Oh hey, I finally got around to writing a blog. For the first time in months I'm in a writing mood and I think I'm going to go write another and queue it up for sometime later. I wonder how long I can keep feeling productive.

I'm finally home from work and now I can properly freak out about Nocturne and SMT5. The only other guy who new about the direct at work was disappointed in the direct and I just wanted to come here because I knew how excited y'all would be. Nocturne HYPE

So the new Story of Seasons game came out today and I've literally done nothing else but play it since I woke up. It put me in a trance and only hunger was able to snap me out of it. It's a pretty good game I guess.

I am no longer punished, that didn't last as long as I feared.

In case you need one right now, here's a hug

I'm 30 today and that's really weird, but Atlas must have known that I would be feeling odd today so they released Persona 4 on PC to make me feel better about it. I'm sure that's why they did that.

That new trailer has done nothing to assuage my fears about the new Paper Mario. It looks like Color Splash 2. Color Splash was a decent game held back by a pointless battle system, and it looks like once again there will be no reason to battle.

DOOM Eternal was on sale on PS4, so I nabbed it and beat it and loved it. More thoughts and spicy hot takes in the comments. (Terms and conditions apply, any takes may or may not be spicy.)

Hey, so my brother made an hour long video discussing 999 and it's PS4/PC port, so if you like that game maybe check his video out. I even make a cameo in it.

#OpinionToid You guys are cool

I don't know how spicy this take might be, but tool durability in Animal Crossing is significantly more annoying than weapon durability was in Breath of the Wild. Do I ever learn a recipe for tools that don't break? Loving the game otherwise.

Stress tends to turn me into a lurker here, but I'm still here, and I even wrote a blog that will be up soon. I hope you are all doing well, keep on staying inside and social distancing.

Back in December I preordered the special edition of P5R. A month ago I preordered the regular edition. I only just realized that I have preordered this game twice and now I have to cancel one of those preorders. I am the dumb.

I've finally got around to playing Sekiro and just got to the monkey boss. I died. Twice even. I'm starting to get the hang of the combat though, managed to beat the second Edward Scissor-Hands mid boss by deflecting all this attacks and felt untouchable.

My brother sent this to me and it accurately portrays what happened to me while playing the demo and listening to the music inside it.

It's a kaiju game!

In an unexpected twist, I got my Bob blog up a whole week and a few days before the month ended. Get it, because the prompt this month was about subverting expectations?

Because so many of you guys talked about it I ended up buying the splitpad for the Switch and it is a life changer. Due to joycon drift my Switch hasn't really been a handheld device for a while, and it can finally be that again.

A new Hatsune Miku game came out on Switch (in Japan) and there is an option to change all button prompts to PlayStation button prompts because the series was basically PlayStation exclusive until now.

I love Crash Team Racing, but the online is kind of garbage and drove me away from it. My brother did a test to see if the online had gotten better since we played it last year, and the answer is no.

Marvel v Capcom 2 is celebrating its 20th anniversary and is going to be at EVO and all I can think about is this

My secret santa gift arrived, only a little late, but still full of heart and Christmas cheer. Yes that is a picture of a dog included with the gift, and yes, I love it.

I took some of your advice and took most of today off of work to just relax and write, so you can expect a new blog from me soon. I didn't think I would be able to write a BoB blog this month, but I managed to get one out just in time.

Oh hey guys, you don't mind if I use this qpost to vent a little in the comments do you? I think I need a little bit of a venting session.

Spicy Take: The Byleth reveal was a successful reveal because I just bought Three Houses. I probably wouldn't have if Byleth wasn't in Smash.

I got Charmander in the Mystery Dungeon demo, this game knows what's up.

Hey March, can you calm down a little? FF7R, DOOM, Animal Crossing, Nioh 2, Persona 5 R, and now Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. Please stop.

Seeing all these Nintendo Direct Predictions made me think that one had actually been announced.

A new year also means a new month, so of course there's a new Band of Blogger's theme up as well. Give it a look and consider participating. Also, if Disqus could stop being broken, that would be awesome. Not really holding my breath though.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!
