Teacher. KFBF. Fan of Marvel, Star Wars, video games, comics, and things of that nature.
A while back I decided to read all the Marvel comics in order.

I only have a handful left to finish out 1982, but according to my comic tracker, I’ve now read over 4,000 marvel comics. Absolutely wild.

Last @gamesandnotgames.com episode me and @isaiahsmith.dev talked about upcoming games we are scared of (being mid, bad, or too long etc).

In that we named Winter Burrow and Metroid Prime 4. That’s all I gotta say.

NEW: the new game Dispatch is a huge hit (1 million copies!). But few people know how close it came to never existing.

Here's the wild story, from a canceled Splinter Cell game (scoop!) to a Telltale divorce to the founders not taking paychecks for six months: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
The Turbulent, Seven-Year Saga Behind Hit Game ‘Dispatch’
The narrative, superhero game starring Aaron Paul of ‘Breaking Bad’ sold 1 million copies in the 10 days following its Oct. 22 release

My take on the Metroid thing is that people online seem to be overreacting to something that can theoretically be fixed by turning down the volume.

You know how in Pokémon Go, if you get an excellent throw, it will count for "Make a Great Throw" achievements?

They should do the same thing for Team Rocket. I have 7 different missions wanting me to beat grunts, but almost every time I find a Rocket stop, it's an admin and doesn't count.

I know it's been a bit of an insane year for gaming, but I really hope Dispatch wins some awards. They deserve it.

We have this man so many opportunities to prove us wrong and he inevitably disappoints us again and again. The decision below proves that he doesn't care about people. He cares about profits.

The price of tickets, the sponsorships, the amount folks pay for trailers, features and more... So yeah
Apparently, Keighley doesn't have time to reply to @alyssamerc.bsky.social's request for comment, but he sure does have time to post about his latest business deal surrounding the awards on LinkedIn.

Idk.. There's something making me want to skip out on watching this year and it rhymes with Zeff Peely.
The Game Awards will stream on Prime Video this year.

The event will happen on December 11 & will also be available on other platforms including YouTube.

Geoff Keighley really is the perfect representative of the gaming industry:
-unreservedly self serving
-pretends to care about the people actually making the product
-loves to make performative gestures that ultimately go nowhere and help no one
-would almost certainly sell out to the saudis

Y'all, we're less than 24 hours away from the end of Dispatch.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

This man speaks for the people!
Hmm.

I think Pokemon Z-A moving you up to Rank F is bad design.

It feels bad! It feels like the game is going "Hey, we know this premise sucks, and we don't want to do it either, so we're just cutting out half."

It basically feels like thee game is doing this to you:
