Slender Tomodachi Life has made me unexplainably happy c:

Me when I see people calling a gacha character with a BMI higher than 1 “thicc”:

I think the PS4 era cemented the idea that melodrama equals story into the minds of gamers harder than any other specific time period, often to the detriment of storytelling, and it’s gonna take years to unlearn that.

Hey man, we cool? I just noticed that when I look at you the reticle turns red.

[8] Beating Wuchang: Fallen Feathers today, maybe? Possibly? YouTube video by Billy S

Streaming in 10 mins, might finish Wuchang today (It's either this stream or next 100%)

Me when I open Sen's Fortress, which leads to Anor Londo.

I think my next "challenge run" video'll be a DS3 Fog Gate Rando. I have been trying to do one for ages - I need to finally finish one

And we're just over 500 subscribers away from 40,000, which you love to see.

I wonder what I should do to celebrate it? 😅

Just want to say I'm super chuffed with how the channel's looking at the moment. I'm not sure why the Skill-Bosses/Skill-Areas videos took off, but I am always immensely grateful to see it happen.

I genuinely love making videos, big and small, so to see people like them too is still crazy to me.

This is my moment of weakness.

Me but I die to the Taurus Demon in Dark Souls 🫦

Yesterday @reified-systems.itch.io pointed out that Basil's face from this Fawlty Towers VHS collection is nearly exactly The Expression from Disco Elysium, and my mind is blown.

I genuinely think this may be the original inspiration! So many details match up

Pinwheel is absolutely busted, hardest boss in the series, updating my difficulty rankings as we speak 😤

why did From Software make this boss so hard????

also I will probably start streaming regularly every weekend. gonna shoot for some morning streams every Saturday and Sunday

In a similar vein - if you're talking about games with names that are foreign to you (Me with Wo Long's Chinese names, etc), you can learn how to pronounce them.

The "I totally butchered that name" bit isn't funny anymore.

Whenever I do a stealth kill in a game I pretend I’m doing an E3 presentation and say stuff like “We’re giving players the choice to approach combat in a variety of ways”

WELCOME TO TOMODACHI LIFE CUNO

I was told that I'd be an idiot to NOT post this clip on socials. From my recent DS trilogy randomizer, the funniest moment of my entire life.

A selfie of a white man with a short beard and moustache, next to a dog with his mouth wide open like a smile.

A cute dog sitting in his basket, atop a pink cover. His tongue is sticking out as he stares at the camera, while cuddling his green crocodile toy.

My parents had to say goodbye to Frank today. I'm heartbroken - He was a part of my life for 15 years. But ever since I moved cross-country, I haven't been able to go back and see him. Now I sadly won't ever get that chance again.

You were a legend, Frank. Gonna miss ya bud.

Ranking FromSoftware Soulsborne Platinum Trophies from Easiest to Hardest YouTube video by Billy S

The platinum difficulty ranking video is up. It's all subjective, but I had fun revisiting some of those platinum memories from years ago:

youtu.be/hqFT3K-YR7k?...

Tonight's video will be a tad late. The first 2 minutes didn't have my vocals rendered for some reason. Having to re-render it all x_x

I see the Bridget/Leo matchup has not improved going into Strive 2.0

I was told that I'd be an idiot to NOT post this clip on socials. From my recent DS trilogy randomizer, the funniest moment of my entire life.

My wife at 1 AM, with tears in her eyes
Me: Why are you crying
My wife: K-...
Klonoa.... 🥺

Screenshot of Lord of the Rings. The main character says "All right, then. Keep your secrets."

See, that surprises me a lot because I always see a through line between Hollow Knight fans & FromSoft fans. On most other channels that cover them, it makes complete sense, so it's a shame that I don't quite have that audience reach, it seems.

My Hollow Knight randomizer video flopped so hard 😭 worst performing video in over two years.

I guess I'll never play a Metroidvania again /s

In all seriousness, I'll probably keep future HK video ideas as member-only or stream-only affairs.

I'll listen THIS time.

Not the Hollow Knight randomizer completely flopping worse than any video I've posted in over two years.

I hear you - I'll never play a Metroidvania ever again ever ever 🙃

In all seriousness, I'll keep my HK stuff for members moving forwards

AI star symbol.

It's funny (not funny) how this ubiquitous symbol screams 'beware, incoming trash!' I have an instant reaction of revulsion whenever it pops up.
