*spoilers if you haven’t played/watched it yet obvi
Just rewatched all of The Walking Dead video game S1-4 and my god I was reminded again as to why I love it so much. The storytelling and simply the way this game makes you feel is unlike any other. I knew what was gonna happen at the end of S1 and it still didn’t make it any less earth-shatteringly heartbreaking. Truly a one of a kind experience.

i cannot remember a first playthrough of any game i’ve ever played that was as enchanting as this. it was the wondrous adventure that the original zelda from 1986 was gesturing at but finally fully realized with the aid of modern technology and design. especially in the era it came out, when open-world games were at the absolute peak of bloodless checklists and cocomelon design, a game that was this single-mindedly committed to atmosphere, exploration, and wonder was such an unbelievable breath of fresh air (pardon the pun).
at the time it came out, i was falling out of love with gaming broadly, and botw is probably singlehandedly responsible for reigniting my love for videogames. it made me feel a kind of wonder that i genuinely did not think i was capable of feeling anymore, and it reminded me of the wholly unique kind of engagement that interactive art can provide that nothing else can. if you somehow haven‘t played it yet, i would literally recommend it to everyone. absolute fucking masterpiece.

New Vegas was truly a work of art with the storytelling and the DLC‘s. So much freedom.
I’ve put well over 1,000 hours into Fallout 4, even now I have a super modded save I play from time to time.
In case you’re wondering, yes, I did like the show.

if you are someone who has been vocal about the importance of community, but are not currently masking, you are actively making it unsafe and inaccessible for disabled/immunocompromised folks in your community you claim to care for. Wearing a mask is one of the best ways you can protect your community right now.
