I've seen these remakes have a million combat-focused hard mode settings to mess with, which is fun and all ... but what I really want is a "I have to write notes down" exploration hard mode :p

The HD-2D remakes of Dragon Quest might modernize these ancient RPGs, but could anything recreate the experience of playing them on the NES? www.avclub.com/dragon-quest...

So many people in the early 2010s mad that SpongeBob switched from a shonen to a seinen. The “Squidward Torture Porns” you hate so much are just the truth of how the world works. Read Naoki Urasawa’s Monster and watch as much How To Be Like Johan Liebert videos as I have and you’ll understand.

btw when people talk about Steam being a monopoly, this is what they mean: If your game is not on Steam nowadays, it does not exist. Sure, there's Itch, GOG, EGS, Microsoft Store... but if your livelihood depends on your game sales, you can't get enough sales from them, you need to be on Steam
Really wild situation here: a celebrated and well-regarded indie dev and publisher is facing shutdown because Valve banned their game from Steam and won't talk to them about it, at all.

this is insane both on its face and with several more insane details once you read the full thing
Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

Again, I'll say: if you've never played a Mystery Dungeon or you've only played spinoffs like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, there's never been a better, more content and QOL feature-rich Shiren game to start than 6/Serpentcoil. $20 for the base game alone is a steal for all the dungeons it comes with.

this is particularly interesting in the modern age where staunch adherence to genre consensus seems to be more emphasized than ever by both publishers and players alike
Kirby Air Riders is a fascinating litmus test re: whether or not you are insulted or delighted by Legacy Skill At Kart Racers being utterly pointless in a new video game

i watched the tatsuki fujimoto shorts compilation anime recently. like 3/4ths of this guys early works were about in-universe mixed race couples and fictional racism. i can't tell if this guy dated a foreign girl once or if he just have a purely aesthetic and hypothetical interest in the topic

In Blazblue, the character Platinum the Trinity has a jab where they do either rock, paper or scissors
This makes no difference in almost all situations EXCEPT when they are fighting another Platinum. If they both jab each other at the same time, the "winner" gets the hit
