It's 2026 and god help me I will consistently rather than inconsistently make videos that nobody watches
Ranking of the games I played in 2025! Lots of route one picks, and some fun replays for videos: backloggd.com/u/OBlivionCa...
1000xResist (2024): A list of superlatives for a game that constantly transformed itself and seems to have already taken root in me; an all-timer: backloggd.com/u/OBlivionCa...
Letterboxd for video essays send tweet
epic will pay for every game that gets claimed this way so yes, you are still giving money to rowling (and by extension an international campaign against trans people) by claiming this
there are other, better franchises - let this one go
Okami (2006): which does thematic and aesthetic things wonderfully in service of a plot that's Just Okay: backloggd.com/u/OBlivionCa...
Occurred to me I should at least have a few very basic rewards for if any generous people out there are ever able to support the channel. I never know what kind of stuff is good for Patreon so suggestions also welcome! www.patreon.com/c/oblivionbr...

Poster for the video game The Beginner’s Guide (2015). the game’s text in cursive in front of the background of a theatre with open red curtains
The poster for the video game Depression Quest (2013): a series of Polaroids, and the subheading “an interactive (non)fiction about living with depression”
A still from the movie Melancholia (2011), where a celestial object approaches three people sat together on a hill
Okay but this is what the ACTUAL next video is about (I’ve had a very normal autumn)
Dread to think what it says about me that I'm already considering ✨Autobiographical Tangents✨ in essays
Thinking about switching to Linux purely out of One Drive related rage
Got an email from Patreon saying i needed to post an update, lest my page go dark. Which is one way of letting me artfully segue into saying “I have a patreon.” I have since my first upload, in case people are able to support/make life easier, and it’s here: www.patreon.com/oblivionbroa...
And here's my first ever properly pitched and published article, about Legacy of Kain, Gothic sensibilities and the inherent queerness of vampires.

Outer Wilds (2019): A game about which I had Thoughts and Feelings: backloggd.com/u/OBlivionCa...
People that use terms like Roundhouse and Fierce to describe buttons in Street Fighter are cringe, this has been a PSA

Got my first two definitely legit emails from a company insisting they can propel me to 1,000 subscribers. Can only assume this means I’ve Made It™️
Watch this before YouTube’s Restricted Mode makes it a pain in the ass
A still from Spec Ops: The Line. A soldier looks out at a city buried in sand
A still from Predator (1987), a point of view shot showing two soldiers in heat vision
A still from The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021). The three witches, two of them reflected in a pool of water at the feet of a single witch
[insert grindhouse style ‘coming atttactions’ title card here]. Vibes for the next video
Upstairs, Margaret said abruptly, ‘I suppose it starts to happen first in the suburbs,’ and when Brad said, ‘What starts to happen?’ she said hysterically, ‘People starting to come apart.’ youtu.be/dkUOV7wpsOk
If you like this wanna support me directly (esp ahead of my birthday on Monday), you can do so here: patreon.com/oblivionbroa...
New video about suburban horror, trans-ness in I Saw the TV Glow, and David Lynch's romanticism. Trying some new stuff with structure and vibes that I think works pretty well. Including using a gif from @gothydellamorte.bsky.social as a kind of title card

Thinking about one of my favourite shots in John Carpenter’s Halloween and how it’s probably just a little too gnarly for our YT overlords
Carrion (2020): A curious thing that works best when its at its most minimal, abstract, and thematically lean. Enormously satisfying to control, even when exploration itself feels a little hollow: backloggd.com/u/OBlivionCa...
Alan Wake II (2025): Just adored the sheer level of ambition on display, narrative swings, and the moment to moment joy and surprise of watching these stories unfold: backloggd.com/u/OBlivionCa...
