Hi! You may have noticed it's been very quiet around here for the last few months. We got kind of overwhelmed when the site first received all the attention that it did, and that real life stuff lead to burnout. We're not dead! Just resting.

The Patreon has been paused 'cause I was having massive guilt trips over the 5 people who were still giving us money every month.
In case anyone is interested, I' ll be putting the site's source code on GitHub this weekend.
Hopefulle we will return soon! This has been MTXZ news

If you want to be able to differentiate between which admin is tweeting, simply remember that @TaylorBartman tweets informative and easily-understandable things whereas I (@instant_grat) tweet shit like this

News on multiple tagsets per game, divided by platform (yes we're still doing that): It's currently in the "if you don't click where you're not supposed to it will technically work"-stage

Still a lot of work to be done. But things are moving! Soon™ it'll also be hooked into the advanced search engine, so searching for PS4 games tagged "Spotless" will get you Dark Souls, even tho it has expansions on 360/PS3.

Do you ever feel like you're going around in circles? (Assassin's Creed: Origins last year vs. Assassin's Creed: Odyssey today)

It's fun to think about how, even though these are basically the same exact thing, one of them is presented as "pre-order and you'll get this extra bonus" while the other is "if you don't pre-order you won't get the whole game."
