#game-blog — Public Fediverse posts

I've been thinking about this game's existential arc lately, and so I thought I would share my first blog post about No Man's Sky, published on Sept 1, 2016 (a little over eight years ago).

"...All my life I have dreamed of exactly this in gaming — an interesting, alternate universe, massive in scale, in which I can freely wander and explore at my own pace. That is what No Man’s Sky is to me, and it’s my observation that many others are similarly moved by the game. The fact that the universe is procedurally generated and that even the game’s creators can’t describe everything that’s out there to be encountered adds to the incredible sense of the unexplored, the alien...."

Question for any content creators out there that might see this:
When doing coverage for a retro game (whether it's streaming, for a video, or a blog) do you prefer to emulate or capture on original hardware?
I'm conflicted as I feel emulating is the obviously easier choice, but there's a part of me that thinks reviewing or talking about a game played on its original system and controller is important.

As the weather starts to cool here, I've been thinking again about Daybreak in Snowhere, a cute little 90's style 3D platformer that feels perfect to welcome in the winter months. I've been wanting to take a look at this game since it caught my eye last year (and I had full intentions of doing that last winter, but here we are now!).

Hi all! Venturing in Mastodon after ditching the crapshows that are 2023 Twitter and Reddit.

I run a blog about dragons in video games called Wyverns and Waypoints. It's not the most active, but I've been a bit lost on what to do with it after leaving most social media. My most recent post features a 90’s inspired 3D platformer by a solo indie dev.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to figuring out this platform and hope to have some good game conversations!
