Posted on February 6, 2017 by baudattitude

One of the things that most annoys me about my blogging is that I’m never quite sure how to capitalize post titles – should they just have initial cap, or should they follow normal title capitalization rules, where significant words … Continue reading →

Posted on February 4, 2017 by baudattitude

Backlog reduction project continues. With most everything I play on PC coming from Steam this days, it’s easy to forget that I picked up quite a few indie games on various trips to Japan, which have wound in a box … Continue reading →

One of the first manga series I was introduced to, wayyyyy back in the early 90s, was “Ushio and Tora”, a series about a young lad who is supposed to take over the family shrine and who has to put … Continue reading →

I Kept Waiting For The Shark

Press Enter Simulator 2015

Posted on September 14, 2015 by baudattitude

I’m not going to lie, I probably spent more time playing FFXIV this weekend than was really healthy.  It’s a super pretty game and I’m just starting to get my head around some of the weirder systems. That said, I … Continue reading →

Song of Saya : Dear God, That’s Bleak

Posted on December 21, 2014 by baudattitude

I regret nothing

Posted on July 17, 2014 by baudattitude
