Vinesauce Joel would see one person mention a "skeleton posing program" while playing something different and would proceed to look it up and download it to do a 48 minute long bit where he does this and says "my bönaŕ when I see... de böubiss"

fighting games are being "saved" every day by everyone who plays them, every TO, every bracket runner, everyone who wakes up and decides to care about this shit at all. it's all there for anyone who cares to look. if you don't want it, you won't get it, but it's there. it always has been

Still thinking about this quote.
"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.
Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI'
The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.

discord can't collapse into irrelevance because an empty server where i dump screenshots, notes, and pictures is somehow, in 2026, the best way of getting shit off my phone and onto the computer

I'm sorry to keep harping on this but like, I can't stick with gacha games (and most f2p games tbh) bc I feel like they just want me to play them for literally any reason except just playing the game, and I feel like I'm the only person I know who has such a low tolerance for this shit
i think the real purpose of gacha games is to give people clinical depression

turns out the discord situation is worse! the company that will be doing the age verifications with IDs is Persona, a peter thiel aligned company

we're going to try to wind down the Kill The Computer discord and try to get a subreddit for the podcasts community up and running

Not only it's a great story & game, IMO it's one of the most beautiful games in the PS2 library.

I love emulating it at high res to see all the care they put into the scenarios. Look at how many details this random house has - and yet the devs still made a joke out of not having a ladle model lol

the games industry is collapsing/has already collapsed and investors are never coming back and that all sucks but i do generally have hope that a more stable, genuinely independent scene will emerge in its absence. that is until i see a single comment on any video by the gaming audience jesus christ

( deep sigh ) jesus fucking christ how long am i going to have to bang on this drum ITS THE CAPITALISM YOU FUCKING GENIUSES. FIGHTING GAMES CANNOT SURVIVE AS A MODEL UNDER THE DEMANDS OF CRUMBLING TRIPLE A GAME INDUSTRY CAPITAL & CONSTANT DEMAND FOR NUMBER GO UP. THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU ALL
The 2XKO situation just reaffirms to me that Fighting Games need to have single player content.
