My 10 Favorite Games of 2022 Part 1 (#10-6)
10.Wordle [PC/Mobile]
A simple, and devastatingly effective, piece of design. Damn near anyone can play and anyone can get it. Wordle is the pinnacle of game as watercooler. A brilliant little brain tickler that really only asks for about 20 minutes of your day at a time.
9. Vampire Survivors [Xbox/PC]
Vampire Suvivors is a deceitful dollop of dopamine. What starts as a borderline idle game becomes a demon-hunting, castlevnia-like by way of pacaman scrambling out of the proverbial pocket like a gothic quarterback. VS's depth is astounding, and it's screenfilling domination is absolute hijacking of the pleasure center.
8. Immortality [Xbox/PC]
Immortality is a fascinating expirement in narrative. An FMV game that directly distills the essence of film and game. The story of Marissa Marcel is a weird, wild and unhinged excercise in creativity.
7. Marvel Midnight Suns [Xbox/PC/Playstation]
The creators of X-Com: Enemy Unknown have spun out the most creative Marvel games to date. It's a bizarre stew; 1 part deckbuilder, 1 part turn-based strategy, 1 part Persona, 1 part marvel reality show. The result is a mechanically brilliant and wonderfully goofy game, that calls to a time before the MCU.
6.Citizen Sleeper [Xbox/PC/Switch]
This narrative, space, tabletop-lite RPG is strikingly human. Citizen Sleeper is deeply and reverently empathetic. It's story of disability, disenfranchisement, survival and community is among the most touching pieces of fiction in all of 2022.

Citizen Sleeper
Citizen Sleeper was fine. The writing was serviceable, and the setting was moderately interesting. The gameplay concept was where it had the most promise, but even when I was low on resources, I never had to sacrifice anything or make hard choices. I did everything I wanted to and neither money nor condition nor energy ever were a huge problem.
And then eventually it was me being more or less flush with resources as I had to wait for things to move at a glacial pace, whether it was putting mushrooms in one by one or waiting six days for the next in a quest chain to trigger.

i understand why ppl don’t believe quackity rlly didnt know abt the working conditions with the admins, it’s his server, he should be overseeing everything, etc etc. but i think many ppl aren’t taking into consideration how massive of a project the qsmp is and how big the team is. on top of the roleplaying admins (eggs, capys, bunnies) there’s likely lots of offscreen admins, builders, mod devs, writers, artists working on the project as well. it makes total sense to me for q to have hired and trusted ppl to handle parts of quackity studios that he a. didn’t have time for b. didn’t have the experience to make the best decisions for or c. that he just didn’t want to do. at the end of the day q is a content creator and yes that means he also is a businessman and yes he owns quackity studios but he’s also shown himself to be INCREDIBLY busy and things like managing finances, vetting, hiring, and paying out employees takes a lot of time and can go super wrong if he didn’t have the knowledge or experience regarding how to do such things. he’s also shown himself to be pretty hands off with a lot of the server administration stuff, afaik he still isn’t op’d on his own server which makes sense bc he does have a team running things behind the scenes. i worked administration in a small office a while back and we had plenty of miscommunication issues bc my boss didn’t handle every part of his business. he didn’t even know how much i was being paid bc he had hired someone else to do the onboarding, offboarding, and payment for employees. even tho our team consisted of like 13 ppl at any given time, there were still miscommunications. and we were all seeing each other in person! we weren’t even dealing with differing time zones or different languages.
at the end of the day, q is young and inexperienced. he trusted the wrong ppl to handle parts of his business. all we can hope for is that things change for the better, the whole quackity studios team gets paid fair wages, have stress loads taken off of them, and feel safe and comfortable continuing with the project. i rlly hope pommes admin comes back bc the qsmp wouldn’t be the same without her even if another admin took the place of pommes character. idk if lea would want to come back but i feel like the door should be open for her too and she still deserves compensation for the work she did in her time working on the team. i have high hopes that things will get taken care of and some restructuring happens within the company

so the mystery mcc game, judging by previous mcc posts, looks like it may be a returning game. the more obvious answers are "bingo but fast rework" or "parkour warrior rework" (and of those two i want bingo but fast because it's hilarious to watch all the streamers not know how crafting recipes work and i don't want parkour warrior because i don't like watching people do parkour). however looking at the image i had a single thought:
what if it's skyblockle. would that be funny or what.
so like, it's not going to be skyblockle. but if it IS. let it be known i called it,

My favourite thing about being a young adult is having Mundane Adult Experiences for the first time. Like for example, a few months ago we bought a new dishwasher and I was genuinely impressed by the performance and some of the practical features. Or sending an invoice to a company's accounting department for my first freelance contract. Is this what small children feel like when they see a movie in the theater or a giraffe at the zoo for the first time? Surely the joy is on par with getting a sick discount on the big bottle of laundry detergent.
Anyways I'm buying a new mattress with my tax return and I'm so fucking hype, I'm gonna pick up some budget-friendly boxed wine tonight to celebrate
