Age of Imprisonment: Complete

Hey, so I forgot to mention: on December 31, 2025, after about 73 hours of gameplay spread out over eight-ish weeks, I completed 100% of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment.

That's right, 100%. That includes every single side quest, and even the bonus battles Nintendo gave us all as a Christmas present. Which I know is a little different from my usual M.O., which is to just finish the main story portion of a game, but I loved this game so much that I just had to keep going. Plus, it helped that the main gameplay mechanic is basically just overpowered hack-and-slash, which is my favorite kind of gameplay (puzzles are great, but sometimes they make my head hurt). Dare I say that this might have been my new ichiban (number one) favorite video game of all time?

Can't wait for more Zelda! Nintendo, isoge (hurry up)!

Happy New Year 2026!

Akemashite Omedetou (Happy New Year)!

Man, 2025 was something, wasn't it? Hold My Beer premiered to a sold-out crowd, Autism Empowerment's Neurodivergent Creators Collective was born, I was officially diagnosed as being on the autism spectrum, I made my official acting debut, I started teaching guitar lessons at my neighborhood School of Rock, and much more.

Looking forward to 2026!
