'Ride With Me' (2024) was a hit single recorded and released for Huntr/x' world tour.

Its lyrics center on teamwork, helping each other reach new heights, and celebrating friendship.

A common misconception, this single was not in fact hastily conceived as an excuse for the author to design racing jackets to match Rumi's outfit in the movie.

Additional doodles that didn't make the cut

Wait, do people know about the Before I Play wiki?

I have used this for..... at this point easily over 6 years. It's a wiki where there will be low-spoiler/non-spoiler hints about just stuff you would want to know before playing a game.

It's always stuff like.... "Vitality in this game is useless, put your points in everything else first" or "Don't leave the second hub town until you buy X item, it'll become unobtainable."

Lemme pick an example almost everyone will know. From the Animal Crossing New Horizons page, the first tip is:

Nearly everything on the island is movable later, including all buildings and even cliffs and rivers. The main things that are fixed are the stuff on the border of the island (river mouths, beaches, rocks/peninsulae, the dock and the airport) and the resident services plaza, so picking your island layout should be based around that primarily.

That's stellar advice, tbh, given what you'll know about the game 30 hours in instead of 30 minutes.

Not every game is covered obviously and not every piece of advice is good, it's all subjective, BUT..... I look up almost every game I play for the first time, just to keep stuff in mind. The SMT4 page had top tier advice imo.

I say this as a military historian:

Operation Red Wings is, like, culturally the most emblematic thing I know of the global war on terror

Navy SEALs hijack a mission that a marine battalion cooked up because they went “this sounds like a special forces mission for special forces!” Then they royally fuck it up so bad that only one man survives of the original team, and a quick reaction force is shot down during landing. Eleven Navy SEALs and eight Army special forces aviation crewmembers are killed. The surviving SEAL is rescued by local Pashtun and then located by the original battalion that was supposed to do the mission anyway.

Said SEAL publishes a book two years later describing his experiences, in which he claims his four man team had a valiant and heroic final stand against hundreds of Taliban insurgents. In 2013 it becomes a movie, depicting the doomed but glorious deaths of his teammates under the inevitable weight of Taliban numbers.

In the eyes of the American public, the story of the ‘Lone Survivor’ is a famous one of American sacrifice, where American boys died against an unstoppable onslaught to protect you and yours from The Terrorists(TM).

Reality:
