I make in-depth walkthroughs of PS1-era video games with attention to detail, completion, preservation, enhancement and accessibility.
Screenshots and videos are my own, covers are not.
Alt text-friendly.

I've spent a lot of time organizing my walkthroughs (and livestreams) into playlists!

YouTube doesn't have channel-wide playlist search and scrolling through 500 of them is insanity, so I've made categorized spreadsheets sorted alphabetically so that you can find up-to date videos.

Clearing out the second layer of the expansion's final dungeon, the boss' strength is in numbers, so it's a tough cookie on Chaos difficulty.

I keep seeing folks say they'll just accept a Teen Friendly account on Discord rather than scan or ID and I don't know if I wanna mass normalize leaving NSFW pals out in the cold yet again. Especially with all the censorship stuff goin on I think we gotta stand with the freaks now more than ever.

There's only one correct way to respond to such release.

If you must have a PC copy, pick GoG versions.
They are DRM-free. If you care about the best experience, use the PS1 versions with graphical settings tweaked to your liking (PGXP removes wobble, for example).

Simple fact is this:

If you’re a member of the “gender critical” movement, you’re part of a pedophile ring whether you want to be or not.
You’re not crazy. The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.
