Why I Don't Watch Trailers

I hated seeing this image of Vi everywhere.

Not because of the brain-dead takes from grifters complaining about it not being goon material - I beg to differ - but because when watching Arcane S...

I've seen Ethan Hawke often mention how much people love this movie. The kind of love that twenty years on gets people to still stop him in the street to sing it's praises to him like no time's passed since 2001. And I felt why that is pretty quickly, yet in not a way I can entirely describe... N...

Why recommend both of these games?

I haven't seen the movie.

I have no idea if this was always the plan but essentially what you have here is a great film score filled with beautiful piano melodies, haunting atmospherics, and distorted soundscapes with a NIN EP that also has all of th...

Recommendations: SiN Episodes: Emergence

SiN Emergence is like a metal remix of a classic song.

Is it better than the material it's clearly modelling itself after? No.

But it has a charm that's unique while still reminding you of that classic.

I personally couldn't get into the original SiN for a variety of reasons, ...

I've always adored art by "smaller" artists. Whether its student films by visionary directors or awesome games by tiny teams in their spare time, they're just always inspiring to see. Though... you can usually tell they're working with less. Whether it's the lack of unique assets, expensive equip...

Recommendations: Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc

Normally, I like to vary my types of recommendations. Should it be a game, the next will be something different like an album or a film. However, Reze Arc won't be in theatres forever, so you should definitely check it out while you can because as somebody who really liked - and recommended - the...

Recommendations: Requiem for a Dream

"Recommend" is a strong word for this movie.

It's a film to be recommended for it's beautiful craft, great performances, haunting score, and unforgettable journey of its characters. None of these things are specifically to be enjoyed, but moved, which in my case, I think could not be more p...

Often, the conclusion I originally envision for a video ends up not even surfacing by the time I actually complete a script, and this next video looks to be continuing that tradition. Instead, I’ll dedicate this space to the topic at hand, which I think I can summarize in three ”games.”

Looking back, this whole year has been a re-awakening for my taste in music. Not so much that I've changed what I like, but that I finally understand what I previously didn't like.

This is the level of polish I aspire to reach especially for a video-game.

Recommendations: She Wants Revenge - Self Titled

It's rare I'd describe a song as hypnotic, but that seems to be the entire philosophy behind She Wants Revenge.

Recommendations: Suit for Hire

I guess, spoiler alert for my next video.

Suit for Hire was a game I played in Early Access three years ago for fifteen minutes and walked away so impressed by its core-gameplay, I decided right then to restrain from playing the rest of its limited content and wait for a full release.

This feels like a film I wanted to make.
