After Legend in the Mist dropped I’ve read more and more of it every day, and it’s bizarre to have this thought like “we did it, humans perfected the RPG engine. We can just make settings and small tweaks now” between my two favorites. Like any new RPG could happen and I’d prob just convert to these

We should not have trauma and suffering as much of our suffering is manufactured to benefit someone else. In this age, it is frightening to see how small people's circles are getting on the aggregate because of more forced suffering. How do we find holistic healing as a community?

If you excuse or ignore a friend’s harmful behavior for the sake of "loyalty,” you’re enabling abuse.
Coercive control, manipulation, and narcissistic abuse thrive when silence shields them. Loyalty shouldn’t come at the cost of someone else’s safety.

Just as a small reminder as a few people have asked me, I do take commissions. I’m currently booked up for September but I have spaces from October onwards.
Not sure if you want digital or traditional art? Lucky for you, I dabble in both. Take a looksie. 👇🏼

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth builds on Remake with faster pacing, richer character arcs, vast regions, and refined combat. Runs well on Steam Deck despite low settings.
Highlights include story, music, and exploration, but excessive mini-games and occasional navigation frustrations remain.

A little over a year ago, I was asked to be in a video game documentary about Red Dead Redemption 2 and how it inspired a history class at UTK by Dr. Tore Olsson.
It was an honor to take part alongside Tore and Roger Clark, who played Arthur Morgan in RDR2.
Check out the full doc below!

I always enjoy hanging out with @nathanl75.bsky.social and @avengermags.bsky.social talking about games. I always learn about a good variety of games and get to reflect about the larger impact of games. 😀
Always a joy to join the Amazing Gamers Podcast again with my friends @nathanl75.bsky.social and @whatcouldbeingbe.bsky.social!
We talked about Xenoblade, the role of a critic and some games we are looking forward to playing in the near future.

This was a fascinating conversation about history, literature, philosophy and gaming. It is good to know that I helped bridge you to podcasting and other opportunities. Games are a wonderful art form and it is always good to explore the art more. Thanks for having me on @nathanl75.bsky.social.

The only expectation setting going into the Switch 2 Direct is this:
1) Nintendo won't announce every game that will ever come to Switch 2 in 60 minutes
2) This is the first of many Switch 2 Directs
Besides that, dream big. With no software leaks, anything is possible.
