Especially with Baldur's Gate 3 -- it's a tremendous game. But do I really want a TV show of it?

No....not really.

I loved Last of Us season 1. Couldn't make it past episode 3 for season 2.

I really liked Fallout season 1. Am struggling to find motivation to watch season 2.

This is just my personal opinion, but for a long time, there were no good video game movies/TV. Now, there might be too many...

My predictions for the Nintendo Direct.

Twitter in a nutshell.

I think they were trolling lol.

If Soulslikes are defined by their harsh difficulty, it doesn’t have that. Nor is there a bonfire system. Nor do you recover experience after dying. Nor is the storytelling environmental.

KH is an action-RPG. Nothing more. Can’t think of a single Soulslike element.

Media should not be using their platform to try and counter act what the public is doing.

As someone who has been to every E3 that existsed since 2015, and every SGF/IGN Live since -- most people's exhausting comes from the afterparties. The days can be long, yes. But no one is forcing you to go to the JW or The Fig and drink with people until 3am.

I understand why Geoff Keighly wants everyone to play Highguard.

I understand why Wildlight Ent. wants everyone to play Highguard.

What I don't understand is why so many fellow games media and journalists want people to play Highguard.

It's all I see. People just defending Highguard...weird...

You can tell the world is miserable by how many people WANT people to lose their jobs to AI.

Every time some AI thing comes out, the comments are filled with “game studios are dead. Office workers are dead.”

We’ve read books and seen movies about a dystopian future. Why actively cheer for it?

I’ve been at IGN for 10 years and I’ve never reviewed a single video game.

I feel like I’ve saved myself so much heartache. I will continue this trend.

I think if you ~need~ Twitter for literally any purpose you have made mistakes in the construction of your life/business or you are just lying to yourself

I mean this with zero shade thrown toward Concord or Highguard -- but I have to assume that any dev right now working on a hero type shooter has to be rethinking their strategy.

Heck, even with Arc Raiders, Marathon better bring the heat or it's just gonna get bulldozed.

IGN is celebrating its 30 year anniversary this year!

Grateful that I've been allowed to be part of 1/3rd of it!

I selfishly requested to edit this video so I could read @edgarallanbro.bsky.social's writing before everyone else.

Will never disappoints. And Cairn looks pretty great!

Five jobs I’ve had

McDonald’s (first job ever, loved it)
Security Guard (not bad tbh)
Target electronics (pretty fun!)
Fry’s Electronics Warehouse (miserable!)
IGN (the best!)

Even I’m baffled at how much I’m enjoying Assassins Creed Shadows.

What an absolute gem of a video game.

ICE gets applauded by republicans because ICE is just an alpha male power fantasy.

Highguard Is Yet Another Symptom – And Victim – Of A Rapidly Decaying Internet In an online ecosystem ruled by cynics, clip farmers, and ragebaiters (and built by those who seek to profit off them), Highguard never stood a chance of having a normal launch

The best part of this article is the part where @nathangrayson.bsky.social calls VaraDark a slop-Youtuber.

Honestly, bravo. More outlets need to call these mindless drones out.

People act like making $5k a month is good, but after that $3900 2017 Toyota Corolla payment, and $500 a month on coffee, there ain’t a whole heck of a lot left.

Haha that second one is funny and probably true 😆

Jeff the Land Shark should do double damage to Johnny Storm.

Storm and Thor should do more damage to Namor and Jeff.
