I don’t trust word of mouth. I don’t trust canons. I don’t trust marketing. And frankly, I don’t trust the so-called “gamers” who repeat the same tired narratives.
Instead, I dive deep—into the bowels of app stores, into archive.org, anywhere I can find games no one else has played or talked about. Then I judge for myself whether they’re worth a damn.
That’s how I’ve uncovered hidden gems, and why I know most of what passes for “good taste” is just groupthink dressed up as expertise.
The only people with real taste? The ones willing to seek things out and form their own opinions. Everything else is just noise. -

Everything else is just noise.@atomicpoet if you don't think that people should pay any attention to things other people have to say about games, why do you bother to write and post about the games you play?

@bencurthoys I write for myself, not other people.
In fact, I never expect anyone to give a damn about anything I write.
And why should you? I’m just a guy on the Internet with an opinion. Sometimes I’m right, sometimes I’m wrong.
