oh this sounds dire
yakuza kiwami 3 is an insult to the game rgg has purported to remake, its players, the studio's previous quality output and, bewilderingly, women. oh, and the casting of an admitted sex pest. i'm somewhere between dejection and fury.

Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties review: How not to do a remake | VGC
Sega delivers a disappointing remake built on disdain, not reverence, looking to fix a game that wasn’t broken…

if you, like me, are a Twin Peaks person, you should watch the BBC Life on Mars. (without paying BBC, preferably.)

The notion that Kingdom Hearts “takes itself too seriously” sucks because it absolutely knows it’s an absurd premise, it just carries itself with so much sincerity that people confuse it for being guileless
(unsure of how serious I'm being) is the fact that Kingdom Hearts is queer-coded responsible for the failure of gaming publications to adequately cover its importance in the genre of action RPGs that were culminated in popular consciousness with games like Elden Ring

Glad the Guardian is bringing this issue to the mainstream. People say all the time, "well, my audience is on Substack, so I can't leave." Your audience is funding a platform that Neo-Nazis make money on. No other major site allows this shit.

To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books.
She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it.
It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.
