anytime someone says "Dark Souls is western rpg made in japan" ask them which western rpg did soulslike gameplay before Demon's Souls and watch them squirm >inb4 Severance: Blade of Darkness plays nothing like Demon's Souls and even if it does, there is no direct lineage between SBoD and DeS

I once worked on a visual novel game where all the surveys and focus groups said that nobody wanted romance, they only wanted mystery and sci-fi. Then 75+% of clicks in-game went to stories with explicit romantic or sexy themes. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

trying to explain Severance imagine having to interact with so much mormonism that it makes the cissies get dysphoria

The sun shines from the east. Carnassial, a titanic fang piercing the heavens, its roots burrowing deep into the earth. A mountain of a tooth with a crown that lights the day. The other teeth that twinkle on the firmaments above as stars are gradually outshined by Carnassial as morning beckons.

Here's a distraction from tonight's doom scroll: The meta-first way. Or: How I learned to stop worrying about immersion and learned to love the metagame. What would happen if mechanics were triggered by the players and not the fiction at all? www.explorersdesign.com/the-meta-fir...

To play this Heroic RPG you need to start by creating a Heroic Character. First you choose a Heroic Ancestry and a Heroic Class. You get a set of Heroic Powers fueled by a pool of Heroic Resource, replenished only by finishing a Heroic Rest. Your Heroic Master can grant you Heroic Inspiration.

I just started dating @reneekeefe.bsky.social when Twin Peaks: The Return aired. I always watched it religiously every week. I'm sure she remembers that time when I refused to get dinner cause Twin Peaks was still on TV. The Return feels like the last worldwide TV event of all time.

You’ll probably see this screenshot floating around a lot but it really was wonderful to see Lynch put a scene in Twin Peaks: The Return where he has his character literally stare at the camera and say that you should either support trans people or die. I needed to hear that in 2017

Ursula K. LeGuin: "American science fiction has assumed a permanent hierarchy of superiors and inferiors, with rich, ambitious, aggressive males at the top, then a great gap, and then at the bottom the poor, the uneducated, the faceless masses, and all the women."

"it's good... for an rpg maker game" "the story is actually interesting... unlike other visual novels" please throw away your fear of liking something. it's okay to like a medium unironically. it will make you happier as a person when you stop belittling the things you like 💜

The addendum to all that is you should also be broadly familiar with other tabletop games in order to make sure you’re not trying to reinvent the solution to a problem some random boardgame about trading in the Mediterranean figured out in 2009.

It's "video game history is too USA-centric" discourse, so let me post four stills from SE Asia games in case they might arouse the curiosity of any inquisitive foreigner.

🚨USEFUL BLOGPOST ALERT🚨 I make Southeast Asian things for an audience not generally familiar with the region. So the issue @mindstorm.bsky.social outlines is ever on my mind. "How do I lessen the mental load of understanding?" Good thing that addressing this is pretty rewarding, artistically! 1/

Merry Xmas! 🎄🎁✨ In 2011 we joined #LudumDare22 and "Saint Lino" was made. As we wanted to wrap it for Xmas (which we couldn't 😅), stages, story, and ending was added. While it looks casual, it's actually quite experimental, hopefully it's fun and vibin'! 🔗 stellarnull.itch.io/late-lino #gamedev
