Ooooh fuck I'd forgotten all about that game. Wow lol

I really enjoyed the preview build I got to play ages back. Unsure if the Next Fest demo is just it or not but it's well worth a look if a samurai-fantasy RPG with XCOM combat sounds like your thing!

I held off on listening to the final episode of The Comedy Button for almost a year.

I'm not sure I can do the final WTF right now.

They also did this incredible portrait of me, my wife, & her little dog a couple of years ago.

Please hire Kendra to do anything & everything. They're the best.

Rogue Warrior, but I also kind of loved it.

That's pretty much been my impression of the ROG handhelds on the whole.

I closed about a dozen MIGW related browser tabs this morning.

It really bums me out that I mostly just feel dread & exhaustion at the launch of a new console now.

This cat looks like it’s about to start a fighting tournament to promote the strength of the Mishima Zaibatsu corporation

Tammi, yeah, that one. 2.1 @tammi.bsky.social · 3d

I found a 19th century Cat Villain!

A huge chonk of a fluffy cat sitting on a table near an open fire. The cat is cream and grey and appears to be shaped like a barrel in a fur coat. They are scowling fiercely with their moustache and bewhiskered ears apparently flowing back into the cold wind. There's a definite vibe that this villainous cat twirls their moustache as they evict orphans into the aforementioned blizzard and think Scrooge was an easy-going lightweight. They are magnificent.

Oh gosh, the next two weeks is so stacked with non-MS stuff.

Europa Universalis V, Jackbox 11, Bloodlines 2 (lol, I hope?), MK Legacy Kollection, The Fast & The Furious Arcade (which looks stupid fun??)

A tiny bit beyond that is Terminator 2-D: NO FATE which looks incredible.

Jam Walker @jamwa.bsky.social · 1d

Yep. Amused the Hell out of me to play through a week before PAX Australia though given how constantly everyone in it barks about the imminent threat of 'PAX'.

Jam Walker @jamwa.bsky.social · 1d

There's a new demo out for this as part of Steam Next Fest.

The game is pretty cool & I've been a little surprised to see absolutely nobody talking about it.

Happy Rocktober 13th to those who observe. 🤘
