AAA game devs love saying shit like "all our players are ignorant cretins and if we don't jingle keys and wipe their asses they will throw one heck of a tantrum" which feels like a self-fulfilling prophecy to me

By far our funniest Metroid revelation was learning that Nintendo always meant something completely different when they called Samus a bounty hunter

I see some people like "oh no it might be fine though!! Don't be a doomer!! Maybe it's just one segement!" over Metroid Prime 4, and like yeah sure but it's unreleased videogame. There is absolutely no reason or benefit for assuming an unreleased videogame will be good. 😌

Qualquer discurso em prol de uma sociedade individualista é insanidade.
O individualismo é antinatural.

As imagens de uma loja de celulares no Beco da Poeira recebendo 4 incubadoras com recém-nascidos dentro vai habitar pra sempre a minha mente.

It's a great cosmic joke that neurodivergence both runs in families and gets diagnosed based on parent reports. I was diagnosed at 30 because a man who has eaten potatoes every day for 57 years and a woman who collects loose buttons decided I was a perfectly normal child.

This week in Art I Am Obsessed With: this self-portrait by Suzanne Valadon. It looks so incredibly contemporary (I would literally wear that exact outfit on hot summer day) but it’s from 1923. Anyway, love a queen with flowy pants and a dangling cigarette!

I'll be honest: dunno that I'm willing to buy a "we HAVE to force tutorialization down players' throats" argument in a period where games like counterstrike, dota, minecraft, roblox et al are some of the most popular games in the world

friday soapbox: as a designer, if you want something to be a skillful action for players, and you want growth in this skill to be very deep/meaningful, then you need to also let players be bad at it. sometimes horrendously bad. players hate this pain, and designers often want to mitigate it away.

I've had an unexpected emergency come up and now I'm €700 short so any help is still appreciated 🙃
I kind of hate to do this but I got an unexpected late hospital bill AND I got paid 25% less on my last paycheck due to admin fuckups.
if anyone can spare a dollar or so that'd be grand. I'm short about €500 this month so anything will help :)
