Currently doing a Cursed All Bosses playthrough of Silksong. Being *actually* cursed doesn't allow you to reach Act 3, so I'm fake cursed, but the rules remain the same: no heals, no tools, needle only. All bosses.

The excuse for their using AI is (paraphrasing): "it helps us make more stuff, quicker".
The shortcuts taken to avoid time, care and money creativity requires only leads to a further mulching of content. So sad when artists choose this route to stay "relevant". Disappointing @arcraiders.bsky.social

Rich PvE combat and an unusually friendly community make Arc Raiders a more approachable extraction shooter than most, but Embark Studios' continued use of AI voice generation is a black mark against its reputation.

I got the sub-30 hour 100% achievement! This was cutting pretty close, despite having an hour spare it felt like I was under pressure for sure. Great fun.

Things I love about Silksong #1:
The way the map connects up with itself. Navigating, getting lost, then finding a way out that acts as a new shortcut to an area you've already been to is just the best. It helps create the sense that Pharloom is a whole world, not just random, separate parts.

These BG3 Steam achievements are interesting. 23.4% of all players finished the game, with Tactician finishers as low as 5.8%.
In 2 years since release.
Seems to say a bit about the sheer size of the thing. 3 out of every 4 players have not finished the game.

In the world of game dev there's too much pressure from all sides to "get things done". Not enough space for creators to actually create. I loved reading this interview - it shows Team Cherry just love what they're making, which is exactly what we need in this gaming world.
I'm excited for this!

Halo: Combat Evolved (OG version):
Great environment & art design that breathes eeriness and isolation. A neat story, not complex, but compact and well paced. Music is iconic, and tells a nice story too in when it's played. Combat is unfortunately where the game is weakest...

Been playing quite a bit of DOOM over the past few weeks -- starting out with SIGIL 1 & 2. It's been a great time. Both Sigils are bloody hard (I played on Ultra Violence), kinda frustrating, but also metal as hell and weirdly fun. Like a troll, staring you in the eyes, laughing.

I'm fighting Lady Ethereal on Nine Sols and my god that's a tough fight. Really cool, keeps you on your toes, the intensity climbs through the fight - very nice. Enjoying this game a lot so far! Videos to come out to Youtube when we're in Australia

This is a really cool read, and again makes me see just how much detail there is in the lore of this game. All about Miquella, St Trina, Malenia, -- very nice!

Just under 44 hours of playtime to beat Babe of the Heavens.
The map's aesthetic and music were incredible, and the map's journey clearly defined; however falls come easy and often, which leads to a lot of frustration. Still, we got there in the end.
Babe achieved!

After a few days of studying the routing used by top runners in the All Remembrances Glitchless category it's time to start back up on the run myself. Nervous to get going but will be nice once a few runs are under the belt!
I think the re-routing has been really important, and hopefully pays off.

The most painful thing about speedrunning is realising you need to change your method, route, or whatever. It hurts, because of how long you spent crafting that idea, and having to knock the blocks down and build again is hard.
I think that pain is one thing I never expected before getting into it!

Returned to Jump King last night for a brief spell -- managed to clear Main Babe and get to the final screen of New Babe+, which was a nice surprise after such a while! Got a lot of love for this game -- we'll be heading onto a new map soon.
