A life is but a branch, yearning for a direction, often the sun, where it has the most chance of survival.

Some don't however, oddly enough. Unfortunately my leaves had a firmware update and don't eat the sun the same way.
I've been playing Black Tabby Games' Scarlet Hollow, and man they just nail immersion so hard. While the ambience of the various scenes are pretty well done, one in particular sticks to my mind, and it's the sound of silence.

See, most people just assume that "silence" just means not putting any--

Ever since, we've wanted to capture the ephemeral images in our mind, from cave paintings to today's modern AAA video games back to cave paintings but with lead and paper.

Some did it out of logistical necessity.
Some did it out of captivation.
Some did it out of ____whatever reason you can put.

Hades is what League of Legends singleplayer looks like if Arena turned from death match to level-based boss progression.

And instead of buying items, you just get given them as a little treat after every stage.

Would you prefer to become your vtuber or simply remain as yourself, with the vtuber like a suit you put on?

It was just an innocent, "how about we make a dating sim?"
How hard could that be to make???

I wanna make BOTW 2 by incorporating TOTK's elements but instead of that mess, I'll be copying KOTOR's changing from straightforward Campbell into subversive change. and questioning the dynamic between the darkness and the light.

After seeing this, I think it finally clicked for me.
Esoteric Ebb looks like it understands what Disco Elysium is all about: a conversation with yourself.

Every RPG is, in a sense. A conversation with others to move the story forward.

I've been slowly realizing how much math, music, and programming are pretty much actual wizardry it's insane

I only have a little specced in art magic and I'm but a lowly apprentice at that

If only people actually wore hats and robes and made it aesthetically mystical it'd be more appealing

Space Marines is just Western Wuxia with the power leveling

It's always sad seeing AAA games aiming to deliver (admittedly) impressive tech that'll get pretty dated as the years go by vs delivering refined and compelling gameplay that'll stand the test of time

But I guess that's what indies are for now
Job listings for the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 have revealed that CD Projekt Red is aiming to deliver ‘the most realistic crowds ever seen in a video game’.
