Great chance for people to finally check Dark Messiah! store.steampowered.com/app/5016100/... It's a bit messy but it's Arkane setting the blueprint to a lot of what people love in Dishonored. Some battles and set pieces still feel cutting-edge, even 20 years later.

It genuinely feels like Arkane studios might be the last bastion of the western AAA games industry. The fact that they've survived Microsoft's blatant siege on their studio for so long is insane (though not without losses). Without Arkane, I genuinely don't know what's left? Just glorified gambling.

Fascists don’t love big fantasy and science fiction because they find them artistically resonant or whatever. They like them because other people find them impressive. You’re thinking too hard.

New DoW trailer is great because Johnathan Keeble can't help pronouncing it "Lion L. Johnson", which is closer to Lionel Johnson than GW probably wants. Genuinely one of the funniest retcons of all time. Trust me bro. "Lion" is named for his beastial strength. Nothing to do with gay English poets!

You expect me to believe Lion El'Johnson's chapter, the Dark Angels, who work in the shadows to track down, destroy, and censor any evidence of their chapter's "Terrible Secret" (sometimes working against their own interests in the process) are a metaphor for being a closeted gay man? Sounds fake.

Started playing Disco Elysium. Hooooly crap this rules. Not very far in, but it feels like this game loves art and people so so much. It's also DEEPLY, TRAGICALLY funny, both in terms of writing and the real world bullshit that happened post-release.

Holy crap! I finally managed to make a somewhat usable temporary website using carrd. It's not perfect and still very unfinished, but it exists, and that's a start. Should have it up and running alongside a commission sheet within the next couple of days.

"I keep having this... dream. I'm just staring into the black, between the stars. There's something there. I know there is. I just can't see it... but it sees me. I can feel it... hate us. I know you know what I'm talking about. Or you will soon." #art #illustration #prey2017 #arkane

40k lore when sources when I need to know why the sponsons on one variant of the Leman Russ battle tank are 3cm lower than on another variant of the same tank VS 40k lore sources when I need to know what an eldar spaceship looks like on the inside

Like I know the answer is probably that its just an off-white room with wraithbone gaming chairs where they sit and meditate at the computer... But that's so much less interesting than like... Idk a command console with a ship's wheel? A laser harp? A crystal ball? One of those zen sand gardens?

this is a 10/10 character sheet holy shit

Birfday! 🎂 I'm 29 today. Almost 3 decades. I'd be lying if I said I was happy with where I am in life. But it's nice to finally feel like I want to live to to see 30 after spending most of my twenties wishing I wasn't alive.

I’ve spent plenty of time in deep thought about the last two years, career-wise, and felt that a change needs to happen. For those of you not in the loop, I lost my full-time position at GINX TV in January 2025 and have been #freelancing since. I had given freelancing a chance to dispel...

The end of an era. After more than three & a half years, my time at GINX TV comes to an end. I’m pretty dissatisfied with how most of the editorial team has been let go, and the absurd pivot to iGaming is evident on the site. Trust me, check out the site to see the shift to iGaming content.

Since 1948 the apartheid state of Israel has subjected Palestinians to systematic murder, sexual violence, torture, starvation, and ethnic cleansing, perpetuating centuries of Euro-American settler-colonialism. In Gaza this has escalated catastrophically since 2023. This is genocide. Free Palestine.

It’s always #FreePalestine not just today but every single day since 1947
