Just me trying to find instructions on how to be a Steam Curator…goes to the Steam Curator page aaaaand immediately get hit with this toxic shit

Steam moderation is obviously bad, but does this really need to be the poster child for the program? Woof

My favorite thing about the long tail on Expedition 33 is going to be finding more and more of their art influences.

It’s a spot the difference through art history

I’ve been threatening this Avowed video for almost three months now and I’m happy to say…I’m still working on it.

I’m getting close to a solid first draft, but it’s alive and I cannot wait to get it out to you all. It’s gonna be such a wild ride.

Here’s a sneak peek for the curious:

The 4 games I promote the most:

- Prey (2017)
- “Deathloop”
- The Order: 1886 (a game I haven’t finished)
- Blasphemous

It is WILD to me that Nintendo is *raising* the price on this experience.

Notice the message in the lower right: “Some slowdown may be occurring.” You only write that line if you know it’s gonna happen. $230 now. For a rumble-less, ancient piece of tech that can’t paint a menu in sub-10 seconds

Hey if you leave a comment on a video like this do you not know that I can just remove it? Like this does nothing.

It’s so easy to feel that games and the outdoors don’t mix. That games are for hushed tones in dark rooms. And that’s sometimes true.

But it was so nice to hike 3 miles to just record a video about a video game i have mixed feelings about

New video coming soon.

Nintendo still has time to do the funniest thing

A soundtrack so good I went back in time to listen to it again

I know I’ve been doomscrolling more than usual but this seems…unrealistic

We’re pulling the winner of the Timecop giveaway tomorrow, so now’s your last chance!

Wait. I already own this game?? Welp. Time to go to work.

Hey guess what Blasphemous RIPS. I think I *understand* the Dark Souls Lorehound now
June 12, 2025 at 9:11 PM
Uh oh I think I found my metroidvania

I guess I’m not done writing videos about Avowed after all

The biggest episode of the 70% Complete Podcast is coming out this Thursday and it’s a doozy.

You’re not going to want to miss this one! Also, there’s a little surprise for listeners too, if you’re a physical media kind of person 👀

I’ve had some scripts piling up for recording, but I took the week off to spend A LOT of time designing and printing up a teleprompter!

Be prepared for altogether too much eye contact in future Content™️

I sure like the look of Tainted Grail. What an out of nowhere game

I’ve got 5+ games that A24 should be scooping up instead of Elden Ring
