Jumping back into Fire Emblem having only just got to a point where I can roam around a hub area of sorts and holy moly. Lots of infodump. It's very Persona-ey. Apparently I need to remember to feed a bird.

Got a Pixel phone because ironically it's the easiest to degoogle with GrapheneOS. Also used the opportunity to debloat. Reduced apps from 105 to 35. Very relaxing to have much less noise lol
Nintendo I've had enough of your vocal songs. They're in every game now and they're so cringe. It's like a Disney movie. Stop doing it. I'm of course talking about better batter from Practice English for the Nintendo DS music.youtube.com/watch?v=TfhS...

Happy that MAGWest has sold out in America because it's in America and I don't want to go to America. Wake me up when they make MAGwEUst.
New fire emblem hasn't quite clicked with me yet (only 4 hours in) but maybe because I liked Awakening and the series is now quite different. Apparently 100 hours, a LOT of story front loaded, its character art isn't gelling with me so far either.
Blocking Reddit and YouTube shorts on my phone has almost certainly improved my wellbeing. My brain is significantly less rotted now. Wound recommend.
Game where you don't know what the goal is but all the NPCs dramatically say "you have to... break the cycle" and the final boss is a bike
Guy who's not going to buy the Steam Frame because they're waiting to see what Nintendo brings to the table
BREAKING: The Skull Kids have dropped out of the Ed Sheeran tour. They have also become aggressive towards Link and start attacking him.
oh, th-thank you YouTube Auto Captions you're too kind 🥺
So I've been pondering the Steam Frame. It's hella expensive, but I've been intrigued by some older simpler VR games that I imagine should run on it without streaming (I don't have a great PC). But then I wonder if I'll play it for that long really. Then I just thought... Balatro in VR?

I rarely laugh out loud but had to stifle it at work when I read this (I work in the Lost Woods so the Skull Kids will become aggressive and start attacking me)

Playing Tell Me Why at the mo. As someone who skips 90% of stories (which obviously would be redundant in a story game lol), I'm finding it fairly engaging so far. Like, it gives the vibes of Dear Esther/Gone Home but more organic given you're chatting to your sister.
Any time I think of how good Etrian Odyssey's soundtracks are I think of the beautiful softer tracks and then I forget that there are HEAD-EXPLODING-BANGERS like www.youtube.com/watch?v=9h_t...

You know what? Here's ALL the opponent voice clips from Kirby's Avalanche. There's some really good ones that I think more people need to hear. #Kirby
Finished it! What a silly lil RPG I love it. More RPGs of this length and complexity please. It has enough substance and momentum to be great fun for 10 hours. Weirdly despite avoiding a bunch of encounters the final boss kinda easy (gonna try secret boss just to get rekt)

One thing I like about most popular RPGs is that you can jump into any game without any context of the past games. Like Final Fantasy!
idk how many ppl follow me that care about this but: S3XMODITMANIA, the longstanding multi-round tracker module tournament, is back for a new iteration after a several-year hiatus! if you're interested you can check the details here: sincx.music/s3xmoditmani..., the entry round is open till Oct 3!

Damn can't believe Square Enix keep struggling to work out how much padding and mini games their largest RPG should have when they nailed it years ago in Super Mario RPG (the answer is no padding, a number of transitional mini games)

Okay yea glad I finally beat Fire Emblem Awakening. Permadeath makes it so funny. By the last mission I had to buy another me to win and sent my last remaining troops to be fodder. Tragic. A win's a win tho.
I'm a day late but have an old chiptune cover of the cirno theme remix in the touhou 12.3 fighting game I think it's pretty good (especially as it only uses 4 channels (ignoring the pops I put in the dpcm channel))
