Early candidate "dumbest thing". More funny than anything but really but still

Would love to see the metric decrease in activity among those I'm following as we enter in to the 10AM timeframe that Hollow Knight Silksong releases. Happy release day to y'all

Dude if this A$AP Rocky album is taking as long as it is so that he can get as many people together for the sequel to 1 Train then I’ll be the happiest man alive

Think I need a palette cleanser game -- I've started but haven't had the desire to get back in to the big single players just yet (South of Midnight, Yakuza Like a Dragon, Doom Dark Ages) after E33. Playing a lot of REMATCH though.

Anybody got something for me that's new, short and sweet?

idk man I kinda want Clair Obscur Expedition 33 to have another blow up of people finally getting around to it after the hype died down just so we can get another burst of "holy shit this game absolutely bangs" posts in the feed

Happy New JID Release Day to all who celebrate.

It's me. I'm celebrating

The traditional work laptop, to me, is more of a 'modern' take on the old skipping stone. A rectangular disc that can be thrown across the body, like a Frisbee. Outdoors. Near water, if possible.

That’s crazy because if my wife said the “yall can” and I looked for ten minutes for that can, she would come home and find it within 10 seconds. That’s the true power of wives who can find things that may or may not exist

wtf man

Heart goes out to anybody impacted by job losses today at Xbox, or literally every other company. Hard to not feel a level of dread when the shareholders need their due.

I'm just tired, man. I'm tired and my heart hurts for everyone.

I don't play, don't watch, don't have any other soccer games in the library. This game is HEAT. Simple, easy to understand control schemes that still allow for high skill ceilings. Fun and exciting gameplay that doesn't allow the team to get toxic since winning by 4 ends the match. It's great. A+++

Stanley Parable-lookin' sign right here

It hurts my heart to say that DOOM: TDA is just very aggressively okay. The shield doing a lawn-mower on hordes of enemies is very fun. Everything else is a head-scratchingly boring mechanic. Why are there no aerial dogfights on the dragon, why are we locked in to a dodging minigame? Weird decisions

Dude #REMATCH has all the flair of NBA Street with the vibes of Rocket League. It is strikingly fun to play and I think that the skill ceiling is high for this one. There are a few bugs here and there but the Mercy Rules (winning by four ends the game) and short matches pull me right back in

Picked this one up because it looks like Fire Emblem, it plays and acts like FE. I starve for any and all new FE content and games. Can't say it's got a FE-caliber story, but hey neither was Fire Emblem: Engage. Giving this one a Fire Emblem: Engage out of Fire Emblem: Awakening. #DarkDeityII

This whole album is so good. Is it Certified No Skips? It might actually be No Skips Certified.

I continuously love "Hey [person] do you know how this whole thing operates?" ...and the answer being something completely incorrect and off-the-wall, and Ben's immediate response being "That's right, it's Patreon!"

i'm Sprong
dawg she got me
got me doin thing i'd never do
if you aint been im tellin you
i'm Sprong

Just a reminder, if you enjoy content like the Rapid-Fire Interview with Hideki Kamiya on YouTube - supporting MinnMax directly on Patreon is the best way to keep us around. youtu.be/tJRVue2kPNA

the Marathon alpha released recently and its environments are covered with assets lifted from poster designs i made in 2017.

Thank you for validating me on this, I feel like I'm the only person that's ever played Buck Bumble. Nobody talks about this forgotten game anymore

I'd like to formally let the world know that the Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 OST absolutely RIPS. It is truly a masterwork. Phew

In response to the Polygon and Giant Bomb news, I created an indie and worker-owned games media starter pack.

I’ll keep adding to it, so suggestions and recommendations are greatly appreciated. Please share!

I spent well over a month talking to investors to get the actual data behind what’s happening to the games industry. I was going to say “enjoy!” but it’s, uh, not great.

I can’t tell you how happy I was to have my very own Red Wedding moment in Last of Us Season 2

I don't know if I'll end up finishing Blue Prince -- it feels like I'm getting to a point of diminishing returns in my runs -- but what is here in the first like, 20 days of exploring the mansion is phenomenal. Loving this game for the moment

Gonna have to treat yourself to Links Awakening next if you haven’t hit that yet.

Pretty heckin’ pleased to have a question of mine pop up in Community Questions on @minnmax.bsky.social last week!
