I honestly don't rate Nightreign's story or character writing especially highly, but I do like the concept of the Nightfarers as found family and I love seeing art of them just hanging out

Beat the campaign in Sektori (on the default difficulty, anyway)
Very fun game, I'm glad I stuck with it long enough to get this far
I could stop now or I could keep going and become a twinstick shooter sicko, which I am considering but I'm not sure I have that kind of time

2012 - start studying in high school
2013 - take classes in university
2014 - passed N4
2015 - exchange year in Japan
2016 - passed N1
a little insane now that I look back on it, actually. I studied hard on my exchange year

2019 - passed N2
2021 - failed N1
2024 - passed N1

Tried SEKTORI
I immediately see why it's interesting, but the sensory overload is kind of intense
That seems to be the appeal for people who like it, but I've never been good at twitchy shooters or keeping track of this amount of stuff onscreen so I might have to accept this one's beyond me

never listened to the SayoOshi OST before and had no idea who worked on it but the moment 逆光天使 rolled onto youtube autoplay I went "this is Sapporo Momoko"
they call me the fastest shot in the west

Meant to do a Nightreign solo run, accidentally queued for multiplayer so I rolled with it
Unexpectedly good time, had two runs with very good players (Everdark Adel and Everdark Gnoster, we rolled) and one with people who seemed new so I took the lead (Everdark Adel, we lost but it was a good try)

Random neuron fired so I looked up a Sakura no Uta popularity poll and I don't think I've ever felt so disconnected from a community zeitgeist in my life
I wasn't expecting total agreement but what do you mean Naoya is NINTH
what do you mean Kei isn't on the board

I've broadly made my peace with the Game Awards being what they are, but it does still bug me that Best Narrative is essentially just a GOTY spillover category
the narrative that high-profile or big-budget games represent the best writing the industry has to offer feels so, so harmful

#CR4 I think you can plot all DnD characters on a chart of In-Universe Competence vs Mechanical Competence
I also think Wick and Kattigan are on opposite corners of this chart

Read The Starving Saints
I dunno, I was really with it for the first half, less so for the second. It's pretty good at portraying a fever dream from inside that dream in such a way as you can just about piece together the horror going on outside the POV character's perception, but its take on

Road to Empress's chapter end quotations really are just like
Li Zhi: "There's more to this Cairen Wu than meets the eye. Intriguing..."
Du Ruo: "Alas, I didn't kill anyone this chapter. Mistress Wei will be furious"
That Chamberlain You Killed and Dumped in a Well: "It's dark down here"

Majogami is almost something really slick but it's not quite coming together for me just yet
The basic flow of chain-slashing enemies with Setsuna feels great, but dodging, platforming, and generally negotiating around enemies is...less so
