60 of 269 · most liked firstWatergate was fucking child's play. Call this what it is Senator Murphy, a coup. A coup that is about 70% over at this point. When Trump starts replacing generals with bootlicking sycophants like Michael Flynn, it's game over. The time to be marching in the streets is now.

unlabelledView post →And to expand on this - I wanna see Rommath and Umbric to keep on giving messy divorced-but-future-remarried couple energy, where it's clear (AND IN-GAME) that they're in a relationship/situationship). I wanna see Flynn and Shaw show clear-cut love or a gentle moment, IN-GAME. AND I wanna see MORE.
unlabelledView post →Likewise, we saw some serious queer relationships take root. The Night Fae campaign featured two male Night Warriors whose love is central to that plot, and while it doesn't actually feature in game, the external material began to build up Flynn and Shaw as a couple.
unlabelledView post →There's a LOT they'd have to change to make this work beyond just tuning up the base game. If Ian Flynn can alter Generations' script to make something a little more in line with current times, then I'd love to see him give this game's story a complete overhaul.
unlabelledView post →Ian Flynn haters when they go to Radical Highway and Shadow says "I'm at Radical Highway" (he's referencing the video game he is in that the comic is about).
unlabelledView post →We also got the beginnings of a romance between Stellagosa and Valtrois in the Anniversary, which while also not explicit, was very cute. But at the same time, we finally see Flynn and Shaw together in game again... and their romance is not only ignored, it's made oddly hostile.

unlabelledView post →Besides lying about Hunter Biden, Byrne spread election-fraud lies before Jan 6. He was in the White House with Michael Flynn the night Jan 6 was greenlit (probably as a LESS crazy plan than Flynn's pitch). So it's fair game to point out that his thesis is as much a disaster as his legal team. 2/

Ask why he withheld info to the Biden transition team. Ask about his touring with Flynn & Stone on the Reawaken America Tour.

unlabelledView post →I'm so confused People are in love with all these interactions But they also have the biggest cow that Ian Flynn is the main writer for the game. Make up your minds.
unlabelledView post →that sonic racing game is probably gonna be really fucking good too and there's a weirdly high chance it'll be written by Ian Flynn
unlabelledView post →Nice action plat seems more at home on a handheld than on PC... be a kick to play it on the deck I suppose. Great pixel art, nice music, ok gameplay but everything else is been there done that and it got a bit boring personally. Still a solid effort that should enthuse genre fans at the right sale price.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I do think that sonic heroes deserves an official remake out of all the games plus it'll be fun to see how Ian Flynn would write the characters in that game

unlabelledView post →These losses are frustrating, but anytime the Wolves struggle, it's easy to reminisce on the REAL dogshit days where EVERY game was like that LAC game. I paid $100+ in college (that's a lot in '09!) to watch Flynn/Brewer/Gomes/Big Al/Hollins start (-21.4 rating). MIN lost by nearly 10 pts a game!

unlabelledView post →Another action platformer in metroidvania style that tries to beat the classics. Gameplay is ok nothing out of ordinary - you can collect different weapons for various occasions and upgrades for your character. Lots of exploration where you uncover new parts of the map. Some light story will engage you in this adventure. When you're stuck try another unexplored area with new abilities and such. Visuals are nice and colorful. Music and sounds somewhat decent. Simple game mechanic attack and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Remember when Ken Penders destroyed the longest running video game comics because he didn't like Ian Flynn making his boring ass future story interesting
unlabelledView post →The game is extremely boring in the first part, and I almost dropped it, but the second part is more entertaining, because you get much more abilities and enemies are more interesting to fight against. However, I wouldn't recommend it since I didn't see anything there which I missed in other similar games. Playing it was more like a chore than having fun.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Flynn: Son of Crimson feels like a project that checks off every popular mechanic without actually mixing them in interesting ways and takes forever to get going. For a game this short, it takes over an hour to beat the first five levels and a "boss" just to reach the hub area and the funny thing is the only thing you can do is trade hidden collectibles for currency, as the NPC who teaches skills is still two levels away. To reiterate, you spend roughly a fifth of the game with your basic…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You deserve better. We’re all here for a few weeks and then we die. Spending our time on video games is a noble hobby, to a degree. But you can’t waste it on Flynn the Crimson Guy. This is about 10 hours (?) of open-mouthed nothingness. Speaking to someone who’s only half interested in what you have to say. Slop. Scrolling on social media, but worse, because there sometimes you’ll find kinda funny video. Instead, you walk around a bland platformer, hit-hit-dodge, hit-hit-dodge, guy says some…
