Still not feeling ready to stream again (nor do I particularly want to with Twitch being the way it is right now) but maybe I'll post some thoughts about games I've played during my break.

Beat Beastieball last night. If you couldn't tell from all the art I've been really, really into it. It really just does everything a monster tamer could do right. Highly recommend if you really wanna get attached to your monsters.

When starting, I wasn't sure I'd be able to get through Mina the Hollower, but I did and it very quickly cemented itself as my game of the year. The game was really fun throughout the whole journey, loved it. Definitely an instant classic.

I actually really liked Pokemon Legends Z-A. Thought it was the best Pokemon game we've got in years. Was a bit rough visually but gameplay wise it was maybe the most fun I've ever had with a Pokemon game? (1)

The active battle system is also just super fun, it feels like a natural evolution of Pokemon combat and rewards experimentation and strategies just not possible in the rest of the series. There's more reason to choose a move than just type and power and I think that's cool. Important, even. (3)

Finally, the story, while nothing groundbreaking, was pretty unique for a Pokemon game. I liked that it had a consistent theme and recurring characters, neither of which are things you see that often in Pokemon. It ended on a satisfying note and I don't have any complaints with it as a whole. (Fin)

In a time where we're constantly getting these huge, empty open worlds, Lumiose's compactness and use of space was really refreshing, to the point it's probably my favourite open world in a video game, at least from a gameplay standpoint. (2)

As a singleplayer game, Splatoon Raiders definitely wasn't as fun for me as Alterna or Side Order, but as a multiplayer game I enjoy it much more than Splatoon 3's battles or Salmon Run.

Aside from the monotype dens, I found the levels to be rather uninteresting, just straight pathways between Salmonid arenas with very little in the way of creative setups. And the music, while perfectly fine, just didn't capture the weirdness of Splatoon music to me.

Familiars Updated!!! new items found in dungeons! hoard gems and wager them against other players! dungeon difficulty adjustments! and rebalancing of certain familiars, including a (VERY fun imho) new attack for Daemon!

Hey, I'll be streaming a 100% blind playthrough of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure at around 5-6pm PST tonight, I usually don't advertise streams at all but I did put resources and effort into this one. Plus there are channel point redeems, that's fun. twitch.tv/kolabold

"Sometimes you just got to take a moment and appreciate the little things" My apologies for not uploading this sooner but I'll have more #kobolds on the way #art #dragon

yeah chronomancy is cool if you're fighting for justice or whatever but if you're not an adventurer (or villain) it's like. cool, you can win the lottery and also now nobody wants to talk to you because the only other use case for chronomancy is being fucking insufferable in day-to-day conversation

wouldn't it be fucked up if somewhere in the universe was an infinitely long, unbreakable, meter thick pole that always intersected with the centre of the universe but otherwise floated around freely

if i could live in any pikmin cave i would certainly live in that stupid ass floor in dream den with 10 armored cannon larvas scattered around

sorry i dont think we should play hide n seek anymore. no you're fine- no you're a great hider. it's just that whenever we play you have a quest marker so- yeah turns out it counts as a quest. i didnt wanna tell you because you seemed to enjoy yourself but it's just not fun for me anymore. sorry

Desperately want a game that's just the train travel from Spirit Tracks but expanded upon. More train weapons, customisation, cars with different stats and abilities, enemies with different attack patterns... Would be sick.
