Unpopular opinion: Let the Final Fantasy series continue changing its formula per mainline entry.

Let other franchises cater to those who want turn-based combat or traditional JRPGs.

Man, Expedition 33 is still in my head, and it's been close to a month since i finished it.

A solid soundtrack coupled with a jaw-dropping story can go a long way and leave such a strong impression.

This game goes beyond being game of the year for me.

A lot of wheee today. Hopefully the whooo balance things out.

Clair obscure players will know 😆

#MarvelSnap: Thanos Wil get nerfed again. Community doesn't want to stop playing him despite the game having a lot of cool and viable decks. 😆

My review of Doom: The Dark Ages!

Id Software still got it as I love the new spin on the core gameplay.

Still Doom in essence. Slower than Eternal by default but a reasonable trade off due to what the Shield Saw brings to the table.

Highly recommended.

I finished with my Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 review draft.

My headache is going strong but I'm happy with what I put on the screen. Will revisit with rested eyes.

Spoiler: Don't skip this game

I just finished Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

Currently, it is my game of this generation.

What a story. What a final battle. What an ending.

I salute you @SandfallGames 👏

Currently over 4 hours into Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and I'm getting that gut feeling again where I think I'm experiencing something truly special.

The last time I felt this was when I played Metaphor: ReFantazio for the first time and was just going for hours.

Watching Marathon alpha streams and the environment textures are questionable at best.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is so far amazing.

But I find it silly that a completely new RPG IP, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, will suddenly have to face this behemoth of a game on its launch week.

The High Voltage game mode in Marvel Snap is the perfect place to feel dead inside when you play the game.

This game mode no longer adds any entertainment value for me; it's just a wall to overcome to get the new card and resources.

This is too much pop-ups for free cosmetics. #HogwartsLegacy

4th straight Infinite in #marvelsnap.

What's great about this card game is seeing so many different decks at the highest level that it never gets stale.

On top of this, all the new cards lately have been mostly great, making Snap's last few months its best form yet.

Played a good amount of #BluePrince. Fantastic game. I'm glad to know that I can still do basic math on the fly. 😆

#MarathontheGame not going F2P will rub players the wrong way.

With Bungie being with Sony, and with how bad Concord was received, I wouldn't be surprised that it's currently being compared to that, as it's still pretty fresh.

A solid alpha/beta test is key for any momentum.
April 13, 2025 at 12:34 AM
I'm really hopeful that Bungie's Marathon turns out to be a decent online shooter at launch.

I'm seriously itching at a balanced extraction shooter that isn't all that punishing, but still has the right amount of tension that makes your palms sweat.

I'm looking forward to the gameplay reveal!

Among all the titles I saw during the #Xbox developer session I attended, Kriegsfront Tactics is what I'm most excited for.

If you love the Front Mission series, keep an eye on this one.

80 bucks for a mario kart game.

I'm scared for how much it will be in the Philippines.

Are pinoys ready to shell out roughly 4.5k for a single switch 2 game?

Every time I spend one night with Hunt Showdown 1896, I'm reminded of how great of a shooter it is.

There's still nothing like it.

I'm not sure if it's me being older, but I get so triggered when people try to enter an elevator with people still trying to exit it.

It's just chaotic to witness 😆

I love hearing #MonsterHunterWilds grinders/vets complaining that there's nothing else to do after 50-75+ of Play.

It's a good problem. They didn't miss the mark. They now just clearly see it.
March 16, 2025 at 7:30 AM
Can't stop. Won't stop.

#monsterHunterWilds perfectly captures why I love this series.

- Entertaining campaign
- Satisfying gameplay loop
- Solid endgame foundation
- good monster lineup at launch
- Horrible UI (as usual)

I currently appreciate this game as much as Monster Hunter World.
March 10, 2025 at 2:17 AM
Death Stranding 2 On the Beach has a 10-minute trailer?

I'm good.

I think this game is best experienced with little to no knowledge about it. Hopefully I can keep it that way until June. Based on the reactions online, we are in for a wild ride.
March 10, 2025 at 1:14 AM
After 21 hours, I've completed #MonsterHunterWilds' tutorial.

The campaign is loads of fun. Filled with epic battles, entertaining cutscenes.

Nowhere close to done, but what a ride so far.
