If you haven't heard from me in the last few weeks, I'm not dead or ignoring you it's actually because I've been putting 50 hours a week into Deadlock relentlessly because they added a hot vampire lady that I've gotten really good with.

It was a human... it was Yoshi... not from Mario, at least.

One more year around the sun. Today's my birthday. Thinking about how grateful I am that I have such awesome friends in my life and I've got to do some amazing things in just the last few years. Here's to keeping that going.

Chuck passed away today. I'm not sure if I'll ever be okay again, but at least we were together.

🐉NEW VIDEO🐲🐟
It's been a little over a year since Infinite Wealth released and I found it left a genuine impression upon me, so much so, that I wanted to talk about it even after all this time. It took quite a few months of work, but I decided to make a video on it.

#7 - Army of Two (Replay)
Haven't played this game in a decade but decided to emulate it on RPCS3 alongside a friend out of the blue and we cruised through it in a couple of days. Not the greatest of games, but fun enough with a buddy.

#6 - Daredevil Season 2
I didn't quite like it as much as Season 1 but still found it to be an enjoyable experience. I actually really dig the Daredevil costume so having an entire season with him in it was rad plus The Punisher was awesome. Looking forward to The Defenders and then Season 3.

#5 - Blood Blockade Battlefront (Rewatch)
As good as I remember it being. As good as Trigun is, I think this is my favorite of Nightow's works. Leo as a protagonist is nothing short of awesome. He's not some super cool badass, but he's just cool in his own lil' weird way. Also White, my beloved.

#4 - Sniper Elite: Resistance
Played it on Game Pass with a friend. A relatively fun budget title that takes a lot from Sniper Elite 5. My only real complaint is they reuse the first mission but in reverse like an hour or two in with very minor changes, other than that, was fun.

#3 - Girls' Frontline 2: Admidst Wings of Grey
Odd cliffhanger aside, I don't get why this is an actual event. I know Daiyan's event underwent several rewrites in CN but this feels like it should be essential to the story. Still though, has some of my favorite scenes in the story thus far.

#2 - Daredevil (Season 1) - Rewatch
I watched this back when it first came out but never continued past it, decided to rewatch it and still found it great. I genuinely think this is some of my favorite Marvel content and am excited to see the rest of the series finally.

#1 - Ys X: Nordics
Been a while since I've actually beaten an Ys game. While I tend to find them fun, some of them felt like an uphill climb to beat but not this one! It was fun, and the story was really good, but placing it right after Ys 2 is a really really weird decision to me.

48) Raiders of the Lost Ark
Decided to start rewatching upon beating the Great Circle. Still such a phenomenal film. It was one of the first films I ever saw growing up. Makes me miss my dad quite a bit, honestly.

47) Sonic the Hedgehog 3
Saw this on Christmas night and honestly? If I was eight years old this would've been my favorite movie ever made. I'm 25 instead so I think it's just pretty good. Seeing (and hearing) callbacks to Sonic Adventure 2 made me a lil' emotional.
