I have been musing about the ten games that define me, and I made it to number four in the time I allotted to myself yesterday. Quite frankly, I’m pleasantly surprised I got that far, and let’s see if I can get four more today. I doubt it, but know hope! Before I dive in,… Continue Reading
There’s a meme going around in Instagram (I saw it on a video, not on Insta itself) about posting an image of you in a book author pose surrounded by the ten games you’ve played that you would tell people if you wanted them to get to know you. It’s emphatically not a list of… Continue Reading
This is it–my true actual official review on Hades II (Supergiant Games). I will not write another post about this game. Ever! This, of course, is not true, but I am going to try my damnedest to make this the last post Here is yesterday’s post in which I mostly ranted about the ending of… Continue Reading
It’s been interesting to read the discourse on Hades II (Supergiant Games) because of the varying opinions. Most people agree that the gameplay is the star of the show.

I have one more post to write about the true true ending of Hades II (Supergiant Games), the epilogue, and the one side mission that infuriated me. Let’s start with the last one because I watched a video of how it went down before the patch, and it’s pretty much as I remember it from… Continue Reading
I’m back to talk more about Hades II (Supergiant Games), the true true ending, the epilogue, and the one side mission that infuriated me. All of these were things that I did again because of the change to the true ending, although I didn’t know if there would be a change to the latter two.… Continue Reading
I have gotten the true true ending of Hades II (Supergiant Games) and watched the credits roll (again), and I have many thoughts about it. My first thought is this.
