How to get some No, I'm Not a Human achievements

Update: earlier today I finally gotten the last two achievements. I officially gotten every achievement in No, I'm Not a Human.

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I know I'm already talking more about No, I'm Not a Human. Don't worry this also going to be quite interesting. There's a couple achievements you either don't realize you can go for or a lot of factors makes going for them quite frustrating. I already shared my thoughts on all eleven endings.

Although a good amount of these following strategies can also help you get em. Memorization is critical if you want every achievement in this horror game. Also knowing when to make saves plays a major role. I just hope for the more frustrating achievements. Any of my advices helps you out somewhat. It sure was very frustrating to kept reloading my saves for the last couple achievements.

Yes I'll be covering a lot of achievements. I don't see the point fully covering them all. There's a lot of easy achievements to get. Some you might get without realizing it as well. I just hope any of my tricks helps someone. You could be in for one rather frustrating experience. Possibly an insanity test at it's worst!!!

More unexpected achievements

WHATS THAT SMELL?!

You need to invite the crazy fat guy who sorta reminds me of comedian Jack Black. Hope if there's any Visitors in the house doesn't kill him. There's also a chance he could be one himself. Which would remove the previous concern. You start talking to him until beer shows up in the dialogue. Agreed to give him one for the achievement.

No, I'm not a Visitor

This is very straight forward as the game goes on. More signs to help spot Visitors becomes available. Some people doesn't know these also apply to you for a particular achievement. It doesn't matter any person you invited in are in the bath room or not. You simply access your bath room sink. Choose any of the signs to look for to get the achievement.

What THE HELL Was That?!

Easily one of the easiest achievements to miss in the entire game. The real kicker is this occurs looking out a particular window. Usually among the last few nights. You should see some FEMA members talking to each other. Very quickly you'll see a large monstrous figure move in the background. Thankfully this also plays into Over the Garden Wall achievement as well.

Frenemy

This is a bizarre but fitting achievement. A lot of people you could invite into your house. There's 50/50 chance they could be Visitors in the runs. It's a rather straight forward kill achievement. It doesn't matter which character as long it isn't set species characters. Across two playthroughs kill the same character. The achievement will unlock among killing em again as any species left.

You Weren't Supposed to Hear That

This is one of a couple achievements that surprised me. An handful of phone numbers are set being the same. Majority of them will randomize in every run. You can call as soon as you reach the first day 000-451 on the phone for the achievement. This is even before their number starts showing up on TV. It reminded me of a particular SpaceBalls scene honestly.

Your Fluffy Master

You must let the Cat Lady whose always a Visitor in. Which also plays into a particular ending. From that point on, you have a few methods to getting canned cat food. Either you order it from the phone or a few people you attempt not letting in. They could attempt to bribe you with food for the cat. Regardless, you reach the following day to give the food to the cat for the achievement.

I also should point out this could give you Harsh Compromise achievement as well.

Hot Potato

This sorta plays into the achievement I just talked about. Some people you attempt refusing entry could bribe it with FEMA Notice papers. By default, two particular people will give you that paper. But you gotta let the burned fireman in. Assuming the previous owner still in the house. During the following day give it back to them.

Depending on which nights FEMA comes by. They automatically get selected to go with FEMA. Personally I did laugh a little bit. You could give it right back knowing what could follow might not be great for em. I was quite surprised that was actually possible to do in the game. I consider this easy to miss achievement since it doesn't seem obvious to some people.

Pest Control

This was a feature in an older version of the game. More recently this feature gotten added back in. Currently among the easiest achievements in the entire game. As soon as you can open the fridge. You click to kill an cockroach done. Honestly, it was a rather unexpected surprise. Unless you look up the update you might not even know that's an achievement.

A House with History

Here's another achievement I didn't expect to be in the game. In some of the rooms you click on particular stuff. You kept doing this until you click the last one for the achievement. I do like this reveals a little more back story to who you're playing as. There's a huge chance a lot of people didn't even know you could do this.

Bring me a dream

Not to be confused with Walk A Mile in Their Shoes achievement. First you'll need the same old man required for Mushroom Ending to show up. Among accepting the pages the following morning. Head beneath then go to the left to find a huge mushroom. Simply eat the mushroom before ending the day. Before you resume during the night you should get a far out there dream sequence.

Possibly rage quitting achievements

Watch and learn

Fog-in-the-box

A Very Sad Poem

Wait...

Event Horizon

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY

Bullet Dodger

Event Horizon

Happier Days

The Wolflord

Undulations of Capricorn

The Whisperer in Darkness

Rise up and walk

Martyr

Phone Book

Yes some of these are much easier. But the reason I still listed them here. There's a lot of factors that could prevent the harder ones. A lot of characters will always show up in most runs. Thankfully an handful of these achievements involves em to a degree. The shorter ones you'll more likely unlock in comparison.

A great example of an easier achievement being Fog-in-the-box achievement. You must invite the Stoner guy in. Quickly you can go talk to him the following morning to light up. The amount of days differs between these achievements. If that wasn't bad enough there's a few recurring situations. Like hoping FEMA doesn't take em away or they get killed by Visitors.

You also gotta hope the usual dream sequence doesn't occurring any of these. You will be effectively screwed from getting em. Especially when it follows a save then you left your session. You go into night to be trapped having to do the dream sequence. Although on a few occasions, this actually could help you out.

You also don't want to get them too close by the cultists. In particular, characters among inviting in that sits in the same room will be forced out. You can not refuse the cultists entry into the house. It also doesn't help some of the required characters appears in later days like Best Son guy. Suddenly I gotta talk about this game's rng in characters showing up.

Most of the nights will have set characters guarantee to show up at your front door. Some nights differ how many of them could be randomize. This is rather critical information for the last couple achievements I gotten. Among ordering stuff the Delivery Guy temporary acts as a set character. You also need to learn how to properly determine when to save.

Thankfully there's a few save methods. The limited method involves a particular jar drink. Yes you can get more of that a few ways. Either by ordering it just once per a run or among trying to send some people away. They could bribe you with that drink. It's possible to have three of the same drinks during an run.

Other recurring obstacles involves guy with a rifle as well as the Mascot Visitor himself. I quickly mastered how to prevent getting Revenge Ending involving guy with a rifle recently. It's a little trickier with the Mascot Visitor in some of his later visits. You actually could get that ending among selecting you're not alone.

Believe it or not, this happened several times to me. Basically trying to avoid two endings while achievement hunting can be a real bitch!!! Going back to FEMA, they start by removing one person from the house unless you're alone. Most visits, they will take two people from the house. You can get two FEMA Notice papers during a run.

Sometimes attempting to send someone away could bribe you with another FEMA Notice paper. My best advice is majority of getting most of the characters is around nights 8 and 9 respectively. I am still not done because of a particular frustrating achievement called Phone Book. Here's the good news, some of the numbers are easy to get.

The first number comes from your neighbor guarantee. Simply watch TV as well as listen to the radio for more numbers. It is critical as soon as most phone numbers are revealed. You make sure you call em to count towards getting the achievement. You'll also need a lot of characters to invite inside. Virtually everything I said previously applies to this.

1. Angry Guy

2. Best Son

3. Deadbeat Mom (comes into the house with a kid)

4. FEMA Wife

5. Wireface (an foreign guy with a stitched up mouth)

6. Little Girl (neighbor's daugher)

7. Fortune Teller

8. The Sisters (number comes from the healthier twin)

For those that played the game might've noticed Fortune Teller actually double in the same process. For everyone else, it's just one critical thing you'll need. Guy in a Wheel Chair also needs get his hands checked for an achievement. You might have a bigger issue with Visitors in your house than anything else.

Some of these characters are more likely going to be taken by FEMA. This by itself makes it very frustrating to keep on trying again. Very few Visitors wouldn't kill anyone. I do recommend if you could find a good source use it. All of this made finishing the achievement hunt quite satisfying. Majority of these are luck at best.

If they show up to hope none of the bad situations takes em out in some way. You have more lucky rolling Yahtzee I'm not kidding. Also try to memorize what all of them looks like. Very few of these achievements will require particular options selected. Which means if you chosen the wrong choices you sadly don't get anything.

This applies to the teacher for Martyr achievement. Unfortunately we're causing an suicide to happen. I'm just very surprised the game fully shows this!!! You should be very used to constantly restarting your saves or doing new games altogether. Both will be quite common for this process. Look up how many days you'll need any of them around for.

The Cat Lady has a situation you must select the right dialogue to trigger. She dodges some of your shotgun shots. Inevitably she'll die from the last shot for the achievement. This has to be among the weirdest sequences in the entire game!!! It kinda reminded me of The Unknown in Dead by Daylight I'm not kidding it's that freaky!!!

If you get some of them too late into a run you already failed!!! The teacher loves to show up around there. Ideally as frustrating it's going to be. You want her to actually show up on Night 8. Three or four set characters if you're expecting an delivery. It'll end with a final randomized character. This means every failed attempt you must talk to the same three to four characters.

Before finding out characters like her shows up or not is quite frustrating!!! I hope I didn't over complex anything. I really tried to break it down but in a more simplify way. Thankfully there is no time limit to force you to finish the game. There is a day limit being Day 14. Little to nothing could happen except an handful of endings there.

Going for all of these achievements is largely trial and error. You gotta hope your strategies keeps whoever you'll need in the house. Also hope they don't die during the process. It's a bit stressful of a process I won't sugar coat that. This is exactly why among getting the last achievement I was so happy. One last tip is some people won't enter the house unless you remove particular people from there.

Effectively kicking them out that thankfully doesn't involve majority of people in these achievements. Very few of them are at risk for that. You also could refuse kicking those characters out while sending someone else away. There's surprisingly a lot more strategies involved with this. The best of luck to those crazy enough to fully achievement hunt this game!!!

My thoughts on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 ban from The Indie Game Awards situation

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, for a good while I kept seeing posts as well as videos. All focus on the recent controversy of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 ban from The Indie Game Awards 2025. The fact people still needing to say something on the matter. I figured to fully give my thoughts on that situation. I mostly going to be quite ugly about this.

They fully live streamed their game awards show. Suddenly, they came out with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 gotten disqualify as well as banned from their show. Effectively giving the awards it's suppose to win to other indie video games. No disrespect towards Blue Prince, I do wanna play that myself. They have a key rule about don't use AI in video games.

A couple months ago, it was confirmed several hundred video games during a particular Steam sale used AI. Not only that, the game in question already removed textures originally placed by AI. It was a rather small usage of the concept. It would've been different if Expedition 33 was largely made with AI. Honestly, this easily could've been settle in private.

Even before they do the game awards show. This includes making an announcement the game can't be nominated with reasons revealed. In a post on their social media accounts prior to that. They also could've had the company responsible for the game to make the same announcement. As far I'm aware neither happened prior to that show.

Instead they planned this attack on the game. Purely out of being sick & jealous of the game. In other words they actually chosen a very ugly way showcasing that to the public. It also doesn't help some of their awards possibly came off racism possibly sexist. I will list those following awards to make a point. Those didn't even need to be in the game awards show at all.

1. African Indie Game Award

2. ANZ Indie Game Award

3. Black Voices in Gaming Award

4. Latin American Indie Game Award

5. Southeast Asian Indie Game Award

6. Women-Led Indie Game Award

This game effectively swept a few game awards shows. This might come as a huge surprise to a lot of people. I don't consider Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 to be overrated. For something to be overrated, it has to not be as great as people say coughs Naruto. Expedition 33 and Stranger Things show were shows that surprisingly lived up to that insanely high expectations.

I don't even like how The Indie Game Awards goes about it's process. We barely have any real say except possibly throw out some indie games to nominate that's it. Which is technically more than a lot of those shows. I strongly felt the overall best game awards show wise. Hands down was The Horror Game Awards.

I even told them it was the best game awards show I watched all year long you bet it was!!! I recommend watching the later edited version of that it's way better. I don't care what sex or race people make games are. I felt someone from one side of the world could deliver a truly unique perceptive. On the opposite side of the world very true within indie games.

I strongly felt they done this on purpose. Partly due to being more focus on indie video games. Not as close as many people tuning in to the bigger game awards shows. It's almost like they chosen to go a more drama route to keep people talking about their awards show. To me, that was a rather sad, pathetic way of getting people's attention.

It isn't a cry of desperation either. They obviously didn't want to follow suit a few ways. Let's be honest, Expedition 33 isn't even in many categories compared to those other awards shows. The fact they directly attacked a game like this is a clear sign of being poor sportsmen. They should've just supported the game.

I'm not saying bend over either. What I'm trying to say is they clearly decided to go such an route for all the wrong reasons. I never seen such ugliness in any awards shows prior. I'm more willing to see some questionable nominees that's common in these shows. What just happened was virtually their version of Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars not sorry!!!

Such an situation speaks volumes that indirectly impacts the entire indie gaming community. I'm very sure a lot of those developers are very kind people. The very last thing they need is something like this!!! Expedition 33 even apologized over it's AI ban on social media. Although it wasn't necessary to do since they didn't do anything wrong here.

It's like being on trial you just gotten found guilty for a crime you didn't commit. But eventually get forced to confess with hopes getting out of prison soon. I know I chosen a rather ugly reality for an example. This isn't even about which group you are in high school either thing. Personally I wouldn't even care which one you were in anyway.

The Indie Game Awards just shown their true colors. I refuse to support this game awards show. I will continue to support indie developers that's not going to change. This sorta came off like the spoiled brat that can't accept something. In this case they were that brat to refused accepting Expedition 33 belong in their awards show.

Officially another option which also would've upset people. Just not to this degree would've been don't nominate Expedition 33 altogether. It would've avoided getting banned altogether. Plus they could've eventually get in with another game. It wouldn't even matter if it were a sequel, a spin off or another game unrelated.

Even Steam Awards that doesn't do shows is better. Majority of it's process is the gamers themselves. I may criticize Megabonk being in a particular category. Although, I did start to see how it could have that effect on some people. The Indie Game Awards is quickly losing creditability. Expedition 33 didn't deserve such a treatment.

We don't even know they secretly wanted Blue Prince to win or simply not give the award to Expedition 33. Regardless which one that turns out to be? Things aren't looking great for them right now. I'm sure they had enough staff to prevent such an situation from happening. I highly doubt the person in charge went against everyone for attention.

Just imagine for a moment that was the reason. This game awards show further lost creditability. People already not taking these shows as nearly seriously anymore. Once in a blue moon I'm looking at you Nintendo!!! You get some games that wins people don't like. I mean come on Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds should've won Best Sports/Racing Game award!!!

This would be the usual drama of these shows. What just happened here was very unexpected in comparison. The entire situation made them look like crap. I seen crap that looks way better. Now that by itself speaks volumes how disappointed I am. End of the day, I'm quite sick hearing about this. Unfortunately what's done can't be undone.

Expedition 33 wasn't robbed no the game was used as a ugly message to everyone. This game has insane success that no body saw coming. Very quickly became one of many greatest video games ever created. I strongly felt they chosen to do this. Deep down they didn't wanna bend to everyone else. They wanted to be this rather negative fuse box that's about to explode.

I could get somewhat behind they didn't want to give Game of the Year award to them. At the same time, Expedition 33 was essentially the best among that lineup banned or not!!! Removing such a game bags many questions. A huge one I personally have is if Expedition 33 gotten treated like this. What future indie video games could end up with the same fate?

Another huge question is how they plan on moving forward from the situation? I think they might need a more clear guide lines to some of those rules. Which easily could've led to this situation. Then again, they started last year not as long as The Horror Game Awards coughs better awards show. All of a sudden that situation making more sense.

They are in the early years of their awards show. They still need to figure some critical stuff out. Where it stands I personally dislike how they're going about things. I do agree there should be one for indie developers. Just within five years, I played some truly amazing indie games. Possibly better than so many games I played during my childhood!!!

Honestly, this situation going to have long term effects. They shouldn't never done this period. I wouldn't be surprise enough indie developers decided to not support the show over it. In all honestly, that's where my money going!!! The fact this actually happened is a huge slap to indie gaming as a whole.

I'm very sure a lot of them aren't happy how The Indie Game Awards handling things. Indie games should allow everyone despite things. Expedition 33 at the time of it's nomination removed AI from the game altogether. I personally didn't see how the game broken that rule. Even if it still was in the game, their usage of AI is too small to notably affect things.

I wonder if there's an Dr. Sheldon Cooper among em!!! I bet someone in the staff absolutely loves trains!!! Honestly, I am effectively done with this show altogether. It's going to take them doing a lot of stuff over years to possibly fix some of the damage. Then again, the damage already done!!! What more could they possibly do now?

Expedition 33 didn't deserve this by any means. I haven't even played the game myself. But I did moderate someone that absolutely loved it!!! I seen enough of the game to know it deserved majority of it's awards. The Indie Game Awards isn't really for everyone. They secretly are quite bias towards em. Even The Game Awards has a better overall process going about things than this!!!

This doesn't even compare to The Golden Joystick Awards either. This month is filled with those shows. I strongly felt it's easily the worst!!! They shouldn't done an show this year if they didn't wanna do it. At least doing this to Expedition 33 is exactly what it sounds like!!! Whoever is in charge needs to do a full 360 to keep things going or end it?

My thoughts on One Piece sagas prior to the Final Saga

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, the author confirmed the final arc starting next year. Literately not much to go on. I figured I should reveal my thoughts on all the previous sagas. Prior to the Final Saga for a rather in depth view on the franchise. I won't go over every little thing. Do you really wanna be possibly reading until you reach your sixties?

East Blue Saga

1. Romance Dawn Arc

2. Orange Town Arc

3. Syrup Village Arc

4. Baratie Arc

5. Arlong Park Arc

6. Loguetown Arc

Of course where every great stories we gotta start from the beginning. A young boy named Monkey D. Luffy sets out to become a pirate. Majority of the First Saga is getting most members of his crew. All of these events took place in East Blue. The actual globe design of One Piece takes some time getting use to.

You can tell Luffy already making a difference in the world. We're in the beginner portions of a pirate crew's journey. You also will notice many things will get surprising references as the story goes on. East Bue Sagas as a whole is a great beginning point for such a long manga series. Still difficult to believe the author originally planned this to be done in five years.

A large amount of this was readapted through the live action show with some clever changes. This is among the shortest arcs despite every saga having huge amount of chapters. More than you would expect from other Shonen manga franchises. Yes this saga instantly became timeless. You already know there's something amazing about such a story.

Alabasta Saga

1. Reverse Mountain Arc

2. Whisky Peak Arc

3. Little Garden Arc

4. Drum Island Arc

5. Alabasta Arc

I felt this was the beginning of a particular ongoing theme. Luffy's crew ends up taking on an bounty hunter organization. This is also where there's much more going on than it appears to be. Originally started that also became an ongoing theme within the series. Luffy's crew saved an country from a tyrant.

The entire saga possibly shaped the franchise. Everything about it led to the story continuing to go much deeper. We are talking an war with surprising depth to the story. Somehow it works amazingly well despite things. We also get to see many things more clearly as well. The crew made it into the Grand Line.

Which has an unusual entrance method that easily could destroy ships. This isn't quite you congratulate from high school yet. You still have to complete the 8th grade. In other words, Luffy's crew still had so much to learn. The entire saga really stands the test of time. Honestly, a fantastic follow up saga. Plus more stuff from this saga later came up in the story is such a great sign.

Sky Island Saga

1. Jaya Arc

2. Skypiea Arc

One of the weirder sagas by far. We get to see the difference between bounties. Just not the way you originally imagine it. Some select stuff also came up later in the story. Which some having rather surprising connections to the greater overall theme. Ultimately, Luffy's crew found a way to reach an island that's in the sky.

Yes you heard me correctly in the sky!!! Which also could easily break ships. This is also the most we see of these islands in the series. Obviously, how things goes is vastly different from those beneath their island. Honestly, it was a rather unique concept to go for. We knew they often explore finding more islands.

We never expected one of their next islands at that time going to be an sky one. This also continued what started with Alabasta Saga. Luffy's crew even changing things high up in the sky. Suddenly they were truly something else. I also felt some aspects really helped them in later portions of the story. They do go back to the sea following everything to continue going for their dreams.

Water 7 Saga

1. Long Ring Long Land Arc

2. Water 7 Arc

3. Enies Lobbies Arc

4. Post-Enies Lobby Arc

This is a rather huge deal to talk about. It does start a little smaller with another pirate crew. Everything else was quite amazing. Luffy's crew comes to Water 7 based on Italy. They even have a train that operates through the water. Unexpectedly mysterious stuff started to happened. Which led to the crew trying to save a few people from the World Government.

This even goes bigger with a large amount of the story taking place. At one of the three main government buildings. You could say all hell break loose there. This really gives you a good idea how the World Government actually operates. A rather chaotic situation with the crew gaining a few more members.

This also started another ongoing trend. We get to see what happened following such an event. You better get use to that quickly. This arc really opened up the possibilities for the series. By now you also noticing how well the author writes so many characters. The crew had many obstacles on the way. They effectively saved another location from tyranny.

Thriller Bark Saga

1. Thriller Bark Arc

One of two sagas to only have one arc. This is a rather unusual one in many ways. The actual following island so happened to be a gigantic pirate ship I'm not kidding. Which means trying to find it can be quite a struggle. The crew on that ship were more freakier than anything the crew faced before. It's a great one to read close to or on Halloween.

Some unexpected huge twists that heavily impacted the story. The crew had several unnatural factors yet came out on top. This felt heavily Michael Jackson's Thriller inspired he he!!! This arc led to things I really didn't see coming following it. The crew kept improving themselves in some way. Not only that, they always come out on top with their backs against the wall.

Some would even describe some of this particular arc. The author must've been on drugs lol. It's such an out there concept that somehow fits in. Way better than anyone could've possibly imagined!!! This is proof the author is a gifted writer. They get an unlikely new crew mate. Honestly, some of what had happened gets mirrored more recently in ways you can't expect!!!

Summit War Saga

1. Sabaody Archipelago Arc

2. Amazon Lily Arc

3. Impel Down Arc

4. Marineford Arc

5. Post-War Arc

This is a really huge deal to discuss here. The crew gets unexpectedly split up. Don't worry this eventually worked to their advantage. The reminder of the arc heavily focuses on their captain. He desperately tries to save his brother Ace from a public execution. He even goes inside another major World Government building.

You know one of the three main buildings of theirs? Some gigantic surprises right up to the end it's that great!!! The author proven he's the best with so many characters during a war. This had so many things going at it. He ended up making it a truly epic event. Everyone dropping everything to see this play out!!!

To me this is easily among the most essential sagas in the story. This alone further steps up the ending. In so many ways with possibly more connections getting confirmed on the way. What was one of Luffy's worst days led to his crew stepping up their game for the future. A sad ending with a surprisingly bright future ahead.

Fish-Man Island Saga

1. Return to Sabaody Arc

2. Fish-Man Island Arc

I know it's a little weird the crew goes back to a previous location. Their next actual destination so happened to be deep within the sea!!! Fish-Man Island suddenly in the exact opposite direction from Skypiea. In terms they had to figure a way to go so high in the sky. Now they gotta reach an island deep within the ocean with it's own obstacles.

I'm very glad this concept was in the actual story. We get to learn more about locations not from above or the usual islands. This eventually led to another kingdom getting saved. This also centered on racism to a degree. It was quite interesting they got to interact with fish people. Some aspects being similar to Arlong Park Arc with some connections to that.

This saga might not have the same impact as some of the previous sagas. What it does have though is the crew constantly changing things for the better. We get some deep lore with a few characters we didn't expect. Honestly, the author did a great job writing it. This also was right before we actually get to see what the crew could do since they were separated.

Dressrosa Saga

1. Punk Hazard Arc

2. Dressrosa Arc

This would be a spiritual successor to two sagas. Being Alabasta and Thriller Bark sagas respectively. Yes just like those the main antagonist was a former member of the Seven Warlords. Indirectly some of this connects to a character you don't expect. They reach an island that's half extreme heat with the other being extreme cold.

Yes how this happened does get explained. After stopping an incident that occurred there. They reach Dressrosa in a familiar situation. By now you already know they ended up saving another country. All of this plays into a later saga as well. The crew had some strange situations on those islands. Obviously I prefer Dressrosa Arc more for many reasons.

Both were vastly different arcs leading up to an inevitable confrontation. This also had some surprises in later sagas no body saw coming. Both of these incidents caused major changes to the world. Honestly, the range this author can write is truly impressive. We're getting such a story we could pass down for generations I'm not kidding.

Whole Cake Island Saga

1. Zou Arc

2. Whole Cake Island Arc

3. Levely Arc

The beginning portions focuses in between the present with flashbacks. The present following what happened while half the crew back in Dressrosa. Indirectly leading to a huge surprise with a particular character later on. This also further solidifies the inevitable confrontation. By this point, three emperors saw Luffy as a thorn to their sides.

A former emperor Big Mom gets into an unexpected war. Several assassination attempts failed triggering that. The odds was really against the crew this time. Somehow they ended up getting the last laugh. This also marked the crew was on the verge becoming a future emperor crew. We also got to see some strangely interesting locations.

Let's put it this way Willy Wonka has a factory lol. There's some surprising further back story to a particular character. Not only, we get a more clear idea how an emperor crew does things. For once, the main antagonist doesn't lose in the traditional way. But more of her reputation getting ruined following things.

Wano Country Saga

1. Wano Country Arc

This is a rather difficult saga to break down. I am going to give it my best try though. From Dressrosa Arc, we knew Luffy had unfinished business with another former emperor being Kaido. This also ends up bringing Big Mom into all this chaos!!! Now two emperors were working together. Luffy had to work in a huge alliance once again.

Half the crew reached Wano first. The remaining half with a new member later on reached the country. Of course, we go right into another huge war. Similar to Summit War Arc, emperors were involved. The author put a lot of years into this!!! We get very deep dives of everything!!! I do mean everything especially lore.

It's safe to say this further set up the ending for the story. This ended up being a massive mile stone for Luffy. Officially leaving the country as one of two new emperors. Effectively means he's one step away becoming the King of the Pirates. Wano works way better manga wise from it's anime counterpart. The pacing is no comparison way better in the manga version.

So many things directly tied together as well. A possible set up for a future member. Directly mirroring another famous character the saga heavily references. Keep in mind, this is before Egghead Arc. Wano Country Saga was a true master piece!!! Wano being based on Japan was done perfectly!!! This arc had plenty of surprises as well as twists.

Honestly, this is among the most essential sagas in the story by far. You already know a large amount of it will be connected in the later portions of the story. No one was expecting this much story!!! At the same time, those really into the story. Simply couldn't get enough of this because it's that damn great!!! You could make a great movie maybe two out of all this particular arc.

Conclusion

For a story almost written for three decades. One Piece is easily the most constant manga series. This story is mind blowing awesomeness!!! There's such deep lore with many surprises on the way. Plenty of characters to love as well as dislike. In every possible aspect the perfect Shonen manga series. You really get it all that's amazingly done incredibly well!!!

This story won't end for a long time despite being in it's final saga. Luffy's journey going to be among the greatest stories ever written!!! I easily could see some people treat the story as a new religion. I'm quite serious if you got about it the right way it works amazingly well. One Piece is a story that has something for someone.

The insane range of the author you just never know what's going to be in the story next? There's plenty of people with their own in depth theories about it's future. One Piece already the best overall selling comic series in the world!!! Honestly, a lot of people just don't know what they're missing out on. One Piece is essentially the greatest pirate story ever written period!!!

You get more than enough everything you just want more. You easily could just read this an entire year. You would be amaze how well that works!!! One Piece is something you can't copy neither recreate. I don't even think the author himself could do either. A true testament how great this story actually is!!! One Piece is going to have an ending so great the world can't believe it ends just like that!!!

A little over an year since Sega Genesis Classics delisted

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I apologize I finally getting around writing about this. Last December, Sega Genesis Classics delisted on every platform. Which ended up being one of many bad signs from Sega since then. Considering Sega Genesis was my first game console I ever played. A huge number of Genesis games included were in my child hood.

I should discuss how much this Sega compilation game meant to me. Of course, this isn't going to be easy to write. Sega Genesis is still among my favorite cartridge based game consoles. My favorite overall Sega game console for that matter with Sega Dreamcast being a close second. Depending on versions you either have fifty three in most versions or fifty eight games regarding the Steam version.

The Steam version made every Genesis game available in a bundle. But you also had the option to buy em separately like Capcom Arcade Stadium series on every platform. Personally a great solid lineup of Genesis games. Even better than Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection. This represented a huge variety of game genres.

Majority of these classic video games held up amazingly well. The sudden delisting of this Sega compilation game made a lot of Sega fans upset. I'll be brutally honest I hate the direction they're going in right now. They are moving away from the classics. They also favoring the usage of AI in video games. Which I felt is quite disrespectful to many classics they owned.

They just started to ruin Like a Dragon series with AI. All of a sudden delisting that collection leading to their downfall. Sega Genesis Classics is much more than it appears to be. For me, plenty of great memories. The overall emulation is very solid for this many video games. I would even dare to say the Greatest Sega Game I ever played!!!

Sonic 2 on Sega Genesis my all time favorite Sega game included. Sega selling out hard with Sonic which is 50/50 with me. Some of it I'm quite happy to see. Then there's questionable stuff like crossing over with Godzila? Yeah this happened as a event in Sonic Rumble. This represents an era Sega used to make great video games.

Also making a few decent game consoles. The delisting of that collections spills on all of that!!! Sega Genesis Classics always meant a great deal to me. Easily among the most replayable compilation games I ever played!!! The compilation goes from 1989 up to 1997. Which was essentially it's entire console run. Before console runs started to get quite long.

Sega Genesis Classics also represents exactly what people used to love about Sega. Sadly no longer the case with their recent changes. I'm happy more games off that console gets ported. Despite some of those being questionable decisions like Sword of Sodan in Beat 'Em Up Collection. I may announce this here along with Bandai Namco.

I am effectively going to no longer buy from both those game companies anymore. I am done with both of their aggressive, greedy tactics. This also means I'm no longer interested into buying Tekken 8. Especially what I heard about it's famous Season 2 situation. I know I'm getting a little off track here. Honestly Sega would have to do a lot to convince me to come back or I'm staying gone.

This collection has something for everyone. It may not quite gotten the golden standard for compilation games. It does come surprisingly close though in many ways. It's a truly fun collection of classic video games. It also represents an era filled with creativity. Good luck trying to find something like Comix Zone or Gunstar Heroes!!!

Seriously Gunstar Heroes is absolutely amazing video game!!! I already decided what my final Sega purchase going to be officially. Shinobi: Art of Vengeance with everything. After I bought that I'm done with Sega period!!! Shinobi 3 is another truly fantastic video game. I know some might view this being greatly blown out of proportions.

Personally what The Indie Game Awards done with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 virtually that at it's core. No this was a huge, unpleasant message from Sega. They no longer represent majority of their fan base. They want to go the cheaper, sell out routes. Rather than taking more time possibly little to no AI with more actual completed video games.

Sega became desperate as well as greedy for all the worst reasons. Honestly, it's quite upsetting they don't wanna represent the classics anymore. I felt they should've been more about those than anything else. Not to mention, bringing back some classic franchises suddenly doesn't make sense. Sega suddenly became like Nintendo something I never wanted to convince publicly.

Nintendo themselves isn't hiding how greedy they truly are with Switch 2. At this point, the only AAA company I respect is Capcom. I do wanna get more into indie gaming. I'm always keeping a close eye for compilation games. I still believe a lot of older video games better than a lot of newer video games. It's mind blowing the AAA game companies are incredibly dense about their situations.

Honestly, Sega is no longer the game company that's gotten me into gaming. It greatly pains me to say this is the beginning of my good bye to the company. The final good bye will be among buying that Shinobi game. Obviously I'm filled with a lot of emotions. I'm thankful I can still play Sega Genesis Classics across two platforms.

What truly sucks is Sega with their current route. Likely won't put this compilation game onto GOG. If they wanna start winning people back. Stuff like that would be greatly appreciated. Sega Genesis Classics represents so much what used to be great about so many things. I believe we're currently in the era reliving the 90s thing.

Essentially my child hood a bit weird I know. Honestly, it's a rather unforgettable act by Sega to delist that compilation game. I really wish Sega would actually listen to their fans about such matters. It's a massive disappointment everything they done since then. They gotten lucky with some Sonic stuff though.

Despite that, I think indie developers is the future of gaming. Retro compilation games is another possible route I'll quickly jump on. Especially getting introduce to platforms I never played before. I know this turned into another video game rant. Sonic is somehow keeping Sega around. It's painful that Sonic movies might be what's left I actually liked.

Those were great Sonic movies I deeply enjoyed. I really wish things was vastly different than it actually is. Sega clearly doesn't care about it's fans anymore. They even done that with Yakuza 3 was proof of that. Sega recently joined a long list of companies I won't buy from. But officially it'll be on that list after buying Shinobi: Art of Vengeance.

I know this had a lot of thought put into it. I really can't believe Sega has fallen this much!!! Delisting Sega Genesis Classics is like you're trying to steer the Titantic after it hit the iceburg!!! I apologize to use an horrible incident as an example. Where everything stands I'm beyond done with Sega. I am only going to support Sonic movie franchise from this point on.

Games I'm very hyped for in 2026

This was a request by DesertFox088.

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I usually don't do this particular topic for a very simple reason. I often forget a game or more I'm very hype up that's coming out next year. I figured for a few reasons including gotten requested to do it. Why not reveal majority of those 2026 games? I'll quickly list the ones I previously discussed while linking previous blogs to speed things up down below...

1. Resident Evil Requiem

2. Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival

3. 007 First Light

4. Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight

5. Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake

6. The Transylvania Adventure of Simon Quest

Alright now I will be going into details over more 2026 games I'm very hype for. My list can easily differ from everyone else's. I just wanted to throw out some possibly amazing games. I know some people close to me instantly knew these were coming. This is going to be quite an year in gaming if things goes well. Here we go with the madness that should going to be 2026 gaming!!!

1. Marvel's Wolverine

I heard about Marvel's Spider-Man game series. Essentially Marvel's answer to Batman: Arkham series. The good ones that Batman series recently haven't been constant. I know they going to do an spin off Wolverine game. Let's be honest, there isn't many decent X-Men or Wolverine games. I really felt they could do a lot with the character.

Hard to say how it'll do against X-Men Origins: Wolverine the better video game. I always been a huge Wolverine fan for a long time. I really wanna feel like the character when I'm playing it. There's a situation that could seriously hurt the game's development. I do know the developers made some truly fantastic games.

Let's be honest, playing as Wolverine like having a power fantasy. In his case, he can regenerate rapidly from many things. You shouldn't don't care to do crazy things. All the possible fun not doing the story lol. Also knowing they have a lot of outfits. I really want them to go the distance with them. What I want more of though is a decent story for the character.

I don't want another variation of a famous Wolverine story that ultimately doesn't stand on it's own. At least make the game better than some Wolverine movies. I felt this game has potential that could differ depending on things since it's a licensed game. I want this to sorta be like Prototype series. I could be neutral at times to help keep things being interesting.

2. Bloodstained: The Scarlet Engagement

I really enjoyed Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. A spiritual successor to several Castlevania games I really enjoyed. The trailer instantly sold me realizing the steam behind Ritual of the Night doing it. This also going to be an metroidvania with some RPG elements. Some aspects of horror that's gets Devil May Cry epic at times.

The franchise heavily inspired by Castlevania to begin with. I already was an Castlevania fan made this take me my money!!! I may have to wait a long time for remaining DLCs to get added. This is an indie horror game series after all. But a rather impressive one at that to quickly make up for it. Considering Ritual of the Night does things those Castlevania games haven't done before.

I am expecting more of that with the new Bloodstained game. Of course, we gotta talk about the music. The soundtrack with the sound effects could be really great. I also want the massive map to be a rather unique experience. I basically want more Castlevania style games minus Konami not sorry. I already know this going to be well worth the wait.

3. RACCOIN: Coin Pusher Roguelike

Just going by the demo alone this quickly became a game I'm very hyped for. You often pushing coins that all differ in some way. Once you get how the game works the real fun begins. It's a style of games that often randomizes to keep things refreshing. You just never know what's coming your way. I still couldn't imagine a demo was that much fun!!!

I do plan to buy it later next year. I even done a survey giving them feedback after I tried out the demo. I really want this to be a great indie video game. I couldn't imagine playing with coins would ever be this much fun!!! The best part is they easily could add stuff in. I really want to see how truly creative they get with the game.

I also wanna see how ridiculous some people's builds going to be. The demo itself already incredibly fun. I would drop everything for the right YouTubers to play the game in videos I'm not kidding. RACCOIN is going to be a surprise hit in gaming. Honestly, I can't wait to play the actual game in the near future.

4. Mouse PI For Hire

I kept an eye on this Mickey Mouse/BioShock inspired FPS game. The actual look being like the classic cartoons era I love with a huge passion. The later trailers further sold me on the game play. The animations is a major factor why I wanna play this!!! I don't care if there's lack of colors. I know my wife doesn't like that.

At least Disney can't do anything to prevent this game from getting release. This also isn't directly an indie horror game either like Bad Cheese. This should stand out like Cuphead despite a vastly different game play style. I know it'll be a little weird to play an unofficial Mickey Mouse style game. But this also seems surprisingly awesome from the trailers.

I do expect great story telling with some clever jokes thrown in. I am hoping there's a few endings. Even if it's just one ending the next big thing is a few modes. I don't want just the single player campaign. I simply want to see how truly creative they could get with the game. I really hope this turns out to be a great FPS game.

5. Romeo is a Dead Man

I was instantly sold on the announcement trailer. Which was a pretty mess up trailer to announce the world to a game with. Right away I could tell Chainsaw Man was major inspiration. Currently one of my biggest manga series I'm reading. There's a newer trailer revealing it's release date. Now we know this is going to be a twisted take on the famous Romeo and Juliet story.

Going by the game play you can either shoot or slash up enemies. I simply love the crazier, edgier anime style they're going for. The game looks great for such an concept. I felt they aren't going to hide back on the madness!!! I wanna scream like Denji as Chainsaw Man slicing up devils!!! I know a little extreme but that's the direction they're going for.

Maybe the world needs this style of games. Honestly I am curious to find out if it'll be worth playing or not soon. Romeo is a Dead Man could have more surprises I didn't expect. I want such an experience I really wanna go through all of it again with similar levels of excitement. I guess we will see if this stays on my 2026 hit list or not.

6. John Carpenter's Toxic Commando

John been a very busy man recently. Not only he's doing an horror video game. He's finally making an movie sequel to The Thing. One of his most famous movies he's directed. Personally among my favorites of his as well. This is going to be similar to several zombie games. You play with a group of survivors taking on the undead.

If Carpenter gets allowed to go the distance. There's a chance this game going to stand out enough from some of those. Also considering The Thing Remastered done well. He should more excited to making this horror game. I'm just glad he's finally out of retirement to deliver more amazing horror stories. A greatly underrated horror movie director.

Toxic Commando should be similar to some of his most famous movies. But differs enough to be it's own thing like Prince of Darkness being a great example of that. I do expect this going to be a somewhat decent horror game. But if it ends up as one of the most hyped I'll be happier. Carpenter truly deserves respect with this confirming he's still got some life left in him.

7. Gears of War: E-Day

This is a prequel that could answer some of the biggest questions. They previously touched parts of it through Gears of War: Judgment. Even with Gears of War: Reloaded not being great. I do think they still could make up for it here. We already know Marcus Fenix going to be in the game. Everyone loves Fenix to begin with.

This should be similar style to most of the series. I felt how it's going to differ is some aspects of it's story telling. There's always a chance we'll swap between members. Which is a common trend in the series. I just wish if they going for that again. Each major character delivers their own unique perceptive to the same event.

Even an unlikely enemy character that ends up being an ally short term with his race's enemies. Ultimately knowing there's a horrible ending awaiting them would be a cool concept. I'll go for a more likely thing to happen though. They are going full on CrossPlay that won't help the game much. Personally what I want the most is more iconic moments with Fenix.

8. Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls

This Marvel game's announcement caused Marvel vs. Capcom fans to lose it I'm not kidding. The same company responsible for many anime fighting games Also includes Guilty Gear and my favorite series from them, BlazBlue. Now they're making an licensed Marvel game. It seems recently many companies jumping hard on Marvel.

In a way I'm happy about since I do like Marvel more than DC. Although some aspects is respectfully done better in DC or Imagine. From what I seen of the game play I actually wanna play this. I don't like it's not coming to Xbox. Which forces me to get it on Steam. Otherwise I love everything else about the game.

There's a huge concern how would it stand out from Marvel vs. Capcom series? Honestly, I think they are going to deliver a more in depth story mode. Possibly better endings which could differ for MvC series. Just don't give me you beaten the game with a secret character crap please. Let's hope this turns out better than their Hunter X Hunter game not sorry.

I also gotta mention the throwing salt at Capcom's faces. They going beyond newer MvC games by doing 4v4 matches. It means we can have up to four characters for a team during matches. Capcom previously done this with Capcom vs. SNK 1 but that's restricted. They even making this CrossPlay further pouring salt right into their eyes!!!

Conclusion

There always possibly could be more games I didn't mention. From the ones I covered here I'm quite hyped for. It would be very nice all of them doesn't suck. I do expect good things from indie developers. I'm sure some retros coming back. I don't feel great about AAA situation though. They are digging an massive hole that's dooming the industry as a whole.

My thoughts on Every Endings in No, I'm Not a Human

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, as of last night I finally gotten the last ending I needed. In No, I'm Not a Human that took some time getting. Now I'm ready to discuss my thoughts on all the endings. This will be spoiler filled follow up to my last No, I'm Not a Human blog. If you don't wanna get spoiled don't read this at all please don't be a prick about it.

I'm going by No, I'm Not a Human wiki lineup rather than the actual game lineup. Personally I don't think it matters much. I won't sugar coat some of these endings are rather mess up. Some endings has additional rng factors that makes em trickier to get. Thankfully it's not a long horror game. I can't remember the last time I had to go for every ending in a horror game.

Ending 1: Child of Doom

This is the most rng based ending in the game. First you need a particular woman to visit. Then you gotta hope she is a Visitor or you aren't getting the ending. You also need to say particular stuff to her. Less than a week she get pregnant because you two are sleeping together. She would die from child birth in that period.

Then you gotta look for the baby in a few spots within the house. After that you need to look outside to a rather unexpected window cut scene sequence. The baby drinking a random dog's milk. Finally you go to answer the front door to trigger the ending. Essentially the ending heavily implies your character dies.

People saw the baby as the Anti Christ. A new horrible beginning to the world. I was rather surprised this ending included in the game. At the same time, it makes senses why it is though. Easily among the most mess up endings. It's not the weirdest ending though. This ending usually among the last endings people gets in the game.

Ending 2: The End?

You need to make sure the amount of people doesn't matter. They just need to be human on the last day. Then after boarding up the windows. You go beneath to trigger the ending. Now this is one of the most expected among the endings. Your character spends months with a group of people. Not much happens during the ending means it was done perfectly.

The ending plays off of everyone down there unsure of things outside the house. They must somehow manage to survive months. Of course, things could happen within the group. The main character isn't a people person either. I felt it's a good, fitting conclusion. The uncertainty by itself is exactly why I love this ending.

Ending 3: No, I'm Not Alone

This ending is parallel to The End? ending. It's a very similar condition ending. Except you make sure you have at least one Visitor left in the house. Majority of the ending plays out similar. Until the Visitors decides to come after you. They don't hold back on how brutal of a death it is either. I absolutely love you see their eyes being mostly white.

Somehow this comes off being freaky. This is also among the most expected endings. I actually prefer the twist a lot myself. Just when your character had this uneasiness. It later gets confirmed in a rather unpleasant matter. This also confirms your character never was safe. I loved this ending in the game. This fits in perfectly with the theme.

Ending 4: May Death Cleanse us of Our Sins

Here's another rng based ending. You have a cult leader that forces his followers into your home. You need to make sure all three of them makes it to a later visit of their leader. It doesn't matter if one or more are Visitors. If you know what to say to him. You should get offered to join the cult. You can't directly kill them even if they are all humans.

You gotta hope Visitors already in your home doesn't kill em either. You also need to make sure to a degree. FEMA doesn't take at least one of them out of the house. Thankfully you do get an handful of FEMA papers. Among giving to other people in the house guarantees. FEMA will take them to avoid taking any of the cultists.

This cult believes Death as their god. The ending goes into full details about that. They believe in the end being a new beginning. This ending was rather unexpected in many ways. I was even surprised the cultists were a factor for a particular ending honestly. I would say it's a little of a dark ending. Among the most twisted logic endings in the game.

Ending 5: Welcome to FEMA

Another multiple steps you gotta hope to get asked endings. You need to FEMA a few times it's mostly meh though. You also need to save FEMA related stuff on the television. You also need to be somewhat pleasant with the FEMA Agent. This person will come by a couple times. Often taking people out of the house.

Which will put you at risk getting another ending. You also need to give FEMA notices to any people in the house. You should eventually get ask about joining. Now this was a mess up ending with some uncertainty. You left your home to join em leading to places getting set on fire. You aren't even sure what happened to your home or if what you're doing a good or bad thing?

I absolutely love this picture of your character's fully dressed up seeing fire reflecting off their eyes. Almost as if they are in Hell for what they done. Considering how many similar horror stories goes. This technically would be among the more expected endings. This was a great ending you could easily miss out getting.

Ending 6: Yes, I'm Alone

One of the famous bad endings. Either don't have enough people in the house or lie about it to the mascot Visitor. You should get suddenly kicked out the conversation. He will break through the door to kill you. He could often come by your house in a run. If you're lucky, he might let you know two or more people in your house are Visitors.

This ending stands out in many ways. This monster you know wants a reason to come in to kill you. You are doing what you can by default to not get killed by him. I also love he appears fully 3D model right before he kills you. He already looks freaky to begin with. This guy is rather unpleasant at times. I was surprised it's an actual ending in the game.

Ending 7: Yes, I'm a Murderer

This was among the first endings I gotten. Another famous mess up bad ending. You must kill at least four confirmed humans in a single playthrough. The Prophetic Man will appear to trigger the ending. I simply love how the ending plays out. Your character realizes he's been killing humans. Purely out of paranoia or fear they might've been Visitors.

Just when they're about to commit suicide. We see hands very likely from Visitors about to grab him. Stuff like this is essentially nightmare fuel. Your character already loss the will to live. We don't even know which death your character ultimately gotten. Which was genius on their part. This creates a debate which actually killed him thus creating more interest into the game.

Ending 8: Shroom or Doom

Easily among the weirdest endings in the game. Also one of the weirdest endings I ever seen in an horror game period. It's partly rng because you need a particular bearded old man to show up. He will offer to give you a page. This piece of paper has instructions what you need to do. All of it is suddenly something appears.

You need to know what to do with em. Which ended up being surprisingly straight forward. You need to find a huge mushroom beneath the house. Place it in the fridge to eventually eat it. You also must find an child hood toy of your character. A clock should appear in your bedroom. Just interacting with it automatically sets the time to midnight.

Then you should get offered to go with the old man. We get to see a massive mushroom grow out of the ground. You two attempted to prepare a ritual to stop that. Yes it does question if any of this real, a dream or you are on drugs? There's a huge chance it's possibly two of those. The song playing makes it even stranger.

Ending 9: Embrace The Inevitable

This heavily involves the Prophetic Man. He will often come by your house. You must let the Cat Lady whose a confirmed Visitor into your home. He will then tell you don't test anyone for a few days. One of his last visits he will offer to give you something. Which you will use to dig a hole beneath your house.

You don't have to go far for the other critical character. A man whose trapped nearby two holes essentially. You talk to him through a huge hole in the tunnel. I should point out you should order two cans of energy drinks. Simply to dig up a hole with all energy uses em up. Drinking those will give you additional digs in a single day.

Otherwise you have to space out digging that hole. You also put yourself at risk for another ending. The last visit from The Prophetic Man will confirm you can go for the ending. I should point out each later visit he looks worst. It's heavily implied he died before you go down a huge hole. Which could've been somewhat inspired by Silent Hill 4: The Room.

You need in a mysterious void talking to Death. yes the actual entity Death that leads to you going to the afterlife. A much more peaceful variation of your home minus people. The ending also confirms day/night doesn't exist there. It's a surprisingly peaceful ending with everything considered. It is easy to miss out getting this ending.

Ending 10: Wrath of the Vigilante

The Vigilante aka the guy with a rifle often comes by your house. The first visit isn't anything to worry about. The later visits he'll request to check you for signs. If you fail these this instantly triggers the ending. Your character gets shot but the man gets a brutal death. It doesn't end there your character decides to find his group to take em all out.

This unexpected man with a shotgun took out armed people like it's nothing. Suddenly I'm reminded of the movie, Hobo with a Shotgun lol. I also should point out if you pass the first check. The following check will remove the previous option you selected to make it harder. I simply loved how this ending plays out.

This goes to show he mess with the wrong man. You can tell The Vigilante doesn't care what he does to people. I don't feel bad he ends up dead afterwards. I didn't expect such an ending to be in the game. I will give em credit for doing it!!! You also need to avoid triggering the mascot Visitor ending as well. Otherwise you should get the ending in no time.

Ending 11: In the Dark (newest ending)

In my opinion, one of the deepest endings in the game. It acts as a parallel ending to two other endings. Except only your character made it beneath the house. The ending reveals more back story of the character. You suddenly felt bad he's all alone. This was an ending I'm surprised just gotten added in. Something happens above effectively trapping your character.

It heavily implies your character doesn't have longer to live. This is among the most perfect endings in the game. It is fitting of the theme to the point it deserves to be called easily one of the best endings. You also don't wanna trigger another ending that involves killing four humans in a run. You could luck out like I once did.

An dream sequence came up very late into a run. Removing everyone that was staying in the house. I automatically became perfectly set up to get this ending. This was actually the second time I gotten it funny enough. This game is surprisingly deep when it goes into it's lore. Absolutely why I love this particular ending so much!!!

Conclusion

No, I'm Not a Human is easily among the greatest written indie horror games I ever played. I don't think any of it's endings done poorly. In fact, a good number of them were way better than I could possibly imagine!!! Majority of them you actually could see happen in such an situation. The team behind it was rather creative indeed.

I also liked you can save to a degree to help prevent getting screw out of some endings. I am deeply impressed I like majority of the endings so much myself. Suddenly No, I'm Not a Human is among the most inspiring horror games I ever played!!! If they add in more endings I'll gladly come back to go for em.

The music choices with the images we see really help sells each ending. All possible ways for your character's story to end. I'm also happy they sold 850,000 copies on Steam. This could imply they could be considering to bring the game to consoles. Personally I would greatly appreciate the game gets onto GOG more.

For a short length indie horror game. The actual stories told within it are quite impactful. Each ending brings something else to the table. Even three of them being alternative versions of each other. They still felt like their own endings rather than minor changes that's it. Let's put it this way it's not Resident Evil 1 either version or Shadow the Hedgehog game.

Each ending tells a great conclusion to all the madness. The possibility of more endings could be added. It means we still haven't seen this game's full potential. I know some would be rather harsh about that. I actually felt that's a great sign. They could leave some of those ideas for a possible follow up or spiritual successor.

I am happy No, I'm Not a Human was nominated for Steam Awards' Outstanding Story-Rich Game Award. Although I don't think it would win regarding the other nominees. Of course, I voted for it because the game won me over that much. Even considering many situations comes from particular people visiting your house.

I'm glad that aspect also plays into the endings as well. Otherwise they just felt like unrelatable stories. It's mind blowing how they properly tie in all the endings. I don't believe the game has a true canon ending. But that also could take a lot away from the game if it had one. Suddenly it's Silent Hill 2 either version with no confirmed canon ending.

This triggers a debate what the fans believes to be the canon ending? Thus further creating more interest into the game. Maybe I'm thinking incredibly deep here. No, I'm Not a Human works wonders like that. Especially for a cheap indie horror game. It really does deliver such an unforgivable experience. This horror game is a must play before you die game I really felt.

Games of 2025 list

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I wanted to do one more list before I stopped doing em. Games of lists always meant a lot to me. Sometimes I forget stuff I simply looked up some of those lists. Suddenly some great memories comes back. Next year being questionably at best for our future including my wife.

I wanted to do a final Games of list before such concepts gets either put on hold or get stopped altogether. I'm already quite proud of such an amazing lineup of games this year. Game Pass on Xbox wise played a major factor making this possible. Not many games on the actual list I directly bought being a huge surprise.

Possibly hundreds if not over an thousand hours went into this. Which is ridiculous but as a gamer I'm quite fine with this. Time does fly when you're having fun. There's barely any bad games at all here. The very best of them are difficult to stop playing. The fun factor might possibly be the highest yet.

I also make sure to clarify which platforms. To help prevent confusion on release dates for anyone that's selective on the details. Some games takes a few months to a few years to go from PC to consoles. A few games fits right into that situation. With all of that said please enjoy reading this blog entry.

I also have a few rules I went by as they follow down below...

1. Any compilation games could only be on the list if I played all the games

2. I must legally played the games no modding or rom hacking or stealing em

3. No mods

4. No newer story DLCs to older games allowed

I played through fifty games in the entire lineup alone. A large amount of them within several compilation games. I really went way bigger than I previously had before. This really felt like the one to end it all with for sure this time. I just hope anyone reading this enjoys the blog entry. It does mean a lot to me maybe you learn about a few games that may interest ya.

Here's a link to my double review blog for Mullet Madjack and Crime Scene Cleaner down below...

20. Overpowered 1 - Mars Infestation

Xbox Series X/PC (Xbox Anywhere)

September 2, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/overpowered-1-mars-infestation-2025.html

For a cheap Xbox game it was a little better than I expected. You get four main levels with two survival maps. Everything is a small variety barely any content. The main reason why it's ranked so low in a rather long list. For what it's worth the game doesn't suck. It just comes close enough to be somewhat decent.

You kinda want more than what the game has to offer. I did like the art work easily one of my favorite aspects. It wouldn't be fair to compare this to games like Vampire Survivors. Honestly, it works fine on two platforms through Xbox Anywhere program. I felt it was worth the amount it goes for. I do think a few major changes could bring this game to life!!!

19. I Am Your Beast

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

June 25, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/09/i-am-your-beast-2025-review.html

Sorta reminded me of Unmetal. Both were a serious tone stories with jokes thrown in. This felt like Mullet Madjack to a degree. You had to be quickly adapt to many situations on the fly. S ranks were a little too short of a time limit to get in most levels. The audio as a whole loved all of it!!! The controls are just perfect for an game like this.

Yes you have to do some additional runs to unlock some levels. But the bonus challenges makes things rather interesting. Some of which even made those levels more fun to play. It is very critical at making the smallest mistakes you'll die. Also get use to the same environment the entire game. Despite those it's a very fun FPS game I can easily recommend.

18. Gears of War: Reloaded

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

August 26, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/09/gears-of-war-reloaded-2025-review.html

This is the third version of the same game I played. I am going to be honest it was quite faithful to Gears of War: Ultimate Edition. I wasn't expecting signs of being rushed out. I kept noticing AI on both sides not acting right or doing stupid stuff. I will give em some credit it does load up a lot faster. Which is great when you die a lot in later portions.

The one true high light it has is Crossplay for multiplayer modes. Otherwise the few changes doesn't truly matter. I was in all honestly more impressed by Ultimate Edition years ago. Which came out the same year I gotten married in 2015. It's still a great game with technical issues holding it back. Still disappointed this wasn't a newer version of Gears 2 or the original Gears trilogy.

17. Beat 'Em Up Collection (7 games)

Xbox Series X/PC (Xbox Anywhere)

July 17, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/beat-em-up-collection-2025-review.html

Easily the worst overall compilation game I played all year long. Sword of Sodan was a really terrible game. Most of the lineup is alright at best. You actually have more fun cheating em than playing it like normal. Surprisingly it does a lot of things right. At the same time, it's not Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle quality either.

I always welcome more Sega Genesis games to play. Beat 'Em Up Collection can differ achievement/trophy hunting. Just based if you going the distance without codes. But it's virtually guarantee most of them you'll get regardless which direction you go in. I felt I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream on the same engine was better.

16. Megabonk

Steam

September 18, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/megabonk-2025-review.html

There's some huge issues that holds this game back a lot. At it's core Megabonk is an incredibly fun game. It's a little too much like Vampire Survivors. Despite some notable changes within the game play. You could easily confuse the two games. Difficulty is notably unbalanced at times. It's an fun game to achievement hunt though.

Parts of it comes off being a weird parody of the genre. In most aspects there's plenty of stuff to keep you busy. I personally wish there was more than two locations. Some characters takes a little longer getting use to playing as. Megabonk is still an game I could recommend to people. I simply felt most the ones I played are better.

At the time writing this I still haven't cleared Tier 2. They also added a new difficult level with the ghosts. This game simply not balanced at all!! I will say it could be fun for a little while. Still can't believe it gotten nominated at Steam Awards for Sit Back and Relax Award. I voted for RV There Yet? myself.

It simply doesn't belong there. This category meant to be games you simply relax while playing. Megabonk is the exact opposite of that. Maybe I'll get RV There Yet? in the near future. The team actually wanted Megabonk to be nominated for Best Game You Suck At Award lol. I guess they didn't suck enough to get nominated lol.

15. Decision Legacy Collection (4 games)

Steam

January 30, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/03/decision-legacy-collection-2025-review.html

Despite being near the bottom of such a great lineup. I still recommend Decision Legacy Collection. Especially Decision: Medieval it's so damn good!!! I even fully 100% that five times with three of those done on Hard+ aka hidden hardest difficulty. On the surface you get what you see. Don't expect any major changes whatsoever.

You still getting four amazing flash games packed with content. You will be spending hours to fully experience them all. I'm quite impressed what they were pulled off with these games. Achievement hunt might not be necessary great. I still think it's a good replacement when you wanna play Doom series. Decision series earned my respect with some amazing game play these offer.

14. Crime Scene Cleaner

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

April 17, 2025

Now here's a game out of the blue I decided to try out through Game Pass on Xbox. I quickly ended up enjoying this cleaning simulator game. You get some great story telling while you explore the levels. I also love you gotta be creative about several situations. There's no real need to rush cleaning at all. The controls are just about perfect.

Crime Scene Cleaner is a game that blew me away. You get an upgrade system that doesn't get over complex. Each level is vastly different that kept getting tricker to clean up. You just never know which secrets you uncover. I'm not surprised this became a huge hit on Xbox either. This game is perfect if you wanna take things slow or don't feel that stress from playing this at all.

Update: they added new DLC to the game. I am not sure when I'll fully get the game. I will confirm they added more achievements. These are essentially harder variations of the same levels with new story thrown in. I don't think it's a deal breaker I'm missing out on that.

13. I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream

GOG

October 16, 2025 (updated to be the newer version)

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/10/i-have-no-mouth-and-i-must-scream.html

This was originally an horror DOS point & click game. Earlier this year a newer version gotten on consoles. More recently both Steam & GOG received this version through an update. Which is exactly how I'm able to play it on GOG since I owned the old version. It's a surprisingly easy game to achievement/trophy hunt.

I liked you can play any of the scenarios you want before the end game starts. I felt this held up way better than I thought. I also liked you can listen to the music among the bonus stuff. I never seen this game play this good!!! I would say it's a rather unique take on the genre. You may never play anything like this ever again!!!

12. Darkenstein 3D

Steam

October 21, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/10/darkenstein-3d-2025-review.html

For a free FPS game I couldn't imagine it being this great. I would even go as far to say easily could've been an Wolfenstein game. Imagine a more silly Wolfenstein style game. You could throw a rat at your enemies. Some other notable FPS franchises influence as well. Somehow all of it works amazingly well. I absolutely loved Hobo Guy with a passion.

This easily could've been an twenty dollar FPS game. A good variety of enemies with the bosses differ enough from each other. A good selection of weapons to keep it fun with plenty of ammo. Every level differs plenty to make it a rather unique experience. Especially when it suddenly becomes more like an Serious Sam game at the end I loved that!!!

11. Mullet Madjack

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

March 13, 2025

This was such an amazing anime style FPS game. This was amazingly fun from start to finish. Rogue like aspects done just right. Truly fantastic animations with great voice acting. You could turn off randomized levels but it's just more fun keeping that on. This felt like an Arcade style boom shooter that never gets old or boring by any means.

In all honestly, I was quite blown away by this. It even sold me wanting to get this game on GOG no joke. Achievement hunting for the most part is a lot of fun. You get a lot of fun surprises on the way. I personally didn't like how you get the actual ending. Despite that, I highly recommend checking out Mullet Madjack.

10. My Friendly Neighborhood

Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

July 17, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/07/crash-bandicoot-4-its-about-time-2020.html

I previously knew about this game when it was on Steam. Imagine an Resident Evil 7 style game taking on Muppets you get this!!! For the most part you uncover the truth what happened? Despite not many weapons they all work quite differently. There's a little variety within the enemies. I also like helping several characters removes em as enemies for reminder of the game.

The voice acting is truly amazing. Believe it or not, the sound effects are even better!!! They even done their version of The Mercenaries as well. Some clever puzzles with some good maps to use. I personally loved how well the inventory works in the game. My Friendly Neighborhood is among my favorite RE clones I played!!!

9. Gex Trilogy (3 games)

Steam

June 16, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/12/gex-trilogy-2025-review.html

I been waiting since 2023 to play this. I loved the trailers for this compilation game. I'm very glad Gex finally came back after all these years. Three of his best games in one package. You got most of the content from the PS1 versions. I loved the new features as a whole. Each Gex game differs just enough to stand out from each other.

A decent platformer collection that's more often overlooked than anything else. Of course, Gex eventually led to people loving Deadpool more recently. Largely parodying pop culture with already dated jokes back then. Yet there's just something about Gex we don't care. You can't go wrong with this collection.

8. DUSK

Xbox Series X/PC (Xbox Anywhere)

October 31, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/dusk-2025-review.html

DUSK is heavily inspired by Quake 1. In every aspect I felt out done the very game that inspired it. It's broken up into three episodes that are a rather unique experience. The game being on Xbox Anywhere program was a bonus. This was a truly amazing FPS game. A surprisingly refreshing one at that. DUSK can easily withstand the test of time.

Sure it has similarities with Cultic. I do think it can hold it's own quite well. The audio as a whole truly impressive work. A huge variety of enemies to constantly keep things interesting. Plenty of fun weapons for classic inspired boomer shooter style fun. DUSK also has Endless Mode for the crazier FPS fans. This game is truly amazing at everything it does.

7. Swords & Souls Legacy Collection (5 games)

Steam

July 22, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/08/swords-souls-legacy-collection-2025.html

This is a collection of five flash games from 2010s. The fact these were released a couple months from each other is rather impressive. Even my least favorite being The Gentleman ended up being a rather unique experience. There's a lot of variety of game play in this collection. Achievement hunting ended up being among the most fun I done in a long time honestly.

The Soul Driver is a fun game you turn your brain off while playing. Rogue Soul 2 is absolutely amazing. Swords & Souls is in all honestly too damn great of a game!!! Majority of them are surprisingly short games. I actually felt this collection was done just right for this. I highly recommend checking this collection out on Steam.

6. Heretic + Hexen (2 games)

GOG and Xbox Series X (Game Pass)

August 7, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/08/heretic-hexen-2025-version-review.html

Similar to Doom + Doom II, Nightdive remastered two classic FPS games with extras. Not only you get those games with their expansions. They also made two new campaigns that fits in perfectly. Heretic is very similar to the first two Doom games with some slight changes. Hexen on the other hand is a totally different ball game!!!

You are getting virtually as close as much game play as Doom + Doom II. Even excluding their mod support features. I was truly really impressed with this remaster. You also get some cool bonuses you can check out as well. Just the right changes to make both games a bit easier to play. Heretic + Hexen is a truly fantastic compilation game that I really highly recommend checking this out!!!

5. No, I'm Not a Human

Steam

September 15, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/12/no-im-not-human-2025-review.html

Easily one of the greatest indie games I played all year. Considering it originally was in a horror compilation game. This turned out to be a fantastic horror game. Very iconic right down to it's core. I simply absolutely loved everything about it. I'm proud to voted for it a few times at The Horror Game Awards this year.

4. Dino Crisis Bundle (2 games)

GOG

January 29, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/05/dino-crisis-bundle-review.html

Earlier this year, Capcom surprise a lot of people rereleasing the first two Dino Crisis games. These were handled similar to Resident Evil Bundle games. My controller works perfectly for these. Two amazing Capcom classics you don't wanna miss. Especially if you love games similar to Resident Evil series.

The first Dino Crisis is like a more rough RE3 classic experience with dinosaurs. The second Dino Crisis actually felt like RE4 either version in a nut shell. Two vastly different styles with a similar concept. Both of them held up amazingly well you just gotta play these!!! Especially Dino Crisis 2 it's such a great action game.

3. Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics (7 games)

Xbox Series X

February 4, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/04/marvel-vs-capcom-fighting-collection.html

It's no surprise I'm an huge MvC fan since childhood. I was caught off guard when this compilation was announced last year. I chose to wait for it's Xbox version. You are getting some amazing Arcade games. You already are in great hands with Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

This is essentially better than the first Capcom Fighting Collection. This is already among my favorite Marvel games I ever played!!! Even the minor issues aren't going to affect anything. You are getting some nice surprises in this collection. Easily among my absolute favorites this year by far.

2. Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

Xbox Series X (Game Pass) I own it now

September 17, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/11/deep-rock-galactic-survivor-2025-review.html

When this game hit Game Pass it left Early Access. I previous knew about the game from Mike Matei streamed it on Twitch a while back. Sure it has similarities to Vampire Survivors. I actually felt there's more in depth with the game play. Also considering all of it is in 3D makes everything stand out way more!!!

I still couldn't believe how truly great this game is. It doesn't have a true end but you got plenty of content to keep you busy. You play as four dwarves that notably differ from each other. You can upgrade as well as customize cosmetics for them. In all honestly everything about Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor is truly amazing stuff!!!

For fun I'll quickly rank the best games from each compilation game represented. Keep in mind, this is strictly my opinion alone. But lists like this could easily differ from other people. You are always welcome to present your own lists on this topic. This is going to be fun!!!

1. Capcom Fighting Collection 2 (8 games)

Steam

May 16, 2025

https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/12/capcom-fighting-collection-2-2025-review.html

Now this is what I call a worthy follow fighting compilation game. Somehow ended up being more fun than the previous entries. A mostly solid lineup of fighting games. Packed with enough surprises to keep you busy for hours. Hands down worthy to be nominated for either Best Fighting Game award. I am deeply impressed how damn great it truly was!!!

More recently Capcom Fighting Collection 2 won Best Fighting Game awards. Which I strongly felt were well deserved. I hope they make more Capcom Fighting Collection games soon. This easily among my favorites to date. This is exactly why I love Capcom so much!!! They brought back some truly fantastic games that's timeless classics.

6. Decision: Medieval

I was deeply impressed with this flash game. They took the concept to the past. Who knew it would turned out to be so awesome? I felt in most aspects this was the best balanced among all the Decision games.

5. Hexen

Hexen was a rather unique take on the genre. Even going as far to not have actual firearms. Despite the common label of being an FPS game. It has a rather unique hub design that pulls you in. Some truly amazing animations with surprisingly fun game play.

4. Swords & Souls

This was among the greatest flash games I ever played!!! You create your own avatar to be in this world. I simply loved everything about this game!!! You easily could play this for hours. Easily one of the finest games you level up in hands down.

Gex 3

Gex 3 is a solid 3D platformer. I loved each level are huge worlds inspired by Banjo-Kazooie. Some of my absolute favorite jokes in the series. Even the hub world as a whole among my favorite aspects. The audio as a whole works amazingly well.

2. Capcom vs. SNK 2

Easily one of the greatest fighting games. Not to mention crossovers in a video game I ever played!!! This game held up insanely well after so many years. You simply aren't living until you play this!!! It is that damn good of a fighting game!!!

1. Marvel vs. Capcom 2

A truly fantastic crossover fighting game. Over fifty characters with two versions of Wolverine. It's mind blowing how damn great this game truly is!!! Even one shared ending everything else works incredibly well.

Some bonus awards section

Worst Game of 2025

Sword of Sodan

Let's be honest, we knew Sword of Sodan was bad. I didn't expect it to be this bad!!! I would even recommend playing the original Street Fighter over it.

Most Surprising Game of 2025

My Friendly Neighborhood

To say this was a surprise is quite the understatement. My Friendly Neighborhood was so unique in what it brings to the table.

Best Compilation Game of 2025

Capcom Fighting Collection 2

Just when I thought it couldn't get any better. I played Capcom Fighting Collection 2. WOW my standards went even higher than I possibly could've imagined!!!

Best Indie Game of 2025

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

This was a truly fantastic indie game. You play as dwarves taking on alien insects. I could not possibly imagine how much insane depth this had!!!
