- Comment on 'We don't have shareholders, but we also don't think about them,' Larian Studios uses its stage time at the DICE Awards to speak out against a brutal industry climate 8 months ago:
Building games that are actually fun is going to make you the most money, that’s it.
Say it louder for the publishers in the back.
It’s infuriating how game design is devolving into engagement treadmills instead of simply being fun. The industry needs more Hi-Fi Rushes and less Suicide Squads.
- Comment on F-Zero courses from a dead Nintendo satellite service restored using VHS and AI 9 months ago:
This is honestly incredible work being done for preservation. As usual, it’s being done by fans and not Nintendo. It’s a travesty that Nintendo can’t be bothered to do more than the bare minimum and put the Satellaview content on SNES NSO.

Dodge Offset in Bayonetta. I played through 1&2 a couple times over before even becoming aware of it.
It’s a totally different game once you wrap your head around it. My opinion of Bayo 1 went way up as a result - Dodge Offset is the glue that holds the combat together and is the key differentiating feature from all other character action games.

- Comment on Starfield, is it getting review bombed? 1 year ago:
I can’t tell if I don’t like Starfield, or playing games anymore.
I don’t know your tastes, but it’s probably the latter if you only stick to the AAA realm of games. I sure as hell have burned on them - the indie and mid-budget space is where you’ll find games focused on simply being fun. Hi-Fi Rush, Pizza Tower, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk to name a few that came out this year.

Shout out to Gunstar Super Heroes! I feel like many fans of the Genesis original never even knew it got a (VERY good) sequel.
- Comment on Starfield - Review Thread (87/100 OpenCritic) 1 year ago:
Honestly, most “professional” game reviews are made by average joe gamers who happen to have a platform to broadcast their thoughts. Most of these writers are not expert players nor are they always well versed in the genre of the game they’re reviewing.
I never understand why people put so much stock into them when their opinions are no more valid than any random person on the internet.
