  • I mainly play Nintendo and indie games, though there are exceptions

  • Click the star on my home page to know the fandoms I'm involved in

Below are my interests. I'm down to talk about these with anyone. I'll add interests as I remember them, and I'll try to keep the ones I'm most currently engaged in at the top.

  • Life is Strange

  • Arcane (not League)

  • The World Ends with You (Series)

  • Honkai Impact 3rd

  • Xenoblade Chronicles (Series)

  • PMMM

  • Kingdom Hearts

  • Bandori

  • Fire Emblem

  • The Legend of Zelda

  • Pokémon

  • Sonic...

  • CLAMP

  • General Nintendo franchises

  • Nier

  • She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

  • Revue Starlight (Only the anime)

  • Code Geass (My favorite anime)

  • Cosmere (Misborn is my favorite book)

  • Heretical Edge/Summus Proelium (Only this low because the communities are niche)

  • Parahumans (+ Twig)

  • RWBY

  • Many indie games (See my games)

A list of codes to add me on various games and systems will eventually be on this page.

  • Bandori ID: 6754611

  • Honkai Impact 3rd ID: 105442090


Below is a list of all the games I've played and enjoyed. These are the rules I made for this list:

  • No multiplayer focused games since those are a very different experience (this includes games I primarily play in multiplayer or games that thrive on their community).

  • I must have played enough of the game to form a solid opinion.

  • Bundles of ports aren’t allowed, but bundles of remakes are.

  • Games that I didn’t like or didn’t leave much of an impression aren’t included (obviously).

  • Understand that this list gets less accurate further down, and there are definitely some games being forgotten. None of this is set in stone for me.

  • Visuals novels are not included. There are some visual novels I love, but it's tough ranking them among all the other games here.

  • These are ranked by which are my favorites, not which I think are the “best.”

  • Games that I’ve watched a playthrough of but not played myself are not included (though a few that stood out to me are listed at the bottom of this page).

  • Lastly, there are a lot of games I played as a kid that probably should be on here, but I don't remember well enough to rank (like a lot of LEGO games).


And now for the games, tentatively ordered favorite to least favorite (but again, all are games I at least like):

Lastly, I wanted to list some games I haven't played (or that I started but never finished), but still loved just from watching them (or from what I played). Since I didn't play these games to credits myself, it'd be difficult to rank them, but they deserve to be listed as games I like. Hell, in some cases, the only reason I didn't finish the game was because my copy kept crashing and I was too far in to start over with a new one.
The games include:
-Kid Icarus Uprising
-Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days
-Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia
-Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
-What Remains of Edith Finch
-Journey
-Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
-Sonic Riders (Beat Hero and most of Babylon)
-Grapple Dog

Below are the accounts I use to post fanfiction on:

This page is for me to rant about media that's left me frustrated. It's not at all necessary, but hey, it feels good to rant.


First I need to talk about Magia Record because...ugh.So I watched the first episode of the anime when it came out, then decided to download and play through the game. I loved it. Arc 1 was such an incredible story that got me emotional at many points, and that I almost preferred to the original if it weren't stuck to a gacha game.Then the game shut down, and I felt like I wasted countless hours pulling for and grinding units. I even spent almost $100 on the game which I now immensely regret. Gacha is an incredibly predatory system, and it stings even more when you lose everything you spent that money on.That's where the anime came in. Season 1 was over by this point, and I loved it. I thought it was an excellent adaptation of chapters 1-5. So when Season 2 rolled around, I had high expectations. And honestly? It delivered. I liked every change, thought the character writing was better than ever, and was at a point where I needed the final season in my life.The final season...hoo boy. It sucked. Massively. It went back on everything that made Magia Record special, did every character dirty, and all around soiled my loved for Magia Record. It made me so frustrated, because at this point I've been burned by Magia Record twice. First the game shutting down, and now the anime ruining the story.There is Arc 2 of the game...but it looks just as bad if not worse than the final season of the anime was. Way too many characters, so much unnecessary angst, and just a mess of a plot. Even if it was available in English soon, I doubt I'd have interest. So needless to say, as much as I love PMMM as a whole, Magia Record has fallen off for me.I still love characters like Yachiyo, Mifuyu, and Tsuruno though.


Next I want to talk about Fire Emblem Three Hopes because... I have some thoughts.THEY WERE SO CLOSE. Let me say right now that I think the Scarlet Blaze route is the best Fire Emblem story. So why don't I like the game? IT'S TOO DAMN LONG.Let me explain. Originally I wasn't going to get this game. I just didn't have any interest in a musou based on Three Houses. However, when the demo dropped I decided to give it a try, since Byleth supposedely being an antagonist had me interested.The demo was amazing. I was having a blast and loving the writing, so I immediately decided to buy the full game. That was equally as fun as first. Scarlet Blaze was the route I picked because I loved the Black Eagles, and it delivered. Monica's inclusion, the way Edelgard was written, the new protagonist, I loved it all. Part 1 wrapped up with me thinking this game would be on part with Three Houses.Then part 2 started and the game kept going...and going...and going. 35 hours in I was still only on chapter 14. Granted, I was doing everything I could up until chapter 12, but still. How many musou games go on for that long? The story itself almost seemed to emphasize the length, but that was just making me wish some stuff was cut out. I just wanted it to end.Now here's the thing. I put 100 hours into Hyrule Warriors on Wii U. So why did this game tire me out? Well, for one thing, the main game of Hyrule Warriors is only 10-15 hours. All those other hours came from DLC maps which brought so much variety to the game. Because of that, each new drop of DLC felt fresh, bringing me back for more. Three Hopes didn't have that. Instead we had the standard musou gameplay and...the hub.Look, I liked the monestary in Three Houses. But it doesn't work as well in a musou game, at least in my opinion. Half of the gameplay was spent trying to coordinate the facilities, units' supports, training, etc. That led to even more fatigue.In the end, I stopped at chapter 14...RIGHT WHEN THE GAME PICKED UP. Without spoilers, the story gets insane from chapter 14 onward, and watching it on YouTube was enough to keep me extremely engaged. Plus, the multiple battles per chapter thing goes away, greatly streamlining the rest of the game. You don't even have to deal with the hub in full again until the final chapter!In a way, I only have myself to blame for stopping when I did, right before it got really good. But then again...if I'm 35 hours into a game and dreading the thought of playing more, can I really be blamed for putting it down?It's a shame, because if Scarlet Blaze alone was an actual Fire Emblem game, I have no doubt it would be my favorite in the series. But instead I'm just so mixed on it, all because of the genre which I don't even hate.As for the other routes...sorry, I have no interest in them. Like I said, I love the Black Eagles. The true ending of Scarlet Blaze is all I need to see.Was the game worth it in the end? Probably. I mean, it gave us Shez and Monica, and that alone is worth $60.Update: I got curious and checked out Azure Gleam. I wish I didn't, as it was so much worse than Scarlet Blaze. I would rant about the particular aspect of the plot that irritates me, but I don't want to spoil it. That said, if you played the route, you can probably guess what part of the story I hate.I also checked out Golden Wildfire. Much better than AG but nowhere near as good as SB. I like what they did with Claude but the whole Almyra thing could've been handled much better.


IT'S SONIC TIME. This had to happen eventually, I suppose, and I've found I have some strong thoughts about Sonic Superstars. Spoilers abound, by the way.The thing is, I think the game as a whole is fantastic. The main campaign was a blast, and if your reward was just getting to play through it as Trip, and the Supersonic boss fight happened at the end of the main campaign like always, I'd consider the game on par with Sonic Rush.That's not what happens though. You have to play through Trip's story. I actually love Trip, and at first I was having a ton of fun playing remixed levels as her. Then the cracks started to show.Trip's campaign is hard mode. And how did they make it harder? Making the already annoying bosses of the game take longer to kill and have some honestly brutal attacks. A lot of them were a pain to fight.But it wasn't terrible. I was still having fun. And then I got to the final Fang fight.I'm not great at games, but usually with some persistence I can take on tough challenges. I beat the original Kid Icarus. I took down Sans. I conquered Stormy Ascent in the N-Sane Trilogy. The longest any of these took me was 5 hours.After 6 hours, I threw in the towel with the Fang fight.Insta-kill lasers. Janky hitboxes. Few opportunities to use your Emerald powers. This fight was HELL. Even after I beat the first phase, the second phase has these AWFUL webs that you get stuck in, and unless you're really good at mashing to get out, the instant death punch that comes after will hit you.I tried. Again. And again. I even got to the very end of the fight where he starts slamming the mech's face down on you. But I just couldn't do it. I kept phasing through those badnicks you're supposed to hit back at him. Or getting screwed over by a minor slope when trying to dodge the webs. Or getting knocked back by his face slam into a bottomless pit.I probably could have done it after another hour or so of attempts but... I don't have it in me. This fight truly wore me down. It soured my impression of Superstars to the point I enjoyed my time with all 3 Rush games over it.I'd still recommend Superstars, but just stop after the main story. Everything after isn't worth the hassle.Edit: One week later my partner was over so I decided to show them how dumb the boss is. I beat it on my 4th try. What is my life?
