Dear good people, if you rant against Musk for doing a Nazi salute, and you should, you can’t remain silent when things like this happen or you don’t care about antisemitism, only politics.

Is real Osaka not cyberpunk enough for ya? 🫵

Fed up with only finding metroids in your vanias, and instead want to uncover the truth of a forgotten past?

My original article on Castlevania: SOTN's original English translation is up at @polygon.com!

Based partly on an epic zoom interview I did with Jeremy Blaustein, who is still living & translating in Japan.

By the way, a thing to celebrate:

David Corenswet’s the first Jewish actor to play Superman

Feels monumental, especially because the character was created by Jewish immigrants

Ok, here's an interview from last month where Jeremy Blaustein literally says he's a David Lynch fan and used lines from his films for his localization of Metal Gear Solid.

One of the very first games @hirokoyoda.bsky.social
and I worked on, under team leader @jblaustein.bsky.social
(now of @dragonbaby.bsky.social). I recall all of us getting so little dev support that Hiroko and I had to enlist a local Chinese restaurant to help us decipher some in-game terms.

Despite a lack of R’lyehian linguists it helped that @dragonbaby.bsky.social adheres to non-Euclidean logic and is drawn to the worship of Great Old Ones anyway…💦

#worldofhorror #恐怖の世界
After many whole years WORLD OF HORROR finally releases on Steam today! 😱

I'm so so so proud to have led the @dragonbaby.bsky.social team in localizing this 1Bit Lovecraft x Junji Ito spinetingler and making our 世界 just a smidge more 恐怖.
