Live Baroness - The Sweetest Curse/Tower Falls

 

Starting the day off with some old school Baroness. Thanks for the prompt, Mr. Brown! 

Was super excited to find live footage of this one with Gina. Thanks to Feet First Productions for posting this. I'd urge everyone to check out their channel HERE. Tons of great live footage.




Watch:

In a bizarre turn of events, I'm off today for "Good Friday." Ah, okay? Not complaining - I'll take the day and recharge. Currently sitting outside with the cats, but I'm going to head inside in a little bit, get baked and watch a few movies to charge up for what I hope will be an epic editing session later today. Black Gloves & Broken Hearts will be finished this weekend, so I can send it to my favorite beta reader!

First up:


After that, not sure where I'll go. But wherever I do, I'm certain it will be a place both wonderful and strange!




Play:

I've seen the trailer for David Sandberg's upcoming adaptation of the game Until Dawn a few times now, and although I'll need to see it for The Horror Vision, I'm just not looking forward to it. Then I had the idea that, maybe if I played the game, it might help. 

Understand that, while I bought a Switch a few years back, it's the first gaming system I've owned since the original Nintendo, so I've missed nearly 40 years of gaming history.

The problem here is that Until Dawn is a PlayStation game. I looked into buying a used one, because there are a handful of other games I might like to play on the system. After briefly watching snippets of a play-through video, I was reminded of how much I dislike the Uncanny Valley look of many of these kinds of games. It's just not for me; I'm a  Metroidvania/2D survival Horror kind of guy, and I really don't want to buy another video game system at this time. So I nixed the entire idea, but this got me thinking: What other Horror games are available for Switch? 

I started HERE and now I'm second guessing my Uncanny Valley prejudice, because I'm not sure I can pass this up:


Maybe my aversion to this graphic style will abait after more exposure? Whataever the case, this is currently $7.99 on the Nintendo online store, and I'm thinking about grabbing it.
