I make funny videos about bad stuff in the video game industry. 🟡
and who could forget this classic: “I do not consider you to be truly alive. Ergo, I will not be guilty of murder if I kill you.” Ah, moral relativism.

“I’m gonna be a blitzball when I grow up” — my personal favorite of the bunch. 10/10 would buy this on a bookmark, t-shirt, or bumper sticker 💸

“I dreamt I was a moron” — a classic, great for getting you into the mood with a good book 🐑

I saw this bookmark on reddit with a Final Fantasy themed bookmark, and it got me thinking: what other quotes from the series would be good bookmarks?

It wasn’t until I introduced my little brother to the series that I started to “get it”

He was gonna see all that blood and violence and stuff eventually anyway

Now he’ll be ready for it when it pops up in Animal Crossing

No matter how much I try to romance this guy he just keeps saying “eheheHHhehe thirsty undead …” ??????

When I was a kid one of my friends was CONVINCED that capturing missingno would delete your save data. I, however, was not so sure…

I can’t wait to show my little brother the scene with Algus and Tietra at Fort Zeakden. He’s gonna love how that goes.

Self reporting time:I just had an intense, violent reaction to seeing this fan’s mocked up lego set for Final Fantasy Tactics

Shout out to Francis Coulombe for simultaneously making me want to brush my teeth more, but also make me have a panic attack for even thinking about it

10/10 my indie lovecraftian horror game of the year
August 19, 2025 at 9:41 PM
I don’t normally play horror games, but I’ve been COMPLETELY charmed by Look Outside

This game’s got it all: rat babies, flesh monsters, and shady characters spying on me while I sleep. Really takes me back to my childhood 🤷

Big agree, and I think it's safe to say it has ruined other gaming menus / UIs for me. The amount of art on display is wild, and sometimes I just zone out looking at the characters.

If you haven't played FF7 or FF9 with mods (7th Heaven & Moguri, respectively) they're definitely worth considering.

They breathe life into those games while respecting / preserving the original vision!🔥

From one YouTube video-essay-person to another, I can tell you put a ton of work into this. Big kudos Moomba! 👏

While watching your video, I couldn't help but think about the Mario x Rabbids game that came out a couple years ago. I enjoyed it, but also found the "overly cute chaos" grating. 😅

The more important question:

When will Nintendo acknowledge and take action against the *pile* of broken games, useless apps, and blatant content theft going on within its eShop ecosystem?

(Ssearching for "alarm clock" or "calculator" yields dozens of 'games' that are permanently 'on-sale'.)

I'm so glad to that Backrooms Horror Escape has FINALLY been de-listed from the Nintendo eShop.

It's wild that it took several days and the creator going to social media to get the stolen content pulled down, but at least they can move on (for now).

To summarize? This game is great, and it's a shame that it was overlooked last year (snubbed virtually everywhere for indie debut).

Check it out on Steam if you're a fan of creepy / lovecraftian stuff in a CRPG package. ✌️

The graphics are an awesome throwback to the early days of gaming and I love me some top-down strategy.

I'm not going to lie and say that it's as complex as something like Final Fantasy Tactics (it's not), but there's quite a few interesting classes and spells / abilities to play around with.

Is it okay if I turn into "that guy" for a sec and gush about a game I've been playing? It's SKALD! (thread)

If you're a fan of old-school style CRPGs, you seriously owe it to yourself to check this one out. 1/3

I've always had a soft spot for the pixel art / graphics of Final Fantasy Tactics. Welp ... time for a replay. 😂

Woke up to see a headline this morning that Sony has DMCA'd the #Bloodborne 60fps patch:

Trying to subdue the flames coming out of my ears, I will say that some of the comments on reddit were good for a laugh 😅

There were SO many amazing blurbs this year, it's hard to pick my favorite.

That said, I *really* enjoyed @austinrryan.bsky.social's write up for @ssbmagi.bsky.social – "[She] made the top 10 bleed" got me snapping YES! at my computer screen 😂
