- Comment on Would you like to see a mainline Pokemon game created in the old style? 1 week ago:
Yup. Fan projects and indie games can fill this niche. Pokemon is the most profitable media franchise EVER. They should be innovating and improving, not chasing nostalgia.
- Comment on This game has 100 endings, and it's pushing the creators to the brink of bankruptcy | PC Gamer 1 week ago:
Big appreciation for Undertale, which has 3 major endings but hundreds of variations for each. It’s nice to have the game acknowledge what you did and give you resolution.

…what’s wtong with lofi? It’s background noise that helps tons of people focus.

- Comment on What is your favorite indie game? 1 week ago:
Cave Story really isn’t a metroidvania. The path splits at points, but there’s very little choice where to explore. It’s just a platformer action shooter.
My favorite metroidvania has to be Aquaria. Vibes of the game are on point. The story is great for a game in that genre, and the traversal and combat are unique and tons of fun. Soundtrack is phenomenal.
Check out Gato Roboto if you want a metroidvania similar to Cave Story!

I use Lawful Good for the same reason. Both keep the center of weight in the middle, but your method is more evenly distributed.
- Comment on After getting Stardew Valley to 'a good place' with update 1.6, Eric Barone is now fully focused on his next game 2 weeks ago:
Chiming in with why I love SV: While the game itself is a new thing (well 9 years old at this point), it really feels like a product of an earlier time. And not just the graphics, music, gameplay, and plot. It lacks all the dark pattern mechanics and monetization that’s nearly inescapable in modern games. It just feels good to play, but always feels good to put down.
I just find the game endlessly charming. Every time I pick it up it reminds me of my childhood playing SNES.

The team is 22 people… so that’s definitely not AAA

For all its shit with killing fan projects, tournaments, and frivolous lawsuits, this is actually a legitimate case.

- Comment on A New Form of Verification on Bluesky - Bluesky 3 weeks ago:
I mean this is just Twitter’s old verification system, but now accounts have a lit of verifiers, so it’s not one centralized entity approving, and there’s accountability. I don’t see this as enshittified.

Huh, this is 100% free. Looks like it’s a smaller version of Lunacid (which is $14)

No seriously though, there’s a lot of places it looks like a personal art project. But the aesthetic is awesome and the setting looks interesting.

- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 5 weeks ago:
Yeah I’m just going to stick on Win 10 for a while. Apparently the enterprise version is getting support for longer so maybe I’ll see if I can get on that.
- Comment on Switch 2 mouse mode (such potential) 5 weeks ago:
Yup. I want to play Prime 4 and DK Bananza at some point. I don’t need to play them day 1, but I’ll want to play them eventually. And I’ll want to play the inevitable Pikmin 5 and Smash Bros 6.
- Comment on The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck. 5 weeks ago:
I think most people are more upset about Nintendo pushing an $80 price tag for first party games. TotK put a bad taste in a lot of peoples’ mouths, but it was both a technical marvel and highly anticipated. People were beyond hyped about the game years before we learned about the increased price.
Mario Kart World was announced out of the blue, and while it looks like a ton of fun, it’s not the same kind of ‘I would be disappointed if I didn’t play it before I died’ as TotK. So a further bump in price for it just feels awful.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Launches on June 5th Worldwide; 1080p Screen With 120 FPS and HDR Support, Docked Mode 4K Resolution Support Confirmed 1 month ago:
Not always the case as with the swift price drop for the 3DS. Depends on what sales look like for the Switch 2. Maybe we’ll get an OLED version for $500 or something. But my gaming plate is pretty full, and I may just power through Prime 4 on Switch.

I’m personally very excited for Prime 4, DK Bananza, and Hyrule Warriors Imprisoning War, as well as F-Zero GX getting released from the vault. Maybe not hyped enough to pay day 1 prices though
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Launches on June 5th Worldwide; 1080p Screen With 120 FPS and HDR Support, Docked Mode 4K Resolution Support Confirmed 1 month ago:
It’s at least through this year with Prime 4 and Legends Z-A. I bet the price will make adoption slow and we’ll get major Switch 1 games through 2026.
