Warrior of Latte: Chorus of Sin

i feel bad for my therapist when i talk about how horror gaming influences my mental health

she’s super fascinated by the intersection, but i feel like she comes to work prepared to deal with domestic violence and childhood trauma and is absolutely unprepared for zombies

it is and always will be disco posting time

played a bunch of dragon ruins tonight

it is a fun little $5USD dungeon crawler microgame with great pixel art

it’s only like two hours long, but it’s fun (and there’s a sequel)

spec ops anime girl survival horror that wants to be nier automata? yeah, i’m down

is your hybrid economy in danger of hybrid abundance?

terrible day to find out my favorite book was written by chatgpt

damn, first we get new game plus, then darth vader is luke’s father, and now we have the hero who toils for years outside of time to go back to the moment he was defeated and save his friends

japanese schoolchildren are getting some damn fine hero’s journey tropes out of this show

finished infinite wealth main scenario again with the fam

there are definitely some low notes in the narrative, but it was mostly better than i remembered (back when the only yakuza game i had played was 0)

now it’s on to the substories

shadowdark book came today and damn is it pretty

sega: play nine ball for baseball training

me: yes sega

sega: eat at three chicken restaurants for baseball training

me: yes sega

sega: hurt your actual, physical hand catching a goddamn marlin at the wharf for baseball training

me: yes sega

sega: now do 12 more baseball side stories to see the last part of the baseball main mission

me: no sega

not totally sold on anomalith, but i think it’s very funny that the main character goes through half the demo with a backpack on that has the qr code for wishlisting the game

i did not really like the white box ttrpg too much, but the idea of chaos clerics casting “reverse” spells (cause wounds instead of cure wounds) was a badass idea that i’d love to see in another game

looks rad, tbh

reading about men’s mental health today and these articles rarely address one of the biggest issues, which is that many of the dudes you meet are lonely for a reason

like they tell you to bond over activities, but not what to do when your new buddy’s power fantasy is to play a racist jerk in d&d. or when he wants to talk about “what’s wrong with women” during a friendslop discord call. or when you start frequenting the card shop and showering seems to be severely optional

i guess what i’m saying is i feel like there needs to be a cultural intervention step before we even get to “just get the boys together”

setting up fedora kde and jellyfin somehow thought that kamen rider geats was teen titans GO! to the movies

a kobold is a:

watching a video about dragon ruins and damn this is one cool ass gnome

genderfucked homie in kamen rider gavv married a gothic lolita baddie who’s totally evil, hashtag goals

omg the cat rider has a laser pointer attack

besides that, i see the official subs have decided to start leaving some of the things they were translating untranslated, like FUKASHIGI instead of Inexplicable

but it looks like the fansubs are coming out on time as opposed to the two day delay on the official subs, so i’m not sure i’ll stick with the official ones. feels kinda bad seeing all the spoilers for two days before watching the episode, right?

it was tastefully done, i think

you’ve been dealing with the horrors of capitalism all your life. the toil. the insecurity. the alienation

one day you find a mysterious key and take it to the third floor of a hotel by a lake

you unlock the door and there she is, controlling the global stock market

it was you, all along

lots of posts on sbc gaming about how disappointing the retroid duo lite is

my dudes you bought the diet handheld and you’re wondering where all the sugar is. it’s the lite model. of course it’s weak

finished the anomalith demo

it was pretty okay. decent re4 remake style gameplay with the little added bit of being able to parry. it’s clearly decent production value for a aa game, but I’m not sure if it’s worth $50 when the first two hours only had three enemy types and a boss. seems like a nice buy on sale, tho
