It's hard for me to believe that words are worth anything anymore. I have no motivation to write, with AI looming large. It doesn't feel like it matters. Creation is no longer valuable, well-considered creative writing isn't worth a good god damn to anyone when instead you can turn on a fountain of shit and guzzle it down any time you feel like.
Here's some games I beat.
ZORK: GRAND INQUISITOR
One of the better point and clicks based on Zork, in my opinion. Really good narrator dialogue from someone who is apparently somewhat famous? I've always dearly loved this game. It wasn't my first Zork (that would be, uh, "Zork") but it is the one I think I love most in spite of some nonsensical puzzles. VOD playlist here.
ANOTHER CODE RECOLLECTION
A collection of two adventure games, one for the DS, one for the Wii, now remade for the Switch. Arc System Works worked on this! Ashley Mizuki Robins is a young girl searching for her fathers and she encounters a ghost and memories memories memories memories memories and then she gets a little older and memories memories memories. Really good in spite of my snark, some strong YA/teen-focused writing here. Loved these. Hope there's a Hotel Dusk/Last Window collection someday. Playlist here.
WILD ARMS 3
My weekend project since December. An absolute BANGER of a JRPG with some of the best music you'll find, sharp writing, lovable characters and an entire 11 chapter storybook I spent like two hours reading to chat. Holy hell, what a game. I'm excited to play the rest of this series now. Playlist here.
As you can see, you can't get rid of me, but I just... ran out of motivation to post anything here. I don't know. It's not like being a streamer is special either. It's all energy and motivation and I had none.
We'll see if it comes back.
