and who could forget this classic: β€œI do not consider you to be truly alive. Ergo, I will not be guilty of murder if I kill you.” Ah, moral relativism.

I saw this bookmark on reddit with a Final Fantasy themed bookmark, and it got me thinking: what other quotes from the series would be good bookmarks?

It wasn’t until I introduced my little brother to the series that I started to β€œget it”

He was gonna see all that blood and violence and stuff eventually anyway

Now he’ll be ready for it when it pops up in Animal Crossing

In other news, I have a new fear unlocked with the cameras that can track your face and map it in game

That said, I am a sucker for sinking my money into projects that won’t release until after I’m dead

So … I guess we’re good to go?? 🀷

He was pissed. His save data was totally fine, but our bro code had been violated in a way that was beyond repair

Apparently selling all of his stuff and releasing all his other pokemon was GoInG toO FaR 🀷

RIP charizard, you’re better off without him

so when he was sleeping, I grabbed his gameboy and caught as many of them as I could fit in his pokebox / party (water gun party, heh)

I wanted to see the look on his face when he woke up

When I was a kid one of my friends was CONVINCED that capturing missingno would delete your save data. I, however, was not so sure…

Shout out to Francis Coulombe for simultaneously making me want to brush my teeth more, but also make me have a panic attack for even thinking about it

I don’t normally play horror games, but I’ve been COMPLETELY charmed by Look Outside

This game’s got it all: rat babies, flesh monsters, and shady characters spying on me while I sleep. Really takes me back to my childhood 🀷

Nintendo crossed a line. Our findings show, they have the power to retroactively block legally bought physical games from working without updates AND THEY DID SO! Multiple times. Following the introduction of Trojan Horse "game-key card", this is another attack on physical media.

What are you playing on it these days Kristian? I've been really enjoying Halls of Torment (very akin to Vampire Survivors)

There hasn't been a single game in my life where I've thought, "Man I wish could ask this NPC absolutely anything I want and they'd respond."

Even if I had, it'd be novel for about 2 minutes.

I'll take 50 handcrafted lines from an actual writer than 1 million from a glorified chat bot any day.

Big agree, and I think it's safe to say it has ruined other gaming menus / UIs for me. The amount of art on display is wild, and sometimes I just zone out looking at the characters.

If you haven't played FF7 or FF9 with mods (7th Heaven & Moguri, respectively) they're definitely worth considering.

They breathe life into those games while respecting / preserving the original vision!πŸ”₯

From one YouTube video-essay-person to another, I can tell you put a ton of work into this. Big kudos Moomba! πŸ‘

While watching your video, I couldn't help but think about the Mario x Rabbids game that came out a couple years ago. I enjoyed it, but also found the "overly cute chaos" grating. πŸ˜…

I hope for the gaming parents (and parents of young gamers) that Nintendo does better in the future.

Their decision to take the Switch eShop review system offline allows these exploitive works to blend in so much easier, and it's putting kids at serious riskβ€”who knows what's in these fake games.

The more important question:

When will Nintendo acknowledge and take action against the *pile* of broken games, useless apps, and blatant content theft going on within its eShop ecosystem?

(Ssearching for "alarm clock" or "calculator" yields dozens of 'games' that are permanently 'on-sale'.)

Some initial thoughts:

How messed up is it that the creator even had to go to social media in the first place?

Like, imagine failing to moderate your own ecosystem this badly that creators feel the need to turn to Reddit for help. It's giving "we don't care about our gamers, OR our creators."

I'm so glad to that Backrooms Horror Escape has FINALLY been de-listed from the Nintendo eShop.

It's wild that it took several days and the creator going to social media to get the stolen content pulled down, but at least they can move on (for now).
