My wife gave me a platinum trophy replica at our wedding ceremony in January, which was a very cute and cool thing to do.

Pretty much this. They’re both short, two is vastly superior, but the real magic is playing them in order. The updated portraits in Suikoden 1 in the remaster help a little—the old ones were so ugly.

It really does look like ai. I would not be surprised if the forest was

The original FFVII strategy guide is so good—it has that screenshot under aerith’s limit breaks where she’s renamed Biatch

And you like never play as anyone important in these games. “Here’s a 007 live service game where you’re just an office worker. Please play this continuously for 5 years.”

That they were working on a “live service god of war title” could be instructive. Did they pitch this or was it foist upon them? Did anyone actually want a GoW live service game…?

I had some major qualms with both of these remakes, & it does relieve me that they won’t be doing a Bloodborne remake, but this is shocking. Bluepoint seemed like a well-oiled machine, and their games reviewed well

Hard to believe this move is more profitable than just throwing them another remake

I never thought Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom were roleplaying games, but maybe…

Fantastic color balance—extremely readable despite being only three(?) colors!

When I was younger, I would cyber bully/threaten Kid Rock on Twitter, but deleted all of it when he started winding up for a run for public office.

Mastering every job with one character is truly a fool’s errand, but I am a fool

Had to get the platinum trophy in one of my all-time favorite games. Trophies and RPGs are a match made in heaven (unless you require multiple playthroughs of a 40+ hour game, a transgression that sends you straight to hell)

I will say it over and over: abolishing and prosecuting ice is the *moderate* position.

People keep saying the codenames in Metal Gear Solid sound like Megaman X bosses, so I decided to give them actual designs. Matches the scale of my other X mockups.

Something I've been sitting on for several years that I finally decided to wrap up tonight.

Abolishing ICE is the moderate position.

I absolutely will not vote for a candidate in any race unless they are openly advocating for putting every single ICE agent on trial.

Finished this Kirby stinger transition! I got carried away and did some lowpoly 3D in Blockbench for the version where he crashes

Watching the Democrats deal with the Trump administration is like watching turn based combat in an action RPG.

“Nooo you have to wait your turn to attack”

“Noooo you can’t just move out of the way of my spell, you have to roll to dodge”

Get real

Here's the clean video version of this Yoshi flipnote that was animated on a 3DS using Flipnote Studio 3D

I included a version where you can see how different the animation looks if you hide one layer fully!

Which worked out great bc I had no idea they had additional dialog until the first time agrias started yapping and I was like HMMMMmmmmm?

Ah, yeah historically I avoided using story chars bc they are too strong, but on Tactician I kinda needed them, so I decided to do a “story team” & “side quest team”of generics that I renamed. It has really helped me to not-over level, tho here at the end of the game I am starting to dominate anyway

It can kill the battle pacing for sure, but seeing Agrias and Mustadio argue with Delita, and then Cid argue with Elmdore and Dycedarg was worth the price of entry alone imo

The biggest value added imo are the voice acting and additional dialog. Having Agrias, Cid, and Mustadio further developed by making comments or quips in battle go so far to further develop characters that are largely static after recruitment

For my money, this is the only way to play this game now
