Cult of the Lamb is a fun game, in spite of the main marketing hook. The cutesy animal design of the village is stuck somewhere between Woodland Critters and Happy Tree Friends and has nothing to do with the rest of the game. The dungeons have a different design feel and the lore they drape over th...

Big Boss designing Outer Heaven:

Admittedly, I don't know a ton about Metal Gear-- and maybe this is splitting hairs-- but in the strictest sense, I don't think he sounds fascist. He doesn't seem to be promoting, like, an ethnostate, he's not an ultranationalist, and he doesn't seem to be scapgoating minorities. An authoritarian p...

I gave BB a 2 because he is somehow both the greatest generation and a boomer, so he can't be good. Also he had one of the least awkward mom fucking opportunities in the franchise and totally missed it.

Based on the discussions I saw on it I fully expected chapters 2 forward to be about sexy schoolgirls running away from exploding rapists.

Virgin Extinction Island continues to surprise me with sex-positive and frankly feminist takes. Every male virgin in Japan suddenly develops a tumor that can kill them after they turn 18. A large portion of the population immediately dies, and high school boys across the country a dealing with exis...

I feel like this should get a proper burial, even though it may have seemed dead since the start. I've had the game and save on my desktop, and tried to go back a few times, but just can't make it work. Immediately after the tutorial stuff you make a series of mostly innocuous choices that it seemed...

Fire Punch I'm 3/3 on deciding to talk about a manga before I finish and there being some major development in the next 5 chapters. In all, though, it doesn't change too much from the above description. There's a lot that looks like Chainsaw Man by the end, especially when it comes to fights. The i...

Fire Punch , Tatsuki Fujimoto's manga before Chainsaw Man, is pretty interesting. (CW, it loves talking about rape. Nothing has been shown yet [I'm about half-way through the run] but it is discussed as having happened, will be about to happen, etc.) It starts out pretty generically about what you'...
