@Okami13_ What are you playing on?

Crimson Desert EARLY impressions: • Visuals looks even better in person • There is almost zero handholding, you need to figure things out yourself • Controls are definitely confusing at first but I started to get the hang of it within a couple hours • There is so much to do JUST in the opening town. It's actually kind of overwhelming 😆 • The world very much feels lived in. You can talk to nearly every NPC for some useful info or XP. • Interactivity is insane, everything has physics and objects can interact with each other • Really like the combat so far, excited to try out different weapons • Story has been slow in the opening hours, hopefully it starts to pick up

@YoshidaShoyou @NISAmerica Can’t wait to do a full replay next week! Peak!

All love to @NISAmerica for providing a review code for Trails Beyond the Horizon! I’ve been playing the switch 2 ver. and it’s been GOAT. RAW. FIRE AND PEAK TO THE MAX! To celebrate the release of the game, we’re finally gonna do that favorite trails game ranking next week 🙏

@MrJerryOC I didn’t blow it. Purdy dropped me a solid 60 points. Better luck next year, Jerry!

You blew it.

@YoshidaShoyou We need Monolith to take over 2026 with a new game!

10 or so games to get to know me

@Blutman27 As an A&M fan I dread whoever has to go up against Robert Henry Jr. I expect him to be at a big program next year.

Winners Today 1. Taylor Fritz beats Carlos Alcaraz what da heck 2. Texas Tech by TKO 3. Ahmad Hardy for Heisman please 4. Indiana pulverizes inferior competition 5. Robert Henry Jr. just makes big plays happen

@BFW A&M will prove it with a win over ND! Gig’em 👍

Current SEC power rankings 1 LSU 2 Georgia 3 Mississippi State 4 Texas 5 Auburn 6 Tennessee 7 Missouri 8 Florida 9 Ole Miss 10 South Carolina 11 Oklahoma 12 Texas A&M 13 Vanderbilt 14 Alabama 15 Arkansas 16 Kentucky

@BarstoolBigCat @PFTCommenter I didn’t expect to see this at Kyle Field!

@YoshidaShoyou “Send Her”

STOP THE PRESSES. HOLD THE PHONE. WAIT A MINUTE. WAIT A WHOLE MINUTE!!!!!!!!!! THIS PARTY MEMBER’S NAME IS WHAT???????????!!!!!!??????!!!!!?!?!?!???!?!??!??

@YoshidaShoyou Pain

How am I supposed to keep playing this game?

@YoshidaShoyou I’m staying awake later than I should just for these reactions!!!

OH HECK NAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. DONT SOIL ONE OF MY GOATS NAMES WITH THIS NONSENSE. THIS MECHANICAL STEEL BALL RUN THING COULD NEVER MATCH UP TO ONE OF THE GREATEST TO EVER DO IT

@YoshidaShoyou Let’s gooo!!!

I can’t believe we’re actually here. It’s time

@bippy_b @BFW @Sengun_MVP @Chase13167253 @c_g_lu Definitely some people I’d have lower but I can understand the argument that Reed needs to prove it. Which I think he will. It’s only a pre season ranking. He’ll get the doubters quite.

@JacobBench5 @BFW @Sengun_MVP @Chase13167253 @c_g_lu Not with Green at 7. Reed > Green every day and twice on Sundays.

My top 10 quarterbacks in the SEC. Please read and react calmly and in an orderly fashion.

@BFW @Sengun_MVP @Chase13167253 @c_g_lu Reed definitely needs to prove himself more but I’d still have him at 10. Now I admit I haven’t watched any Mississippi State football besides when we played them but is there a lot of hype with your guy going into this season?

@Sengun_MVP @Chase13167253 @c_g_lu I watched them all. He was fine. But LSU being completely unprepared for him coming into that game set an unrealistic expectation.

@Lookout_its_Jax Great game. Let’s settle it tomorrow!

Literally just throwing the game rn 🙂

@Genki_JPN If one of my favorite developers made a game in the vein of my favorite movie ever… that would be insane.

Yoshi-P says he would love to make a game like Studio Ghibli's Laputa Castle in the Sky! "It's full of dreams, adventure, good adults, bad adults, it's all there. I still think it's the ultimate adventure, so I'd like to make a game like that someday." famitsu.com/article/202507…

@TwilightSomnus I’m caught up and I still don’t forgive her.

@GenePark Great review! How long did it take you to roll credits?

My review is a vibe! Kojima is that cool and smart friend who’s always recommending great indie music to you. My review tries to capture that same feeling. washingtonpost.com/entertainment/…

@YoshidaShoyou How you have no played these games yet is crazy. It’s peak!

DAWG ITS ONLY CHAPTER 1?!?!?! WE GOT ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS, HANDS, HINTS OF HEAVEN, HANDS, CRAZY PARTY DYNAMICS, HANDS, BETRAYALS, HANDS, WE DIED, HANDS, THE SMASH BROS GIRL, HANDS AND NOW ITS REAL SHONEN TRANSFORMATION HANDS?! THIS GAME IS SPEAKING MY LANGUAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Lookout_its_Jax May the best team win!

There aint any baseball rivalry like the Rangers and the Astros!

@GenePark How many are there? I’m in act 2 and really enjoying the game! I plan to do it all.

highly recommend completing the super bosses of expedition 33. it’s like DLC for the base story. also they’re incredibly challenging, i was getting my ass kicked with my entire party at level 99. unless you build toward the 1 billion damage setup!
