Stay Out of the Deep End

Posted on June 23, 2022 by Nathan

I’m going to guess you want more fish-people, but I’ll admit I’m very bad at predicting what other people want. So let’s just say I want to write more about fish-people. I often go to TV Tropes to see examples … Continue reading →

It’s a Small Video World After All

Posted on July 8, 2021 by Nathan

One thing you might have noticed about video games that ostensibly show the entire world is that these worlds are really small. That’s not too surprising, especially in earlier games with limited space, but it still raises some questions. The … Continue reading →

Dragon vs. Dragon

Posted on July 10, 2020 by Nathan

Since I enjoyed my playthrough of Breath of Fire 2, I decided to go back (figuratively, that is), and give the first one a try. I finished it yesterday, and it wasn’t really that difficult. I did use a walkthrough … Continue reading →

Give God Your Strength!

Posted on June 24, 2020 by Nathan

Breath of Fire 2 – I watched my brother play through this years ago, but I never did myself. I was getting a little frustrated with the other games I was playing, so I downloaded this on the 3DS and … Continue reading →

He Blinded Me with Scienstein

Posted on May 14, 2020 by Nathan

The video game I’ve actually been playing the most as of late is Breath of Fire 2, which I remember from the Super Nintendo. I’m sure I’ll have more to say about it soon. I just got past the part … Continue reading →

Something Old, Something Nue

Posted on October 5, 2019 by Nathan

I was looking at the Wikipedia page listing flying mythological creatures. There were many I’d either already written about or didn’t appear to have much information, but I did take some interest in the Nue, a kind of yokai from … Continue reading →

Dragon Divinity

Posted on May 30, 2019 by Nathan

I can think of a few different video games with dragon gods, or at least dragons with celestial powers. I suppose that fits in with the East Asian conception of dragons, where they tend to be heavenly beings rather than … Continue reading →

Dragons Is the Craziest Peoples

Posted on May 24, 2019 by Nathan

It seems like dragons becoming human or humans becoming dragons is a pretty common theme. I guess it makes sense for a person who turns into animals to become a dragon, as they’re big, powerful, and often intelligent as well. … Continue reading →

Crossed Out

Posted on March 17, 2018 by Nathan

I’ve recently watched a few recommended videos on YouTube (kind of the bane of my free time at this point) and seen some Facebook comments to the effect that Chrono Cross was underrated, and is a better sequel to Chrono … Continue reading →

Taking It to the Streets

Posted on March 5, 2014 by Nathan

While I’ve written quite a bit about video games from my youth, I haven’t said all that much about one of the biggest hits of the early nineties, Street Fighter II: The World Warrior. A one-on-one fighting game that inspired … Continue reading →
