Haven't been able to get Soup Magneto out of my head for days

Hey all, my partner Pamela has really had a rough time of things lately. Yesterday she was rushed to the hospital for an unexpected surgery. It went well, but she's jobless and unable to seek work for multiple weeks while laid up in bed. Any bit helps. gofund.me/d2a776b22

Unfortunately, the death knell for "Search Action" was the release of "Librarian: Tidy up the Arcane Library." There's now about 8000 games on steam where the action is searching through piles.

the most common gaming take that bums me out the most is that timers are basically the most universally depsised mechanic by 95% of the audience. been a true believer since dead rising and the fire has only grown playing shenmue and lightning returns etc

Couldn't sleep until I finished The Incident At Galley House tonight. Ended up staying up way too late. Totally worth it. Fantastic game. If you've any appreciation for investigation mysteries like Return of the Obra Dinn or Case of the Golden Idol, you NEED to play this one next. Go in blind.

I'll straight up listen to elevator music in a house and house music in an elevator. I really don't give a shit anymore.

When you hit the enemy with a move that sends them flying but they're behind you, so you both get pushed corner to corner and then continue the combo

Im working on a video about the concept of The Skill Floor. Can you think of a time when a developer attempted to lower the Skill Floor that either achieved their goals, or went terribly wrong? If you don't mind the possibility of your comment appearing in the video, reply below!

My thesis on game balance is about to cross 50k views, and if you include reactor's versions (reactions are welcome!), the video has reached over 300k people! While work on future videos is happening, its slow going. I appreciate your support. youtu.be/uCPQGncOx-Q

eating in mexico as a european has gotta be like hearing music for the first time

Paid a ton for an Uber that went off the suggested route and made me so late for my appointment that I have to reschedule for over two weeks from now. Wasn't paying enough attention so I'm not sure if he was just trying to outsmart the GPS or what.

I respect anti-guest character takes made from a franchise purity PoV but I do NOT respect anti-guest character takes from "where's my blorbo" PoVs, sorry.

I want to improve my camera for my youtube videos. Any recommendations out there? Keeping the budget low is nice but I'm open to looking at various options.

They are seriously fucking with Jack Quaid getting him to mocap a cube.

Today, I signed an Executive Order temporarily repealing bedtimes in the City of New York so that kids of all ages can watch our team in the NBA Finals. As Mayor, you’re forced to make many difficult decisions. This was not one of them. Go Knicks.

Multiple times this weekend I've told people "feel free to get ready, just don't start your match until you're signaled" and then I give the signal and they start button checking. The NRS brain must be studied

So it seems like there's a really really important bug in the pc version of MKX if two players want to use different control setups. And somehow we went through a whole tournament without running into it... Until top 8.

Combo Breaker orgy doesn't have on-site registration #bullshit

Two types of roguelikes

Gonna get high and cry about the fact that my cats don't know what an ocean is

Casino scene in Mario galaxy is unironically peak, I'm afraid.

toby fox exists in a special kind of hell i will call “the mcelroy zone” where a huge number of people latched onto his work when they were teenagers and every misstep of his is the end of their world
