“Why do you hate the Yankees?” Uh, I have a heart that holds love for my fellow man.

Genuinely the early AC games would pick some of the best locales. This canceled game could’ve carried that tradition.

Extra funny when you think about how Sinners, which features Michael B. Jordan gunning down Klansmen in broad daylight in slow-mo, is the 10th highest-grossing R-rated film of all time - higher than The Hangover, 300, Logan, John Wick 4, etc....

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Yeah you were definitely right about the VO adding depth to it. I bounced off a few times off the PSP version but can’t get enough of this on the Switch.

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 1d

The VO makes a huge difference!

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 1d

Can’t wait to read your thoughts on it! I can’t get over how modern and classic it feels all at once.

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 1d

That’s another one I’ve been trying to play on the Vita, but given how great the remake is, I’ll probably check out the newer version of that.

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 1d

Definitely worth picking up!

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 1d

Explain FF14, then.

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 1d

Hyperbole aside, I’ve had a bit of an itch to get into some fantasy recently and was considering getting back into the Game of Thrones books, but jumping into FFT has been much more enjoyable.

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 1d

Played Final Fantasy Tactics nonstop since yesterday. Is this the best Final Fantasy game ever?

Getting into MLS from the Premier League has highlighted why I immediately understood the blood feud-like rivalry in the Prem compared to the much tamer, “Good game, everyone” stuff in MLS. Before PL soccer, my biggest sports fandom was the Korean national team and its blood feud with Japan.

Let me tell you, there’s something really pleasant about watching a super competitive game in the morning with coffee and breakfast.

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 3d

I will not celebrate until I get premier league banter on my timeline

Vietnam isn’t going to like this.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 3d

Trump: "The problem with Vietnam, we, you know, we stopped fighting to win. We would've won easy. We would've won Afghanistan easy. We would've won every war easy. But we got politically correct. 'Oh, let's take it easy.' We're not politically correct anymore, just so you understand."

So I guess baseball is Bluesky’s preferred sport?

inside higher education are two wolves.

Two posts on blue sky back to back. One about an influencer program at Syracuse and the other about a horror studies program at the Univeof Pittsburgh

My PS5 is in storage so it’s just gonna be more FFT for me this week.

Feel like a Korea group ticket might not be impossible.

The Athletic @theathletic.com · 7d

FIFA tightly guarded 2026 World Cup ticket prices.

Now, The Athletic reveals costs for each game, at each venue, at every stage of the tournament.

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 7d

Yeah but now it has a name.

Matt Kim @lawoftd.bsky.social · 7d

Wild week for news.

Our county next to dc is suffering from federal layoffs and shelters are trying to help people cover the costs of pet food. Please help if you’re able and you love pets :)

Btw I got mango at this shelter. They run a pet food bank and I’d appreciate a donation to them to help families with cats in need
