This is from weeks ago at this point but I never posted it and wanted to remember a time before I caught the worst/most persistent cold I’ve ever had as an adult.

Honestly with how long I’ve had this cough I’m not sure I’ll be there myself. But I’m sure we will cross paths soon.

Also to its credit I think there are some fun surprises in the game that are tied to story but I wouldn’t say a few fun surprises mean it has a good story like let’s reel it in. Idk just some thoughts. This is just my page.

And it’s not like a simple game or story can’t be a great one. The children’s book Love You Forever is super simple and short and is way better than the story in Bananza (which to be clear is FINE like that’s not a story game at all so who cares about it being good tho why do ppl think it is 🤔)

A small example (sorry to use this one) is DK bananza. People have said they love the story and how Pauline gains confidence but there is very little done to make that arc feel “real” or “moving.” She sings instantly. Even her first “performance” is like super early in the game.

I love Clair and it’s my GOTY but I beat it not long after release and also felt act 3 was overhyped. People act like that’s what makes the story good butI think the best part of the story is far earlier BUT I will also say (no spoilers) but I LOVED the way the game ends.

To emphasize this: I’m a big new year new me person and I feel that with games as well. Even though I spend a lot of January playing December games but in my mind those are 2026 games so it can still fit my mental agenda. 🤓
December 2, 2025 at 4:49 AM
F for forgot to play.
December 2, 2025 at 3:59 AM
Sadly I won’t 🥲 but will debrief for sure. Are you in LA during the game awards this year?
December 2, 2025 at 3:58 AM
It’s there! I really want to get to it because people have told me this.
December 2, 2025 at 3:38 AM
Maybe I hate one of these games and it can get bumped up!
December 2, 2025 at 3:11 AM
Views PLUMMET if you do January. Just is how it is. On a technical level tho you alway risk missing games even in that system bc what if a game is like 12/27. so Id like Dec - November bc you get EVERYTHING released and still have a week or two before recording to tie some loose ends
December 2, 2025 at 3:10 AM
I’m very curious. I have a bad feeling I’m not gonna like it but a lot of my favs (who I taste align with) love it so I’m like okay maybe I’m about to fall in love.

One of the only things I can count on in this life lol

I know I lost the vote at the beginning of the year but what if we all collectively decided to ban December games from the two tens anyway? 👀
December 2, 2025 at 3:02 AM
It's honestly saving me this year
December 2, 2025 at 2:55 AM
Yeah if you want to know my sicko plan it's Dispatch with dinner (because me and my husband will play ep. 1 together at least), Ghost at night, and Pipistrello before bed.

A balanced diet.

December 2, 2025 at 2:52 AM
