Every time I open social media these days my timeline is full of everyone talking about how bad this one guy I've never heard of before is and how they've always hated him for it and I just think that's kinda weird???

Like I get I'm not that in tune with discourse or politics, but I can't imagine that everyone posting about these people were intimately familiar with them BEFORE everyone else started posting about them too???

I originally made this edit about Twitter, but honestly I think it might actually apply to Bluesky too (but for slightly different reasons)

the "you can't avoid AI, it's in all software now" argument might be true for infrastructure, where we have limited agency over the platforms and systems that make up our society, but is hilariously untrue for video games, a completely optional and easily ignored part of all of our lives

Our collab piece for the Bravely Default sketch compilation. Initially I and garmmy picked our favorite characters + favorite jobs to have them dressed up with. It's a lot of fun revisiting the old concept arts from the old official guidebook🤭 Free to download here: garmmy.itch.io/from-the-lan...

But don't worry, this problem can be avoided if you just give them your government ID

You can pay for this with a credit card, but don't dare think of commissioning art of consenting adults having fun sexually, credit card companies (and PayPal) will de-bank you. Our systems are so screwed up. :/

GTA 6 has received a rating of PEGI 18, revealing mentions of "decapitation," the ability for players to snort cocaine at any time, "scenes of sexual fetishes," and much more.

finally started higurashi and i didn't realise that the plot starts because the protagonist used the wrong personality with the wrong friend group im amazed I haven't seen more people talk about that

Something a little less talked about with Wii U failure is how iterative and soon the major games were Mario Wii - Mario U = 3 years 3D Land - 3D World = 2 years Mario Kart 7 - Mario Kart 8 = 3 years DK Returns - Tropical Freeze = 4 years Most normal people were like "I already played this game"

"There are so many L.A. noirs..."

Oren Uziel says ‘SPIDER-NOIR’ Season 2 would’ve seen Ben Reilly in a new location. “There are so many L.A. noirs... European noirs we could have dove into... You’re starting in 1933... It’s heading toward... World War II. There’s a lot of storytelling that could have happened there.” (via Variety)

ngl i kinda wish i made the most of what the internet was like 7 years ago, cuz right now it feels like everything sucks and there either a lot more competition or a lot more toxicity surrounding the cool things i wanna be able to do

As others have pointed out, "ai assisted translation" is just an excuse to underpay translators who are just going to have to rewrite most of the ai generated slop anyways

when video game art direction and graphics discussion up i get the sense i got low standards bc im pretty much delighted by nearly everything i particularly like it when it doesnt quite line up with my own personal preferences. its like, "oh! so this is what you wanted to show me!" and its neat

ootr looks good but young link looks really shiny and the lighting looks a little flat in places and that makes me sad :( Other than that though, it looks a lot better than I thought it would, the only thing that limits my enthusiasm is that it's a game I'm already very familiar with
