I'm going to be using this platform to post general thoughts and opinions pertaining to games I'm either actively playing, or those I feel the need to comment on. I expect to be shouting into the void, but hey, it's a creative outlet, and maybe the void will holler back every now and then.
Fire Emblem Heroes is adding Legendary Black Knight. This is essentially Nintendo showing up at my house brandishing a knife and a comically large burlap sack with a "$" on it.

Now, I'm not saying I -support- the idea, but if Cygames showed up behind them, carrying a derringer and Grand Vaseraga...

Masahiro Sakurai is one of the only individuals on this planet who is still capable of making me giddy for a new game release. Attach his name to a short, cinematic trailer for a sequel to Kirby's Air Ride, and I'm sold.

I really hope he's taking care of himself, though.

[Warframe] I haven't had an opportunity to truly sink my teeth into the Techrot Encore update thanks to Monster Hunter and Xenoblade X conspiring to take up all of my time, but I've been having fun with what I have had an opportunity to try.

Namely, I'm very happy with how Atlas emerged from it.

Better get a Weegpost out there to celebrate the launch of Monster Hunter Wilds.

[Skyrim] Ever had one of those moments where you do something pretty cool and want to show the world, but you know that the moment you make a big deal out of it, it ceases to be as cool?

Fortunately, my standards of cool are subterranean.

[Warframe] A Thread About Primed Sure Footed

I could also refer to this as my public self-immolation, because I'm going to be giving my opinion on why it being -really good- is kind of -really bad-.

I haven't had heat for weeks because Amerigas can't get their shit together. If you're considering using them, don't.

Skyrim's looking a bit different today.

[Warframe] Scarab Shell and Jumping

Inaros can't jump while building his Scarab Shell. However, if you activate it while in the air and with the ability to aerial jump (falling off a ledge, performing a ground jump, etc.) you retain the ability to aerial jump during it.

It's odd to me that, as quite the sucker for the first three Paper Mario games, it has taken me as long as it has to begin playing the Switch port of TTYD. Smooth sailing so far, as to be expected, but I do miss the satisfying feel of the GCN's joystick snapping back when performing hammer attacks.

Someday, I will get back to playing games that bring me a sense of joy for their stories and consistently polished experiences, instead of rummaging through the same handful of dopamine trashcans that demand all of my time.

That ain't happening today, though. Palworld, GranBlue and Warframe, ho!

[Warframe] A Thread About Arcane Pistoleer

Arcane Pistoleer is a Warframe Arcane that has a 60% chance of +17% ammo efficiency for 12 seconds upon secondary headshot kill, per rank. At Rank 5, this results in full ammo efficiency, meaning your shots don't consume ammo and you don't need to reload.

Merry Christmas to the lords from Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. Hector got to spend time with his brother, Lyn got a long range anti-tank rifle and Eliwood got fucked.

[Warframe] Atlas: Analysis

My last Warframe post was about a frame I was relatively inexperienced with. This time, I'm going the opposite route and covering one of my all-time favorites: Atlas. If what you want out of a character is to apply one brain cell and press one button, look no further.

I bought this card and improved it with a marker.

Apparently "skull" was adapted from a norse word. It did seem a bit too metal to have been an english one.

Who needs a coat rack when you've got a perfectly good floor?

I've been playing Voices of the Void lately. It's a cozy game where you maintain and operate a satellite array as you search for signals in space.

It's also a game where you get griefed by invisible cats, kidnapped by ghosts and occasionally the local Wendigos pay you in bones. You know, the usual.

[Warframe] Lavos: First Impressions

Having largely skipped over Lavos when he first launched, I've spent the last few days tinkering with his kit. He's a frame I can safely recommend to those who enjoy a high amount of interaction.

I am on social media now. This is probably a mistake. Do not like or follow this.
