I'm eyeing a run through of Pokemon Crystal because I am still on that kick. XD

My husband just picked up the Demo for Unicorn Overlord and to be honest it looks pretty good, so I'm tempted to also give that one a try. The pacing is nice and snappy and the game play seems straightforward enough. The story is a pretty standard hero's journey, which isn't high praise but certainly doesn't count against it.

Who doesn't enjoy the occasional boxed-mac-and-cheesesque storyline?

Ah! That's interesting. I'm playing Alpha Sapphire right now. I love Pokemon, but tend toward the newer gens because they have more story.

Older games, or games that mimic older styles, can be pretty hit and miss for me as a result, even though I can appreciate a lot of the work and complexity put into them from an outside view (watching someone else play).

Revisiting the anime got me on a Hoenn kick, so here we are.

If you like indie games, and if you enjoy puzzles and story, have you ever tried Ib? It's a short indie psychological horror game that is all puzzles (no fighting), but really interesting.

What did you think of Cassette Beasts? I watched a play through of that one not long ago with mixed reaction. But, I'm curious as to how others received it and how they felt about playing through it.

I am deep into a run of Alpha Sapphire. I swear I play games other than Pokemon (mostly newer gen Fire Emblem). XD

  • Big fan of GWitch. It's a really strong story, and the art is beautiful.

  • Mob Psycho 100 is a completed action series that makes me think of slice of life coming of age story meets DBZ meets urban fantasy. The story is very strong and the art is used in a fairly clever way.

  • If you want dark/horror, then Psycho Pass was a fairly popular thriller.

Some good suggestions. I'd heard of Ghost Trick and that one did look interesting. :)

So, one of my favorite questions for interviews is something like this:

"What are the top 3 things you would want any new person walking in the door to know?"

If they ask you to elaborate, you can explain this is a deliberately broad question meant to catch the kinds of important, organization specific things someone might not think to ask. It could be anything from "When the boss has his door closed it means he's working on a key project, don't knock just come back later" or "Never drink the coffee on Monday mornings." It could also be: "A,B, and C are serious priorities for Management eventually."

This sometimes catches people off guard (which is not a bad sign), but it can often yield good information.

Congrats and best of luck to you!

I think an animated version of this bird to share in posts would be hilarious, even if it wasn't the logo. Every platform has its fun inside jokes and art can be used for more than logos and platform icons.

@datavoid

I really wish meta would just leave the fediverse alone. I have plenty of friends who use those systems, but I am able to connect with them elsewhere.

@ciliabravo

I have the same vibe! I was hoping for another season, but after this episode it feels like we're nearing the series conclusion. What a ride, though!

@Shortcake Kaguya-sama is so worth it.

Spy x Family is another amazing one.
