm glad I was at least able to complete this one

I'm not sure there's much point to it, but I made a grid out of all the stealth games I've ever completed
(plus four greyed out placholders which I expect to finish soon-ish, to fill the gaps)
Splinter Cell: Blacklist is the latest addition

Have you ever played a game that isn't good, but you want to keep playing anyway?
The closest experience I've had to this was the Legend of Zelda series from the 80s. It wasn't particularly good, but by the time I got to the last episode, I wasn't ready for it to end

Having just completed Metal Gear 2 for the first time, I would normally draw something about that and share some thoughts
Instead I had a random thought about Tenchu: Fatal Shadows
These series are intertwined in my head, I hope if one can be revived, the other can too someday

Didn't have plans to comment on the Switch 2 situation, but ALL the content creators I watch/read are talking about it
I'm easily influenced, so I dusted off my Lite to play some Metal Gear 2 (the MSX game, not the PS2 one)
...made me realise I was really not the target audience for an upgrade

You were right when you said we were all born with parts to play, Magmar. Yours just happened to be "Owlbear snack" and "fertilizer"

A silly Reddit doodle about Goblins, flowers and druids (loosely based on an idea by u/Ryu_Ugoroshi)
I did make my Dream Guardian Sailor Moon in a previous playthrough and forgot about it (imagine my surprise!)
Probably gonna indulge in this silliness again when I replay Kerbal as a Ranger/Druid

It turns out you don't really need friends when you can channel the power of the Moon (to punish people) and shape-shift into an Owlbear

I have no plans to make it a full series, but I'll gladly draw the funny situations she finds herself into every now and then
