Don't just listen to players. If given the option, they'll optimize the game out of their games, and the story out of their stories. It's our job to filter information and data and feedback into good work, and while we'll sometimes miss it's better than blindly following surveys.

I do! And have even written about the possibility! There’s hope that we could get the best decade of video game history once everything completely breaks down. www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/summe...

OpenAI isn't on the path to becoming a for profit company! They spent $9 billion to lose $5 billion last year! And if you think Sam Altman is some virtuous guy being pushed around by venture capitalists you are a god damn mark, holy shit

Showing my parents Nosferatu (2024) and I think Nicholas Hoult is the best version of Jonathan Harker for the simple reason that he perfectly plays the normie guy in way over his head who loves his girl soooooo much, a role that can be very boring if you don’t give it to an actor as weird as Hoult

Smiling Friends' POTUS episode-ass clip

“Young People Don’t Want Sex And Romance In Their Games” and the top 10 up and coming Steam games are stuff like anime dating sims about a werewolf woman that has sex with people and eats them.

No falla el CinemaScore como termómetro/predicción de caída.

Nobody knows what they’re doing, it’s not just you.

get paid for your work. back up your clips often. within reason, say "fuck it" and apply it to whatever it is you're doing. time will pass and you *will* regret wasting evenings and weekends. sometimes it can't be helped. but try to stop to smell the roses. you and your writing will be better for it

Just told my 10yo daughter about Adolf Hitler. She had tears in her eyes. And then she did the Wakanda pose and said "#Hitlerkanda forever"—which is the sort of pop culture cross-over I can celebrate.

hmmm champions al ajillo...

Maybe this is partially wishful thinking but I think Trump is engineering a major disaster for himself in the Pentagon

For all its faults (unrelated to the stellar writing), it's a genuinely compelling work for reasons like this one. I was paying too much attention to the colonialist and religious angles, so this somehow flew over my head, but yeah. Gio's on the money.

La cosa se pone seria.

So patronizing when the dentist patiently explains how to floss. I'm not a baby who doesn't know how to do basic things. I'm a baby who doesn't wanna

Lo peor que ha traído el fascismo: Genocidios, guerras, pobreza y opresión. Lo peor que ha traído la cultura woke: tapones de plástico pegados a la botella. Como veis aquí no hay ni buenos ni malos. Cada bando tiene su parte de culpa.

Now fully on board with Severance S2 because it's been gradually spending less time going "oh wow offices sure are unsettling spaces, capitalism scary" in a loop and actually getting interpersonal drama going and making weird shit happen outside its central setting.

Helly #severance #art

so Aftermath's primary business model is just radicalising it's audience against other outlets huh?

The main reason why Marvel Rivals is shitting on OW2 so far is that S1 has added 4 new characters and we're already looking at the next one. The content drip is just blazing fast compared to whatever the hell happened at Blizzard after launching one of the potentially biggest games of the century.

Marvel Rivals’ Blade addition appears imminent

Quantic Dream being in danger of closure because its parent group sucks ass is like the 145th obstacle Star Wars Eclipse has to evade in order to ever come out. That game is so cooked, man.

Retweeting myself

Doing this today and tomorrow btw twitch.tv/obsidian

I’m really enjoying Avowed so far. I would say my favourite part is the ability to shoot a wizard in the head with a rifle from 250 feet away.

100% and I need everyone to understand right now that there is only one solution: people need to start getting their asses kicked in public again
