People tend to play games one of two ways: Either they play it, maybe roll credits, and move on... or they dive in, play multiple times and do EVERYTHING. This depends on the game of course, but what makes us *prefer* one experience over the other? ▶youtu.be/7vOTY3ne3Fw

Am I the only one that weirdly procrastinates finishing a game as soon as I unlock the final boss? Do you also pump the brakes right before the finale? Why are we like this? Let's talk about it. ▶youtu.be/rj7dXKu82Kk

A few months ago, I made a video called “Games About Letting Go" - Recently, I’ve had an influx of comments wishing that I could have included Expedition 33 in it. I wish that too. So, here is a “spiritual sequel.” This is how Clair Obscur exposes you. ▶youtu.be/OsO3A5tsyW4

This is wonderful to hear. As much fun as it was to meme about this game, I think it’s a small miracle that the team never rushed it in response to all of the noise around the wait.

Parallel worlds in fiction are typically used a vehicle to explore hypotheticals in a colorful frenzied manor. There is excitement in possibility; wonder in the unknown. But these pieces of media explore what infinity *truly* does to the human mind. ▶youtu.be/Mb6jBRw9YLY?si…

FF7 Rebirth Spoilers- This part of the video was super fun to write. And it feels good to get my thoughts on it out there. It's 100% a weird busy ending, but when you look back at it, it unravels into something really meaningful.

Nearing the end of Bloodborne and BOY Mergo's Wet Nurse has to be one of my favorite FromSoft bosses now. The buildup of the baby crying, the sobbing ghost maiden, the haunting design, and the trickery in the fight? A symphony of flavor and style. 10/10 for me.

I'm both devastated and extremely grateful at how many sensational games are coming out right now. Grateful because... duh games. But devastated because it makes me want to rush through Silksong to get to them. And I do NOT want to rush through Silksong lol.
