@karlaslibrary_ I can't multitask with an audiobook; I lose what they were talking about. So, if I'm going to just sit there zoning out listening, I might as well just read the physical book instead.
I'm alive again! It's my birthday and it's also new specimen day for Species: Unknown. Let's goooo
Catch my live in my profile.

Sums up my thoughts nicely. Nothing wrong with this being made, or if you liked it; just crazy how critics are falling over themselves to crown it a masterpiece.
To outsiders who don't pay much attention to the sheer fucking absurdity that is 2026 games journalism™, it might seem like people are overreacting to the Mixtape situation. Listen, I COMPLETELY understand if you feel that way.
But no, listen carefully. We've been saying for YEARS that game journalists are posers who despise this hobby. Mixtape is absolute proof of that.
This is a billionaire nepo project that is 3 hours long and that you don't even really "play." It was immediately astroturfed to fuck and back, called "one of the games of the generation," couldn't even bother to add a fail state or something known as "gameplay systems," includes the most quirk-ass possible millennial-hipster writing and teenagers tonguing, all presented alongside the lie that it's an "indie project."
There has never been a more direct example of everything wrong with games journalism, and that's saying a lot because they gave Veilguard a 9 out of 10 while games like Black Myth Wukong and Crimson Desert are 6's & 7's. "Mixtape" is being hailed as a masterpiece and given 10's across the board while its billionaire publisher lines their pockets with cute lootboxes filled with custom gadgets and CD players.
There is one reason, and one reason alone that they like it... and that's because it didn't "waste their time" by making them do something they loathe: playing a video game.
These indie devs are making a first-person horror fishing game set in a flooded world.
- Skill-based fishing
- Upgrade your boat & craft survival gear
- Fight mutated creatures
It's called DREADMOOR. Would you play this?
Going live with some Species: Unknown tonight! We got the containment cell, so we can do capture missions now. Let's see how it goes!
