Fabio might end up being my favorite character in Fortune's Weave, not just because he is a completely unhinged maniac, but also because he is completely and utterly relateable.

Throwing my hat in the ring. Not ordered except maybe the top 3 loosely, since they immediately came to mind when I saw the prompt. Not sure about Balatro, but I really felt like putting it on the list, so it must be saying something about me in some way.

-Super Mario Galaxy
-Xenoblade Chronicles
-Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

-Undertale
-Pokemon Emerald
-Touhou Koumakyou: The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil

I think the best way is one of those spoiler banners you usually see at the top of certain wiki articles. Like this is what you see at the top of certain articles on the Xenoblade wiki:

Played and finished Orbitals with Dani. Good game! It's tightly designed with wonderfully crafted levels. I don't think there was a single dull moment. It's sadly shorter than I was expecting, but it was a joy nonetheless. You can't hate a game that looks like this.

In my efforts to learn German via Pokemon *Blattgrüne*, I've been going out of my way to read everything. Here, I had to stop and wonder, "has anyone actually gone to check this specific spot in Bill's house?"

I've played nearly twenty hours of Final Fantasy 15 now and I still can't figure out where I stand on the game. It's a narrative mess and a bore from a gameplay standpoint, but at other times it's oddly charming, mostly because of the roadtrip angle. Negative points for this, though.

Only if I were to add a special tier called "cameo hell," because then ROB would absolutely fit that based on that but especially this:

Nearly two years later, I've updated the Smash Bros. tier list that asks the specific question, "Can you play a game that this character appears in on the Nintendo Switch (2)?" even though no one was asking.

I think I should get back to Pokemon XD today. Can't leave my beloved Jolteon, Paul Blart, waiting.

Beat Pragmata and got its platinum. I'm not usually a trophy hunter, but for some reason the gameplay loop really appealed to me. Frantic, but very satisfying! Maybe I just like pipe maze puzzles. Possibly the only game I'll ever beat on a "Lunatic" difficulty.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is one of my favorite games of all time, and bullshit like this is why.

This panel is funny to look back on. I remember coming up with this line of dialog as a joke when I was listening to the Deltarune OST. But then I was like "wait wait can we actually do it." And so we did!

A panel from Trinity Saga: Unchained. Lucy and Shade are looking at Lime, who's changed his face to resemble Spamton from Deltarune. He is saying: "Hey, you guys are lucky! People used to pay good money for these jokes. I used to be a big shot, after all."

If I'm gonna make an island dedicated to our OCs, obviously I can't forget to add everyone's favorite mascots and page closers.

Callux heard Ignis and Lucy were having a peaceful life on an island and decided he should pay them a friendly visit. That's what he claims, at least.

Lime, maybe you shouldn't thank me.

Btw, yes, we got them to move in together. You'll never guess what their house is called.

So tomorrow, we'll be starting a new game on stream. I won't say what it is right now, but I will give you guys a hint:

Thatchner @thatchner.bsky.social · 21/04/2026

Hi guys! Thought I'd join in the trend, too! 😃

My "About Me: Video Games" grid lists Super Smash Bros. Ultimate under many categories, such as favorite game, best soundtrack, and "Criminally Overlooked." Playstation AllStars Battle Royale is listed for "Overrated." Super Smash Bros. Melee is listed under "Not usually my thing, but..."

Thatchner @thatchner.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

Early on in TS:U, I had a specific idea for a Callux monologue. I thought that the monologue should be a contained in giant speech bubbles. Dani had hesitations, but I was insistent. It was going to look good. I apologize to my beautiful wife. I don't know what I was thinking.

Went to the mall today. This hole was made for me.

A standee of Ash Ketchum and Pikachu with Ash's face cut out stands in the center of the frame. I have placed my face in the hole where Ash's face would be. I am making a funny face. Please laugh.

I joke about this game, but there's a lot to like about Final Fantasy 8. This game doesn't miss on these backgrounds.
