Happy to have another excuse to write about Final Fantasy 11, which recently broke in the exact right way to force its Games Masters into doing something extremely funny:
After a server glitch, Final Fantasy 11 is dispatching Game Masters to manually assassinate bugged monsters just so the game knows they're really dead: 'God personally stepping in to correct the world...
Sometimes there's only one way to be sure.

I don't think it's hyperbole to say that I, and a lot of other designers of that gen, wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for Chris.
The Wretched kept us company in a pandemic. It inspired dozens of designers to make their first game.

Hello. It's my final week as a full time game designer, and as if to underline why I can't do this anymore, I currently can't afford to cover my bills at the end of the month.

Your favorite character is in the grand finals of a big tournament against your most hated character. They will die in game canon if they lose.

I used to sing this song while walking almost 20 years ago now. Haven't heard it in decades, ya'll. I forgot how devastating the ending verse is. Feels like the twist in an good drama film. Underrated band.

Not that controversial of a take. But even a lot of the comments supportive of this POV are ignorant and detached. If the go-to for this is "yeah, there are school shooter drills" or such, you're hitting WAY off the mark. (Hint: Lotta kids grow up around deaths & violence *even in the rich West*.)
Your white adjacent / white kids can absolutely handle hearing about what is happening.
There are children their age going through it. Separated from their families.
They need to understand now, so they grow up knowing.
Ignorant kids create ignorant adults.

Life is so infuriatingly fucking pointless man. I just got into a nasty argument with my mother about it and she's like " I can help " and for what? The only outcome for someone like me is to just move out and repeat what I'm doing in her house, but now with rent and LESS people to talk too.
