Fear the mighty abuela murals of Santiago de Compostela, because all Galicians fear their slipper throwing overlords.

A CoruΓ±a? Beautiful place.

Chorizo has Spanish and Portuguese origins, but it's quite different from Mexican chorizo, sadly I've not had the chance to try it though!

Heading to a pulperia this evening, and I'm loading up on octopus πŸ™

Galicia is a beautiful place.

Got a Mercadona and Gadis across the road, living my best life.

Pains me whenever I'm back in the UK because a lot of the options are dead, and unless you're visiting the Spanish shops on Portobello Road, you're fucked.

Eating chorizo and empanada for lunch is a deadly combination to my health, but when I'm back home in Spain, it must be done 🫑

I didn't realise it as a kid visiting Spain, but my nan living across the IRL Spencer Mansion must've had some influence on my life growing up...

It genuinely feels wrong for someone to not only have a bachelor's degree, but also a master's AND a doctorate, then replace your brain with ChatGPT.

It's taken me years to get comfortable writing about video games and these frauds aren't even writing their own shit πŸ’€

On the train to the airport, and sitting in front of me is an actual doctor of philosophy from the University of Oxford, who, using ChatGPT, is "writing" vast documentation on a study project they're on.

I'm stunned by how many people I see using AI for everything. It's fucked.

Mr X was foundational, but mostly limited to the RPD during a playthrough, while Nemesis, however, felt like THE relentless pursuer throughout RE3.

He shares some similarities, but Nemesis feels like that's where the proper idea of a stalker clicked into place; especially in the original game.

We've updated our Top 10 Resident Evil Games ranked list on IGN, which, of course, I've turned into a video!

We've also included an "IGN's Editor Picks" section on our site version, and I'd argue my #ResidentEvil ranking is perfect 🫑

For the past few days, I've been witnessing series newcomers bemoan the inclusion of Blister Heads in #ResidentEvilRequiem...

Anyhow, hope they enjoy prior games if revisited!

There's something inherently funny about Victor Gideon, who looks objectively evil, working at a medical centre, and the regular staff not questioning it.

I know he's working on "experimental therapies", but, as a new hire, would you not be like "nah"?

Raccoon City Syndrome? Requiem taught me everything I need to know.

Oh no... It looks like I'll be in London around 279 days from now 😬

We recently had Grace Ashcroft, AKA Angela Sant'Albano, in our office, to answer some questions, and react to some silly Resident Evil Requiem memes...

Never thought I'd have to try and explain what 6-7 is to a Resi protagonist, but here we are!

I'll be freelancing bits here and there, so if you're looking for a writer, video producer, content creator, or consultant, or just want to update your press list, I'm at that.zoe.dels at gmail dot com.

Change is scary, but if not now, when?

Zoe is a fantastic video producer, and the work she's done at Eurogamer was proof of that. Horror game deep dives, extended gameplay breakdowns and more, you'd be a fool not to consider her for freelance and beyond.

Please, do share Zoe's work with those who need a great editor. She won't miss 🫑

Ian is a legend, and a lovely one at that! I had the pleasure of hosting and producing videos alongside him during Gamescom, and it was genuinely the highlight of my trip.

In 2017, before my time at IGN, he offered me advice and kind words, and I've always appreciated that. Hire Ian, please!

Me when Leon promises he "didn't hit any vitals", despite shooting my friends and family into Swiss cheese during the events of #ResidentEvilRequiem:

Traditional solitaire? Not for me. A dark fantasy adaptation with a cursed game vibe? Genuinely a brilliant time.

A proper #SteamNextFest gem, and like how Balatro was a weirdly fun introduction to poker, Forbidden Solitaire can do the same for, well, solitaire! I really need more 😭
