This guy's defense blew a huge lead against Brian Callahan? Huh ... yeah, guess that is something I could see coming.

Happy to have completed the hotly anticipated sequel to an indie smash hit that was released in September two weeks after the announcement (Silksong), now I get to start the hotly anticipated sequel to an indie smash hit that was released in September two weeks after the announcement (Hades II).

What I really like about this story is that he describes feeling inadequate and being challenged and using that as a moment of personal growth instead of getting angry at the people who challenged him

Worth noting that the pats' pass rate was down to 49% in week 2; I think they played like a pass-first team week 1 (69%, 2nd in the league) but that's not what they want their identity to be. Being more balanced was a point of emphasis from Vrabel last week.

So I think genre basically should never be understood as a strict list of features or as a single defining feature but as a set of shared ideas that are drawn from a commonly-agreed-upon canon.

The bosses are beautiful warriors - only by respecting them can I match their skill and strength

The random bugs are dirt under my feet and do not deserve my time, which is why I jump face-first into them 5 times in a row

genuinely and unbelievably delighted by how silksong just took so long because they were having fun, staying offline, and going at their own pace. human beings need more opportunities to work like this.

I sincerely believe that we, as a society, don't make fun of him enough for that. We should all be laughing about this at all times.

I'm fairly certain there's a checkbox when you install on Steam to say if you want a desktop shortcut created - it certainly doesn't do that for me
