Just a new dad that is finding less and less time to actually game haha. That is my main hobby though; video games are probably 80% of what I chat about on BSky. ๐Ÿ˜Š

I don't want to stop ๐Ÿ˜ญ, but alas, I must hang my hat here for the moment. We are in Part 2. ๐ŸŽ‰ Fortune's Weave is on track to be my whole life through the rest of the year ๐Ÿ˜‚

No cheating, post your lock screen! ๐Ÿ“ฑ Also, haven't update my lock screen in forever, but I finally did. ๐Ÿ˜…

After... 273 hours?! I finally completed Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave! ๐Ÿฆ #kyarafefw What a journey lol and tbh I feel both happy and hollow at the same time somehow. Does the game drag? Yes, but did I enjoy it? Absolutely, and I'm so looking forward to going through it all again next year lol

Random Game of the Day Day 643 - Police Quest: Swat Picked this up at a thrift store and still haven't gotten around to checking it out. But I'm a fan of most of Sierra's other games, this the reason I picked it up Anyone here ever played this?

One day, this will be the second Kyle Thompson game I will have played (it's actually installed on my desktop, ready to go). ๐Ÿ˜Š Good read to get a sense of it. ๐Ÿ‘‡

Better late than never, here is my review of Well Dweller! A wonderfully designed metroidvania, I wholeheartedly recommend this one for newcomers and veterans alike.

Final Fantasy Resonanceโ€™s sprites were sometimes redrawn for individual camera angles. The game's producer and director explain to us how โ€œcinematic pixel artโ€ helped transform HD-2D into something worthy of Final Fantasy. Full interview: 80.lv/articles/int...

October 25th is Portia's birthday. ๐ŸŽ‚ This snooty pup has graced every AC title with her spots and definitely has a fanbase. ๐Ÿ‘ She was one of our first 10 villagers, but also the very first to move. ๐Ÿ˜ข Nice to see her again after 6+ years. ๐Ÿ˜‡ If you have her, be sure to take her something nice. ๐ŸŽ

I've done nothing but play Final Fantasy Resonance today. I'm in Chapter 5 (out of 8), and have gotten all but 4 Visions. I am loving this game so much, I hope we get DLC, an expansion, or a sequel.

Fortune's Weave Progress: 4:30 wakeup so... Leda P1x2 โŒš Much has stayed the same, but I have a couple of different pickups (Loreta Mikaela) โœจ Sirocco is just one of the best no matter how you build him ๐Ÿ™Œ Mu hasn't been as explosive ๐Ÿ˜… Catania seems to always be one of my GoaTs ๐Ÿชฝ

Happy third birthday Slay The Princess! If you've never played it I cannot recommend it enough. It is an amazing VN pick a path style game. In fact the INCREDIBLE art book is set out in a pick a path format where you can see which decisions lead where! Thank you @blacktabbygames.com for your work.

Be known for what you love, not what you hate. Itโ€™s ok to not be positive all the time. Complaining about things is normal. But I really think you will be happier if the people around you know more about the things you like than the things you donโ€™t like.

Walktopath Traveller II Progress: Not much to be honest. ๐Ÿ˜… A small story beat here/there, today's session was mostly exhausting some activities in some towns and walking. I am just about to hit Temenos' third story bit which should be interesting. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Alright Minigame! Try to guess the song my toddler wants me to play by how they ask for it. Syd: "I want ma-ma-ma" Good luck chat ๐Ÿ˜‚

๐Ÿฅน I legit actually teared up a bit ๐Ÿ˜‚ This is a really great read. Check it out! ๐Ÿ‘‡

I'll start out: A: Absorb The grass type move. Iconic. Beats the hell out of Geodudes in a huge long dark cave. Restores health. Awesome move to start out a journey with. ๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ‘

Man I really need to spend some time, not browsing, but organizing my notes in my phone. All my gaming thoughts are all over the place. It's chaos. ๐Ÿ˜…

Dusting off this old review format for old time's sake! Here is my review of Castlevania: Belmont's Curse ๐Ÿฆ‡ ๐Ÿ”ฅ 4.5/5 ๐Ÿ”ฅ Such a fantastic return to the series, and an absolute blast to play! Definitely one of my favorite games of the year and one I would totally recommend to any Metroidvania fan!

Great thread on some of the history and iconic games from BioWare. Definitely highlights how influential they were; where their reputation came from. ๐Ÿ‘‡

In thinking about the loss of BioWare, which is truly one of the greatest and most important game development studios ever to exist, it occurred to me that a lot of folks might not understand WHY their loss is so upsetting to so many of us. So here's a quick primer on the studio. (A thread.)

And we did it! Challenge 46 completed! ๐ŸŽ‰ Thanks everyone who contributed. I thought this was an extra fun little brain teaser (genuinely enjoyed thinking about what kid me would've liked from the modern era). As usual, I will put up the next game tomorrow. We are getting close to #50. ๐Ÿคฉ
