I love Dark Souls games. I don’t think that’s a surprise to anyone who knows me. Back when I first started got into them, I played them years after they came out. That meant I normally knew the twists and turns before I played them. I didn’t have a PS4 so I thought I would… Continue Reading
Blogging is dead, RIP, blogging. I’ve known this for a few years, but I’ve resisted it because writing is my medium. I can say things in writing I can’t vocally and I’m much smoother in the delivery, as well. Obviously, it’s easier to form a coherent thought and I can go back and polish what… Continue Reading
I love indie games. I could leave that as the whole post, but I won’t. I like me some Triple A games, obviously, as Dark Souls III is my favorite game of all time, but overall, I like indies better. There are Night in the Woods (Infinite Fall), Hades (Supergiant Games), Spiritfarer (Thunder Lotus Games)… Continue Reading
2021 sucked and I cannot see the backend of it soon enough. Now, to be fair, I came back from the dead twice–which is a good thing. The fact that I’m going to see 2022 is a plus in and of itself. I made this observation soon after exiting the hospital. Before my medical trauma,… Continue Reading
I’ve done several posts for my games of the year. I was ready to do one last award when I was reminded of another game that I played earlier this year. I really thought it was last year–or rather, I had completely forgotten it was this year. Because, you see, the first half of the… Continue Reading
All right. We’re at the end of the year (nearly) and at the end of my award posts (nearly). I have three awards left to give (nearly) in a year that defies definition. The fact that I am here to write this is amazing in and of itself. I can’t overemphasize this point enough–I should… Continue Reading
Well, well, well. So we meet again. As per usual, I’ve dragged out my awards posts because I can. As I explained in the previous post. my gaming was off this year for one big reason–I spent two weeks in September in the hospital and then months after recovering. Now, in mid-December, I’m mostly better.… Continue Reading
Yesterday, I was musing about the game awards I was going to give out this year, a year that was unlike any other. Yes, the pandemic was part of it, and not my favorite part. I’ll be honest with you. It’s very much not my favorite part of this year. But, there was also the… Continue Reading
For the past few years, I’ve had a Game of the Year post–well, several posts every year. I’m careful not to say best game of the year because it’s not that. I have no interest in debating the theoretically objective best game of the year (which is always subjective) and I rarely play the games… Continue Reading
Ever since coming home from the hospital, I’ve been relying on old games to bring me comfort. I still dip into Cozy Grove (Spry Fox) on the daily, but there’s not much to do. I really appreciate that they add new content every season and a season-appropriate festival every quarter. I’m eager to see what… Continue Reading
