Finally tried Wylder & Duchess out properly tonight, both solo & in groups (these are solo clears). I didn't expect to be THIS torn in deciding a favorite class - Ironeye, Recluse, Revenant, Wylder & Duchess are all SO satisfying to play. (I had some good fun with Raider & Guardian, just less so.)

What a wild arc to hit at the start of pride month lmao 😍✨ (Mild one piece spoilers, very little context tho)

One of the things about myself for which I'm most grateful is how much dogs seem to love me for no reason 😍

For all the things I love about Elden Ring: Nightreign (and the list is long), the targeting drives me CRAAAAZYY. Across all FS games and souls-likes, NR vexingly seems to *least* understand what target I'm trying to select - and most resistant to me switching targets manually. 🤔

I'm so curious to see how The Witcher 4 feels to play. I loved my time with 3 - I deeply admire its world-building, characters, & many of its core mechanics - but never finished it, because the combat felt frustratingly bland. No doubt 4 will stun visually, but I'm SO curious about its gameplay. 🤔

Chatting in-person with a contractor today: Him: You're what, twenty-f— Me: I'm 32 Him: You– WHAT? Still got it. 😎 Getting carded w/ suspicion in my late 20s was mildly annoying, but I don't hate people not believing I'm 30+ 😂 If only my joints could get on board w/ me still being in my 20s 😭

Finally rolled credits on Nightreign this evening, on my first run of the day! What a terrific time. Now to practice other characters with lower personal stakes (though ofc still sweating for the sake of my teams).

I made a little prioritization guide based on my own experiences in Elden Ring: Nightreign. ⚔️ Feel free to use in whatever capacity it helps you - or, if you disagree and/or want to add something, I'd love to hear it! I just wanted to make a visual guide to organize my own thoughts in my brain. ✨

Slipping freshly shaved legs into freshly laundered fuzzy pajamas is one of my favorite forms of queer joy. Time for cozy game day with Ironeye, my beloved 😌✨

Of COURSE these bozos made it into this game... (marked for spoilers). I've had a pretty good time with Nightreign, though I can already feel it getting a liiiittle stale solo / with randoms.

Can't believe I got to play Nightreign with THE John Elden Ring

AT LAST, THE LEVEL 1 KHAZAN RUN IS COMPLETE. The late game spike in effort was real. 3rd most attemps: Hismar, 44 2nd most attempts: Reese, 59 And the MOST by FAR: Ozma, 167 😂

I'm too old for all nighters dude. 😂 I feel like a zombie today 🧟‍♀️ I tried to do some level 1 Ozma attempts last night but quickly realized that being awake for 39 hours is not conducive to perfect mechanics.

Idk why it capitalized NIGHTREIGN but I'm not mad about shouting it and I've been awake for about 35 hours so. There.

When I saw a "Being Me To Life Trailer" for NIGHTREIGN, I was sure it must be fan-made... But no, dude, fucking Nandai Namco was just like, "You know what? Evanescence fucks." And they were right. Fine, I'll buy your game, jeez! youtu.be/Ot6j_qqYQaM

Bold of you to assume I slept (I was coding all night, though I admit my ability to think clearly is ... deteriorating). SURELY MORE COFFEE WILL HELP HAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA

Searching for Smosh and getting an HR ad is actually very comically on-brand, if you're at all familiar with the lore. Anyway, just a reminder that I'm still alive - and still buried in my little code things. I promise I'll go back to more game & anime nerdposting soon. ✨

Dude, when I am done this app, I am going to take like a solid two days to do nothing but be a vegetable and use 0% of my brain. It has been fun in its way, but dear lord is my brain fried from so much learning on the fly.

And now, it is time to begin attempts of the final boss on my level 1 run of Khazan. This run has been a huge pain and a total blast all at once! 🔥 I was gonna put the game down after this, but I think I might do ONE LAST RUN, just to experience the Dual Wield at ... not level 1, for catharsis. 😂

Happy Saturday, gamers! Sorry I've been quieter - after unexpectedly landing & passing an interview for a pretty good job, I've now been tasked with building them an app as part of the candidacy process. It's due in the middle of next week, and is pretty robust, so I've kind of had my head down!

Working on Reese in the level 1 Khazan run. As you can see, it's going very well! In all seriousness, I've got her down to about 35% hp in phase 2, so it's certainly doable once I can get my reflections in P2 a bit more consistent... and don't miss the very first dodge of the fight. 😅

Serving me a tswift ad when I searched for peak kpop is so disrespectful honestly 😔

Another silly clip I forgot to share - I was curious if the game would actually let me do executions that would certainly kill me, and well... yep, it does! I wondered if it might kind of jankily put me on top of the ledge or something, but nope, the game just straight up lets you end yourself 😂

Had a funny experience with Bellerian on the level 1 Khazan run... something about how / when I shattered her shield seemed to break her AI, leaving her idle apart from certain moves (e.g. summoning, shield). I beat her this way, but went back and beat her again with her AI intact to make it right.

THE ONE PIECE MANGA IS SO GOOD DUDE I SLEPT ON PEAK HYPE FOR YEARS, HOW DARE I? Ahem... That is all. (Panel chosen for ambiguity)

Unexpected challenge of the level 1 Khazan run: Sergei & his preceding duo (22 attempts). Some elite enemies & even regular encounters have been a problem in this run, and this particular fight turned that issue up to 11! I was forced to resort to some shard healing & phantom form to cinch it. 😅

The Khazan level 1 run continues; properly learning Dual Wield has been fun! Elamein has so far been the biggest problem, taking 31 tries (Maluca a distant 2nd at 12), which I suspected she might be... Honestly, I wasn't sure I'd make it this far, and I'm terrified & excited for what's to come! 😅

As insanity takes me over, I've begun a level 1 run of The First Berserker: Khazan to finish out the 100% - and I'm most pleased to say that I got Viper on my first try. Future bosses will no doubt give me hell, so this feels nice ... for now. Also, Dual Wield is SUPER fun (if an adjustment)!

The perils of writing music as a Zelda soundtrack lover 😔

Introduce yourself with 4 games but it's the 90s 🕹️ N64 had some absolute bangers, and we had to get Pokemon in there to rep the Game Boy ☺️✨
