2025 Completed Games Megathread! 1. Visions of Mana My holiday break obsession - a fun and (mostly) lighthearted game with a surprising amount of depth. Gorgeous graphics and art style with a Mana Tree that looks as you imagined it did when you were a kid. A return to form for Mana. GRRRRRIZZLY!

9. Cyberpunk 2077 & Phantom Liberty Went in thinking I’d hate it, came out 140 hours later utterly amazed by what CD Projekt Red accomplished. It’s not perfect, but damn - the base game is great and Phantom Liberty is fantastic. Gonna have this one on the mind for a long time.

10. Blue Prince (DNF) Spent quite a bit of time in Blue Prince and while I really wanted to enjoy it more, the random nature of drawing rooms made the game feel unnecessarily padded and more irritating than fun and clever. Sorry my sweet Prince.

7. The Roottrees are Dead Genealogical mystery game? Sign. Me. Up. I 100%ed this bad boy in a couple days, then gasped with giddy delight when a whole *second half* opened up to me. First half is stronger, but the second gets real Maury Povich.

8. Monster Hunter Wilds Two rad ladies and I saved the Forbidden Lands despite having a whiny child as baggage in my fav Mon Hun so far due to the improvements in accessibility. Now I can grind for hours to create the perfect outfit to highlight Hunter’s abs.

6. World of Horror Lo-fi and Byzantine, an 80s point and click adventure game with a modern sensibility. Intensely replayable yet strangely frustrating in its presentation.

Visiting some tide pools on a rainy day may seem counterintuitive but is highly recommended. Fewer people around and the most active hermit crabs I’ve ever seen - basically my ideal world.

Bummer: Train was delayed for over an hour. Upside: Got to enjoy some train photography time and hey, any day on a train is a good day.

Thinking about Echoes of Wisdom and how Null really just wanted some peace and quiet, when all of a sudden the Goddesses came and created a bunch of noisy neighbors who partied all night. I ask you, who is the true villain of the game?

3. Viewfinder I was enamored with the concept of this game long before I got around to playing it. A low-pressure puzzle game that continues to find new ways to keep its gimmick fresh while telling a simple yet thematically appropriate tale. And yes, you can pet the cat. #JusticeforCait

4. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Put this one down in 2022 because I didn’t want it to end, but I finally finished it. This series, XC3 in particular, is truly special despite its flaws. The care and passion for the series and its fans is evident, and I can’t wait to see what Monolith does next.

2. Minit Part of my “Indies to Catch Up On” list, I enjoyed bopping around a charming pixel world in one-minute chunks, stabbin’ stuff with my cursed sword and solving puzzles. Doesn’t overstay it’s welcome, but great for those who love to optimize runs.

Opening Bluesky on the train home has been an emotional gut-punch. This man was truly something else, and to see the outpouring of love for his work and what he stood for has been painful yet cathartic. May we all strive to be the most authentically and unapologetically weird versions of ourselves.

This gentleman found his way into my heart yesterday and now he proudly hangs above the front door, acting as patron saint of our home. He is called Paul T. Geist, and will send appropriate vibes home with you based on your visit.

Square Enix missed a golden opportunity at the end of Rebirth when the Lifestream gets all murdery with Shinra. Not a single soldier watched their comrades die and say, “Lifestream? More like Deathstream.” …I’ll show myself out.

Turns out, I’m just as not-clever here as I was on all other social media. I was lured into a false sense of confidence by the serene blue butterfly.

Since Covid upended our lives, I’ve heard “Patient Zero” used more casually and frequently. While words and phrases shift in meaning over time, we would be remiss to ignore where these terms came from and how they were used - in this case, to demonize and scapegoat a man who deserved better.

Dragon Quest III: Hey here’s this low-key Romeo and Juliet side quest where two lovers die by suicide because they aren’t accepted by societal norms Also Dragon Quest III: lol we named the quest reward Wakey Dust because you use it to wake people up
