It was during the recording of this very video that I realized the "Live Service Bubble" existed only in the heads of game executives, and it made Sony's plan of TEN such services even more ridiculous. It was absurd even before Concord happened, let alone after.
Now, as the company desperately cancels what it desperately greenlit - including an online God of War game - we get to see just how despicably reckless they are... and how grimly correct I've been about the whole thing.

As a professional reviewer, I've earned the ire of many fandoms. As a player, there is one fandom I could truly call myself part of - Dynasty Warriors. These two things clashed with my review of Dynasty Warriors: Origins, as I did not love it the way the crowd did.
Let's discuss what that says about the way different people prioritize different aspects of a game. I promise it's as interesting as it is self-indulgent!

Is summoning in Elden Ring a violation of the "pure" experience, or is it the very purity of the game? While fighting every boss solo, rejecting tools deemed overpowered, and otherwise engaging in the "hardcore" experience is perfectly valid, it might not be the objectively correct method of engagement that some seem to think so. After all, denying yourself advantages to make things harder isn't playing the game as designed - there is actually an entire category of niche gameplay it falls under...

The twisted version of Early Access in which publishers hide a game's real launch date behind a paywall so you buy a deluxe edition of a game isn't just a scam, it's a scam that's subtley taking away content as it becomes THE reason to pay more money. It is terrifying how well FOMO works...

Xenoblade Chronicles X is a great game, but it's an even greater example of a terrible design misconception some games perpetuate. It conflates unpredictability so strongly with cheap ambushes that the ambushing becomes the most predictable thing in the world. Let's talk about world design, the role of enemies in establishing a game's rules, and Resident Evil!

I know I'll catch heat for refusing to let Nintendo off the hook for this one, but I am not accepting tariffs as an excuse for normalizing a price hike that publishers have literally been looking forward to. In fact, that very excuse is WHY I am so disgusted at the permission Nintendo just gave this vulturine industry.

Two Point Museum is my latest obsession, and while I'd take any excuse to talk about it, I actually have a very good reason.

Last week I couldn't play Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. This week I can play Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Case closed, right? I just demonstrated that anybody can "git gud" if they struggle for long enough, didn't I? No, I simply showed that I could personally do it for one particular game.
Let's talk about gitting gud, understanding the needs of others, and how it all relates to the arc words of Clair Obscur. For those who come after.
