🚨NEW VIDEO ALERT!!🚨

Just dropped my first game review on the channel, though I did try my best to add some of the editing flair and deep perspective as a blend of review & video essay.

IT IS SPOILER-FREE so don't worry about that.

I can yap on story endlessly, but my favorite part of this playthrough has just been PLAYING it at its hardest.

And I've been lucky enough to find a community that seems to enjoy my playing as much as my story yapping.

They've also saved my ass with some tips.

Despite IMPOSSIBLY getting killed by a lava floor WHILE IN THE AIR 🤣 ...

Red Dragon on Hard may be my favorite fight so far.

Gotta nail:
- The right party
- The right materia loadout
- Maximizing abilities
- Timing abilities & spells PERFECTLY

This game as a GAME is still A+

🚨 NEW VIDEO ALERT! 🚨

Can't wait for Ghost of Yotei **but** I have lots of questions.

So I did what I do best: DIG

This video looks at the classic Samurai films that inspired Yotei, the real history of the area, and what twists and turns they could offer...

🚨 NEW VIDEO!! 🚨

It's an edited clip of the Tifa Lifestream playthrough on stream.

It digs into a bunch:

- Why show this early?
- What it can mean for Part 3
- How it adds to Tifa's big role in Part 3
- BONUS: Did the party see Cloud attack Tifa in Gongaga?
