Cat butler. GameDev. Artist. Engineer. Gamer. Created a game engine: Ascension. Love JRPGs but will play pretty much everything that's fun. Has massive backlog as a result. No GenAI.

I see game reviews complaining "it's too hard!" As someone who likes difficult gameplay I cringe every time. I encourage devs to include difficulty modes to make games easier but IMO too many games are designed for the "modern" gamer who apparently wants a yellow-painted stompfest.

Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave will apparently give you the choice of fighting the big boss solo or to use time travel to retrieve allies from the Heroic Games in a final? chapter. Reminds me of Dragon Quest 4 with individual chapters and then a final where they all come together with the true hero.

Artists: - Likes do not determine your value - It's okay to not create - Not everything you make has to be important or good - You can make things just for yourself - You're allowed to rest - You're so much more than what you make

Happy Anniversary to Dragon Warrior! πŸ‰βš”οΈπŸŽ‚ Originally released in Japan as Dragon Quest, this NES RPG arrived in North America in 1989 and introduced many players to one of the best RPG series.

Dragon quest Monsters - Caravan Heart progress! I'm looking forward to this area this most I think. The little tidbits of DQ2/DQ7 lore in this game are fun. The monster system is serviceable but not as fun as other DQ Monsters games. I do like the wagons/caravan system though.

Heard a LOT of influencers argue boycotts (i.e., Sony) don't matter. I don't agree. It's the same sense of powerlessness that's led to awful historical decisions. If you feel your voices, votes, and purchases, don't matter then you might as well just resign yourself to the least desired outcome.

looking at the headlines and reflecting once again on how all the smart, hard-working, honest people I know feel like they’re going at least a little insane in our era of total Stupid Immoral Asshole ascendancy
