The Future of Too Long for Twitter

Featured / Michael Beckwith / Leave a comment

Due to some big changes happening in my life, Too Long for Twitter will no longer be regularly updated. I simply don’t have the time to contribute articles every week, and I don’t want to just keeping posting really short pieces like the VG Music Picks.

Does this mean that I’m abandoning the site? No, I enjoy writing for it and want to keep it for posting anything I come up with like reviews, lists, or short fiction. It’s just that I will only be able to do so in any spare time that I can find, so updates will admittedly be very infrequent.

The site will also continue to be home to all and any Entertainment Dome episodes and related projects like Let’s Plays.

So I won’t say “goodbye,” because this isn’t an end, but a weird, new beginning.

This week on The Entertainment Dome, the latest episodes of RWBY Volume 9 raise more questions than answers and I call James out on buying an Xbox Series X just to play Lost Odyssey.

RWBY Volume 8 is a weird one, because when I watched the final episode, I was left feeling really unsure of how I felt about it. If you listened to the RWBY recaps on The Entertainment Dome, you’ll know that my co-host and I were otherwise enjoying it until that last episode. For a short while, I reconsidered whether Volume 8 as a whole was actually quite bad and I just hadn’t realised yet.

This meant I was very curious to rewatch it in one sitting; to see if the things I liked/didn’t like about it were as good/bad as I initially thought they were. And to figure out once and for all how Volume 8 compares to the previous ones in terms of quality.

My Top Five Video Games of 2022

/ Michael Beckwith / Leave a comment

Normally around this time of the year, I put together a list of the ten video games I’m most looking forward to in the following year. After some reflection, though, I’ve decided to stop doing that because, frankly, those lists aren’t exactly timeless. They get outdated so quickly, whether it’s because some of the games in question wound up not coming out or turned out to be bad. Plus, sometimes I struggle finding 10 whole games that I’m super excited for and we never know what the coming year’s full release schedule looks like.

I’d prefer to write something that holds up a lot better; something that can be read years down the line and not feel hilariously outdated. So, I’ve decided to follow the crowd and put together a top five list of my personal favourite games of 2022.
