When it was airing, I remember liking it a lot for it being styled like an off-brand Freakazoid. After it went off the air, I acquired some of the official VHS tapes and it felt far more clumsy than I remembered and I fear it would fare much worse if I watched it now.

More Rites! More Quest for Glory 5! More #SavingOften! The Hero of Silmaria waters his hydrangeas so they stay hydrated. They can run, but they can't hydra. Uh, something about hydraulics? I don't know. This week @sousourocket.bsky.social, @mewd.bsky.social and I fight a hydra.

IN YOUR LIFE YOU WILL ENCOUNTER TYPES OF GUY YOU COULDN'T POSSIBLY IMAGINE.
IT'S ACTUALLY A VERY SOLID ARGUMENT AGAINST SOLIPSISM.
OH THIS IS ALL IN YOUR HEAD? YOU MEAN YOUR HEAD INVENTED *THAT* GUY? YEAH THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT. IDIOT.

I feel like a depressing number of Americans were attracted to the idea of living under authoritarianism due to the false assumption that an Authoritarian government would be more competent.

Drew my favorite evil tree Exdeath <3 #finalfantasy

Pronouncing the ham in Bahamut like ham in a sandwich

Making all my characters bad at everything so I can write what I know

Three panel comic. Panel 1: baby monkeys in overalls jumping on a bed, having fun. Panel 2: one of the monkeys falls over the edge of the bed, reaching out as he falls. Panel 3: one of the other monkeys, now looking super buff and badass, grabs him by the arm to save him heroically. “Monkey Stronger Together.”

A rabbit in overalls and a goat in pants are sitting on the ground drawing pictures. The rabbit is saying “ART POSES A THREAT TO CORPORATOLRATIC SYSTEMS BECAUSE A PURPOSE OF ART IS TO REMIND THE INDIVIDUAL OF THEIR INHERENT AUTONOMY.”, the goat adds “THEIR HUMANITY.”

Make Art (1/4)

Quest for Glory 5 rolls on on #SavingOften! @sousourocket.bsky.social, @mewd.bsky.social and I have freed the fishing villages, and now it's onward to the Rite of Conquest! Surely a thief of Adonis's caliber will be stealthy and silent as he invades the island of Sifnos.

we live in the ruins of a greater civilization

Remember all the "In Trump's Second Term, the Resistance is Dead" headlines?

Thank you! My favorite is Rosella and Edgar looking sweet together

An oval separated into 8 sections to represent the 8 King's quest games. There is a circle is in the middle that says "Saving Often, the quest to kiss everyone" King's Quest 1 has Graham crouching. King's Quest 2 has Graham covered in sapphire jewellery. King's Quest 3 has Gwydion looking into a mirror and his reflection shows him in the style of the "handsome squidward meme" King's Quest 4 has Rosella holding a rose that a blushing Edgar gave her. King's Quest 5 has Graham in his winter coat with Cedric the Owl wrapped up with him in the coat to keep him warm. King's Quest 6 has Alex smelling a single strand of hair from Princess Cassima. King's Quest 7 has Valanice looking shocked in the style of the Italian Spiderman meme. King's Quest 8 has Connor proudly smiling

Some King's Quest fanart inspired by the YouTube Channel where I watched it, Such Minutiae (Saving Often)

Thank you for such a great playthrough of this series!

King Graham in his winter coat with Cedric the Owl wrapped up with him to keep him warm. The caption over it says "Thank you for the Snug-a-looooooo" A sketch of Alex wearing shorts with long socks. He is looking annoyed and shouting "HEY!" A sketch of a frog with big lips. The caption says "Mmmmmm Gooooooood" and another one that says "why mmm good??" A sketch of Alex smelling a single strand of hair from Princess Cassima. The caption says "Oh yeah, that's the stuff. Still smells like Mordack's kitchen"

A sketch of Rosella holding an axe and pointing at it to threaten some trees. The trees look scared and one says "Oh my God she could cut us!"

It started off like this but half way through I thought of better framing and drew the other one. But these make more sense with the text. It's a bit of a mess but it was fun to draw.

Some context for 1 sketch, Souha said that Cedric looked cold and that Graham should keep him warm in the coat :)

Well-deserved recognition.

Every morning it's fucking something

I feel like social media mostly incentivises the opposite, but recommending things you've enjoyed that people have put hard work into is good for the soul IMO

Zelda is definitely also heavily Tolkein/DnD-inspired but it's still the kind of series that goes "Link has pointed ears, and magical abilities, and a mystical bond with nature. anyway our Elves are Fish"

“I’ve reviewed over 50 sticky toffee puddings” is an incredibly powerful way to begin a video

I love Star Fox and Metroid and people have the gall to complain about Adventures of Link

Whenever I see people put it at the bottom of tier lists, I have restrain my reaction because it is a great game, just different.

And even a ‘bad’ Zelda game usually hovers around a B-, which is a fantastic level of consistency relative to other franchises.

Happens to the best of us

A lot of my issues with the game’s story are a result of how the political environment has shifted since the game released and while it was in development. Which is too bad because I still love its puzzle boxes and also would prefer if my faith in humanity were less eroded.

Talos Principle 2 has the vibe of a harmless, nerdy co-worker who wears a ‘Science Rules!’ T-shirt and loves info dumping about history and going on scenic nature hikes. They crack jokes that get a polite chuckle and they love their cat dearly.

I found myself questioning if the author of the game’s story was right leaning due to how hard the narrative leans into tech Utopianism and how much it equates environmental anxiety to zealotry. But that doesn’t seem to be the artistic intent.

But, like, even the fact that the setting is about Artificial Intelligence picking up the pieces after humanity has gone extinct is politically loaded right now. This setting detail was inherited from the first game, made before GenAI was in the public consciousness.

And to be fair, it’s not necessarily fair to expect the game to have anticipated the current political landscape. It’s not commenting on that. It’s largely a story about a science positive optimism. It’s about taking an active role to think on how to make things better.

But I also don’t think that we should put humanity in a tiny box in one corner of the planet where nothing new can be created and we fail to even maintain the resources we have.
