Good Morning! Both sound like great plans, hope you enjoy!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm sorry for what you had to go through ๐ซ๐ซถ
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Hey Lach, all good here thanks! No news is good news I hope? ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Hahaha busted ๐ I'm gonna try and steal that big guy from that class, he looks like a tank. Thanks!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
That's a nice offer, I'd say marry her if you hadn't already just done so ๐ I get that, it must be great but also tiring. I have to enjoy my free time until I'm hopefully lucky enough to become a dad ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
It is kinda nice to just do that at times ๐ looks like a game you can easily sink many hours into. Going well although it's mostly been Hollow Knight these past days! No big event yet, I'm just at the part where you fight alongside Catherine for the first time, if that helps ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Haha I didn't even notice it ๐ That's great though man! Switching jobs can really give a nice, well needed boost
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Barely having time for games is next level stuff ๐ฌ hope it has been extremely busy with mostly good stuff! And that things calm down a bit for you so you can get some more chill, game time in ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
It might be a little bit of that as well, yeah! The whole, general battery is a bit empty during the working week now ๐ Thanks! What about you, enjoying FF16? ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Oh wow and here I am complaining about being busy! ๐คฏ That all sounds great man, happy to hear it! And congrats on the new job! Exciting times, all the best to your wife and you this last month ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
It definitely all depends on that, yeah ๐ nothing more demotivating than running into walls all the time
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Ohh yeah that's almost upon us! These last days always last the longest though ๐ญ Hope the life and job stuff is going smoothly!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Oh damn, straight into the middle of it ๐ maybe you made such a good impression that they immediately trust you with the bigger stuff! And yeah I honestly expected myself to bounce off as well, but strangely enough it did the opposite so far ๐ hope it works out for you this time
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Those are all very good points! The only reason that is not so good is the work part ๐ all good over here besides that, thanks! I hope you are as well?
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Oh no that's the game that's a bit hit and miss at times huh ๐ญ Hope the new job is treating you well? At first I thought you meant bugs as in glitches ๐ but I guess it means it's the same as the one I'm playing!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Peak indeed! What are you playing currently?
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Haha just say the word man! I'd be happy to bless your podcast with a wonderful Dutch accent ๐

Always honored to be included, thanks a lot my friend!

I have thought about launching this podcast for almost 2 years. Finally, episode 1 of The Big Nerd Gaming Podcast launches today. @andresplays.bsky.social and I discuss our biggest disagreements with game critics this year. I hope you enjoy! It's also on Spotify. youtu.be/TXdPwHXoCLo?...
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Let's goooo! Congrats on the first episode mate. Will definitely set some time aside for this this week. 2 goats talking games can only lead to a great podcast
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social)
Haven't been interacting a whole lot on here lately. I'm incredibly busy at work (and in the evening..*ahem*..incredibly busy with Hollow Knight and/or Fire Emblem: Three Houses). Hope to be more social again soon, and that you're all well!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Good Morning my man! Just makes you wanna
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
It's incredibly designed ๐คฉ
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social)
I've got new games to play, reviews to write..but all I can do at the moment is play Hollow Knight. This is pretty amazing

I have a lot of reviews to catch up on right now, so I decided to drop three shorter ones in one post! Here are my reviews for... -Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound -Sword of the Sea -Is This Seat Taken? bignerdgaming.com/2025/09/09/o...
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Ah I just saw it does haha. Might take you up on that. Will first try a bit longer to figure it out ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Does this go for Hollow Knight as well? ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Oh man same ๐ loving the game but I've spend 3 hours last night just going in circles without any progress ๐ซ
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Happy birthday man! ๐ฅณ
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Lovely Sunday to you too friend! And yes, you're right ๐ Currently on 2 out of 3 so I'm on schedule
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Morning Bryan! Or probably..afternoon by now
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Oh yeah looks like it'll have huge replay value. Multiple people told me the routes are actually really different, so replaying it one day seems like a good idea ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Thanks man, hope you have a great day as well!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
It certainly looke like it is mate! ๐ I went with the Black Eagles. Read so many good things about the game, and it seems to deliver immediately. Loving these opening hours!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Good Morning bud!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Gotta touch the grass every now and then ๐ have a nice trip! Also loving HK so far so I'm excited to jump into Silksong afterwards
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Good Morning my friend, thanks! Enjoy Death Stranding, I'm starting to miss that game. Happy to see it appear again through your posts ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Good Morning bro! Thanks, you too! Silksong Sunday I hope? ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social)
Good Morning! โ๏ธ Sundays are supposed to be relaxing, but how can I relax when I have to choose between playing Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Quartet and Hollow Knight? It's not easy. Not easy at all. Anyway, hope you all have a great Sunday!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah it does look very similar based on what I've seen on Journey. Never played it myself but it also seems full of vibes and less on story
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Haha awesome, then it really must be great ๐ Be as annoying as you'd like ๐ Thanks! So far I love every gameplay aspect, story and characters seem interesting as well, so we're off to a very good start!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Always appreciate you checking it out mate! And yeah, I get that. Hope things settled down a bit for you. The fact that you're now catching up is hopefully a good sign ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
You didn't lie when you said you were gonna catch up on all articles huh ๐ thanks so much mate, that means a lot! It's also the one I still liked writing the most. It came from deep ๐ Yeah these EA sports experiences are probably all quite similar in that way ๐ญ
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Thanks! So they're all a bit like this? It's just a very chill experience I guess, one I really need to be in the mood for. Definitely had its charm though
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Thanks man! And yeah, you have good points. Games can be overwhelming, and the choices the devs made with Sword of the Sea just makes it a very chill, laid-back kind of experience. Easy difficulty to just be able to soak it all in in peace I guess. There's plenty to be said for that
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Haha thank you! And that sounds great. Usually when routes are just too similar, I often give up pretty early in a second run. This sounds promising ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Nice to meet you too Leah! ๐ and I'll be sure to share them
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
That's great to hear! ๐ can't wait to discover it all
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Thanks! Loving it as well so far. If the other routes are a different enough experience, I definitely plan on playing them as well! ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
I was looking for a nice story driven one, and this one certainly seems to deliver ๐ can totally see myself putting huge numbers in as well
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
That's what I'm thinking so far! I'm also getting some Persona vibes, which I love. I went with the Black Eagles! ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
I guess the advise of someone who played it 23 times is something I should completely trust ๐ good to know!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm gonna let myself be surprised by everything first. After that I'll look into what is wise ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Wow, yeah then you must really love it ๐ it does seem to have a lot of replay value with these 3 houses
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social)
Started Fire Emblem: Three Houses and it seems exactly like the type of thing I'm going to love ๐คฉ
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
It really looks amazing. During the intro I was honestly wondering if I was looking at actual real life footage, until it turned the camera around and the gameplay started.
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Fantastic choices, the only one I didn't see was knifes out. Loved the other 3
Snow (@snoweternal.and.cat) reposted
Just rolled credits on Cronos. Easily Bloober Team's best original game. The story is a bit slow at first, it is very intriguing, though. The final stretch of the game is outstanding. Atmosphere, vibes, enemies, lore...all superb. Gameplay especially feels just great. I do hope we get more. ๐ค
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Always appreciate you! And yes, it sure is ๐คฉ

For anyone who would like to see some gameplay along my review, or who is simply too lazy to read (as I often am), here's my video review version of Sword of the Sea: youtu.be/9h5nt6dhe8Y
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Interesting read by the way! Now let's hope you won't have to spend the weekend fighting people again ๐

Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Hollow Knight I guess ๐ and Quartet

Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
I'll never understand why that's too much to ask ๐ญ Thanks man!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
It's already whispering. By then it'll be screaming ๐ Definitely picking it up when that happens
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
true! ๐ I'm just going to let that discount decide when I'm mentally ready for this ๐ฌ
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
That's absolutely true. It's the reason it still really attracts me, despite the fact that I hate it at the same time ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
๐ I can imagine
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
I really need a nice discount to kick in so I can try to expose myself to this..horror ๐

Good Morning my man! Glad you're having such a great time with it. Have a good one!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Very accurate ๐
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
I wasn't sure if that was even an English saying ๐ Thanks man, glad to hear it!
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Totally agree with this, I need that as well. Or absolutely amazing gameplay that compensates the lack of story
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Thanks! That one does look cool as well. I'm getting very similar vibes from all of them though. Gotta be in a specific, chill mood for them I guess
Born for Media (@bornformedia.bsky.social) reply parent
Thanks! Yeah it's definitely one of those typical "gotta be in the right mood" type of games. It's a nice one for when you want to clear your head a bit I guess ๐ Cool, might give that a listen soon! Thanks for the heads up!

Sword of the Sea didnโt quite manage to keep me fully engaged when it came to gameplay or story. For me, the game could have used a bit more bite. Thankfully, thatโs balanced out by its gorgeous art style and soundtrack. My full review ๐ bornformedia.com/sword-of-the...
