This is a very good video that you should check out! ...It also left me very confused!

Hey, that's me! Beast of Reincarnation has as a *lot* of issues. Once the game transitions from a punishing Souls-like to more of a character action game, I think it's a lot of fun! It just takes too long to get there. Also, yes: Everything about the presentation is just "Nier Automata at home".
Giant Bomb@giantbomb.com · 2d agoShawn reviewed Beast of Reincarnation! Fans of the genre will likely find this Souls-like to be a mixed bag. While there's fun to be had, ultimately its presentation is underwhelming and filled with... *cough* tropes. Read the full review here ➡️ giantbomb.com/reviews/beas...
We tried something interesting with this one. Adobe Premiere is a dogshit application that has made multicam videos difficult for me & Jan to produce while we transition to Resolve. So, this video was produced entirely with live switching in OBS, like a live TV show!

Heads-up on the Pepsiman recomp: it *does* use AI. And well, you can see what the kind of person the dev behind it is. As I said last time I raised it, it's become a race to first and the limelight that's going to wreck the recomp scene. Some of the most important game preservation work.
barleybap@barleybap.bsky.social · 2w agoA heads up that AI *was* used here. The developer also seems to be fond of ableist slurs, which you know, very cool to see in 2026.
What time is it? It's Blinx-O-Clock! Promotional wristwatches released in 2002.
What if they just gave Bridget a buster sword? Comm for my friend @amazinglilybtw.bsky.social! #guiltygearstrive #ff7
xemu has 19x the amount of games they're starting with. 224x if you're willing to settle for "playable" over "perfect", which i'd expect microsoft's first party implementation to amount to tbh. plus you're not giving microsoft any money, which you shouldn't.
