Still thinking about Clair Obscur, the game that entered into a staring contest with maximalism and won

I was born and raised in Oregon and I have always believed down to my core that it's mega nasty and bad that we celebrate the whale being blown up

There was a clear call to action in the Undertale 10th anniversary: nurture the creativity and goodness within and share it to build community. Raising $300k+ for MSF while showcasing thousands of people’s memories; Toby crediting every contributor while exhorting players to find their own meaning.

I believe that the people who know me personally understand I'm a deeply moral/caring person who does, in fact, give a shit about things like environmentalism/labor/social justice/etc. I am here because I think we're doing it right. But doubts are good; check out our FAQ: www.hiddendoor.co/help/faq

I'm not sure these lists are anything other than a victory lap for the ego, but I do think this one explains a lot about me, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Last night I biked across town to pick up my order from the new Final Fantasy-themed Magic set. It was a lovely ride. Sometimes I worry I’m not living the life that someone in their late 30s ought to be living, but I’m making twelve-year-old Nick very proud, and I think that’s worth a lot, actually.

Google killed the concept of the blank canvas and now I can't even think with all this garbage here.

the first 15 minutes of Dragon Age: The Veilguard make quite an impression

For me, it’s @sunsetvisitor.bsky.social’s 1000xRESIST. I’m a few hours in and I love a lot about it, but I think my favorite thing is how much it trusts the player to pick up on its story and themes. So many games have bloated, rote exposition, but this is a deft and ambitious piece of storytelling.

I just finished Lorelei and the Laser Eyes at 100% completion. What can I say? It’s brilliant. It interweaves design, narrative, and theme better than just about any other game. I just worry it’ll get overlooked in a market under the thrall of Mammon, a risk its creators clearly foresaw. Play it!
