Chris, being a smoker is such an important detail for his character for me, just not being able to kick the habit.

As I was getting ready this morning, I looked at my game shelf and thought.....I don't think there has ever been a better steel case than Bioshock. The rust and metal feel both old and on theme and really represents the world of Rapture and its decay.

I've been loving drawing and designing fan covers and fan posters for games/comics. I would LOVE to put my name out there if there are any indie devs or people looking for a artist who, my dm and commissions are open, and I would love to throw my hat in the ring 😊

It's my 4-year HRT anniversary ❤️ This last year, especially, I see me in my most comfortable self! Officially changed name, and IDs to Samantha, been living full time as myself and haven't been misgender by anyone in public once. It's been awesome, and I'm so happy where I am now 💗😊

Honestly......Devil May Cry 3 is maybe the best intro for any action game ever, GET THE BLOOD PUMPING!

13. CULTIC It's just one most satisfying boomer shooter put there, and it's NOT EVEN CLOSE! Fully blown away by the world and the DLCs and the competence of the horror moments also.

12. A Big Walk ......you may cry....IM NOT LYING. Best puzzle game I've played for a hot minute.

11. Assassins Creed Black Flag Resync YES YES YES! step in the right direction and hope that future titles and remakes look at what this game got right. ESPECIALLY in the movement.

9. 007 First Light It's okay, LIKE ITS GOOD fun and makes you feel like you're making it up as you go in the best ways. Just didn't scratch the itch I was expecting.

8. Assassins Creed Bloodlines Yeah this one is a wildcard, but I was just thinking how much I LOVE AC1 but never played Bloodlines.... Maybe nostalgia for simple times, but I really enjoyed it's loop and smallness.

8. PRAGMATA (GOTY) I didn't really look onto this game, I'm a CAPCOM girly but wasn't too sure or care, but I saw it was getting hyped, and I needed to try...... It's such a great concept and well told hopeful story and just beautiful....still my game of the year 😭😭❤️

7. Cairn WHAT A GAME! Loved the mental journey of this one and the flawed relentlessness of Aava, I saw a lot of me in her honestly.

4. Eclipsium Saw this through a recommendation comment, and it was so odd and fascinating. It definitely unnerved me. Plus, just an easy 2 hour experience

2. Easy Delivery Co After Souls it was exactly what I was looking for, plus for my ROG Ally it was exactly what I need and it's premise and mystery hooked me good!

I thought I should catalogue the games I beat in 2026 1. Dark souls 1,2,3 For the first time, I finally jumped blind for most of these games, and it clicked in a way DS1 never did before! I love DS2 in the oddest ways, but it's definitely my favourite out the 3 for its qualities.

It's not that deep but really cool. In Splinter cell conviction coop you play these guys, Russian and US, and you work together and espionage stuff. But the last mission, you're each other's targets and gotta out stealth the other! It's awesome because you get used to each other's play style.

I don't know who needs to hear this as an artist! Art can be as accessible as you want to make it I promise. find what works for you, Toys, photomode, GMOD, and model apps Practice,learn, and use references and mostly have fun! There is no shame in finding out what does and DOESN'T work for you ❤️
