Talkin' about old games, mostly Sega.

They let me talk on the HG101 Podcast sometimes by mistake.

He/him/they/them, these are all fine.

This is how I deal with the Sonic online communities. And by extension, the more fractured Sega online communities. And by extension, pretty much most online communities in general.

Pretty much, yeah. Besides, I got Linux-based PC gaming to still work on. I got Too Many PC games that I haven't gotten around to yet. I can wait on new stuff.

Yeah, I was noticing how inconsistent my runs have been when trying to build up a runner. And even if I end up with what I consider a disappointing setup, they're still beating out my previous more curated runners in raw stats.

But considering how many of those types of games I saw in the pages of Beep! Mega Drive successor "Sega Saturn Magazine", and how many of them ended up being reader favorites, the subject probably could've come up if we had the time (if they allowed me I would talk for ages about the Saturn)

Something I brought up when we discussed the first Sakura Taisen on the HG101 Podcast was how big of a deal Sakura Taisen was, but I didn't really go into the "gal game" stuff because I was more focused on what Sega considered "important" to their IP portfolio in a Sonic-lean era.

Yeah, I dunno how Special Week is second place there, I feel like I don't use her much. Probably because I've ran too many failed runs with her.

You got me curious about where I’m at.

Apparently, Librewolf might have some sort of setting that breaks picture uploads.

Treating Slordax with as much gravity as Doom II: Hell on Earth.

Finally, a hidden object game with double jumps and parrying.
