Happy release day! This Monday I'll be streaming Ys vs. Trails in the Sky: Alternative Saga as my first ever arena fighting game! This genre is a little outside my wheelhouse but I'm always there for anything Falcom so it'll be interesting to see how it goes as a JRPG fan 😊

It's been a few days since I got to the credits in Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter & I still can't stop thinking about that emotional ending. To relive all those scenes in 3D with English voice acting 😭 This is definitely my GOTY. No question about it 🧡💙

Gaming seems to be getting more expensive recently, from subscription services fees, individual games and console prices. Where do we draw the line? Does the subscription model still make sense for many gamers? Let us know your thoughts after watching today's new episode!

Happy Monday all! Looking forward to releasing some videos I've been working hard on this week & of course an awesome streaming lineup 😆

We're seeing a rise of AI channels who steal footage & scripts from creators with no actual personal gaming experiences of their own. No thanks, this not content I'm interested in. It's soulless & often gets things wrong. Not to mention all the fake games in their thumbnails 🫠

Davidvinc RPGs @davidvinc.bsky.social · 6d

I don't like making videos like this, but If we don't stand up to the plague of AI and stolen content it's only going to get worse. It's blatant stolen content, blatant AI slop, blatant misinformation and it has to stop - today I'm putting my foot down.

True, but for me I prefer the more complete physical cart. There's always options to reverse the cover!

Emily 💫 @orbalology.bsky.social · 8d

The game has to have "Nintendo Switch 2 edition" to work on all switch systems. It's usually the switch 2 physicals with the wall of text on the cover art.

Emily 💫 @orbalology.bsky.social · 9d

Why are they making Nintendo Switch 2 Edition versions games more confusing than they need to be?
PSA - buying the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition WILL work on all Nintendo Switch systems, both the original and the Switch 2! If you want the most complete cart go with the NS2 Edition!

I really love Digimon & I'm super excited to stream Digimon Story: Time Stranger all day this Friday!! I'll be playing from the beginning and choosing Gomamon as my starter ✨

Emily 💫 @orbalology.bsky.social · 10d

Yeah! So many cool things in the sequel - I can't wait to play more next week!

Emily 💫 @orbalology.bsky.social · 10d

The Sirens' songs were so good haha
