I want to reintroduce myself to Bluesky! Call me Crit! I'm a bit of a Nintendo loyalist and perhaps too critical of movies sometimes. Hit me up if you want my Switch FC! I enjoy writing reviews as well on these sites.

Happy to see Fortune’s Weave and Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter are getting great reviews. Do they have to come out on the same though? 😭

A commission I requested for Pokemon's 30th anniversary. It shows off some staples and some gimmicks, but I think it covers the series well. Shoutout to www.reddit.com/user/alfonsa... for the lovely piece

The fact it’s not coming out this year is truly surprising, but a welcome change. Seem like a step up from Scarlet/Violet. Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in. Damn it

As a pre-alpha playtester, the inspirations for this game are clear, but has its own identity. It's a lot of fun and the Crossed Paths team are very dedicated to their community. If you are able and love JRPGs, support this game!

New video day!
A preview of Legends of Akeroth: Songs of a Lost Age by @crossedpaths.co.uk - a solo+ TTJRPG inspired by SNES classics.
I explored how Legends can find its own identity among TTJRPGs and where I hope to see the project go (one I might be involved with.)

Just because it's a justifiable reason as to why that decision was made doesn't make it any less of an eye roll. I can't help but feel there'$ a certain rea$on why.

You know what would be just as fun? Engaging with fan games or scouring the high seas. There's more value in that than re-releasing one entry in a 30 year old series for 20 bucks
