The Wolfenstein: The New Colossus critique - Nazi-Killing Business - is coming along nicely! Should be out in a couple of weeks, I worked on this and the last video side by side so a lot of the heavy lifting was done when The New Order video went live. We're talking about America. Stay tuned! 👀
Just don’t make anymore movies and give me more of this please. #007FirstLight rocked. Any complaints I have feel like fun challenges for the sequel to iterate on (boss fights and gadget variety mainly!)
Today seems like a good day to announce my next two writey long longs will be on Machine Games #Wolfenstein series. I had to read a lot of weird stuff for this so you can deal with that when it’s out. Coming soon! Thumbnails by @hotcyder.bsky.social
QUICK ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨 In an effort to battle the algorithm, I’ve moved the Noobus Humanus series over to its own channel! 👇 All future Noobus videos will be here: youtube.com/@noobushuman...
I Made My Wife Play #Hades2 - coming soon! 👀 Get caught up: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
Every day we get further from Resident Evil: Requiem is a day I feel more vindicated in my video
Rolled credits on the true ending of #Saros I fucking loved this. It’s the game I wanted Returnal to be but could never really gel with. Rhythmic, satisfying gameplay aside - it’s the game’s whole VIBE that gets me. Might be my favourite adaptation of the King In Yellow ever.
Rolled credits on #PeopleOfNote by @iridiumstudios.bsky.social tonight and I fucking loved this. A game that leans into being a musical with its whole chest. Hope they don’t give up on this idea - I’d kill for a sequel. Note is such a wonderful world!
A Noobus Humanus AND 3 Lore Dump episodes in one weekend!? Work on Monday’s gonna be rough 😴
I am really falling in love with #PeopleOfNote What a year for indies man
I love video games. #ProjectSongbird is my favourite game of the year so far. A gloomy psychological horror that unnerved me, made me shriek at one point, and had me feeling all kinds of fucked up when the credits rolled. Im gonna make a point of checking out everything else FYRE games has made.
I am asking you to play #ProjectSongbird Im two thirds through as far as I can tell and I will be talking about this game at the end of the year.
An easter egg is when you copy-paste gameplay sequences from your other games. SequenCES. Plural. Many many sequences.
Been asked about my #ResidentEvil Tier List and it changes daily, but currently here's where I'm at. If I could put Requiem's second half in "C" I would
This is such an interesting article because I agree with Harper Jay MacIntyre throughout… until the conclusion. Requiem’s second half devolved into a desperate retread to me and - unlike how MGS4 handled it - it came across as hollow. kotaku.com/resident-evi...
Guess what #ResidentEvil fans - if you start watching my RE Retrospectives right now, Chris will punch a boulder RIGHT as #ResidentEvilRequiem unlocks in the UK. I did not plan this, but I did do the maths. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fdij...
Incredibly excited to announce Lore Dump has a new theme song by @marinahascoffee.bsky.social and a new intro by IcaroGabriel17! It’ll start appearing in episodes in March!
