Yeah, though I will say that I do think I enjoyed playing as Lucia more than Dante. Not sure if that's a hot take or not. I just think that the throwing knives felt better than the guns.

This Week's Movie: Army of Darkness It seems my tastes are confusing since I didn't like Evil Dead 2 as much as the first because it was sillier, but this one was very cartoony, yet I think it's now my favorite one because it was just fun. Maybe I just want commitment to one end of the spectrum.

Post a movie you like with a terrible Rotten Tomatoes score. Now this may just be nostalgia talking considering I loved this movie as a kid and had a bunch of the toys, but this score feels way to low in my opinion. It may not be a masterpiece by any means, but it's not a bad movie.

As someone who played through it for the first time recently, I can confirm that holding down the shoot button until you win is the most effective way to deal with most of the bosses.

So I just got a Christmas Disney World ad on Youtube and all I gotta say is for fuck's sake, it's mid September! Cool your goddamn jets!

Yeah, I got all 3 on sale. Which is good since yeah, $20 is the limit of what I'm willing to pay for an amiibo. The fact that they're normally priced at $40 is insane to me.

This Week's Movie: Sinners Pretty good, but part of me liked it way more before the vampires showed up. Like I became less invested once it turned into horror, which is weird for me. I don't know. It almost felt like two different scripts stapled together, though overall still a really solid movie.

You know what, I'm just gonna say a New Punch-Out or Pokken Tournament 2, just because those are (other than Smash) the only two things that would get my to bite the bullet and buy a Switch 2.

Just finished season 2 of Twisted Metal and man is it great. Probably better than season 1 considering that we get the tournament in this one. I hope it gets a third season. Also Sony, can we please get a physical release of this show in Region 1? Why do other territories get it, but we don't?

Disclaimer I should add that's in the book itself and on the back. While this book is meant to replicate a children's picture book, it is NOT for children due to violence, blood and suggestive themes. If you ignore all the warnings and give it to a kid, don't blame me, that's on you at that point.
Ken Daniels (@kenthenoun.bsky.social) reply parent
A physical version will be available on the day of release. Don't know why there isn't a pre-order page for it. Amazon is weird. The physical version will be priced at $10. I know that's a bit more than digital version, but please understand that's due to the cost of printing colored paper.

Saw some of the Halloween Fanta at the grocery store and an idea occurred to me when I saw Freddy Fazbear on the orange. While I get Universal wanting to promote multiple movies, they totally could have done a full FNAF set. Freddy on Orange Bonnie on Grape Chica on Pineapple Foxy on Strawberry

Man, RWBY got totally shafted in this game. Being in a game advertised as a 4-way crossover and easily getting the least amount of love out of the series in the base game by only ending up with 5 characters is so disappointing.

This Week's Movie: Evil Dead 2 It was fine. When I was told that I didn't need to watch the first one I didn't think they meant "It's more or less the first movie again, but more tongue in cheek." As someone who likes the silly & goofy, it's weird to say I think I prefer the more serious first one.

I would be lying if I said that the idea of Hasbro vs. Capcom hasn't crossed my mind as a hypothetical game a few times over the years. So much so that in a book series of mine it's canon that's what they have instead of Marvel vs. Capcom simply because Marvel and DC don't exist in that universe.

I am sad to say that my cat Rocky passed away. He lived a good 16 year long life being the last of the childhood pets. He may have been scared of almost everything and as dumb as a brick sometimes, but he was a good cat. I'm going to miss him.

Also giving Myers a dash feels wrong. I mean I'm going to have to play him to see how it feels in action, but on paper that doesn't feel fitting the character. Myers in a slow, stalking wall of meat. Giving him a dash feels out of character like if you gave Vecna a gun.
Ken Daniels (@kenthenoun.bsky.social) reply parent
As someone who plays both, the anti-slugging seems like the only good change here. Sure, being tunneled is annoying, but what? The killer gets punished if they happen to find the survivor they previously hooked because they mess up or the other survivors do a good job at hiding? How is that fair?

This Week's Movie: K-Pop Demon Hunters If I had a nickle for every good animated movie that Sony dropped the ball with by just dumping it on Netflix, I'd have 2 nickles. Fun action, great music, really likable characters. I heard that 2 more might be coming and if they are, I look forward to them.

Nice I actually started watching it today as well. Though for me it was due to playing through Lucy's arcade mode in Guilty Gear and going "Okay fine! I'll watch the show."

I like that they change what character they're made about. Going from calling them a Mishima player to a Yoshi main. Unless are they are implying that Yoshimitsu is one of Heihachi's other illegitimate children.

This Week's Movie: The Evil Dead It's fine. Had some pretty wince inducing gore, even if it looked cheap at times. It somehow felt slow and rushed at the same time. Going in I was told by friends that could just skip this one, but I chose not to. I'll see how true that is once I get to Evil Dead 2.

I question why Myers is getting a rework. I mean I think he's fine. If anyone needs a (slight) rework it's Springtrap. Having aiming and throwing the axe be two separate buttons is so clunky and unnatural feeling. Just have it be hold and release like The Huntess.
Ken Daniels (@kenthenoun.bsky.social)
This Week's Movie: Murder On The Orient Express (1974) Pretty good, though I feel like it got a bit too messy at the end and all I could think of was that one Smiling Friends episode since I had the same reaction of "Jesus Christ, how many people killed this guy?" or at least stabbed his corpse.

Just finished the first draft of a more experimental project of mine. One that once it's edited and I'm happy with it I plan on posting chapters weekly to Royal Road instead of a book on Amazon. Reason why is that I think that'll work better with this story and I'm just throwing stuff at the wall.

It seems that every game other than SF2 are pretty underrepresented. And now that I say that I now half expect Season 4 to consist of Vega, Balrog, Fei Long and T. Hawk, just to mess with us and get the rest in there.

This Week's Movie: Scream VI Pretty good, I'd rank it somewhere in the middle among the rest of the series. I liked the whole thing with the masks of the previous Ghostfaces being used as a countdown. I totally called who one of the Ghostfaces was right away. Also I dislike Gale now. She sucks.
