Video Update: May 23rd, 2020

Hey everybody,

So my last video concluded with a teaser for the next big project. What I've been exploring for the last few weeks though, is if there was something I wanted to do in-between. Smaller subjects, another franchise, or a welcome ...

What's your favorite console and why?

Raycevick's Recommendations: Lara Croft GO OST by Pixel Audio

Am I talking about this soundtrack because I recently 100% this game? Yes, in part. I am of course talking about it in larger part to its quality. While preferring isolation and silence while writing or editing, I do sometimes need a soun...

Randomly Mine: The Best Games I Didn't Enjoy

The reason for not currently making a video out of this subject is mostly because the topic doesn't really build up to a greater point like before. So, all someone would get out of it is "this man doesn't like something I do" which isn't too inter...

If you would have a remaster/remake "remastered" which would it be?

Honestly, MGS: Twin Snakes might be a real contender, because the real letdown of that game is its cutscenes and presentation rather...

Raycevick's Recommendations: Crank

I seem to have an affection for movies with characters that very rarely show any, and if there's a lack of anything in Crank, aside from physics, it's affection. These characters are completely despicable. Vile, perverted, questionable at best peo...

Remnant: From the Ashes is a very good game. I'm always arguing in-favor of middle market games, and the success of Remnant's a shining example of its potential. Gameplay's tight with fun to fire weapons, atmospheric levels, and an addicting progr...

I've heard people describe many games from many genres as "comfortable" over the years: Minecraft, Stardew Valley, Halo, DOOM, and many others. What makes a game "comfortable"?

Raycevick's Recommendations: For Crying Out Loud by Kasabian

It's said you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, yet that's what I did for Kasabian's latest record. Looking like the VHS cover of a College Short, this image didn't leave any expectations, and it certainly doesn't sync up to the album's opening...

Raycevick's Recommendations: Synthetik

When you cover multiple games in one video (such as the Ghost In The Shell video), what's that writing process like? Do you play in release order?

While I'm a Racing Fan, I hadn't willed myself into an Endurance Race for Years; not since I was a Child who consumed Gran Turismo almost exclusively. It's not that I'm opposed to long gaming sessions (I did play 6000+ matches of Halo 2) it simply...

Raycevick's Recommendations: Love Writes Itself by Dralms
