Absolutely DROWNING in games at the moment, and it’s only gonna get busier with Avowed, Tomb Raider 4-6, Nightreign Network Test, the Steam Next Fest, Monster Hunter Wilds, and that’s only February 😵‍💫 It’s exhausting, overwhelming, and exhilarating and I LOVE it. Games are so wonderful.

So no one was going to tell me that Bayonetta 2 is one of the slickest and most enjoyable action games ever made AND that it has a mech piloting section?? Gee THANKS, everyone. I coulda been playing this for the last 11 years!! 🥺

All regional release times for Eternal Strands, which launches tomorrow at 11AM ET.

Eternal Strands releases tomorrow on PC, PS5, & Xbox Game Pass! I had a great time with the complete title. Yellow Brick Games has made a mega unique combat system!

You can check out my full review on YouTube or TikTok:

South of Midnight launches April 8!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Oh my word I absolutely cannot wait 🥹🥹🥹

I hate posting to YouTube shorts. I get the most angry, mean, and just needlessly cruel comments over there. Very glad that TikTok is still kicking. I don’t think I would have made it past three posts if I’d started on YouTube shorts.

If you time a dodge roll right as you hit the ground it will take out a bunch of fall damage 👀

Awesome selection! I look forward to seeing your thoughts on each game as you finish ‘em! Dungeons of Hinterberg, Dredge, and Loddlenaut are all ones I particularly enjoyed. 🎉🎊

Eternal Strands (PC only) free Demo releases tomorrow, January 21st, on Steam and Epic Games Store at 11AM ET 🥳⌛Here's everything you need to know before you begin exploring the Enclave🔗http://bit.ly/3WpU8mT

If you’re a soulslike enjoyer, the demo for ‘The First Berserker: Khazan” is very enjoyable!

Very kind of you, I appreciate that. 💜

Nah, most of my videos I would simultaneously upload to YouTube shorts. So, thankfully, I’ve got most of the content saved.

Thank you very kindly. Yeah, I’m bummed but I feel way worse for the people who actually were making their money on TikTok. Their income just snapped away! It’s mega gross.

Very kind of you and much appreciated. Thank you 💜

TikTok going kaput stinks for a million reasons (I’m totally being selfish when I say this), but I’m way bummed that I no longer have the sizable following I had. I loved having game devs reach out to me. 🥲 Way nicer than having to work through proxy content creator sites. Mega bummed about it. 🙁

Forced my parents to watch ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 2’ all so I that I can force them to one day watch ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 3’.

Fun night! I think they enjoyed it. I completely agree with my mom’s ranking of a ‘B’ for SH2.

I’ve never live-streamed my reaction to a gaming showcase before, but I just might do it for next week’s Xbox Developer Direct. On the one hand, it could be fun! On the other hand, I might scream with too much excitement about Doom: The Dark Ages & South of Midnight….

Having BluePoint make a live-service game is an astronomical waste of a talented studio. I hope this cancellation doesn’t endanger their existence.

Ah the eternal quandary of being excited to see people’s reactions to new & exciting gaming news but, unfortunately, having to see people’s reactions to new & exciting gaming news. 😔

THIS IS AN XBOX reminder to watch Dev_Direct in one week!!

Say hello to one of our four playable Divers, the curious and rambunctious Vivi! 💫

The battery-inspired soles are PERFECT. Absolutely love this design breakdown stuff. ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Switch 2 hardware looks sleek! The potential for the joy cons having mouse capability is WACKY and I’d love to see some games take advantage of that.

My only gripe is that, at a glance, the joy cons don’t seem much more comfortable to hold… Maybe they are in practice! TBD

I’m very glad that lots of people seem to enjoy PoE 2! I just see more people playing PoE and constantly talking about a different game than actually talking about PoE. I’m grateful for your info and insight tho! Thank you many 🙂‍↕️

The wait shall continue. 😔

I’m calmly waiting for the day that a Path of Exile 2 player can tell me about the game without simultaneously expressing contempt for some facet of Diablo 4.

Visual guide for Hazel Flood. The South of Midnight logo is in the upper left hand corner with 'Hazel Flood' directly beneath it. Beneath those are front and back-facing portrait shots of Hazel. Near-center to the image are front and back-facing full body renders of Hazel. A line is drawn from each of the main elements to a smaller image of the element in greater detail, including Hazel's earrings, her shirt's logo, her rings, her bracelet, her jacket's logo, and the logo's camo pattern.

Happy New Year! 🎉 With South of Midnight releasing this year, we figured it's about time for you to start getting those cosplays and creative projects ready, so here to help is our handy Hazel visual guide.

As Hazel hones her skills as a Weaver, players will have the ability to upgrade her weaving powers, allowing her to push, pull, dodge, and immobilize enemies during combat.

Yay! Turok: Origins has a Bluesky! I’m looking forward to learning more about the game in 2025, y’all! 🥳
