Ghost of Tsushima–A Quick Look, part four

This is my fourth post on Ghost of Tsushima (Sucker Punch Productions). I know that seems like a lot for a quick look, but it’s not–at least not for me. Also, I’ve put in over 16 hours of gameplay, so four post doesn’t seem like that many. In the last post, I mostly talked about… Continue Reading

Ghost of Tsushima–A Quick Look, part three

I’m on part three of my ‘quick look’ at Ghost of Tsushima (Sucker Punch Productions). In yesterday’s post, I talked about my difficulty with the combat. Before I go on with that, I want to acknowledge that there is an accessibility tab in the options menu. I said yesterday that Sucker Punch doesn’t seem to… Continue Reading

Ghost of Tsushima–A Quick Look, part two

I have more to say about Ghost of Tsushima (Sucker Punch Productions). Here is my last (first) post about the game. I was musing about the combat when I wrapped up the first post on this game. I don’t love it, but I know that is me rather than the game. Or rather, it’s my… Continue Reading

Nixxes Software did the port, and, apparently, they… Continue Reading

Genderblender, not gender bender

Talking more about gender. And about dating. Because that’s where I ended up in the last post. And why I am done with cishet white dudes. I had an argument decades ago with a white dude about reading material. This was when I first realized that I was Taiwanese American and wanted to read literature… Continue Reading

Have a holly, jolly–oh stop it

I’m in a pensive mood. Not just because of the holidays, but just because of gestures at the world all around. There are people who believe that voting for that man is ‘just politics’ and why would someone end a friendship/family relationship over ‘just politics’? And why are we (those on the left) being soooooooooooooo intolerant? Aren’t… Continue Reading

More pensive thoughts this holiday

It’s Black Friday, y’all. When did this become such a thing? I’ve never been a shopping kind of person, so I don’t understand why this is such a big deal to people. Then again, I also am not someone who is heavily influenced by marketing. I am not loyal to brands. I mean, if something… Continue Reading
