It’s funny, I own a switch and I would have bought the game (and I probably will still if the technical and QoL issues get resolved) but I’m emulating it better than the hardware can run it right now.
Oh god, please don’t make me talk about myself.

I like it more, but I’m a fan of the more classic Zeldas. It’s good, but it’s marred by the same technical issues that plagued the LA remake, and the lack of some basic QoL features like a Quick Select or Favorites wheel is bringing it from ‘great’ to ‘good.’
I got it for travel and it really is a top notch portable gaming hub. Doubly so because emulation is really easy to set up and run through the frontend. I love being able to play Elden Ring on the go.
It makes a lot more sense if you reframe it as freedom for rich white landowners in the 1800s to not have to pay taxes to King George, not so much for the peons, paupers and slaves.
My job absolutely fucking sucks but the money’s good and I need insurance so I can’t leave without having anything lined up, and the market for IT jobs is absolutely dogshit right now so I’ve had zero hits on the apps I’ve put out.
I hate capitalism.
Started playing #BLUD, I’m only about ten minutes in because sleep got the better of me last night but it looks pretty good so far.
Seepage is one of those bands that just sticks in your brain. If you like the tongue-in-cheek of Zane’s angsty edgelord teen vibes, the developers also made a doomlike in the same universe, developed by and starting that character.
Literally 90% of my problems are because billionaires exist. My rent is too high, groceries are unaffordable, my car is one dashboard light away from breaking down. All of these problems are solvable with the money that billionaires extract from my labor.
I actually really like the SNES game, it is objectively not great though. You can’t even save, so emulation is a must unless you can dedicate an 8-10 hour sitting to it.
Particularly that it switches between top-down outdoors and a pseudo-FPS indoors, and the claustrophobic interiors and darker music give it a lot of charm.
I think the seven seas be particularly fine this morning, arr.
As a lifelong customer of Dwarven Forge, I understand your pain.
I look like the archetypical IT guy. 30s, balding, overweight, like I’m constantly about to have a nervous breakdown (I am.)
But can it handle AAAA games?
After the Helldivers fiasco, I think it’s time to raise the plank and hoist the sails, Yarr.
Fucking ghoulish.
It was slim, but I had hoped that we might get an Arx Fatalis 2 what with the Fatal Fortress easter egg. No more, I guess.
And they’re probably carving themselves a nice bonus out of the tax write-off for the studio closure.
I mean, let’s not forget that the early consoles had their own pitfalls, a period of gaming that spawned tropes like ‘Nintendo Hard’ and ‘Guide Dang It’ in order to, among other things, pad out the length of what we would consider an otherwise barebones game, and to sell time on their hints and tips hotline. I do feel like there was less bullshit in the past, but it definitely still existed.
Good. We’ll see if it sticks.
SAY IT!
