Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Reverse engineering the Adobe Creative suite and the PS5 OS is neat and all but none of the people doing this understands the fucking code base. It’s both the funniest and stupidest thing ever. 000
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 · 08/10/2026This is his stupid super intelligence shit right? Are they that desperate to rebrand the bubble, that they want a presidential decree? 110
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 · 08/10/2026I assume resolution would be the main diff, assuming the PS5 versions upscale to 4K or something. 000
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 · 08/10/2026A Character in Kingdom Hearts "I understand" At least someone fucking does. 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I mean... it's Kingdom Hearts, so I don't know that it matters, but I'd assume so. 000
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I am, unfortunately, very serious about this. This was pure laziness, but I'm trying to work and the best links were from terrible sites that are a pain to parse data from w/o ads or the titles coming in as hyperlinks. 100
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 · 08/10/2026Prime Vibe Coder is that guy who thinks he knows best, but also never accepts that he's wrong. Ships something without testing, or checking to see if it's actually usable. As long as it fits their very narrow use case, it's "good enough" 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 · 07/10/2026You found a woman that can tolerate enough of your bad video game takes and Leaf's fandom that she actually wants to live with you... Grats. And yeah, housing market is a mess. 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I have opted to finish a terrible trilogy in the worst possible way, so I have FFVII Revelation preordered for S2. This is the pain I deserve for sticking through this padded slop. 000
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 · 07/10/2026Genuinely don’t understand how anyone can be excited for more Naughty Dog games. 000
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 · 07/10/2026Probably yes? Podracer on 64 was cool at the time. Galactic Racer sounds like a sort of dated Arcade Racer, so they might be very similar (with Galactic just being a more modern version of what Podracer was trying to be) 010
Ian @shepcommandr.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Kingdom Hearts is the first one, which should be here tomorrow. I ordered the Metaphor Steelbook and the Revelation special edition, because I don't think my local mom and pop had either available when I went to order. 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 · 07/10/2026This is why Nintendo has always been able to bounce back from missteps. Legacy and brand recognition. It's why Playstation was given such a long leash to fuck up by the enthusiast crowd. It's also why no one really gives a shit about Xbox in 2026. 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 · 07/10/2026There is no "reinvestment" and framing it as such isn't just ghoulish... it's a lie. 010
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 · 06/10/2026And he won't even be the worst person involved in Skydance... 010
