hello internet!

Well if you guys got a nickel for every time I've said 'I'm back now' shortly followed by 'No really, I am back now' then you guys would have some serious currency on your hands. Not going to fall into that trap today. The only promises being made here are that there are no promises when it comes to my schedule lately. Been steam-rollering through my to-play list though, the one I may have referred to before. The one I'm currently clearing through at the cost of most of my free time.

So in a sense I'm loading up on mental ammunition for the next round of heavy duty blogging that'll be coming your way at TBD. In another very real sense I just need to organise my time better. That said there are plans afoot that should see more activity around these here parts at some point in the near-but-not-going-down-that-road-again future. PC gaming, that glorious but afar promised land of possibility. Been saving up for my return trip after my many a-year hiatus from its golden shores. Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes. This makes me do a happy dance.

High possibility here that it might just busy me with more non-blogging related stuff to do, on the flip side I'm mulling over the possibilities of putting together let's plays and reviews and other less-wordy stuff that will fit in right at home here around these here parts. That should happen in the next month or two should all go to pot, or plan rather. Yes PC gaming makes me a happy Dave and it might actually lead to this place being updated on a semi-regular basis again. No wait there I go again making promises I can't guarantee. What I will promise though is a reboot of this place. Maybe a new name, new look. Spruce up the joint a tad. An insulin shot to the heart Pulp Fiction style but without the preceding overdose you know the kind of thing.

Until next time, whenever that may be. It should be soon, I want it to be soon but we all know better at this point. Adios!

Once upon a time in the dark ages, in the long ago, in the age before the iPhone and reliable high speed broadband there was the humble video game. You would play it, it would last for a finite length of time and then it would end. You'd move on and play another game, maybe read a book, watch a film, join a ukulele band. You'd cast that game into the realm of memories past, enriched by the experience in some way but no longer actively partaking of it. Now that time never ended as such, those games are still very much around but in the here and now they have been eclipsed somewhat by something else altogether.

anime hair and the end of days

I've just completed a game that, in normal circumstances at least, wouldn't generally be my cup of tea. A game remastered and released in 2021 but which originally arrived in 2010 in a somewhat 'adjusted' manner shall we say?. A game I meant to get around to back then but never did and now that I have finally gotten around to both playing and completing it, I'm not entirely sure if I liked it or not. That game is Nier Replicant or to give it it's full re-released title:  Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139... because clearly the game alone wasn't baffling enough....

the refreshing taste of cosmic justice

As alluded to in my last post I have some thoughts about the game I have spent most of the last week playing, that game being Paradise Killer , those thoughts being well... these ones.  First up it seems like a minor miracle that I am playing a game like this in 2023 on my PS5 and not on my PS2 in the hallowed year of our lord 2001. it's a game that's quite simple and straightforward in some ways and in others it has a lot going on just beneath the surface. It feels about as removed from the generic high budget videogame as it gets these days without going into the realm of indie low-budget. There's some weird throwback energy going on here is what I am saying and over the next few hundred words I will attempt to put said thoughts in some kind of coherent order. To the commentary...
