Fire Emblem: Three Houses has me by the balls and I don’t intend on asking it to let go. The recent hubbub over the new Apex Legends character has me thinking about diving back into that for the first time in forever, too.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses!  I picked this up last weekend and even though I’m only four hours in, I need more.  Blue Lions 4 lyfe.

Nex Machina and Resogun are two of the most fun arcade-style games I’ve ever played.  Here’s hoping Housemarque kills it with whatever is next.

I’ve been playing A Hat In Time lately and its just been delightful. The usual 3D platformer camera wonkiness aside, the game has been bright, lighthearted fun (except for the haunted house level, which was great in a different way). I’m hoping to finish that up this weekend. If I do, I’m thinking about doubling down…

Skatebird is something I didn’t know existed until an hour ago and now I need it SO BADLY.

Roguelikes don’t usually do it for me, but a roguelike that makes other games?  Yeah I’m there.

HELL. YES. Vanquish is a fantastic game and I’d absolutely play it again.

Yeah, I’m firmly in the non-issue camp here.  Plenty of games show you the ghosts of failed runs.  Super Meat Boy and N++ just to name a few.

The trailer for the next Destiny season lit my fire again, so I’ll probably shake off a little rust there this weekend.  I also hope to start Indivisible.

First off, let me join the chorus of people hoping that Kotaku doesn’t follow Deadspin into the great beyond. This is one of the few sites I go to directly on a daily basis that isn’t Reddit. Losing Kotaku would be devastating.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

I’d be perfectly content watching two hours of previews (although I said I wouldn’t pay for this privilege).

Looks like no news on the Android release :(

There are too many video games that I want to play releasing over the next few months.  How do you prioritize in the busy fall through holiday release season?

Gollum was less obsessed with his Precious.

This seems to be the norm with Tokyo RPG factory -- JRPGs that look and at least slightly feel like ones of old but don’t have the meat and bones behind them.

You should be able to allow ads to display on certain sites with most if not all ad blockers.  I allow ads on Deadspin/Kotaku/i09/etc. for that reason.

Going to keep banging my head against the competitive crucible wall in Destiny 2 since I’ve decided this is the season I’m finally finishing up those quests. Hope to find some time for Slay the Spire as well.

Thank you so much for including a transcript of the video.  I know some other writers, namely Heather, do this and I’m sure I’m not the only reader who appreciates it.

I’m in the same boat with Mario Maker 2.  I know I won’t take the time to make any decent levels and will only end up playing the good ones made by others.
