If I were the sort of person who made video essays, I would make one titled, "Crimson Desert: Why is it Like This?"

But I love myself and don't want to get shouted at by the internet. 🫣

Playthrough of Bramble is now up on YouTube. What a weird, unsettling, and strangely beautiful story!

Gaymer prepares to play TUNIC (2022)

There are some games that multiple people keep telling me I need to play. Tunic is one of those games.

Hold on a sec, I'm just gonna...

Y'all Bramble was WILD. I was prepared for the creepy atmosphere & the vicious forest monsters but NOT some of the crazy shit that went down. What an interesting and very fun game!

Time for a new adventure. As voted on by my chat, it's Bramble: The Mountain King!

Darwin's Paradox! - 1: Out With the Trash YouTube video by Frog Beleren

Last week, I played this delightful new little game called Darwin's Paradox!, It was a charming and surprising time, more akin to a Little Nightmares experience than I expected, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Oh there's some good picks here. Hard agree on Dino Crisis needing a remake. I also guess I'll need to bump up Detroit: Become Human on my to-play list cus multiple people mentioned it today when I was chatting about this list on stream. 🤔

I feel like there are a ton of opinions on here that people might strongly disagree with but also I kinda don't care. Also I'm probably forgetting a lot of games and several of these could've gone in multiple spots.

Very fitting that on my Switch 2 replay of Blue Prince, I got to credits on Day 8.

It is absolutely INSANE to realize that in a 5 year span, he had Star Wars, Close Encounters, Superman, Indiana Jones, AND E.T., and they're all absolutely iconic. I honestly think Superman only gets overlooked because of its similarity to Star Wars, but it's so good.

Gaymer prepares to play Crimson Desert (2026)

Gurrl, we started Crimson Desert today and I can safely say after the first 5 hours I have no idea how I feel about this game. I know it takes a while to get going so.... maybe after another stream or two? 😶

Chrono Cross - 1: A Calling from Beyond Time YouTube video by Frog Beleren

I can't believe it took me this long to play Chrono Cross! It was such a wild ride of a game and I'm really glad I did it. Full playthrough is now on YouTube.

It was a good time!

This lil octopus feels how we're all feeling I think. Let's see if we can navigate an ocean of dangers in Darwin's Paradox!

I'm assuming many of them are conflating "prologue & epilogue" with "foreword & afterword." (I may be wrong in this assumption.) But then, they've just never bothered to check, which also upsetting.

I have heard this and I am VERY excited. I know basically nothing about it!

It was pretty close, but you had a few others who agreed with you that pushed it over the edge.

Cover arts for Darwin's Paradox! (2026), Bramble: The Mountain King (2023), and Tunic (2022)

Chat was closely divided about their pick in next month's lineup, but what we ended up with looks like a whimsical good time, perfect for spring.

Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes - Full Playthrough YouTube video by Frog Beleren

This weekend I played The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes, and despite the surprising lack of gruesome deaths, it was a good time.

I'm literally always saying this. We live in a city and my husband's conservative family was always saying they "could never" live in such a "dangerous place" and it's all just fear of those they don't understand. Every arts student at the local college has bigger balls than these wusses.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Episode 1 YouTube video by Frog Beleren

Chat was absolutely adamant that I played Super Mario Galaxy 2, so play it we did. And now the whole playthrough is up on YouTube so the whole world can see me flop.

All varieties of Bulldog. If you count dogs that have "dog" as a separate word, then lots more (like the Greenland Dog). Also, Dachshund (literally "badger dog") and others with "hund," and arguably, any "hound." And don't forget Dogue de Bordeaux, Dogo Argentino, and so many others.

We'll see if he grows up to be as voracious a reader as his father.

Okay, but we need more of this kind of armor in games.

I mean, I have *opinions* on lots of such things, but unless they're constructive I'ma just keep those thoughts inside. 💅🏻

Resident Evil Requiem - 1: The Wrenwood Incident YouTube video by Frog Beleren

I had a great time playing Resident Evil Requiem. May decide to do more playthroughs on my own. But my first playthrough on stream is now also up on YouTube, in case you can't get enough Leon Kennedy in your life. (Who among us...?)

That is exactly how it works and I'm glad you recognize my youthful glow. I'm definitely not a middle-aged man. 😂

Gaymer can't believe he's been streaming for 2 years.

Whoda thunk we'd be at two years already? Anniversary stream today!

Been loving it so far. The music really calls back to Chrono trigger and that's been fantastic to hear.
