Some weird guy did this really long video about the slow decay and death of an industry eating itself alive to chase profit that literally does not exist. Anyway more people should watch that because it turns out even making literally the most successful multiplayer game in a decade isn't enough.

I just don't even know what it would take to make this industry stable at this point. Even the people making what every major publisher seems to want - successful live service forever games that print money - are getting canned after release.

Show me your more precious little possessions for my brithday! Here's mine, all collected over the years from stuff with friends and or other bits and bobs.

It's my birthday so please post your cutest shadow the hedgehogs for me

shadow kofi reqs :)

Borderlands (2024) Dir. Eli Roth Starting to think we need a few more Luigi's in this world letterboxd.com/film/borderl...

Megalopolis (2024) Dir. Francis Ford Coppola Haha dude what the fuck this rocks. This is that good shit, that made for film perverts shit. I'm eating well. letterboxd.com/gabrialjames...

Conclave (2024) Dir. Edward Berger I really liked this movie a lot more than I thought. I was originally a bit apprehensive at first not knowing what to expect but this was excellently paced and directed. A lot of fun, a great drama piece. letterboxd.com/gabrialjames...

Longlegs (2024) dir. Osgood Perkins This one was visually a real treat and I dig the hell out of the vibes and overall themes here, but it doesn't quite do it for me as much as I want. Still a very good film though, just unfortunately not one of the best. letterboxd.com/film/longlegs/

Not to be mean but being a Bioware fan at this point is like losing chess to a dog that's asleep, doesn't have front paws, and is blind.

Challengers (2024) Dir. Luca Guadagnino Maybe the best movie of the year actually I'm ashamed I only just now saw it. This not getting a single nomination is genuinely a crime, everyone involved with this was at their best. Just phenomenal cinema. letterboxd.com/gabrialjames...

New happy campers stuff is recorded and coming out soon but if you haven't yet here's the Wicked ep (also some lets plays are up there now) youtu.be/E7w4LvUogkM

A Different Man (2024) Dir. Aaron Schimberg Could be described as The Substance for boys but there's genuinely so much more going on here. I love this movie, more people need to see it. Easily top 3 of the year. Fantastic stuff with an incredible hook and cast. letterboxd.com/film/a-diffe...

Women of the Hour (2023) Dir. Anna Kendrick Honestly a really good movie, easily missed in 2024 (which it finally had a wide release in). Fantastic directorial debut of Anna Kendrick, really tense and unnerving film. letterboxd.com/gabrialjames...

Going live with hazel and playing THE boy game www.twitch.tv/gabrialbjames

So close to being able to enable monetization and immediately nuke every upload

If you haven't seen it yet I put out a new video to end the year on my main channel Demenza's Gate. I have no real way to describe this project to a newcomer other than to say you'll either enjoy it or not, but just know I have an actual plan for it so hop on now so you can be cooler than your buds.

Still probably the best thing I will ever make youtu.be/Oj8YumT5UHo

Somehow despite the odds this turned around and now it's the most viewed in the channel. Still capped off at around 2k which is normal, pretty expected. Just a shame that it seems so slow to reach new eyes.

This might be the meanest thing I ever say but if you legitimately need to use AI to brainstorm video ideas I do not think you care about art or deserve to be platformed in any meaningful degree. Are we that beholden to creating consumable content that we cannot think or create for ourselves anymore

Thoughts about recent drop from the other slop site. Just putting it out there to be on the level. This is and always will be a very heart on my sleeve operation. For however long I can keep it going at least.

I worked really really hard on this and went through hell to get it uploaded. Please enjoy the second the last episode of the season. Praise me.

the time nears youtu.be/qfvPBV-Jm2Q

My ★★★★ review of Joker: Folie à Deux on Letterboxd boxd.it/88fdSr

I regret to inform you all but Joker 2 is in my top 5 of the year I think.

Can't have any fun on this bitch of an earth anymore smh

Bluesky still doesn't know what to put in my feed so now I am blasted with exclusively cat pics and I think that's great

Video news in like the next day or two regarding release date. Sooner than ya might think!

You

If you've ever thought to yourself "what if Bayonetta kind of sucked and also used guns like Shadow the Hedgehog" boy do I have a game for you

Forcing myself into sobriety atm while I change some things around and lemmie tell you, going through life without a haze of 4lokos and that devil's lettuce to end off the day sucks so far!
