I would like to bring over my theory for solving America’s deadly roads. I call it the “Gay Truck Rule” and it would save thousands of lives every year.

I don’t make the rules, but if your game has a campfire scene in it it’s automatically a classic.

Fair enough. Not technically humans either if you drill down on it.

Interesting take. I enjoyed it for what it was, just kinda zoned out and listened to a podcast while crystal hunting. I thought it felt more like Hyrule Field in OoT; a big, mostly empty hub with some secrets scattered around which leads to the areas where the big dungeons can be found.

The only way that could be any better is if you could push a button and play the music.

As for QotW, Metroid is my favorite series, & it's hard choosing a single memory as the best. But the very end of Dread when Samus equips the final suit is a standout. I'm being deliberately vague to avoid spoilers, but you feel super powerful after hours of- not that. It's a very satisfying ending.

I never thought about it, but Ridley and Sauron have a lot in common.

Plutocrats used to build public works as part of an implicit understanding that there is a thin fucking line between your bullshit and a public execution. The dismantling of those works is acknowledgement that the compromise is null and void. Now they live in terror, divorced from the world.

I heard a podcast with LeMarche and Rob Paulsen where they were saying Maurice didn't know about that episode ahead of time and started happy crying when he first read it. The producers called it a $67,000 inside joke.

The @podouken.bsky.social boys taught me it's called a "kick harness" because Street Fighter 2 needed more than 4 buttons for medium and heavy kicks. Fun etymology.
