It's almost impossible to pick just 9 games out of the hundreds, perhaps thousands I've played in decades. But I guess that explains the back pain.

Silent Hill Townfall is sold at 35€ (~$40, tax included) at my local retail game store. GTA VI under 60€/$70. No wonder they want to kill physical games.

I guess my fundamental issue with Nintendo has remained the same since the GameCube days: every generation gets maybe 3 to 4 exclusives I'd be genuinely interested in at most, and I can't justify buying the console when every single other game would play and run better literally anywhere else.

I think everyone must see this and realize two things: 1) DLSS 5 is the bane of modern gaming and must be banned out of existence at once. 2) If you think you want a photorealistic Final Fantasy... Trust me, you don't.

@daura-xiv.bsky.social inspired me to finally outline the key points of Zeenat's backstory. While it has been crystal clear in my mind for many years, I've never committed to actually write it down. I don't expect many to read it all, but it will serve for future reference. #DagrantStories 🧵

My best friend got bored of VII the day VIII was released, so he lent it to me. That's how it all started. Every week or so, we would swap both games, so they both turned out to be my first FF simultaneously. I miss those days. And I miss you, Chris. You would have loved what this series has become.

"The RAM crisis will force the AAA devs to finally optimize their games!" *Ships a game on Steam that runs gracefully at locked 60 FPS on entry-level 4GB RAM laptops* Steam reviews: "ugly slop", " looks like a 2005 game" I guess there is no way we could win with some gamers out there 😩

Wait until they hear about LAN parties as a concept. We'd bring our big ass PC cases and 80lbs CRT monitors to someone's place, just to play games all together for the whole night. I actually miss doing that. Ironically it would be so much easier to setup now, with WiFi networks and laptops.

#ffxi has been running for 24 years now, and it is *wild* to me that we're still discovering some hidden treasures and unused content from its old files. Unbelievable. This very likely dates back from the SquareSoft era!

It's very anticlimactic that the 1K bar was reached with probably a bot 😂 I'll take the occasion anyway to say this: I've never felt at ease with social networks. It's all kinda new to me, and my postings are very inconsistent and I never thought anyone would care. Thank you for proving me wrong.

Lyndra died at Carteneau. Since then, Zeenat has known many flings and short-lived affairs. His heart does keep opening, occasionally, to those who can win it; any of them disappearing or dying in turn making him growingly more reluctant about the next time. #DagrantStories

When the Switch 2 gets its own price increase in September, there won't remain any current console under the 500€ price tag anymore in the market. No wonder kids these days are sticking with Roblox on a second-hand phone and play pretty much nothing else. It's all they can afford in this economy.

This whole Sony and PS5 discs situation would be much easier to accept if we had at least the ability to create legal game backups, exactly like Steam. Let me export DRM-enabled games with my licence key to an external USB drive; then those who want to hold a physical disc could burn that to a BD-R.

"Why don't you work on a side project/help us with our indie game?" Assuming I've even got time and energy left for it, I am not allowed to, unless it's clearly not a video game. It's explicitly stated in my job contract. It's legal, enforceable and has been the industry standard since forever.

As much as I enjoy new tracks from Soken, I wish we wouldn't applaud over the man having to work overnight for a new trailer. We've been normalizing crunch, overtime work too much in this community. Soken has been through a lot, and we shouldn't encourage them to put his health even more at risk.

Zeenat is half convinced that he will die before ever getting a chance to retire. However, he does have a dream to settle in La Noscea someday, and establish himself as an old swordmaster; passing his experience and techniques on to the next generation of adventurers. #DagrantStories
