- Comment on The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games. 1 day ago:
There are novels that don’t measure up to the writing of visual novels.
There are comics that don’t measure up to the art of visual novels.
There are video games that are less engaging than visual novels.
Broad generalizations like this are so useless. It’s okay that you play one or two visual novels and they weren’t for you. I don’t particularly like visual novels either, but to discredit an entire genre because of it is just ignorant. I’ve played some visual novels that were excellent and pushed the boundaries of video games. See Slay the Princess and Doki Doki Literature Club. I’m playing Date Everything right now, it’s not exactly innovative, but I’m having fun with it.

Do you subscribe to A24 Zines? I just googled it.
- Comment on It's 2025 now, what are the games you'll be starting the year with? 7 months ago:
Psychonauts 2. I picked it up for 80% off during the autumn Steam sale and just getting around to playing it.
I also picked up It Takes Two and have been playing that with my wife.

- Comment on I love diablo-likes, but they're also really annoying. 10 months ago:
+1 for Halls of Torment
It’s a really solid entry in the rogue-lite vampire-survivors-like genre that Diablo enjoyers could pick up really easily
