Don't wanna do this but as I've been struggling to find work, I really need some help. I'm trying to save up for an important trip for a family wedding im March but with no paid work coming my way, any help would be grateful. No pressure if you can't but please share. ko-fi.com/valkian24/go...

Man, Austin Wintory's composition would have been wonderful in ME 5 if EA didn't can it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBO8...

As of right now, Wildwood is placed at #6 on my films I've watched in 2026 list on @letterboxd.social. Just above No Other Choice and below Camp Miasma. letterboxd.com/valkian24/li...

Unfortunately, I've been hit pretty bad in the financial sense. I really don't want to do this but if anyone out there is willing to help me get through the next few weeks, I'd really appreciate it. (No need to if you can't, I understand) ko-fi.com/valkian24

Just saw Wildwood and it was superb! The first act was a bit of a weak beginning for me but the rest of the film was much stronger to the end. Go see it immediately! (Just don't bring younger children with you as it can be quite dark at times)

HAPPY (belated) BIRTHDAY to MARIA! CHEERS & thank you all so much for the love each year! I am planning to have many more updates very soon considering the sudden shift/loss of work.Your support is a huge help for our family. Now to figure shit out. Much love. D. #SpaceMaria1023

reminder that you don't have to be productive every second of the day. sometimes existing is enough. 🤍

This is literally the equivalent of an art piece that was traced over by a hack being beaten out by a child's drawing that you'd see on a fridge. This is so ironic, it's beautiful because at least with a child's drawing, it's way more sincere.

Half-assed ports on a game-key card... No thanks.

The one thing I hate about people who use discord is when they have to post comments on a particular topic when there are appropriate channels in the server for them. But instead of posting on there, they just post it in general cause they're too lazy to check or ask before posting.

While it's been a decade since the release of DOOM, its face-melting metal soundtrack continues to rip and tear through speakers. 🔥 We sat down with legendary Aussie composer, Mick Gordon, to find out about his inspirations and process behind gaming's heaviest music. youtu.be/y8Bn8RBaJJg?...

As much as I would like to believe that, EA has a history of never selling their IPs. Maybe licensing them out but very rarely and not for the best (ie. Command & Conquer: Rivals on mobile) www.ign.com/articles/for...

Masahiro Sakurai says that as AI leads to even more clones and imitations appearing on Steam, the role of developers who continue to create brand new ideas will become increasingly important. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/masahir...

Part body horror and part supervillain origin story, Clayface is an unsettling new entry in the DCU that explores the fall from grace of a lesser-known Batman villain. Find out how its unsightly scenes leave viewers unable to tear their face away from the screen: www.qualbert.com/reviews/clay...

Thinking about how we could have seen Matriarch Liara

Even though I knew it was coming, it still hurts to hear this after waking up. Mass Effect meant a lot to me when I played it during the X360 days. So. It's sad to see this sbd their other works fade into existence with our memories to hold them. RIP Bioware 💔
