I have more to say about games I play/don’t play/the state of the industry. I mean, there’s a lot going on there. Most of it is extremely shitty at the moment. I wrote about it in yesterday’s post, but I have more to say today. It’s pretty fucking bleak. I can’t stop thinking about how… Continue Reading
Let’s talk more about games I don’t/can’t play. Games I don’t play is easy* enough. I don’t play turn-based. Except. Ah, I just did. Kind of. And not just dipped into, but platted it. The Spirit Lift (prettysmart games), a roguelike deck-builder that was turn-based. The few times I have played turn-based games, I was… Continue Reading
Yesterday, I was intending to write about what my next game might be. I did mention the demos I’ve played in the past few days, but then I wandered very far away from the main point as in my wont. I needed to talk about what would make me turn off a game, especially an… Continue Reading
In yesterday’s post, I intended to talk about what my next game might be. I veered wildly off into brand loyalty and how I don’t think I’ll be playing FromSoft games for much longer (and why I’m OK with that. Well, not ok, but resigned). I’ve played several demos, and I immediately uninstalled several. Why?… Continue Reading
I am at a loss as to what game to play next. This happens when I get obsessed with a game. In this case, The Spirit Lift (prettysmart games). I was obsessed with it, and I want to parse what kind of games sink their claws into me. I will break down the games into… Continue Reading
I 100%ed The Spriit Lift (prettysmart games) today. The immediate feeling I had was relief. Relief that I could quit playing the game and move on with my life. This is something I hate about trying to 100% a game, by the way. How much I hate the grind and tedium by the end of… Continue Reading
I have been obsessed with a game for the past three weeks or so. It’s called The Spirit Lift (prettysmart games), and there’s a demo on Steam. Full disclosure: My good friend, Ian, is on the marketing team, which is how I heard of it. It’s a roguelike/lite deck-building ’90s teen-starring game that has ghosts… Continue Reading
In yesterday’s post, I was talking about bras. Why? Because they are symbolic of societal norms that I consider pointless. I mentioned that so many women on the blog I was reading (and commenting) were so vehementy pro-bra, it surprised me. Not that they wore them or felt compelled to wear them, but that they… Continue Reading
I’ve been talking about gender for the last few posts and how I don’t get it. Now, I want to get more broad (heh) in general because that’s how I feel about so many things. A few years ago, I started chatting with someone in a Discord I’m in out of the main forums. In… Continue Reading
Let’s talk more about gender. I want to lay it all on the table so we can finally figure it out together. By the time I’m done, I will have figured out, definitively, what gender is. Once and for all! Obviously, that is said very tongue-in-cheek. If I did not have to think about gender… Continue Reading
