I know a 6 hour long youtube video about a PS1 game you’ve never played is a hard sell, but I swear you’ll love it. Going into something blind and leaving with an extensive knowledge of the subject and the author’s relationship with it is stupidly rewarding. Believe it or not you will be moved by this untranslated 24 year old video game! I watch this like twice a year lol, if you only watch one Action Button review make sure it’s this one

I always learn so much from playing Yoko Taro's games but this one hit like nothing I’ve experienced before. It actually pushed me to finish my album. It’s such a beautifully confusing story. A tale of androids and machines questioning if they are actually alive or not. With this you have to beat it multiple times to experience the entire thing. (Endings A-E) One alternate ending can be found within minutes of starting the game. The credits even roll but at triple speed. The hardest one to get “Ending E” took me about 40 hours over the course of a few months and It’s one of the greatest endings in any type of media period in my opinion. I won’t dare spoil it. If you like weird games and if you like beautiful strange stories about existentialism please play this

ive never been much of a gamer, but I recently tried playing that’s not my neighbor and it was actually really fun (perhaps because of its rather simple game setup) so I’m kind of invested into playing more but primarily ones with more serious storylines
this vid here caught my eye today (highly recommend, very well organized and made me think a lot about my own experiences!!)
i first encountered silent hill 2 when I was 12 and I didn’t really process the story or its themes in that first gameplay but revisiting the game as an adult has kind of blown my mind a bit by just how heavy the emotional weight of the game is (and how I had no business playing it at the age of 12…)
I haven’t played mouthwashing but I am really interested in playing it after watching this video
interested in other recommendations as well!

Seeking shelter in my catholic elementary school that has a cathedral inside the cathedral. Riding a Disneyland dark ride through every home I lived in as a kid. Driving down a highway that I understand to be inside of the Infinite Jest cover. Seeing a Tarantino movie about my friend in a theater that’s part-Pantheon part-hospital from Silent Hill 2.
Usually nothing really happens, I’m just sitting or walking around watching everyone else exist. They almost always feel melancholic/stilted, but I really enjoy it! I try and draw them in my dreams note if I can remember once I wake up

Once a day allow yourself to slip into the hazy plane between waking life and habitual existence, as a treat
