Everything critics say about Tears of the Kingdom is how I felt about Breath of the Wild so the only reason I’m shocked to see it is because I barely saw it in regards to BotW so I figured they weren’t the type.

Should go without saying but Pope Francis was the best catholic. I can’t really call myself catholic but I will miss him. R.I.P.

I don’t like posting politics cause it usually upsets me, but there is something very depressing about the fact that Trump didn’t even pass the “give me too much power bill” or anything. Everything bad he’s done has either been completely legal or it is illegal but that somehow didn’t matter.

Ultimates is a great book because every issue gets me excited to see epic super heroics and also slightly horrified to learn just how badly we’re fucked this time

You gotta love how Nintendo is the only non-indie studio crazy enough to make wheelchair basketball: the video game

Nintendo has officially decreed that GameCube is retro…I don’t know how to feel

Watched my first Ghibli movie, Princess Mononoke. Great time, I loved the score, animation was full of charm, simply heartfelt story. I am slightly disappointed, but that mostly has to do with my sky high expectations. I didn’t love it as much as I wanted to but it was still really good.

I kinda hate how outrage marketing works cause I normally don’t care about Assassin’s Creed but all the complaints have lead to me seeing it enough to be kinda interested. It also helps that I’m kinda, slightly, a weeb. Japan shiny, forgive me

My Pokémon starter tier lost. I may or may not be a bit of a hater on some fairly popular Pokémon.

Making fun of Musk’s failures isn’t even fun anymore cause the fucker had to go and join the government.

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

Playing Shadow Generations has not only helped resolve this, but more importantly further strengthened my belief that Shadow is much much cooler than Sonic. It’s not even close.

It’ll always be wrong to me that Korra gets a lot of flack for losing the past lives as if Unalaq wasn’t personally responsible. People act like it was a choice or she screwed up, she didn’t even know he could do that, no one did.

After replaying Metroid Zero Mission and Sonic Generations for the first time in years, I have come to the conclusion that I might genuinely just be much worse at games than I was in high school. I don’t know what to do with this info. Send help?

First day of real snow where I live and I get into a (minor) car crash. Always brush off all your windows folks, no exceptions.

Just finished Joe Sacco’s Palestine. It’s a comic book about his trip to Palestine and the stories he heard from the various locals. Although not always easy to read, it’s a great book that doesn’t sugarcoat any part of the struggle of living there. Highly recommend.

I need someone to pin point the exact moment Fromsoftware fell in love with the idea of making bosses 3 times bigger than you and twice as fast. Because that was a mistake. The game’s camera is consistently at its worse when it’s trying to fit an elephant moving around like a hyper dog on screen.

I think Bluesky is a great platform and I’m here to stay. However, a bookmark function would make the experience SO much better and much more functional for research/ information gathering, especially for reporters. Pretty please @support.bsky.team @bsky.app ?

Finished Shovel Knight: Plague of Shadows. I started it way back when it came out, but I had already burned myself out on Shovel Knight and I found it gimmicky so I never finished. It still feels like it’s trying a bit too much with the bombs but it’s fun. I died almost 50 times. I might suck.

Just finished DarkSouls 3 and I gotta say that it has to be the best DarkSouls because it’s the only one with a challenging final boss. The game’s also just a great story about the necessity of moving on rather than letting things slowly deteriorate into an unrecognizable monstrosity.

Sonic 3 thoughts: they beat Gerald in the funniest way possible. I give the movie a Jim Carrey + Shadow the Hedgehog /10

My thoughts on the Superman teaser are simple. Friend

Saw lotr War of the Rohirrim, not gonna lie it was sloppy as hell, really stupid, and needlessly panders to nostalgia, but it’s also impossible for me to hate a film where an old man boxes a giant monster and wins so I guess I liked it somehow.

It's legitimately great that Amir is being recognized for the good he's doing in the industry to help laid off gamedevs, but it's also like those "cute" stories about teachers working a second job to pay for school supplies. The root of the issue is still festering all over the industry.

This is an ad for the current Batgirl book, because it’s really fucking cool. There’s only 2 issues right now if you’re not already reading, do me a favor and fix that. You’ll be told just about everything you need to know about the character in the first few pages so no excuses.

I have just been informed that that Lego bio-pic movie (Piece by Piece) not only came out over a month ago, but also made no money, like at all. Budget of $16M struggled to make $10M. I’m irrationally upset considering I didn’t see it either. My bad bro, sorry to let you down.

Got a new TV and I feel like I have to replay every game I ever thought was pretty. God help me
