Hello! Obviously, I don't really post on any forums that much anymore. I occasionally lurk but that's about it. I just had a recent life change happen that explains a lot in my life that I've struggled with and couldn't understand why. To back track, I went on mental health leave from my job in December. I was unraveling fast mentally and couldn't be there anymore. I started doing Instacart full time while I was on leave and that's become my primary source of income now. I formally left my job in February. Anyway, during all that I started seeing a therapist to and get an actual diagnosis outside of I'm just depressed/anxious. After a lot of talking and testing, I've been diagnosed with autism. It's obviously of the high functioning variety, but it greatly impacts my social skills, communication and being self righteous about my ways being right. Who knows, maybe if I had this diagnosis much earlier in life I wouldn't have made as many social mistakes and been such an asshole at times. Sometimes I couldn't even understand why I did the things I did, but turns out I'm literally autistic. ????? It's been fascinating thinking back on my life with this new perspective and trying to figure out what moments my autism actually played a role in. Anyway, don't expect me to be around a lot more suddenly, I just thought I'd share this update as I'm more than positive this newly learned about trait of mine impacted my behavior online in many ways, starting with people here. That doesn't forgive my actions and behaviors, but maybe gives new insight to them instead. Ok that's all!

"I'm tired of talking about this!* *makes a video about it* Gotta get dat youtube money I suppose Edit: You know, the more I hear the people on the side of 'No! Leave it as it is!' cry about artistic vision or whatever, the more I get the impression that they feel like adding an Easy Mode will, for some reason, erase the original difficulty mode... which isn't what anyone is suggesting. I'm going to turn this on it's head now, if you feel that the Easy Mode of a game breaks the artistic vision of the game... well, you don't have to play that difficulty.

Whatup. I missed everyone that doesn't like the way the other forum runs so I made this one. Rest of y'all should make some fresh meat topics to reintroduce yourselves, especially those that have been away a while. I love you all. What's new with me in the last little while? Got married to Jovanna. She's awesome. A hell of a lot more relaxed than my ex and also a professional event planner (going on vacations with her is fucking awesome). I visited Europe on the honeymoon. Got to meet a bunch of the Londish there. Basically one of my lifelong dreams (not being sarcastic) along with you know, actually seeing Europe. I just had a babbo. Her name is Luna. We somewhat named her after Luna Lovegood but I also got her a stuffed Luna cat from Sailor Moon. It's awesome and she's awesome. I'm on leave for 4 months from work. Going back May 20th. Seems like I'd have a lot of free time but I do not. If the baby is awake, she requires constant attention. So yeah hi.

At least Morbius being more heroic makes some kinda sense as he isn't really a villain in the comics. Kraven is a cold heartless killer with an adrenaline addiction. Nothing about that says "heroic"

Or maybe I fixed it?

This is probably my most wanted game right now... feels like the first huge improvement in gameplay and physics interactions in gaming since HL2 probably. Can't wait for June!

I think she's great personality. Why don't you like her? I think this movie is pretty much a Mulligan with the added bonus of keeping the good casting (like Viola Davis as Waller fuck yeah).

I thought long about giving myself a new name on these boards but I couldn't think of shit. It feels too foreign to go by a different name, even though this one is probably way outdated and too nerdy for a grown adult with children to be using. Oh well. Hi, I'm Xylus. I really like basketball and Nintendo. I have a spicy wife and cool little boy named Milo who makes life worth living.

Being a chonk is alright. It kinda went everywhere so I'm just in general physically larger. I have shed the body of a Chinese girl and am now mostly a man. Sadly all my good clothes don't fit and now I wear the newer fatter variety and only have like 2-3 pairs of everything that I refer to as my fat pants/shirts. I swear I'm like 3 times stronger too. Currently writing for Bonus Stage but one of the guys that works under Dan Stapleton recently informed be that Bonus Stage is a reputation gamble due to shady dealings in the past. Then both he and Jason Coles of EuroGamer both referred me to the guy setting me up. I still have two review obligations to Bonus Stage before I'm done with them but here's what I've done recently: https://www.bonusstage.co.uk/author/glen-nilsson/ Last 2 reviews are Shadow of Adam and crap.. Either Killer7 or Killer is Dead. One of them recently re-released on Steam in HD. Can't remember which lol As for my Zelda 2 remake (slyly titled AZ2R) is there like.. A sub-forum for gaming or whatever? I'll need to jump on my PC to do that. Essentially done 4/5s of Western Hyrule and mapped all dungeons on paper. It's actually transitioning well. It will be a long and ongoing process and I won't release or teaser demo anything til it's complete anywhere but here to keep it unknown before the full version is launched so as to avoid DMCA prior to release but it'll be as true as possible to the original only changing it to a top down action adventure. Sadly no more jump thrust or downward stab but there will be a few substitutions and advanced implementations of new items to make the game more consistent with the series but also more.. Ahh.. Traversable? You know, varied in terrain with more usable items, puzzles, etc. Less primitive. Other two games are my long revised and retconned jrpg and an action adventure survival horror, the latter being based in the Russian tundra in an old derelict missile silo with a dig site at the base ? As for my dumb heart I apparently have a slow heart, arrhythmia, had tier 1 and 2 heart blocks but the tier 2 one is gone. Basically I am encouraged to be a sloth so I'm cool with that. Almost worse than that, I have had pleurisy for over a year and am still on the ass end of that. After it hurting when I breath for so long I convinced myself I was dying but apparently I'm fine but I can't be medicated for it and just need to wait a billion years for it to go away lol
