When making Psychonauts, Tim Schafer was on Friendster so much it distracted him from writing, so he made Friendster accounts for the camper characters as a writing exercise, but when Friendster went down, Double Fine made a site called Campster to recreate the accounts, but it shut down in 2020
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago
so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

Final Fantasy 10-2 is a really moving exploration of what it means to live in a world where the future is guaranteed but unknown. It was wonderful to get to play a sequel that didn’t want to rehash the previous game, but actually explore how the characters and world would move on

Just played and beat Sin and Punishment 1 for the first time and that was one of the coolest and most fun games I have ever played

Took me too long to buy volumes of Hunter x Hunter but I’m very glad I did. It’s my favorite comic and I fell in love with it when I borrowed the volumes from my library so it’s nice to have my own copies, especially to be able to look at a physical copy of Togashi’s art close up whenever I want

Been playing FF 10-2 and whenever they say Vegnagun, my mind keeps understanding it as Vengabus

Started HRT today and I still can’t believe it! I’ve known I’m trans for 11 years and have been wanting to take it for 10 years but the world and my self doubt made me too scared to do it but I finally have and I’m really excited!

Forgot about the 2-in-1 rerelease of Nana they’re doing for the anniversary so when I saw it in the store today I grabbed it immediately. I know this series will be my shit so I’m excited to finally read it

Finished reading John Byrne’s Fantastic Four run and that was a great follow up to the Kirby/Lee run (even if there was 11 years between them). He really understood the FF, portraying them with nuance and really developing them (especially Sue), and wrote some stories and moments I won’t forget.

Reminder for anything Microsoft has announced in the last week (including Microsoft-owned studios), that they are still on the BDS list. bdsmovement.net/microsoft
Microsoft
Microsoft is perhaps the most complicit tech company in Israel’s illegal apartheid regime and ongoing genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza.

I’m reading the first run of The Thing solo comic and there’s a silly and fun issue that I really enjoyed but at the end they do this which makes it even better

Started playing the Bubsy 4D demo and damn this is fun! I really like how the moveset lets you easily get past everything cause it lets you clear all the challenges the way you want and it means you need to be good at using it to skip sections if you want to clear the time trial

Someone on a discord server posted a meme about DBZ and seeing Dr Gero and Android 19 for the first time in years was wild, I forgot Toriyama went so fucking hard on their designs

I’m up too late and thinking too much about how the core of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is being a celebration of humanity and exploring how people can rise against the struggles in their lives. It’s such a wonderful affirmation of life and the journey it takes us on

Very nice to see Dorohedoro’s next season get a release window as I start collecting the volumes and becoming obsessed with it again

Finished walking a playthrough of Xenosaga Pied Piper and god does it tell a great story. I really liked Xenosaga 1 but it’s just an introduction to everything the series wants to cover, so getting the tragedy of Ziggy’s backstory while fleshing out the setting and doing it this well is impressive

Xenosaga Ep 1 is a pretty good game. I really like the slow pace, and even tho it’s clear it’s only half of the story they wanted to tell, I think they still do a good job at making this an engaging story, especially that ending

It’s weird when Revolutionary Girl Utena is treated as an influential and important show that is ultimately too messy and abstract to deserve of love and acclaim it has, it’s a very limiting way to view the show and its execution of its story and message

One Battle After Another is such a wonderful film. So nice to see something so lovingly crafted about our current world that acknowledges our struggles while also focusing on the ways we fight it on both the micro and macro

Golden Kamuy is gayer than MGS and JoJo’s combined and I think it should be celebrated for that
