I think Sony should invent a Super Platinum trophy so Xbox has to counter with their own equivalent so people can keep pretending that this matters.
Wario64@wario64.bsky.social · 1h agoPlatinum trophy equivalent coming to Xbox Achievements later this year
If u don’t have real life friends u should try it. They r ppl u sorta like socialize with. U can do an activity or eat food or just be in each others presence. It’s kinda freeform in that way. Or I guess u can keep getting mad at computer ppl instead. Whatever u want
I don't really understand the logic of calling Beast of Reincarnation a Soulslike. You might as well call it a roguelike because sometimes you die.
Caught up on One Piece Live Action. Tall Chopper is a terrible monstrosity and they should have added a voice filter or something to mitigate it.
Blogged about my favorite Big Walk puzzle and how it distilled the game's thesis into a single 5-minute puzzle. Small spoilers for this puzzle!
How a Single Big Walk Puzzle Perfectly Captured the Game's Message | Restart.run
Big Walk is a game about adventuring with your friends and it's easy to lose sight of the moment. One puzzle reminded me about what's important.

Gun to your head (literally), you have to do one of these things 50 times in a row or die. Which do you choose? - A Shoryuken on a SNES d-pad - Getting into an up-pipe in Super Mario World suspended over a large gap that requires P-speed to hit

"saudi arabia owns EA" is going to be the headline you see basically everywhere for this one but "jared kushner is about to use EA as a vehicle for trump administration bribes" is equally relevant imo
![The firm is fully owned by Jared Kushner and has a staff of approximately 20 people.[2][5] By 2024, the firm had returned no profits to its investors.[6] The firm has been controversial due to conflicts of interests arising from Kushner soliciting funds from Middle Eastern governments while also working as an envoy having direct and indirect dealings with those governments in his role in the second Trump administration.[7] According to reporting by Bloomberg News, investors in the firm do so with the expectation of influencing the Trump administration.[8]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2jjromh55tf7pp7s4hsvurf4/bafkreihebdzjog2hp37o2q3enjyrsi46btqktev76ogpneczsrrzl55fo4)

One time I said “Imran” to someone and he said “Ohhh I loved that show” and I still to this day have no idea what he was talking about.

Every site's review AI summaries: Some customers praise how well this item works, while others report that it does not work at all. Many enjoy the reliability, while some reviews state that it is not very reliable.
My main takeaway from that Fortune's Weave Direct is that I'm glad they let you switch between campaigns now so I don't have to have decision paralysis in which one I choose, telling myself I'll do the other campaigns later and just never doing them.

Beast of Reincarnation's story absolutely mistakes dreariness for depth. I genuinely cannot see finishing this game and going "Yeah, that story was really good" without also asking "By what bar?"
Beast of Reincarnation is an impressive first attempt in some ways, but a huge tumble down the hill in most others. The end result is a mixed, messy package with some virtues. Our review: www.restart.run/articles/bea...
I reviewed Beast of Reincarnation. I struggled on this one between a lower score and what I ultimately gave it. I ended up going higher because it does have some good spots, but they're really spoiled by all the bad. www.restart.run/articles/bea...
