The endings of Life Is Strange, A Plague Tale: Requiem, and Arthur's story in Red Dead Redemption II.

In that order; nothing comes close to them for me.

The Plague Tale games have been on my mind so much lately.

I could never go through it all again, but I really miss them... there's something so special about them, and their effect has lasted so strongly with me ever since.

I know they were highly received but I wish more people experienced them.

Once again... no.

I hate it when a curiously gregarious pair of thugs, one large and one wiry, surprise me and beat the hell out of me in an attempt to ward me off of a mystery but who instead only confirm to me that I'm onto something.

an incredibly cool cat wearing sunglasses (it's me I'm the cat this is a profound visual metaphor)

Not even a slightly spontaneous person but I just woke up and within three minutes committed financial parkour and bought a whole new graphics card for my PC, entirely unplanned.

Rediscovered steroids and caffeine today for the sake of a family event and THOROUGHLY fucked myself up for the next week or so.

This'll be fun 🥲

Doing a low amount of activity and ME/CFS cranking up the dial for ‘all symptoms’

Been a really rough few weeks since I started some new meds and altering existing doses. No idea if any of it'll pay off; probably not, but it's worth trying.

Just looking forward to being halfway stable and capable of doing things again. It's times like this I feel more ghost than person. #MECFS

Pirates. Shanties. Mayan temples. Sharks. Digital recreation of the 18th Century Caribbean. And a powerful and emotional story, with an ending that made me cry like a baby.

Black Flag is by far my favorite Assassin's Creed game of all time.

Aya/Amunet with the Great Pyramid of Giza. The Pyramids were covered in white plasture during those thousands of years and would have stood out even more than they do today. Out of all the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World, it's the only one still standing/mostly intact.

Senu the Bonelli's Eagle flying over one of the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World, the Lighthouse of Alexandria.

Assassin's Creed: Origins admittedly has a special place in my heart. The Greco-Roman Ancient Egyptian setting was just incredible, and it's my favorite of the recent RPG Assassin's Creeds. Not a perfect game, but one that gave me amazing memories.

Defeating the enemy empath with an anxiety attack

There's a newer model now but the Ultimate is what I have! The '2.4G for Windows' version -- just plug in its USB stick and it works like an Xbox controller, with two assignable extra buttons underneath (limited to existing buttons, not Windows keys sadly).

Had it a few years and it's been perfect.

...I don't have the self-awareness to know what these reveal about me.

I like overly theatrical yet sincere melodrama? And also some sad Tom Cruise yearning?

Calling this a "tribute edition" while reanimating a dead man's voice with AI generated material stolen from his actual work to erase someone else's is insane; there's so many layers to how fucked up this is, and it's all coming from the worst kind of fanboy entitlement.

It's pathetic.

I'm neither a League of Legends player or fan but seeing their cinematic trailers in a cinema would be like a religious experience, they're insane. I still remember the one time I did see a CG cinematic in theatres, for Uncharted 4, and it was the coolest thing ever.

Cinematic trailers for videogames should be shown in theatres.

Seduce your local masochist by assaulting strangers til one gets hard

A bit of the grass is greener effect but ME/CFS can really make you realise how much you enjoyed things that at the time you may have seen more as boring or a chore.

Like I miss cooking so much I wish I could cook. I wanna try new recipes and always taste different stuff.

First episode done! Loving it, and so happy it has that same magic the first game (and its prequel) had.

So excited to see where this goes.

John Brown

Michael Shannon

Still waiting for that John Brown biopic starring Michael Shannon I imagined once and have never been able to let go. Need it.

They buried osama bin Laden at sea in an effort to get James Cameron to make a biopic about him

That is, assuming Brian Tyler doesn't return (he won't) — his score for The Dark World is one of the MCU's best, and it kills me they immediately abandoned all his themes he established in it.

It's the Marvel soundtrack I listen to the most to this day.

Considering her work on Prey and all her Assassin's Creed soundtracks, I'd love if Sarah Schachner scored the next (and presumably final) Thor movie.

Proposing a law where if your house alarm goes off for more than 20 minutes, your doors automatically unlock and people can go in and take whatever

Why is the bottom of the tea, arguably the most tea of the tea, disgusting

Life is Strange 2's official landscape poster, with the two leads walking through the woods.

Kinda dumb but I like to do this thing where I time the season (or weather) a game is set in to the time of year I play it.

Been waiting all year for this, but now it's autumn I'm finally starting Life is Strange 2!

Plus I'd like a massive improvement to Green Lantern combat, assuming we'll get another Lantern in a potential sequel. I was disappointed in the last two given the insane, literally limitless potential there.
