I remember reading somewhere that the original creator behind it got pissed off when he found out people were drawing yuri fanart of her

I'm gonna open this video and halfway through someone's gonna say a line like "Using my new Windows 11(tm) powered computer, I'm able to make stunning looking effects with ease" and I'm gonna shut it off then and there

I don't know how to put it into words, but it has the same vibe to me as when you google some tech support issue and you get a site called something like "EZFix" titled "How to solve X issue" and then you scroll down and you see "Step 1: install EZFix"

Saw a cool looking YouTube video on my timeline abut different generations of VFX artists and I was gonna watch it but right before I clicked on the video I glanced down at the channel And it was from Windows And my interest just immediately plummeted. Could not tell you why.

Did Petra even really "fizzle out"? She had a good like month or two of consistent fanart

True, but I have a sneaking suspicion they're not drawing these fanarts

I want to give people the benefit of the doubt, but I think it's really really hard to be truly "unaware" of Rowling and her bullshit at this point

Game also has a bunch of extra challenges including a randomizer mode, which I think is sick My singular major complaint is that I think the final boss goes on a little too long (the entire fight is like 8 or 9 phases, and one of them is hard as shit), but it's still a fun fight regardless

Zexion Probably the best Metroid game out there. You can tell from every aspect that this was made by someone who knows their shit and did their homework Some really fun upgrades as well, one of which I don't think I've seen before Music is great too, idk not much to say aside from good ass game

LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga That one ship mission where you have to fly into the giant asteroid worm terrified me as a kid. I always got scared that one day it wouldn't open its mouth again and I'd be trapped in there forever

Maybe it's just me but I always have this weird fear of these sounds feeling noticeably "fake" retro even though it's the same waveforms at their core

OnlySmiles @onlysmiles.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
Making chiptune sounds always feels like I'm walking a thin line between "believably sounds like something that would appear in a Nintendo game" and "Mario parody flash game from 2011" and that line is deceptively hard to walk

I'm so conflicted on Motorslice because I was so excited to play it but everything I've heard about it since it released basically amounts to "Yeah, that apple is full of poison. It's gonna be the most delicious apple you've ever eaten but you're gonna have to get through the poison"

Been meaning to come back to Ball Pit at some point, that game had a grip on me mentally for a solid month

Not even kidding I might go back tomorrow and pick up Rhythm Heaven

Exactly, I appreciate that Marvel is actually mixing things up for a change (as much as MoM has its issues, I liked how bold it was), but also let's be real here you're a Marvel movie. You're not "Grave of the Fireflies"

I don't care if you kill everyone, you don't get to call an Avengers movie "one of the darkest movies ever made"

Left for 3 hours to get dinner while my internet came back and went to a GameStop where I had the choice between this or Rhythm Heaven for like $20 cheaper and I'm gonna be honest the more I'm sitting on this, the more I feel like I picked wrong

OnlySmiles @onlysmiles.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
The best way I can describe it is that it's like a cross between Risk of Rain 2 and Vampire Survivors It's surprisingly really well made for that description

Can't even play Remake while I wait for the internet to come back up

I took this picture 30 minutes ago and went to do other things It's gone up ~600 MB

Went to redownload the PS5 version of Remake to play through the DLC and 🫠

This unironically just sold me on it

I also get to play the Intergrade content for the first time as well, so that'll be really interesting
110
OnlySmiles @onlysmiles.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
Even so, I somehow finished this ~10 hours faster than the first time, which is weird because I feel like I took things pretty slow with this playthrough, so I don't know what I could've spent *that much* more time doing

OnlySmiles @onlysmiles.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
Funny enough, I actually ended up missing a lot of the same stuff the second time around (I missed one weapon in both playthroughs and it was the same one), though I did manage to get the Chocobo/Moogle materia this time which was a fun side adventure

OnlySmiles @onlysmiles.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
Also the first time I've played this since playing FF7 proper, and there was a LOT I didn't pick up the first time around because of that. There were even some scenes where the context was almost entirely changed from my first playthrough with that knowledge.

Final Fantasy VII Remake (Replay) It feels so good to play this game again, I knew there were gonna be holes in my memory since I played it 6 years ago but I forgot way more than I expected, especially towards the back half of the game

I remember like 2 years ago I made a comment on Reddit about how "people didn't learn their lesson from NFT's" and got immediately bombarded with people telling me that "no it's different this time, you don't know what you're talking about" and my favorite "well, NFT's didn't have any practical use"

Saw a clip from FF16 today and now I want to replay it again but that would mean replaying FF16

Full list of songs that have been permanently ruined for me as a result of countless hours playing Rayman Legends as a kid to where I can't hear it normally: -Black Betty List of songs that my gym has in seemingly every single one of its playlists and so I get to hear during most of my workouts -Bl

Strange Jigsaws Very cute puzzle game (literally), reminds me of "The Witness" in all the best ways Some of the puzzles feel a *little* hard to wrap my head around, but overall they were really good Also I love the fact that the dev had his 7 year old kid draw up puzzles which was adorable 8/10

Also this one (which is arguably even cooler) The midair backflip into the wallkick is just pure dopamine
