I'm apparently bad at marketing myself because we still get people who haven't heard of GOODTIMES Zone!
If you're a fan of me or my friend Kirran or the both of us talking over games, weird YouTube videos, or making tier lists, WE DO THAT MOST DAYS.
As of today I no longer work for
@teamfourstar
. You'll still see some videos I was a part of go up over this year, but 2023 officially marks the end of my employment with them. It was a wild ride and a life-changing opportunity, and I wish them the best!
Thank you for playing.
Can't stop thinking about how I lost to someone named Ghost_Nappa in FighterZ yesterday. This will follow me for the rest of my days.
They didn't even use Nappa.
I hope Sonic in the movie isn't even animated - I just want Ben Schwartz running around in a big Sonic mascot costume and no one calls attention to it.
Toriyama was a monumental storyteller who inspired so many with his work. He was practically the cornerstone of everything I enjoy in manga/anime. We have truly lost one of the greats.
Results are in - this annoying cold I've had is, in fact, Covid.
Been feeling a lot better the last couple days so I'm hoping I'm already on my way out of it, though.
Everyone remembers Deku vs Todoroki, but Ururaka vs Bakugo is secretly one of the best fights in the series too. Also her call with her dad is a great moment.
That time Piccolo lost to a tiny opponent in the Tournament of Power and the other characters beat him by listening for his attacks when Piccolo HAS SUPER HEARING.
I notice Popeye is trending, so here's a reminder that THIS 3D background appeared in a cartoon back in 1936(!). It was created using "The Stereoptical Process", which used a model as a background to 2D animation. Wow.
Something I'm liking about Sword/Shield that I hadn't really thought about is how many Pokemon with frustrating evolution methods you can find fully evolved in the wild.
Who needs to trade if I can just stumble onto a Machamp or Gengar in the Wild Area!

Nothing really "happened," I just wanted to move on to something new and made the decision to leave at the end of the year. After working with the same company for seven years, I think it's fairly natural.
If anything this year proved to me that I really don't need/want a constant deluge of superhero films. I might actually enjoy the next one instead of just feeling driven by zeitgeist now.
Was on a hot streak in FighterZ until I got demolished by someone with the tag "Ghost Nappa."
Gonna check myself in somewhere. I shouldn't be by myself in times like these.
I'll have more updates to announce when I can, but for now you can find me on my personal Twitch/YouTube channels, where I plan to update and work on full-time this year!
Mom's funeral was today and it was a lovely service full of people celebrating a life they loved. Helping write an obituary is something I never expected to do, and hope I don't have to any time soon. But I think we came up with something good.
Lost one of the first friends I ever made to brain cancer tonight. Geoff was a hilarious dude who was always kind, and amazingly creative. We grew up building whole universes together with our Legos or imagining his backyard was some crazy fantasy land.
You'll be missed, buddy.
There’s some handy changes coming to
#PokemonSwordShield
to make your adventure even smoother! You’ll now be able to access your Pokémon Box almost anywhere, making changes to your team a breeze. There’s also a new Autosave option so your game will save itself periodically.
I forgot how much I like the DBZ stuff on Namek. I usually only think about Goku vs Freeza when I remember it, but the stuff with Krillin/Gohan, Vegeta, and Freeza stealing the Dragonballs from each other is so fun.
Kinda can't believe a new Pokemon game is out and people are wasting so much energy just being mad about it.
It's fine if you're disappointed or it didn't meet your expectations. Just don't buy it. Play something else and be happy about THAT instead!
I think the EXP Share being forced ON in Sword/Sheild is a silly choice, but by no means a real problem or worth being upset about.
Oh no, baby's first JRPG lets me avoid or at least offset some grinding. What a terrible thing.
I don't think the Sonic movie was bad, but it's not nearly as good as the internet is pretending it is.
But Sonic fans have been telling themselves bad things were actually okay for years, so I'm not surprised they think an actually okay thing is great.
I'm holding up okay if you're worried - much more celebrating life than mourning a loss. There will be tough days ahead full of little things I'll miss and tiny reminders everywhere I look, but I know I loved her, and that she loved me.
And there's no way that can ever change.
I think I sat in the nerdiest aisle of the plane on my flight to Ohio. The guy to my left had his Switch, I was listening to a podcast about video game music, and the guy to my right was reading comics on his tablet.
None of us said a word to each other.
My Hero Academia is one of the first anime in a while that I genuinely enjoy watching it dubbed more than subbed. Usually I can do either fine, and subbed MHA is FAR from a bad experience, but I really like what the dub cast brings to the series.
"How come every cop is good in Spider-Man game?"
Because in this fictional universe New York has had local superheroes for at least a decade cleaning up the streets and likely the NYPD with it. Scummy cops are likely REALLY GOOD AT HIDING IT if they avoided notice for 10 years.
I like to imagine my FighterZ team is just Cooler scouting new talent in Vegeta and Nappa, and trying to stage a coup against Freeza with his own henchmen.
Team Coup-ler, if you will.
Might not be on streams or anything much the next few weeks. Mom's in the middle of a pretty major Covid scare and I'm in a rough head space about it. I'm keeping myself busy to distract myself, just not feeling up to entertaining right now.
Thank you for your patience.
