Fall 2020

Fall Guys


A really fun "battle royal" game and really cute! I still really find it fun months later. 


Control AWE DLC


I loved this expansion! There is so much lore and shows how this game connects to the Alan Wake games. It was very exciting playing this.  


Doom Eternal


This game having so much interesting lore was a pleasant surprise. Just like God of War 4, this Doom game was more than just "turn your brain off and kill enemies" like the older games were for these series. I love all the reading there is in Doom Eternal and it's optional so if players don't want to know the details of the world and characters, then they can just enjoy the cutscenes. The game simplifies it good enough for the player to not have to read the codex. I can't wait for the next DLC!  


Genshin Impact


This game is the anime version of Breath of the Wild but free to play.


Lovecraft Country


The first episode is the best one and I was really hoping the rest of the series would continue to feel as good as that first ep. I thought it would be the next best series after Watchmen but...it wasn't. I did still enjoy it but I have a lot of nit picks. I have hope though that in season 2, the creators will learn from their mistakes so I can't wait! 


Space Force


It's so much more funnier than I thought it would be! I loved it! Such a fun show! 


Pen15 Season 2


I love this show, it makes me miss my cousin who used to be my best friend. The show just makes me feel good. Makes me remember fun memories. 


The Witcher books



I read more and I love finding out how Geralt met characters that show up in the game and reading about Ciri's struggles. 


Superior Code podcast


I started my own podcast. It's just me talking about fun "what ifs" of series I love. It feels nice explaining something fun that's in my mind without someone interrupting me or disagreeing with me. 
I'm fine with listeners disagreeing in the comments because by then, at least I got to explain everything fully instead of the back and forth discussions of people interrupting each other. So, if people want to talk to me about these fun topics, it'll only be in the YouTube comments. 
So, doing it this way just avoids misunderstandings, if that makes sense.


Belle Delphine


I'm so happy she has decided to do "interviews" on a few podcasts recently because now more people will stop acting like she's not human. Even though that should have been common sense a lot of people are heartless anyway. I know she says that it doesn't bother her because it's a character all these people are insulting but it really bugs me. It's very sexist how the internet kind of all agrees to trash a girl online for being weird but when guys are weird, it's funny??? 
Her content was always funny to me. Yes, it's "E-girl" version the way she does her jokes but it's still funny! It's like Bree Essrig's sense of humor! (I want them to team up so bad!)  

I've been following her way before she sold her bathwater so I'm just happy that now a lot more people will start treating her better and talking about her in a more respectable manner. Even though she has thick skin, I think it's good if people start being polite anyways because of future girls like her who wont have thick skin. She loves when people talks about her because it gives her more attention but maybe other girls wont like that unless it's respectable.

I'm just really happy that she's doing really well and has a partner to be by her side.


The bad stuff this season:

Away
is just such a waste of a show. Could have been a good sci-fi drama but it decided to make the leader a crybaby and make the rest of the crew weak and nonprofessional.

The first episode was interesting but after the second episode, I knew this series was going to be bad. 

At first I loved that they made the Commander a woman but then I find out that she's too nice. The show wants her to be so good hearted that it makes her a pushover. There's a way to make leaders a nice person who puts their friends over the mission while still being intimidating. But they didn't want to do that because they did what most anime does with their main female characters; they made them goody-goody, emotional wrecks. 

What really pisses me off is that they wouldn't have make her that way if she were a male commander character. 

(If there's ever a Mass Effect live action with Femshep, they better not make her cry like people do in fanfiction a LOT.)  

I don't give a shit about the dumb family drama. I hate that the characters were able to have live conversations with their loved ones while traveling in space. Unnecessary stress from her daughter being bratty. I understand being scared for your mother's life in space but how about having some pride that she is a commander and in fucking space AND going to be the first to land on Mars? Ungrateful brat had years to prepare and accept that she wont have her mother in her life for 3 years.  

Plus, the Commander is bothered with who her daughter is dating. I mean, really? Keep your focus on the mission! Such a dumb character. How did she become leader? 

Search Party started out so fucking good. The first season is great, the second I still enjoyed but the 3rd was annoying. It didn't feel enjoyable to watch as much but now that all the court stuff is over, I'm excited for the fourth season. It might be unfair to put this show in the list of bad things but it did make me not want to recommend this show until I see how it finally ends. 

Higurashi (New series) is another show that might be unfair for me to put in this bad list but so far it's such a let down. There's too much wasted time on fan service and fluff. I just want the new series to just focus on the story. It hasn't finished airing but there's 12 eps so far and they're not great.

Spring 2020

Animal Crossing: New Horizons


I'm glad it got so popular that people who thought it seemed boring, tried it out after hearing about it so much and ended up loving it. I always get annoyed with gamers not giving games like Animal Crossing a chance. 


Scrubs podcast


I'm so happy this exists! The two main actors are actually good friends and are talking about their time on Scrubs. They're rewatching the show one ep at a time and it's so funny! 


Control


I finally got to own this game and play it myself. I watched a full playthrough when I couldn't afford it and I loved it. Playing it has made me love it even more. It's really fucking fun to play and I love the main character so much. I played the DLC and I love how she's become so cocky about how powerful she is. I can't wait for more. 


Observation


All I knew about this game is that there's a woman who teams up with an AI. I had no idea I played as the AI! I was so happy! Plus, this game ended up being really good, story wise. I loved the ending. I need more games like this, please!


Assassin's Creed Odyssey


I'm still playing through it but so far it's really fun and I like my female character. I've never played an Assassin's Creed game but when I seen it on sale and seen that I can choose to be a female throughout the whole game, I just had to get it.
I love too that you can romance everyone that the game lets you and it's not exclusive to one character. You can have multiple lovers without them getting mad because they never find out. 

I wish other games did that, because the only other games I can think of that comes close is Mass Effect Andromeda. You can romance a reporter and a historian without it conflicting with your main romantic interest.  I need more games to give us secret lovers, please.   


Better Call Saul season 5


The first series where I paid to own it digitally. I just really wanted to marathon this show and seen it was on sale in the Playstation store, just needed to get it then and there. It's during a stressful time and I needed another distraction from the world.
I really loved this season! Can't wait for season 6! 


Never Have I Ever


This show was a nice treat, its so funny! The adults are funnier than the kids but still worth a watch. The mom is my favorite character, so funny! I hope season 2 holds up when it comes out.
Also, the music in this show is so good.


The Leftovers rewatch


First Time Show podcast is back! I'm so happy to be watching The Leftovers with them.
I just wish one of the hosts would chill out. They're too negative about the show and it's annoying. Other than that, I am enjoying the podcast. 


Spring cleaning


My place was becoming a mess and I finally got into the mood of organizing stuff and my place feels so much bigger. I still have more to clean but it's looking good and it makes me feel better seeing it so nice and neat.


Indie games 


I finally got to play some indie games I had in my library:

Celeste - I LOVED that this game had "god mode" I got to just enjoy the story without having to solve puzzles and dying over and over. More side scrollers should have in game cheats as an option to make the game feel relaxing. 

Mutazione - This was a really interesting game. I loved getting to know the history of the island and the people on it. And having choices on how to respond to characters was fun. I do think this game was longer than it needed to be but I still would recommend this game to others.

A Short Hike - This felt like a short Zelda game. The main story is to climb a mountain to make a phone call but you can explore around and solve little quests for characters. It was really cute and relaxing. 

Unravel - I've been wanting to play this game for a long time and finally got to when I seen it on sale. It was so good at making me not think about the world. My favorite levels were snowy ones. 


Bad Stuff

Virus - people just being fucking selfish and not staying away from crowds and not wearing masks. White people even went out to protest, with guns, against wearing masks and having to stay home. Fuck people.

Cops killing people - And people are still on the side of the cops. I'm sick of this. I had conversations with friends and family and it's stressful. Fuck tone policing. 

Other bad stuff are not as big as the two I wrote about above but here they are:

Dead To Me season 2 - It tried too hard to fit in the funny moments while I felt like season 1 did a better job at picking moments to be funny. 

Spinning Out - Started out strong then it gets cheesy at the end.

Outlander Season 4 and 5 - Too much rape and war. Think of something different for fucks sake!
