No idea what that is, but it's halfcoordinated, who did my fave run at AGDQ, so I will definitely be watching.

Momodora IV is a 2D sidescrolling action game, basically like a Dark Souls inspired metroidvania, pretty good

It's pretty fukken good but rather short. It's probably on sale, actually.

Forty minutes is definitely a "actual" run and not just zipping past everything with a glitch, so you'll get to see a very pretty Metroidvania played through.

It's like the term for sitcom based anime in that nothing happens overall plot wise(usually) but is made for like 'oh the characters are in this wacky situation! Jokes!'

The only good slice of life anim is nichijou because it has the budget of an OVA(movie length anime) for like each episode and is really over the top and ridiculous

You described a comedy, a slice of life isn't typically wacky or over the top but more like a slow-paced feel-good fun show

I haven't played bastion in a long time, is it possible in any casual playthrough to only have one option for the ending?

Eh, that seems to be the gist of the few slice of lifes I've seen but there are probably more better ones than what I've watched. I will say them being the 'sitcoms'of anime is a pretty good descriptor though

I had a beer once with Stephen Miller and now I like him.

I also tried to ban someone from a Discord for pointing out what an unrelenting shithead I am! I'm even dumb enough to think it worked!
So far the appetizers have used up about 10 pigs worth of ribs.

They're not benefiting a cancer charity. But I remember a few cancer stories always slip through.

Well, that's largely because this isn't a marathon to raise money for cancer research, that's during AGDQ. SGDQ is for Doctors Without Borders, so I doubt there's many cancer stories sent in to be told.

didn't you hear all the donations at AGDQ saying they were donating to cure cancer? They did it! It's cured, and all it took was nerds playing videogames for a week.
