Willemite Crater @willemite.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I know people in the MTG world hate on Energy as a mechanic — and for good reason since it's often very poorly implemented — but I just realized the reason I really enjoy my energy deck is because it gives me a simple little engine-builder mini-game to play while I play, and that's nice for me. 020

Willemite Crater @willemite.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I grew up primarily using Apple computers; our first family computer was a pre-OSX Power Macintosh and my first personal computer was a pre-Intel iBook G4. I say that just to say I have decades of experience with MacOS. I JUST NOW learned you can hold Option for extra right-click menu items. 120
Willemite Crater @willemite.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Not sure I'd say Death Stranding stuck the landing, but the big twist at the end was fun. Kinda wish some of that plot could've been paced out more through the rest of the game instead of making me watch a feature-length cutscene at the end, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering. 000

Willemite Crater @willemite.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Death Stranding is fascinating for the way its themes flip back and forth between feeling childishly and naively straightforward and optimistic and feeling like everything has been an enormous and hopelessly complex web of lies. There is no in-between and I can't tell which way it's gonna go. 000

Willemite Crater @willemite.bsky.social · 12/09/2026I finally tried the new Ghost In The Shell, and while I love the art style and the lighthearted tone, it takes SO MUCH energy to watch because the exposition is SO DENSE and you have to choose between subs that move at lightning speed or a dub that's buried in the mix without closed captioning. 120
