  • Currently replaying The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD. Also have a save going for Stardew Valley and Baldur’s Gate 3 (well, I have a few games going for BG3; I have my solo game, I have a game with my partner, I have a game with my partner and a friend, and then I have a game with my partner and two of his friends). I should also get back into Pathfinder: Kingmaker, but I think at this point I need to restart my save because it’s been so long.









  • I would, in no certain order:

    • Work at a coffee shop part time making coffee for people. Preferably a locally owned shop, but it wouldn’t matter too much if not.
    • Work as a bartender similarly as above
    • Potentially garden if I have the time and interest for it
    • Create more YouTube videos
    • Write, record, and release more music
    • Learn to paint
    • Get a film camera and take photos with it
    • Contribute to FLOSS projects
    • Finally make that D&D table that doubles as a dining table that I’ve been wanting to make for a few months now
    • Actually follow through on learning my several languages I’m working on learning
    • Become an interpreter (probably in ASL)
    • Develop video games
    • Create more art in general
    • Do research on how art and society mingle together and interact







  • Initially it was Animal Crossing: Wild World. One of my parents’ coworker’s daughter was babysitting me before school when I was in 3rd grade and she had the game on her DS and I fell in love with it. Still have the copy I got to this day. However, I wouldn’t say I fully got into the hobby until The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess (Wii). TP especially got me to fall in line with video games as a storytelling medium artistically and narratively.




  • Effectively, console manufacturers should agree on some kind of standard architecture, which, to be very realistic and blunt (apologies as this isn’t necessarily the tone of the post, but I like trying to make things work in some way), as long as Nintendo is in the console game, it’s gonna be a bit difficult (unless we just let them do whatever they want console-wise and have the others create some kind of standard home console arch). As someone who is dipping their toes into game development, that is something I would love to see.
