@ben_h: Honestly, the gallows humour approach is just what's needed. I love and admire how their approaching their final run. And it's so good to hear that at least some of this will (hopefully) conti...

Same. The energy they had was perfect. TBH, I kind of wish the Nextlander dudes could bring Abby in full time, because every time she's on stream with them the energy shifts in a great way. (It's alr...

FFVII, VIII, IX; Chrono Cross.Thought of saying FFXIII as well, but then I remembered it said an RPG you loved, and that is, for me, the lowest in the series.

I absolutely don't. But it's been something I've realized for a lot of years. Gaming is one of my first loves—I was the youngest in my family by a wide margin and struggled to make friends growing up...

Personally, living in an area where internet connectivity is spotty and also being someone who actively despises playing online—with friends or strangers—and only goes online on my consoles to browse...

@apewins: "Maybe it's time to take a loss on this one and move on to something else."Fucking gross, dude. Callous and pretty disgusting to tell a group of people, myself included, to just take the L w...

As already mentioned, Nora Jemisin's work is incredible and incredibly inclusive. And despite being written by a couple of cis, straight white dudes, The Expanse series is amazing on that front. It n...

@theodoricfriede: The difference here is that Dahl is long dead while Rowling is alive and not only profiting off HP's continued relevance but actively using her platform and whatever growth it receiv...

It's a fucking video game. Buy it and play it if you're going to, but don't act put upon if the trans/gender-nonconforming people in your life give you a hard sigh or a side-eye. IMO, as a trans pers...

Gonna be super basic. Dead Space remake for sure, Forespoken maybe, Hollowknight Silksong hell yes. But my old Nintendo-loving ass is most excited for Tears of the Kingdom. And I guess FFXVI (in hope...

It's difficult to know where to draw the line re: addiction vs. obsession, but the ones that have brought me the closest are Elden Ring (209 hours in a month and a half, which for me is absurd) and T...

I'm a lifelong Zelda fan. I saved up all my cash and bought the original when it hit North America, back when I was six or seven. Have played every mainline entry in the series. And I could never get...

Elden Ring. Which surprised the hell out of me as I have not been able to get into any FS game before this. Not for lack of trying either. But the open world aspect of this just clicked in a way the ...

@ben_h said:It stopped being fun listening to the final portions of GOTY because Gerstmann or someone would shoot down a game quickly without listening or would stonewall a game other staff thought w...

Oh god, let's see how many I can recall.MGS 1 and 2 for opening sequences. Both do such a perfect job setting the stage for something epic. Conversely, MGS3 has, I think, the best final hour of almos...

Definitely an escape. Which is, I think, true for a lot of trans people, but also people, like me, who've struggled with depression, anxiety, and perhaps been forced into being an adult far too soon ...
