And here’s my obligatory acknowledgement that they don’t care about sounding like stupid creepy perverts because broadcasting their contempt is literally the only point they wanna make.

Nonetheless, it’s always worth remembering how much their arguments rely on stupid creepy pervert talk.

When the gendercritters are judging someone’s looks by saying shit like “it’s the skeleton that matters,” do you think they’re aware of how much they sound like necrophiles?

I can’t help but think it’s a bit peculiar to wanna bang a pile of bones instead of a living person with skin and stuff.

Oh for fuck’s sake.

Cozyfication has gotten far beyond ridiculous.

Rhagana Doomslayer @rhagana.bsky.social · 3d

Absolutely wild that @commandersterling.bsky.social was ranting this week about how the word"cozy" has become pervasive in video games and I see this at my local library today

Poster at the library's video section advertising "cozy horror" movies; it's a collage of original posters for the films The Fog, Practical Magic, Misery, Werewolves Within, Let the Right One In, Hocus Pocus, Sleepy Hollow (Tim Burton version), Scare Me, and An American Werewolf in London.

I reviewed Hades II. Its only significant drawback is that Hades came out first, which really isn't a problem considering it's just as good as one of the most impressive games ever made.

Ooh, I really like the 90s cartoon version of Mysterio and this looks great.

I very much like it!

The funny thing is, because I’m still not set up to record at home with all the moving stuff still around, I was literally planning to use the woods for a video 😂.

Oh it’s absolutely disgusting, for sure. It’s a wonder how any of them think they’re good people.

Commander Sterling @commandersterling.bsky.social · 5d

I can only guess they think that a lack of videos means a lack of home to make videos in. Hell of a leap from the reality of “I’m moving house and working four separate writing jobs.”

Commander Sterling @commandersterling.bsky.social · 5d

I’m still entertained by how stupid this rumor is.

It’s almost touching that in the absence of new videos from me, they’ve resorted to making up weird stories to fill the emptiness they apparently feel.

How could I be homeless when I’ve always got their heads?

Commander Sterling @commandersterling.bsky.social · 5d

Absolutely. We were allowed to keep any furniture we wanted (the original owner passed and we’re renting from the daughter). There are so many tat storage options it’s ridiculous.

Commander Sterling @commandersterling.bsky.social · 5d

I’m gonna guess they think it’s funny, or think it’s an indictment of my character in some way, because these grifters are scum.

The surreal thing is, I’ve moved to a place I’ve dreamed of. I’m in a bungalow that’s like a proper old granny one almost purpose built for my kind of disabilities.

The move itself was a disaster, but the actual place is perfect and I feel incredibly lucky.

Commander Sterling @commandersterling.bsky.social · 5d

Wait, the grifter mill on YouTube is claiming I’m homeless? What the fuck 😂?

According to the message I got, that’s apparently the rumor being put around. It’s far from the stupidest BS ever spread about me, but it’s definitely in the dumbass category.

Really shitty thing to crow about though.

I also really like how you can go back to stealth after fighting in one location, because only the nearby enemies hear the commotion. Much more flexible than having an entire camp suddenly alerted at once.

I remember combat quickly feeling trivial in Tsushima. Loved the game, but I think they balanced things much better here. At least so far.

Commander Sterling @commandersterling.bsky.social · 5d

It’s something of a different beast to Tsushima. A bit harder to get into initially, but the payoff is much more worth it I think.

The instakill weapon throws steal the show though. Pick up a dropped weapon, look at an enemy, throw it. Never misses, kills almost any mob. Fun every fucking time.

OP on its own, but offset by your fragility and the tougher combat elements. Beautifully done stuff.

Like, it’s almost “comical” how every duel is in some exaggeratedly breathtaking setting. All the flower fields and waterfalls and stuff. It’s just so committed to it that it works every time.

They struck a delicate balance between difficulty and effortless badassery, too.

I love how Ghost of Yotei’s entire design philosophy is so obviously “Do the cool thing.”

Even when it’s challenging, and it can be plenty challenging, every element is channeled into making the protagonist, player, and environment as cool as possible.

I want Sucker Punch to do John Wick.

I think they've been going a while? Kidd Bandit hooked me up with them, because she's an absolute darling when we're not trying to kill each other.
