Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Dawg, the “we should use AI for piracy” is not the W you think it is… 110
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 10/10/2026I am unironically playing the Kingdom Hearts games for the story. At least for this playthrough….so I’m playing on easy. 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I'd never played Birth by Sleep. This series is so fucking stupid.static.klipy.comI Don'T Care I Love It Will FerrellAlt: I Don'T Care I Love It Will Ferrell 000
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Have to wonder what sort of sales expectations Ubi has for these S2 ports, because they keep doing them… 000
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Measured take; EDF "feels" like the type of game that's made for Switch 2 (or other handhelds). I'm glad it got ported, and I'd love for other games in the series to come. 110
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I'm not sure what part of this tweet is the most frustrating... That the guy clearly doesn't know what marketing is, that this awful info graph is clearly AI, or that they said Mixtape was "nothing special". 140
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Randomly awake @ 4am today. On a Friday. Is this the meaning of Kingdom Hearts. 000
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I am currently failing as a parent by exposing my child to Kingdom Hearts. 020
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Glad I watched that. Everything will make more sense now (it will not). On to the real stuff now… 000
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Back from the Gym. Time to finish whatever the fuck this Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover shit is. 000
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I've done it. I've used AI for the worst possible thing. I had it create a spreadsheet of all the Kingdom Hearts games included in the collection, and output it as a XLSX so I could track completion through Google Docs. 100
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026As a comical observation, but S2 physical games collection consists of 2 packages of Disney games and 3 Resident Evil games. 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026As it turns out, Bestbuy opted for Purolator on my shipment of Kingdom Hearts, so it should be here soon. Excited to get the jump on playing a bunch of mediocre games in the worst possible way, unironically. 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I actually really like PSVR2. That being said, I think VR is dead in the consumer space. At least as a mass market product. Software was never there, and the scope of what works is extremely narrow. 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026If Claude Code has taught me anything it's that the biggest issue with Vibe Coding is the people doing it. 120
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I am not a programmer, so VS Code auto-completing lines for me is annoying as fuck. Need to turn that shit off. 020
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I don’t actually know what the next PS5 game I’ll buy is, after GTA6 releases. Talos 3? 100
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Really don’t think it can be understated how fucked Sony’s software pipeline is… 2027 is probably going to be a God of War spinoff, GaaS slop and a modern Naughty Dog game. That’s a big yikes from me. (I might get Laufey if it’s less padded than Rag was) 110
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026RIP My backer copy of Great Library and the fixed board for Speakeasy won't be here until next year (I don't actually care that much) 000
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I rarely order physical games online, but I have 3 ordered through BB Canada... so I get to play the game "Will the store ship my game on time" 100
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I am politely asking that the gamers stop putting podcast mics in front of Shawn Layden, because I need people to stop writing revisionist history for this man because he just happened to fucking like Vib Ribbon. 020
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Anyways... As I've said in the past, all of the problems with Xbox can be traced back to them sacrificing their brand identity to lock in CoD and GTA DLC. Deals that could never be indefinite. 1st party games, whether they sell or not, help build the ecosystem and narrative around a brand. 130
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Purging first party talent in the name of 3rd party partnerships, while funnelling the remaining dev resources into silos/franchise factories is the exact same mistakes that Xbox made during the 360 generation, which in turn lead to the Xbox One, which then in turn lead to Phil's spending spree. 110
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Anyways. There's nothing I want from Nintendo more than Mario Maker 3. 000
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The quote about Helix being a family device further cements my theory that it will be a branded OEM device similar to the ROG Ally X. 000
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I find it hard to believe that; A) Asha understands what "All Time Low" for Xbox actually means B) That there is any meaningful growth for a brand that has eroded all consumer confidence over the past...15yrs. C) This "reset" isn't about selling off Xbox in pieces to PE 220
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Tiktok take of the day; Corn production in the US uses more water than the current AI data center footprint in the US. This might be the stupidest fucking take I've ever seen... and I see a lot of stupid fucking brainrot tech head content. 100
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 06/10/2026LOL Canada is in great shape right now. Quebec elects the separatist party, despite relying on favoritism from the Feds. Alberta wants to separate despite having no claim to the land the province sits on. US making casual annexation jokes for the past year or 2. 100
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 06/10/2026It's important to play Kingdom Hearts on S2, because a bad game should always be played in the worst possible way.static.klipy.comDakota Laden Project FearAlt: For Science And Honor And Glory 100
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Literally no person on earth asked for this. Re-releasing the worst of the Watch_Dogs game is the most Ubisoft thing to do though.insider-gaming.comEXCLUSIVE: Watch Dogs: Legion 'Director's Cut' Planned For First Half of 2027Watch Dogs: Legion's 'Director's Cut' release is planned for the first half of 2027, with Ubisoft attempting to bring the game back to life. 210
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Is there any world where this doesn't go down as one of the worst inconsequential decisions ever made. 030
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I don't know, maybe it's just me... but I think one of the largest news outlets in Canada could just not post an OpEd that's acting as a call to violence towards one of the leaders of a Federal Political party because he *checks notes*... is an anti-Zionist Jew. 100
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The guys at the top of the Kingdom Come Deliverance studio are cringe. I don't think I ever want to see or hear from them again lol 120
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I've come to the realization over the past few months that most S2 ports are bad, and for many the question appears to be "is it too bad to be enjoyable?" Requiem is a bad port. It is also the RE game that I have played the most. I'm enjoying my time. I just don't believe "I enjoy" = "Game good" 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Nothing says S2 like half-assed ports from Square (I'm buying KH Collection on Switch 2, so I am legally allowed to laugh about this) 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Assuming the OoT remake works out…I wouldn’t be opposed to Majoras Mask (a game I’ve never played) getting that treatment. 030
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Scritchy Scratchy (which is a silly little incremental game about scratch tickets) was uploaded as the Demo on Switch 2. Not sure if I want to invest the time in taking it up with Nintendo support tomorrow, or just wait on a patch. 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Have about a month to decide if I'm going to play Alliance or Horde in WoW Forever, and if I'm going to stick with PvE or finally try a PvP realm. I really haven't played Alliance since I started playing WoW, and I've never played on a PvP realm. 200
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I am unconvinced that World of Warcraft Forever will actually be "ready" by November. There's still a lot of stuff to workout with the mega-servers 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I bought a Switch 1 game tonight (mostly because it’s getting a Switch 2 update) 100
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I’ve been playing too much WoW Forever…I think I found the door to Asmonmolds room. 020
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Frame rate in the S2 port of Requiem continues to be hilariously bad at times. Thankfully, this doesn't seem to be the type of game where it matters all that much, but still... 100
