Godly lineup this week, still waiting on friends to come over for a Perfect Blue rewatch too. Last week we even fit in Pulse, and Kinki TWICE

My spread from the newsletter zine back when the magazine formatting was still a little green, if anyone needs a push to idk emulate the ps3 version instead of supporting rgg

I really hope the Yakuza Kiwami 3 shit doesn't have people skip 3 altogether, because that's my favorite in the series so far and it already seems to have been downtrodden since the Kiwamis were taking all the attention leading into the new entries

I need to get back into Arena casually, that was a good time

There are a few notable things in P3, for example, that betrayed me especially hard coming off the original story, with the game fully knowing what my expectations were and working to subvert them in some really interesting ways even with the "undo button" mechanic, which I really loved

They all work in harmony, there are subtle changes that impacted my broader read of the world and make it clear they're not intended to be replacements (hence labelling themselves sequels), but they stay close enough to the og stories to work standalone as well, if you're a more casual enjoyer!

Oh shit! I loved it, I think it's a perfect parallel to Disco and I really respect how antagonistic it is to the audience both in how it lays out its narrative and how hopeless its atmosphere is. It reminded me of my time with The Last Policeman, but a bit more artistically minded and self-aware

This month's newsletter is up for free, featuring a 3-page review of Pathologic 3, marking the first time I've written about my favorite series, plus a ton of new art, several book reviews (Sacred & Terrible Air, Cosmos, Invisible Cities), and a list of 12 new and upcoming indies :))

It makes me wonder if sites need to be clearer in outlining the intent and direct algorithmic outcome of reviews, or if that even matters when customers aren't aiming for critical thought in the first place

On the same wavelength, I think a lot about review etiquette on storefronts for books and DVDs, and how strange it is to see negative reviews not because the product itself was flawed, but because someone disliked the plot

Among the lineup is one with a bunch of guys in SWAT gear huddled behind a wall with an unaware civilian approaching, and bold text saying "'WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?' SMOKE THIS MOTHERFUCKER!!" and I thought it was so dumb, but now I feel like that's something they'd actually say

I had this mundane cop horror series planned out a while ago, but ever since I started it things have just been getting worse, and now I don't know if I want to go back. Anyways fuck ICE this is beyond the point of satire now

Missing Toro Inoue this holiday season

Truly unbeatable when the temps clash and you get that nice fog and some grass is showing through the snow, and the crows are noisy...
