I decided November is for finishing GOTY contenders. I just started over my playthrough of Expedition 33 and I love the music so damn much. I am not verklempt, you’re verklempt.

I finished Silent Hill 2 Remake tonight and I finally get what all the hype was about. While I have played games with more scares I don’t know if I have played a horror survival game with better atmosphere giving a sense of general malaise brought forth from its decrepit liminal spaces. 10/10

Finished Still Wakes The Deep in 2 sittings. The type of horror game with a great story that is perfect for Halloween season. Honestly had a better character arc than any horror movie I’ve watched this month which is as much a compliment to game writing as an insult to modern horror movie writing.

I picked up Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines 2 and so far I am legit enjoying it. I think its biggest flaw is being associated as a sequel to Bloodlines and not just being a really good game in the World of Darkness.Without the attachment I am finding a lot to like so far.

Finished Resident Evil 7 and its DLC. Loved it. Cracked into Resident Evil 8 for the serious first time and really impressed by the… raytracing.

I’ve only dabbled wth Absolum and so far am loving it. If you are into brawlers it seems a must buy. Besides being interesting as a roguelike it has probably the best dodge and parry mechanics I have seen in a brawler and has combos on par with the best (*cough* River City Girls).

I am not trying to disparage Assassin’s Creed Shadows which I enjoyed but I have to say the fluidity playing Ghost of Yotei just puts it on a whole different level.

Finished my time with Hell is Us. Felt like I nearly 100%ed the game searching every nook and cranny. One of my favourites this year even if the game’s ending did not leave with very much closure.
9/10

So far Baby Steps has been a joy. I am often too busy laughing to be frustrated. By comparison I prefer it leaps and bounds over Getting Over it.

I am gonna be so sad when I am done with Hell is Us. I wish more games didn’t hold your hand the way it does with no maps and often requiring you to have a notepad on hand. To me that is the ideal experience for playing single player games. I am sure its story will stick with me for a long time.

no new pictures, where are you at mentally

Well I have made it to the midpoint of festival. I was too exhausted to see a movie after my work shift so I did some shopping therapy instead. I played a bunch of it on Gamepass but now I get to start over with one of my favourite games of 2025. I missed my lady Lune.

Day 2 down at Festival. Absolutely exhausted from being on my feet all day. Caught my first film which was Franz directed by Agnieszka Holland. I certainly liked it more than Indiewire. My hot reaction to it was a solid 4/5 stars.

What perfect album came out when you were 16?

This is peak gaming. Pure Cinema. #SnakeEater

Did some home decor today. Gonna paint 8 more in purple and green to complete the vaporwave aesthetic.

So… I caved. Apparently I got the last copy in the shop. #SnakeEater

Finally finished my first run through Elden Ring. If I had a mic I would drop it. Apparently my Elden Lord is getting married.
August 19, 2025 at 3:32 AM
I defeated Malenia. Without calling in help I may add. Of course I used a summon. I am not a freak. :p

But I think this deserves a celebratory pizza.
August 16, 2025 at 11:00 PM
Well… I made it to Malenia in Elden Ring. That was a humbling experience.
August 16, 2025 at 8:33 PM
Realized that I am almost done Elden Ring and have to backtrack and take on Malenia… god help me. At least I look swank AF.

Started playing Hell is Us’s demo and read it is from the Art Director of the last two Deus Ex games and is inspired by the Southern Reach trilogy. Also features a minimalist playstyle with no maps or markers. I am this game’s target audience. Sigh, just take my money already.

So I saw a lot of movies this week. Probably more than I went to all Summer. Here is a quick ratings rundown:
Eddington: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Naked Gun: ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
Together: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
War of the Worlds: 1/2 (Can I go lower?)
Weapons: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
August 7, 2025 at 11:59 PM
Honestly I don’t know if I have ever seen a movie on Letterboxd with a lower average rating. That is really something special for War of the Worlds.
August 6, 2025 at 2:03 AM
Saw Eddington as the first half of a double feature. I think I loved it? Kept thinking of the Catch-22 phrase “Just because you’re paranoid, does not mean they aren’t out to get you.” Feels like a 4.5/5 give or take. Ask me in the morning.
