The Song of the Exile review

September 25, 2025 | Reading time: ~1 minute

The Song of the Exile is the strongest entry in the series yet, with the strongest plot and characters we've seen.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) review

September 16, 2025 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is a real visual treat and tells a fun story. The animation on display here is fascinating; there's so much going on in every scene, the characters move so well, it may very well be the most impressive animated movie I've ever seen.

The Social Network (2010) review

September 14, 2025 | Reading time: ~1 minute

I joined Facebook "late" - back in 2009. I had always been aware of this movie, but thought it was more of a biopic of Mark Zuckerberg, rather than a pretty funny, witty, and entertaining story of the founding and first year of Facebook.

Master of Battle review

September 14, 2025 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Another excellent entry, as we continue exploring the life of El Cid through the eyes of Antonio Perez. Fun characters, hectic battles, and the colorful political backdrop of early Medieval Spain make this a quick and entertaining read.

Guards! Guards! review

September 3, 2025 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Perhaps the last major fantasy "legend" I've yet to read is Terry Pratchett. I've read Tolkien, Lewis, Martin, Abercrombie, Moorcock, Vance, and many, many more, but Pratchett's Discworld is one that's always eluded me.

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting.

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Another project I'm working on is my Pokemon Living Dex Challenge, where I try to obtain one of each available Pokemon and transfer them into Pokemon Home.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
• Reviews, where I post longer-form writeups
• Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
• Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
