I used to play the Bloom outro on piano all the time 😩👌👌👌

my chinese art history professor in college asked me why i knew so much about the romance of the three kingdoms, and at the time i did not have the heart? the balls? to tell her that it was because of my childhood obsession with dynasty warriors

also sorry to the people who didn't know i'm a bro. my roots are entirely the bro-iest XBL 360 titles, gears of war and all that jazz

i half expected to wake up in the middle of the night with the sudden realization and regret that i'd left something very important out lmfao

i still feel like i'm forgetting something...

i put down automata for a YEAR after doing the first ending, and it was only after starting the second run and beginning to realize the shape of the entire game did i feel so incredibly silly that i hadn't just played it sooner lmao. prob the most memorable ending to any video game i've ever played

special mentions to KH2 and Animal Crossing, games i've def put well over 200 hours into but somehow still didn't make it in the top 9

I think the FGC deserves better writing and conversation.

Please support my work on Patreon (patreon.com/pattheflip) or buy my book (patrickmiller.itch.io/from-masher-...). My work is the most impactful when it's freely accessible, but I need your help to keep it that way.

This one was a lot of fun to write, and took me about a week of morning writing sessions. This is the kind of work I want to do more of going forwards, and I'm really excited to dig into this kind of thing for a while and see where it takes me. Please give it a read and share with your own thoughts!

"Why haven't fighting games died yet?"

I wrote about the unique strengths of the fighting game genre that have allowed fighting games to survive multiple generations of evolution intact, and why you didn't fall in love with a product. Warning: This is a long one.

"Why rollback and netplay events are good for locals, actually"

Last night I hosted a sweet locals session out of my garage and then after cleaning up I read one of the worst fighting game takes in recent memory, so here's my attempt to upcycle it.
