God damn, in a world being over run with GenAI, 2026 might be one of the best runs for the mediums of Movies, Games, and Television. Multiple all timers added to the list this year alone. I will look back at this year decades from now.

R/ClassicWow is raging about a chicken mount with polygons that might come into Forever... Gah I hope we don't end up with terrible texture resolution and painted on tube skirts for another 20 years in Warcraft Forever.

WoW Forever seemed like the perfect game style for me, but I just know the Blizzard devs are listening to Asmon tier chuds over on r/classicwow about stuff like the art direction and we will just end up with a vile, social hell hole stuck in SD graphics all over again.

We’re incredibly grateful for your support since the launch of STAR WARS Zero Company. Here’s a message from our CEO:

I love wow forever, the slow methodical gameplay, being on foot feeling like travel matters. What I am conflicted on is how disjointed art is, I really want up res'd, high definition models for everything including weapons and armor + all the trading post transmogs I spent time earning in Retail

I want all my transmog items like the basic tabards, chainmail tabard, scarves, prowlers hood, or Crusader's Zweihander so bad to make low fantasy transmogs that fit the journey of WoW Forever because fashion is so important to me and I can't stand the old item models in Warcraft anymore.

Brother, the Riot MMO is missing its window with WoW on a comeback tour, Guild Wars 3 and Runescape 4 on the horizon, and the evergreen mmos thriving. What is Riot doing over there.

This is my dream end goal look for WoW Forever, imagine my Undead Paladin looking like this Blizzard. Leonkric Pendraghast will exist like this surely dang it #wowforever

Holy fuck, Castlevanina might be my goty if the rest holds up, that demo absolute rips and tears. The music and art are freakin bangers.

the more I play WoW Forever the more I just really want Blizzard to clamp down on the Iconic Classic artstyle, the skyborne weapons, druid forms, etc just dont fit at all and its taking me out of it so bad.

If there is one big thing I would give feedback to WoW Forever devs on, its picking a direction for the art and going all in on thay instead of this weird tug of war between both.

Skybornes biggest sin, making WoW/Warcraft Forevers vibes rancid before the game has even released. They should've just given into the 20 year request for High Elves man.

Man, people are suggesting Darkfallen/Forsaken Elves and High Elves in WoW Forever to solve the issue instead of these weird, absolutely out of nowhere Al'akir Skyborne Elves and I am so disappointed thats not what we are getting instead... the biggest damper on my otherwise excited mood.

So let me get this right, they made a game about one of the most brutal, adult Marvel Superheroes Wolverine and made it the most baby, handhold-y game they have ever made before... Thanks Insomniac, real uncool.

Man, Tel-rea is so cool in Zero Company, I hope she makes a cameo or something in the next Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor trilogy game. Also I hope her race is playable in Fate of the Old Republic or something. #starwars #zerocompany

2xko died before I got Riven, sigh. I will say, all I want is a fun game to play in Runeterra that isnt a competitive meat grinder, because thats all they seem to do these days with the world.

People are speculating if Elderscrolls 6 is going to be tagged Sentinel and all I can think of is how god damn unimaginative that is. It doesn't inspire a single creative thought in my head like Hammerfell, Skyrim, Oblivion, or Morrowind does.

@marveltokon.bsky.social Now that Tokon is out, I thought I would drop one last request list for their consideration, a list of evil/seen as evil women options, since we need like 3x the women now that its 16 men to 6 women. Mutina, Enchantress, Lilith, Death #marveltokon #fightingsouls

Oh man, easily my favorite of the Tom Holland Spider-mans, which isn't hard to do because I found the first 3 so-so... but this was probably also my favorite Spider-man move period.

@en.finalfantasyxiv.com I am begging you all, please apply that Beastmaster Crucible philosophy to deep dungeons, it would fit SO WELL. Imagine picking different paths with different floor modifiers, shops, minibosses, increased rewards, every 10th floor having a variable boss #ffxiv #EUFanfest

I hope the ff7 "crossover" does what Eden did for the first and is just light references and not just a big circle jerk over ff7 in ff14 Eden gave us Gaia and Ryne, more Ascian lore, and expanded upon the Empty. #ff14 #evercold #EUFanfest

Sony's over reliance on faulty PSN accounts when they are such a hit or miss crapshoot is why we can't have nice things anymore. I was so excited for Tokon, this is not a great first impression damn.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

FWIW I think it's a little strange that "Arkane's Blade is late and over budget" is becoming a lingering news story when the total number of big video games that were *not* late and over budget could be counted on one hand

I hope to hope Arkane's Blade comes out and sells gangbusters for whoever buys them or if the go independent, so that they can stay afloat even with the Marvel license costs and without Xbox's funding. Maybe a PS5 release is possible now to help that.

Even now there's misinformation floating around, so let me make this clear: Xbox is cutting 3,200 jobs, or 20% of the organization. 1,600 jobs will be eliminated today, and then another 1,600 (including the studio divestments) in the next 12 months. Full story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

bloomberg.comMicrosoft’s Xbox to Cut 3,200 Jobs, Divest Five Studios in Major OverhaulCompulsion and Double Fine studios will become independent; Undead Labs and Ninja Theory will be sold. Xbox will also look to sell or spin out Arkane Studios.

Adding another dlc wish to the @marveltokon.bsky.social fantasy blog pile White Fox inspired by Guilty Gear Strives Giovanna and her Marvel Rival's Suit design, I can already see the potential... maybe in my dreams. I just need more Giovanna style fighters in my life.

I know people love Matt Murdock's Daredevil... but god I really want Elektra Daredevil for Marvel's Tokon, just look how god damn sick she looks here.
