Hachi-roku is now my favorite thing to hear.

Forza 6 infected me. I played it for like 2 hours then watched the entirety of MF Ghost. Now I'm starting the Initial D anime which is long af and looming up how long it takes to beat Racing Lagoon, a ps1 Squaresoft Japanese racing RPG.

Haven't been hooked on a game since I finished Persona 3. Might fuck around and load up my P5 save I left off right before entering the final dungeon.

Legitimately curious how people are stumbling across so many AI bands on Spotify. 21/30 bands on my Discover Weekly playlist are names I recognize. 8/30 unknown bands had a history of releases, a band pic, and tour dates. 1/30 had all new music, no picture, no tour, sus vibe Oh... I see.

Sometimes I ask my online homies questions about what they're playing even if I'm not interested in the game just so they can talk about shit they think is cool.

One of the worst parts about being an adult is the subtle and not so subtle political topics people bring up. I'm left-leaning but don't talk politics, multiple right-leaning co-workers and friends bring up insane topics that I'd never engage with simply assuming I'm on their side. It sucks.

Never googling anything about anime I'm actively watching again. Tried to see if lip syncing errors in Stein's Gate was a common occurrence and saw a reddit thread with a spoiler as a top result. Now I know a bit about an upcoming twist 😩

It's my curse to see "first time streaming Dark Souls" on Twitch, check out their stream, watch them talk for 10 minutes without starting the game, then I close it out. This has happened to me 3 times this week and I think I'm done trying to watch new streamers.

I've barely played anything new this year. I didn't finish Metaphor Refantazio til March, then I replayed all of Elden Ring and the Dark Souls trilogy, then Octopath 2. The only 2025 game I've truly enjoyed to completion is Digimon Story Time Stranger.

My Spotify Wrapped is generally warped because my alarm clock song is Secret of the Forest and I listen to the same Playlist in the shower every morning - but unsurprisingly Eidola is my #1 for multiple years in a row.

Very interested to hear people talk about Clair Obscur in GOTY discussions, namely the pacing and connection to characters. Might be time to listen to the @minnmax.com Deepest Dive and get a preview.

Yesterday it was so cold in the office I work at that they started giving out handwarmers. An office with computers, not a warehouse. Nasty work acknowledging how uncomfortable is but not allowing people to WFH.

I have mixed feelings on the villain of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 but damn this is one of the best feeling games I've ever played. Traversal has never felt this good and the cinematic combat finishers are tops. The seamless transition between gameplay and cutscenes at times are awesome.

Once again my desire to listen to music while playing a multiplayer game is being challenged by also wanting to be social. I might need to start up FFXIV again since I don't know anyone who plays it. Weird, I know.

I hate that I don't see what everyone else does in Clair Obscur Expedition 33. Maybe I played it in the wrong state of mind. I liked it well enough but didn't care enough about the characters to finish it. And I thought the soundtrack was fine, but it didn't have me looking up the tracks on YouTube.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is amaxing when you're doing Spider-Man stuff, but I'm not enjoying all of the padding. It's reminding me a lot of FF7 Rebirth. Some of the best core gameplay ever made surrounded by boring talking segments and mini-games. I wish there were more cutscenes so I could skip them.

Today a lady at the eye doctor scoffed when I said I buy lenses from a 3rd party due to cost. Ensured me we could find glasses that would cost me minimally out of pocket. Quotes me for $245, realizes it's wrong, I leave, then calls me later to say it's $135. My last pair from Zenni was $63.

Web slinging from rooftops to streets fighting baddies and unlocking costumes in Spider-Man 2 to slowly walking around a lab listening to people talk about things I couldn't care less about I'd quite the whiplash. They don't count as cutscenes and can't be skipped.

Trying to play Borderlands 4 for the first time since launch and it crashed while compiling shaders. Then when it finished compiling shaders and I hit continue, it had to compile shaders AGAIN in a loading screen. This is madness.

This is the hardest video game cover I've ever heard. Toby Fox snapped with the composition and GlitchxCity and Scottay elevated it to unbelievable heights. The Mitsuda lick, keys, the shredding, the djenty chugs, the dance section. It's the best. youtu.be/JKnKs4mgO9E?...

I REALLY want to play a medieval game with heavy religious themes and Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 seems to be a perfect fit but I also don't want to spend an entire month or longer on one game. I wish I could wipe my brain and play Pentiment again.
