Game industry stagnation isn’t that bad honestly. I don’t need a new persona/xenoblade/ff every 1.5 years. Some games do follow that schedule today (trails/atelier) and it’s too much. Every 5 years is good

Data on where games put their title text in my home menu: center top: 48 center middle: 38 center bottom: 47 uncentered + corner: 12 no text, image only: 5

Final ranking: TSA > 2 > 3 > 1

Bicycle seat mounts were designed by satan and you can't convince me otherwise. Never doing that again

How tf are Xenoblade X’s load times so fast

It really says a lot about Xenoblade that a remaster of the worst game of the series can generate this much hype and goodwill

Fantasian part 2 feels like a constant series of “omg it’s finally over. thank god I never have to do *that* again” moments. This dumb cute little diorama game is more stressful than Strange Journey

Tunic is great but it should also be a turning point to realize maybe we shouldn’t put Dark Souls into literally everything

Fantasian is what the Tokyo RPG Factory trilogy could have been

No More Heroes 1 is so bad lmao, it feels like I’m in a unity asset store gta template. Hope 2 & 3 are better

If your video game has the word Origins in the title you need to stop and make a new franchise
