GAME INDUSTRY: We’re only really interested in making live-service multiplayer games right now

ALSO GAME INDUSTRY: You’re all fired because only half a million people are playing this on week two

I think it’s fine and in many ways good that Edmund McMillen is still making weird edgelord bullshit, and I also think it’s fine and in many ways good that some people are over it

I’m here for a weird time, not for a good time

Stopping myself from making a tiktok by posting about it here: this edit and audio are doing numbers right now, with people posting their own recorded views from mountaintops like “guess I’m the penguin 😏” and it’s driving me INSANE

Welcome, Samus, to our most sacred ancient temple. It’s a motorcycle factory, built in the middle of a perpetual lightning storm. All the doors look like pussies.

Look all I’m saying is that gamers are an arrogant breed and must be stopped at every turn from destroying the thing they claim to love 😇

me, seeing two people in a perfectly healthy relationship using the “share my location” feature on their phones: this is Fascism, actually

A lot of ppl don’t like the PvP in Arc Raiders, but as someone with a limited tolerance for PvP, I think there are some loose social rules that 70% of players follow: Med/High loot zones are hostile, Extraction is friendly, anywhere in between you can plead your case.

I’m only a couple missions in, but Battlefield 6 is perhaps THE MOST BORING military action story ever told. Like the mission design is above average, but the story itself is mathematically calculated to produce as little emotion as possible

The Alters is a cool game, I can’t stop thinking about The Alters.

I’ve been puzzling over Eddington for the past week. I liked it, probably the least of Aster’s features, but the ending had me fully bought-in! It’s not centrist, but I think it has flaws that leave it open to that interpretation…

Modern Nintendo games are really excellent but often bounce off your brain the moment you put them down, and I think that’s because they can’t make a new villain to save their lives. The best-case scenario is a Bowser or Ganon rerun, but the rabbits from Odyssey? 3000 different shadow samuses? Cmon

Why is “friendslop” becoming a term now when the genre is finally healthy and viable? Like, Peak & REPO are perfect refinements of what Phasmophobia promised when it first hit early access

Petition to change the genre of “immersive sim” to “stealth game (good)”

I really do respect Clair Obscur but I will never trust its fans because it appeals to the exact kind of gamers who complain that every AAA game is the same and then never play any indie games that don’t attempt AAA-style photorealism

re: trans people in sports - would you accept a trans man playing in the MLB? From a liberal perspective, yes! Of course! Diversity win, we love the forward march of progress!

Now, how would you propose they reach that goal? Cuz they gotta start somewhere, and the MLB doesn’t scout girls teams.

I wonder what Kojima thinks about abortion

“Hazmat” is short for “Hazardous Matthew”

Sarah McBride literally represents me in almost every possible way. State, county, gender, race, economic background, etc. I think she’s exactly right about how her resistance to the capitol bathroom bullshit would’ve been taken. And I think she’s wrong about so much else.
