Hurtful information.

“because if gamers are one thing, they are often extremely embarrassed by the games they play”

This is probably one of the most interesting and under explored aspects of game culture these days. A lot of people seem embarrassed and actively angered by the games they supposedly enjoy.

Looks kind of like Jean Jullien to me.

“So Bill was going as the beast of burden, yet he was the only member of the Company that did not seem depressed.”

Bill is carrying this team.

The BALL X PIT reveal was a delightful bonus.

Also, Fatty Lumpkin is an incredible name for a pony.

I noticed that last night too! The writing is horrible, and even better, nobody from their editorial team even reviews these for an ounce of accuracy.

The loop was so perfect I thought someone was coming to break a second one.

Looks like the Grand Princess. It’s a great ship! Try the 24k margarita if you’re so inclined.

Close second was the haunted piano in Mario 64. It got me good.

Alone In The Dark for the PC terrified me. Some creature bounced through a window and I almost bounced through one to escape the room.

I got it too! Selling out quickly in a lot of places.

Anyhow, all that to say I liked your article! Definitely got me thinking about what happened to the mobile space and how it has changed.

There used to be so many interesting genre pushing titles on mobile and it’s hard to tell if that’s still happening or not because discoverability and writing doesn’t really exist for it anymore.

I’m curious what happened to the traffic that used to exist for mobile games. Touch Arcade (RIP) used to do very well. Did the readership change or did the mobile game space change? Maybe both?

Oh good to know! I’ll try to exercise some patience and see what happens.

I was able to get back in fairly quickly and buy one. But my account was a wreck after it got locked. Definitely not something I’d do again for a 10% discount.

And the code still hasn’t been delivered, so yeah… not the best experience ever.

I tried to buy one and Amazon locked my account. Wild.

I have a Le Creuset mug, it’s decent. Thicker walls help keep it warm, but it’s not the largest internal volume if you desire a large amount of tea.

If temperature management is something you’re interested in, I got an Ember mug years ago and I use it every day. The price is absurd, but it’s fab.

Definitely worth a try! In the PRs you can save anywhere, and multiply experience gain up to 4x. So if you get to a spot where you know you need to level up, you can boost your XP gain for a little bit to avoid the “joy” of just walking back and forth and doing the same battle over and over again.
