Finished Metroid Prime 4. I enjoyed it a lot. Excellent game. With regard to the common bugbears, I found the desert section weirdly zen like sailing in Windwaker and I actually liked the NPCs. I do have a few frustrations, but they're in no way dealbreakers. Def a top 2025 game for me.

At the last boss of Prime 4. I have 100% items and 99% of the scans because I somehow MISSED THE FIRST SCAN IN THE GAME HOW DID I DO THAT I SPENT THE ENTIRE INTRO STAGE IN SCAN VISOR TO AVOID THIS VERY THING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

The *very* first words in Octopath Traveler are “you can go anywhere.”

The *very* first path I tried to explore when I left town resulted in this screen.

This is such peak videogames that I can’t bring myself to legitimately complain about it.

Why is the nearest proper sheet music store a 45 minute drive away. This city is too damn big. Looks like I’m transitioning to iPad sheet music. Now I wish I had gone with the bigger screen.

I picked a bad time to remember how much fun it is to play the piano. I can't exactly ship a whole Baldwin upright 2000 miles, but it's also probably not the smartest idea to buy a digital piano when I *do* have an upright back home. A frustrating spot, this.

Goodbye friends, I am gone.

I am delighted to see that multiple speedfriends have gotten runs into AGDQ. I won’t be able to make it out due to still being neck deep in flight school, but I’ll be watching and cheering you all on!

thinking about this screenshot from Columbo that makes it look like a 90s point-and-click adventure game

I sure am back…

Never thought I’d get misty eyed at an autumn drive, but dammit I’ve missed this place. I’ll be back in the desert in a few hours, but I’m spite of all the jokes, this place is still home.

The hunt for CD albums I want on my ongoing quest to break away from streaming audio scored two major wins recently.

1000% hate how I cannot get my hands on 80s JPop and JJazz CDs for less than a kidney right now because of these asinine tariffs, and the few US retailers who have them lying around have all raised their prices accordingly because they know we have no other choice than to pay inflated prices.

If you had told 2015 me that in 2025 I would have gone to streaming audio and then gone BACK to ripping CDs using an old optical drive in an enclosure, I would have been very confused, but here we are.

Watching Fuwamoco play Fatal Frame 2 and all these years later that game and its main antagonist still haunt me. Seeing that one cutscene again still made my blood run ice cold. I don't think I've ever played another game that so thoroughly petrified me and gave me actual nightmares.

Just had an absolutely cursed idea. The Lorax but in the realm of edm.

Officially and legally instrument rated as of today. I can fly airplanes in clouds and without being able to see the ground. It was a tough couple of months, but I feel extremely accomplished.

Incidentally, if anyone ever tells you autopilot makes pilots lazy, they have never had to program one.

Today Umamusume gave me the 100 careers completed achievement. I still have not managed to get a single 3-star spark.

Not sure if this is common or particularly unlucky and honestly I couldn’t say which of those two would be worse.

You ever read something before bed that upsets you on such a deep level that it makes you feel like your stomach is on fire and makes it impossible for you to sleep?

To all my friends out at SGDQ: have a wonderful week! I’m with you in spirit and will hopefully see you all again next year!

Make sure to enjoy Minneapolis coffee shops and the Nicollet Diner on my behalf~

A bit ironic that this year is the closest I have physically been to AX yet I am the least free to attend. Someday I’ll make it out there for it.

I’m so glad I’ve been reading again. Finished Agatha Christie’s The Murder of Roger Ackroyd today. My God…the moment of the reveal left me staring at the ceiling with my mouth agape. What a magnificent mystery! What a remarkable piece of storytelling! If you love mysteries, please read this book!
