Totally unnecessary and not narratively or thematically necessary skating mechanics. I think it’s awesome that there’s a skateboard in kingdom hearts 2. It’s so not useful nor can you access it most of the game. It’s great. Jak 2/3 having a relatively robust tricks system was good too. Put me in

It is increasingly clear that there is a crisis of trust in legacy media, five-alarm fire stuff. It is bad for any news outlet to have a reputation that wards off people it should be talking to, and the wary are growing in number

"45% more affordable (starting at $649)".
My immediate reaction is that this point is at best only partially accurate, and at worst willfully dishonest.
Previously, the Expo Floor Pass was all you needed to get in the door. For GDC 2025, it was $249.

it's better to think of the useless centrist 'expand the tent but only rightwards' media people & politicians as blockers paid to occupy space that could otherwise be utilized productively by a serious person. their opinions are pre-approved by their donors and will never change

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing.
These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.

Somewhat hilariously, YouTube's restricted mode hides my most recent video on reading game guides, but DOESN'T hide my video on the Nuremberg Trials.
My major takeaway is DON'T SELF-CENSOR YOUR OWN WRITING. You don't know what will or will not be restricted!! Do not comply in advance!!!

"3 devs with support from a few contractors"
I counted 110 people or companies in Silksong's credits.
And that's just those credited. We all know not everyone gets credited. Especially when it's just a company name listed in lieu of credits.
So tired of this faux rags-to-riches narrative.
