Reviewing games helps me argue that the countless hours of gaming is actually me being productive. I’m especially drawn to RPGs and survival horror, though I also love exploring indies of all genres. Some of my all-time favorites include Planescape: Torment, Earthbound, Guild Wars 2, Persona 5, and The Evil Within 2. I game on a variety of platforms - PC, Steam Deck, Nintendo Switch, and PS5 - and I’m proudly passionate about the PlayStation Portal.
