It is all about The Hundred Line: Final Protection Academy, child. I’ve not been this consumed by a recreation in fairly a while; I completely adore it. I’ve a sense it’ll be fairly a protracted one too, so it would maintain me occupied till the Swap 2 launch, at this price.
That is about it for me this week! I do wish to get again to Pikmin 2 very quickly, although.

I am so into Clair Obscur. I am not a JRPG gal in any respect, usually, however there’s one thing concerning the mixture of rhythmy turn-based fight à la Paper Mario and ridiculously thorough talent and technique administration à la Slay the Spire that simply GETS me. Plus, the writing feels so recent — it is goofy and self-referential, however not within the Marvel manner the place it is all “nicely that simply occurred”. It additionally is not afraid to be extremely foolish with how French it’s — it is all baguettes and Eiffel Towers so far as the oeil can voir.
This yr has been banger after banger thus far, and now I am simply hoping Fantasy Life i would not break the chain (and my coronary heart)…

After organising the gear a few weekends in the past, I have been on a Rock Band binge with the fam. There’s nonetheless an intoxicating camaraderie to getting the band collectively and burning by acquainted tunes. The Overdrive on my Gretsch would not work correctly as a result of some defective inner switches (can I be bothered to order new ones and solder them in?), but it surely’s nonetheless a rockin’ good time even once I’m not maxing my factors potential. We began out with Lego, then we went to three through The Beatles, and we’re at present noodling round with 2’s glorious playlist.
Past that, Oliver’s current Kablasta article had me digging the Labo cardboard out once more and introducing it to the youngsters.
