The new Fable footage/screens look fantastic. There was a time I really thought it would get canceled!

Have very fond memories of Fable 3, back in the day. Maybe this new one would be worth LPing on my channel...🤔

Heads up y'all, no videos from me for the next few days. Feeling burnt out, so I'll be taking a break from recording, and I'll build up a little stockpile of vids before I resume uploading too.

Seems Youtube has stopped recommending videos about autism alongside my own videos.

Instead, now it's recommending videos about the psychology of people who don't have any friends.

HELP

Yesterday I passed a guy at the grocery store who had an untied shoelace but I was too shy to say anything to him about it and ever since I've fretted over him maybe tripping and dying to death and how I could have saved him

RIP grocery store guy, it's all my fault. I failed you.

Impulse-bought Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon and first impressions are really good.

Rare example of an indie Elder Scrolls-like, and the combat is actually good (parries, dashes) and the stats on weapons and gear aren't afraid to show you more than a SINGLE NUMBER at a time. Eager to play more.

I just re-discovered Steam Trading Cards exist and apparently I have 555 of them????

If the average price for a typical card is $0.08, give or take, then selling all of them would get me like 44 bucks in my steam wallet. Flippin sweet bro that's like half a video game right there bro. Or 10 indies?

Been playing The Witcher 3 for the first time since release. Boy, did I sure forget how terrible the combat in this game is. But it makes me curiously optimistic about Witcher 4, which has a great chance to improve it.

The combat's the only thing holding W3 back from being a 10/10 (for me)

Crystal Project is an incredible game. It may have store-bought art assets and its soundtrack is free music, but even still it's one of the best turn-based RPGs I've ever played.

If you're a sicko freak (complimentary) that's big into RPGs with Job systems, don't overlook this game.

Schedule Update!

Tomorrow will be the grand finale of Metroid Prime 4! The day after, the 24th, will be a bonus vid where I read through the entire Scan Log and learn the deep lore.

The 31st, New Year's Day, will be my 9th anniversary as Zephyr!

Jan. 1st, we'll start Layton and the Miracle Mask!

The goblin that lives in my house, in repose.

He climbed up to the roof of our house. We had to bring out a ladder to climb up to retrieve him because he was stuck. The beast slumbers for now. When he wakes, a new day of chaos and tyranny awaits.

Seems those beautiful madmen at Team Cherry just announced a free content update for Hollow Knight: Silksong.

I will be there day one.

Finished Metroid Prime 4 and played 3~ hours on Hard Mode

Turns out the overwhelming majority of Green Energy Crystals only show up in the desert after significant story progress. Can't even get the beam upgrade and fire shot in the same trip to Fury Green.

This is so much more dire than I thought

There I was on my high horse critiquing Metroid Prime 4: Beyond for being way too simple and linear, and then I go and see a streamer acquire a beam weapon and proceed to not swap to it to check it out at all, and then get stuck immediately.

I now know why the game is simple and linear

I'm nearly done with Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, and I think I've seen enough of the game to say this:

It's the second coming of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.

They're both fantastic games, held back from true greatness by huge, huge flaws.

Here I was, content to set aside Path of Exile 2 until the full release. But I just saw that the next patch adds a class that lets you transform into a dragon.

I'm back in, baby

Just wrapped up my first session with Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.

GAME GOOD. GAME VERY GOOD OK

Part 1 goes live at 10 AM PST on the 4th :)

Sounds like most are saying Metroid Prime 4 is a 15~ hour game. Given that I edit out a lot of downtime/backtracking in my videos, it should be a short and sweet Let's Play series, regardless of going for 100% completion.

No guarantees Part 1 goes live on the 4th, but I'll try!

Just saw that Nintendo put out details on Metroid Prime 4 amiibo.

Seems there's a special cutscene only accessible by either using the Sylux amiibo, or achieving 100% scan and item collection completion.

Great. Guess I better not miss any missable scans bro. oh boy

Just realized that there is no one and nothing to stop me from adding dinosaurs to the book I'm writing.

Seldom have I felt so powerful.

Just 100% completed Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D Remake after 75 hours.

This is one of the best remakes in gaming history. It ascended the source material to glorious new heights.

And I gotta say, 2's new postgame content? Perfection.

So why isn't DQ VII Reimagined out RIGHT NOW, I WANT IT RIGHT NOW
