I love my family, video games, board games, books, tv shows, a few movies, Azure/M365, elliptical reading, and LifeSavers Mints. Linktree: https://linktr.ee/mau64
I’m not sure Fire Emblem is for me. I’m in Act 2 on the GBA version and missing more than 50% of my hits.

I’m looking to get back into Diablo IV. If I buy the upcoming DLC, do I also get the previous DLC Vessel of Hatred? #gamepass #diablo

I bought a Retroid Pocket G2 and installed hundreds of games. I love this thing. I keep drifting to playing GBA games. Is that the best collection of games of all time?

Anyway, here is my year of reading. Not as productive as 2024 but still some great books. I’ve already planned a chunk of my 2026 reading. www.goodreads.com/user/year_in...

I received my Year in Books email from Goodreads and wish the actual app had that much character to it. They present your data in unique ways that stands out above anything their iOS app is currently doing.

I don’t see myself going after the “true” ending to The Rogue Prince of Persia, but the game was really fun to play through. Spent about 10ish hours with it and think it’s another solid entry to the massive pile of amazing 2025 games.

I’m a few hours into the Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter and really clicking with the combat. Enjoying my time with it so far. Hope I can stay committed once FF Tactics comes out.

Is Silksong Shinobi hard? I’m playing through the new Shinobi and that’s about the level of difficulty I’m looking for.

Marvel Midnight Suns not being more of a hit is criminal. That game was amazing. www.shacknews.com/article/1458...

I'm honestly shocked they haven't leaned more into their gaming offering. Apple Arcade is really great. Who doesn't game on their phone, even if it's something simple?

I finished Clair Obscur tonight and that has cemented as an all timer for me. Fell in love completely with the combat, the characters, and the setting. So much flexibility in strategy. I can’t believe Sandfall pulled that off. 11/10.

Just fought Dualliste in Clair Obscur. This game is unbelievably good. Outside a few exploration issues, everything else is just simply amazing.
