I’ve solely been focused on Xenoblade Chronicles 3. Very much enjoying the game and exploring its massive environments. Music in the game is very good but just a bit shy of Xenoblade Chronicles’ music. That game’s soundtrack was god tier.




Love that games battle music.

Boy, trouble just seems to be following Platinum Games around for the past while now. Very unfortunate turn of events concerning Helena Taylor.




I saw the video last night. I feel like £4000 for doing some voice acting is a pretty sweet deal. Don't voice actors usually do a variety of work over the year?

Yeah definitely some great battle music, especially against bosses, unique monsters, and when launching a chain attack. Love those Ouroboros chain attack finishers. Very cool looking.

There's a bit on the radio right now about the cultivated brain cells 'playing' pong.  The possibilities are endless, once again, to the point where we can have symbiotic computers with both electronic and bionic processors.  Kind of brings a new meaning to the term 'my PC died'.

Another tip for your Xenoblade 3 playthrough.

Every colony head that joins you has an ascension quest, which raises the level of your class from 10 to 20.

The only way these quests show up on the map, is by having the hero in your party, when inside their respective colony.

Currently experiencing some strange issues  in Splatoon3. The left joustick seems to not respond properly, resulting in walking speed grinding to a halt.

I first thought stick drift had finally set in on my Switch lite, but Fallguys doesn't seem to suffer from it.

I wish they'd bring some of the more left field stages of the original back. Every stage seems to be a square with some kind of elevated pathway above it.

It's been rough the last week or so, my grandmother who I watch over  has taken a turn for the worse no longer able to stand or walk anymore. We got an in him hospice service to come every day and check on her so that's good, it came with a new adjustable bed and she is bedridden now. Her mind is kind of in different places, there was a day where she was just talking about the past, but you can snap her back and she is aware of what's going on. She can't really see or hear well and she hardly makes an effort to talk. On Thursday night I feel she had a small stroke cause one moment she was aware and talking well then completely down weak and half her mouth was not moving, got that checked and the doctor said those could happen more frequently over time. The scariest part was that she refused to eat or drink for a day or two, would not let a straw into her mouth, was visibly angry. Yesterday she allowed us to feed her and drink so that's a big relief. So it's a new stage in her care, most likely the final stage, her vitals are fine so for all we know she can be around for some time but she is weaker than before. At this point it's all about making her comfortable.


When I have time I've still been playing KH3, it's fun, crazy, weird, but I think 2 is better. I am ready for Bayo 3 next week and am so sadden by the seemingly false allegations of Taylor. So today reports from Bloomberg and others show that Platinum has proof that they offered her $4 for 3-4 sessions for like $15k total, she wanted six figures and a piece of royalties, they declined and went with Hale. She then went on a rant, lied about the offer and basically sent a internet hate mob after Hale and Kamiya, and tried to boycot the game. Horrible.

Tomorrow we finally see Silent Hill! And the day after is RE4 remake reveal! Big days for horror game fans.

Yeah Vader, sorry to hear that.
My grandmother passed away in January after a slow downwards spiral that lasted 10 years. Stuff like this is just very sad.

It's tough, no way around it. You are in my thoughts.

That's such a hard spot for any family to be in. Sorry that you and your family are going through it right now Vader. Glad you're able to be with her right now though.

On a (comparatively) less sad note, the Bayonetta 3 story has gone down the path that I think a lot of people including myself suspected. Helena Taylor was playing hardball for a lot more money, and a hell of a lot more than I expected if the Bloomberg story is true.

I still think there's a little bit more going on than we know. And while I know it's not fair to try and diagnose someone's mental health, after watching her video there's a desperation behind it. Kind of makes me think that at the very least it's someone going through a really bad time, and possibly a little unbalanced at the moment. Still, tough to guess with an actor sometimes.

At the end of the day I suppose it's nothing more than speculation. That said, I'm going to assume I'm not getting a Christmas card from either her or platinum games this year.

Yeah pretty crazy turn of events in the ongoing Bayonetta saga. I’m wondering if this could be some big misunderstanding that might have happened due to some kind of mistranslation. Either way I think this is just a symptom of a much larger problem which is the huge discrepancy of how people benefit from a game’s success. You have just a very select few people raking in obscene amounts of money which is typically the very top executives getting multi million dollar bonuses while the people who actually help create the games don’t enjoy the fruits of that game’s success.

Well I'm still going to boycott Bayonetta 3 but only because I'm not at all interested in playing it.

Rise of the Tomb Raider has this annoying popup every time I'm near an optional tomb by announcing, "There's an optional tomb nearby." Why announce this? Why not allow me to discover it on my own? I can't seem to disable it either. Ive played games for 40 years; I don't need nor want your hand holding!
