Having laugh out loud fun with “Promise Mascot Agency.” It’s basically all the wacky dialogue of the best Yakuza side missions with business management sim. Like Dondoko Island if you play those games. If you are into management sims, then play on Hard to start. I’m on normal and the gameplay offers almost zero challenge. But the exploration, characters and writing is excellent.

That’s awesome. A close friend is doing similar stuff right now and I hope you both are happy to have this specific issue. You absolutely should feel good about yourself!
- Comment on China’s ‘artificial sun’ breaks nuclear fusion limit thought to be impossible 3 weeks ago:
I generally agree that science reporting treats everyone like children, but I really don’t have a problem with this analogy. Stars are the only naturally occurring fusion we have to observe and compare it to. To me that makes sense.
- Comment on Star Citizen is on course to reach $1 billion in player funding in 2026, and we still might not get to play its singleplayer campaign next year 4 weeks ago:
Never cared for SC but Shenmue 3 was my very memorable lesson in the crowd funding market. On the one hand it was released relatively on time, and I got my backer bonus. In the other, there still wasn’t actually a game to play.

Coke and Skittles, duh.
- Comment on Have you encountered this? 5 months ago:
True but still more likely. These things are built into the POS and it’s unlikely that a server can alter them, and my admittedly limited experience with the industry still convinced me that if you want to find a scumbag in a restaurant it’s 4 times more likely to be management than servers.
- Comment on What are some good cooperative shooters? Hidden gems? 8 months ago:
I can certainly understand not liking it. Besides it’s offensive social takes, it’s definitely not what a typical Resident Evil game is supposed to be. But a buddy and I spent years trying to find good coop game experiences and as far as games that actually sculpt and tend to the coop part as opposed to just throwing a coop mode in at the last moment, very few come anywhere close to the effort to put into this one. On harder difficulties it’s actually a really interesting challenge that’s not just about bullet sponges or grinding for better gear but about strategy and effective teamwork.
- Comment on What are some good cooperative shooters? Hidden gems? 8 months ago:
If you can get past its extremely questionable social issues, I’ve never played a co-op combat game as well designed and implemented as resident evil 5. It forces you to work together in a variety of challenges and unexpected ways. It keeps you both focused on mutual goals. And if you don’t work together with situational awareness and effective communication, you will not succeed. I really wish it sold better because I’ve never seen a company since out as much effort into co-op design except maybe the “it takes two” and “a way out” guy. But those aren’t shooters.

Damn, can we escape the encroaching hellscape by transporting everyone back to 1998? 🫰

Check out Nile Red on Nebula, (or YT if that’s your bag). He makes American Cheese from the ground cheddar up and you can watch. Having done so, I agree with you.
- Comment on Ghost of Tsushima - I've heard it's a nice game, but it overstays its welcome. Do you agree? 1 year ago:
I played it back on the PS4. My memory is that I enjoyed the vast majority of it, and was pretty completionist on that one. Mostly because the world and environments are hauntingly beautiful. I enjoyed riding slowly through the world, almost never using travel, and exploring the nooks and crannies. If that’s your bag I think you might like it. But The story does go through some contortions to fill out the play time.
