Capcom, I absolutely understand everything you're doing, but I genuinely checked my email during the time it takes Onimusha's final boss to do a punisher move, and by only the second try I was motivated to do so

I don't know where we are with Death Stranding 2 spoilers a year out but I have to report publicly that when this title card came I up, I was formally Whooping and Hollering

look, the *rapid* ascent of the Marathon video is of course lovely because I'm deeply proud of it, and of course yes I have a vested financial interest in any of my videos popping off, but most importantly I have *dreamed* of it surpassing the Rebirth video so I am not seen as an FF Youtuber

Anyway, from the time between production and life responsibilities: Star Wars Zero Company is an all-timer, Onimusha has my favorite combat system in years, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 is genuinely my new Autumn Comfort Game. Video games are so so so good.

YT Studio says this video has doubled views to at like 85k (!!!) right now, which even with YT's new view calculations is a massive leap. I'm immensely proud of this piece, and have held out hope it would really take off. Thank you for those who have watched, and please share if you like it!

As someone with zero Rambo or Robocop experience and limited Terminator experience, this was both a uniquely evocative exploration of some 80s tentpole franchises AND ALSO a wild way of having 80s tentpoles explained to me

No matter how PHYSINT turns out this is an L for the history books and this detail is the killer. It was looking like "Xbox cut a bigger check," but "Sony was going to cancel New Metal Gear Solid and Xbox saved them" is so much worse. Kojipro's upcoming slate is now fully Xbox exclusive. Wow.

it is so darkly funny that I am stuck in a cycle of "make thing" -> engage with replies -> build up armor for detractors -> disappear to make thing -> armor to detractors decays. I've only had this public a platform for about 5 months so it's normal I'm not used to it, but I'd like to be used to it!

finally had the time to try the Onimusha demo but I adored it? you can get far if the act of pressing buttons feels and looks incredible potentially hot take: the room for skill in mechanics (difficulty TBD) and deliberate, artsy pace makes me think this would be a cool template if DMC1 were remade

I think so far I'm generally pretty good at intros + outros because I understand how essential those are for engagement and takeaway, and there is a cut 12 seconds into the next video that is such a left hook it makes me giddy

Great first day of the con, so much love to everyone met, old and new. ZZZ shoot was fun, I ache to be more in touch with that fandom. Hoping to have an earlier start tomorrow, hoping I can resist the urge to eat a box of Krispy Kreme before putting a LaDS costume on

Koji Fox localization panel was an absolute joy, and so glad to see it wasn’t just about XIV and so materially about the work and his history with it. Such a unique guy in game dev, I could watch him read a phone book
