I recently ranked the “Elden Ring” (base game) areas based on their content, fun, aesthetic and replayability, and now I’ll do exactly the same thing for the ginormous DLC. I’ve played through the “Shadow of the Erdtree” DLC twice now, and both times I was blown away by the world design and the beauty ofContinue reading “Shadow Of The Erdtree (Elden Ring DLC) Areas Ranked”

About Me: Video Games
I’m hopping on a recent trend for this one – I’ve seen some people fill out an “About Me” grid for their favourite videogames, talking about the best soundtrack, favourite protagonist, most underrated game etc. I want to give these twenty questions a go (based on my personal tastes, of course), but I’ve given myselfContinue reading “About Me: Video Games”
Top 10 Albums of the 2000’s
I’ve recently been going through every year in music for my thorough retrospectives, and as such I’ve been exposed to some fantastic albums. I wanted to talk about some of my favourites – this time looking at the 2000’s.

“Ants From Up There” Songs Ranked
My god, “Ants From Up There” is one of the best albums ever. I finally listened to it while going through 2022‘s high-rated music and I immediately fell in love. To put it into context, I was going to briefly listen to each track again for the purpose of this list (just to finalize theContinue reading ““Ants From Up There” Songs Ranked”

Out of sheer boredom, I decided to replay “Elden Ring” for the third time.

I was most impressed during my replay with how well each area holds up. I wantContinue reading “Every “Elden Ring” Area Ranked”
Every “Les Misérables” Song Ranked
Out of sheer curiosity, I decided to revisit one of my favourite musicals. I’ve seen “Les Misérables” live in the West End as a kid, but a few weeks ago I watched the 10th anniversary “Dream Cast” version … and mon dieu. I forgot how incredible this musical was. I want to rank all ofContinue reading “Every “Les Misérables” Song Ranked”
2024: The Year In Music
2024 – Donald Trump wins the US presidential election (somehow), defeating Kamala Harris to earn his second term. Before that, he is convicted of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, becoming the first former US president to be convicted of a crime. Trump also survives an assassination attempt – he had quite a turbulentContinue reading “2024: The Year In Music”

“Mistborn” is my favourite book series of all time.
