Metroidvanias are either Protestant or Catholic. Castlevania? Catholic, of course. Metroid? Protestant. Blasphemous is Catholic. Dead Cells, Protestant.

Hollow Knight is Protestant, but Hollow Knight: Silksong is Catholic. That's why people are complaining the game is hard. Cause it's Catholic now.

Shuten Order’s take on the dating sim is absolutely savage, and it’s kind of amazing.

I apparently have a knack for playing ongoing games with playerbases that Can Not Be Normal. Dead By Daylight, Tekken 8, FFXIV...it's just this perpetual cycle of anger at the developers meshed with a seeming reluctance to take time off to mitigate any burnout.

I am looking to chat with people who have been disparagingly featured in Zack “Asmongold” Hoyt’s content.

I would like to see how this affected you, especially if you can provide ample receipts and clear timelines. Please signal boost this anywhere you’d like, as I’m not on Twitter anymore.

Catching up on Dawntrail MSQ and just hit the 7.2 trial. Once you get past the usual lack of "Please do the sensible thing with your Plot McGuffin" that is the WoL's forte, the story is fine. It's fine! This expansion has been nothing but wondering why people are so worked up about it.

It is -extremely- funny they wouldn't just give that trailer to Keighley. All this back and forth for years over who would get the Silksong release date trailer and it turns out they just dropped it on YouTube on their own.

I had forgotten that Ninja Gaiden Black 2 is effectively Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego only with significantly more dismemberment.

Rolled credits on Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, though there's still extra stuff to collect/unlock. Great game, really nails the feeling of the original trilogy. The Game Kitchen should do more action sidescrollers.

Weapons was a good time, glad I saw it in a crowded theatre opening night. The sketch comedy-to-horror pipeline lives

Played through "and Roger" today. Very moving, very rough to get through; does that thing very well where a narrative can be augmented via extremely simple mechanics used in a contextually savvy way. Go in blind if possible.

I know a lot of you have already heard or read about BDS Movement's call against Microsoft, and felt weird and bad about it all, but decided to move forward as normal because of some degree of ambiguity.

"What service is Microsoft providing?"

Here it is, clear as day. A direct line to death.

Sadly no donations today and I'm about 90% certain we've peaked. I'd still really love to get the final $1700 so if you can share or donate you'd have my undying friendship.
Another day of showing off my fantastic Elliott Stabler to remind you, we're 80% funded and just looking for the last $1700 to make this bill go bye bye. Any donations made today I'll do a movie review of your choice on TikTok!

It's a bit on the nose to have Armor King do an extended beatdown on Fahk, but Harada and Murray aren't ignorant to the playerbase either.

Wrapped up The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy last night. It's overstuffed, it feels like it's working constantly at cross-purposes to itself, and for the right kind of sicko it's going to be an easy GOTY frontrunner. Bring on the DLC routes.
