Two years ago, I experienced one or the greatest sports moments of my life. It was a moment that had me surrounded by fans crying tears of joy.

So I was excited to see if Despelote could capture the magic of sports in that same way.

Sadly, it did not

Despelote Review: A Failure To Capture The Magic Of Sports
Despelote is a game chronicling what it was like to be in Ecuador when they qualified for the World Cup in 2001. It was the first time they had managed to qualify for the biggest soccer tournament …

Just hit the 50 hour mark on kingdom come deliverance.

I honestly didn’t think this game would hit me like it has.

The writing, the characters, the world, the amount of things to do.

It’s breathtaking.

2 years ago, BigNerdGaming officially launched.

I wasn't sure what to expect, but I knew deep down I needed something like this in my life. It has been an even better ride than I could have expected.

Today, I'm reflecting on the journey and lore dumping.

Two Years of Big Nerd Gaming
Two years ago today, I wrote my first blog post for Big Nerd Gaming. In that post, I talked about why I was starting this blog. While I didn’t want to go into massive detail at the time, ther…

Game #40 of 2025 completed: Despelote.

This is a game that simply wants to capture a moment in time. That moment being when Ecuador qualified for the World Cup in 2021.

I experienced a very similar moment 2 years ago with the Lions.

I felt like it missed the mark, sadly.

It's the unfortunate truth. It's impossible to keep sorted in your head or go down a checklist of everything you have to not do or use to not support bad shit. Sometimes it has to be enough to just be a good person to the people around you.
Until you stop shopping at Amazon, Walmart, Target, Kroger, Publix and stop using apple products, google products and Microsoft products, I really don’t want to hear your opinion on me using Spotify. Ethical companies do. not. exist anymore or really ever.

“Telling another player you’re friendly just to shoot them in the back isn’t PVP.”

Yes it is.

A new kind of PVP.

A PVP of brains, rather than brawn.

And you just so happen to suck at it.

Because you lack the wits… the strategic nuance… THE WARRIOR WILL TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES! #ArcRaiders

Was reflecting on my experiences with Tsushima and Yotei.

I think a very big reason why I vastly prefer Atsu over Jin is that Atsu had a way more compelling cast of characters around her. It helps draw out different elements of her personality in a way you dont get with Tsushima and Jin.

That’s all she wrote.

Week 13 L eliminates The Second Plane from playoff contention and all but puts an end to my Fantasy Football season.

Injuries, inconsistent players, lucky opponents… but poor management is the real story here.

Can’t drop 5 straight and leave points on the bench every week. 🤷🏻‍♂️
