I still hate when YouTubers try voice acting. Partially because I'm from an era where crossover of the medium and any other career was considered taboo or desperate, and partially because most of the attempts are just...bad. 1/

This isn't a sleight at any game or person in particular, but I'm beginning to no longer see games as art with how some players complain about the minute details without giving actual critical feedback. 1/

Just a heads-up for any translators; avoid US-specific terminology. I saw an anime movie the other day and they mentioned "playing hooky" and I had no idea what it meant even with the context of the rest of the sentence. 1/

While I try to figure out how to decompress or decrypt where the cutscene text is, I've decided to start on another smaller project first.

For now, gonna watch the State of Play showcase. I'm not expecting much other than some RGG news (besides Kiwami 3),maybe more info on Kojima's two new games, and news on new PC ports.

I need to stop trying to learn pixel art. Every time I spend a couple of hours on a tutorial I'm like "I don't get this". I know there's a method, but from my perspective it feels very vibes-based so I can't see a formulaic way of doing things and that confuses me as a programmer.

I swear they said the Directs were ending back in April and switching to the calendar. Maybe they're only doing special Directs now? I don't know.
Anyway, let's see what we have coming up. I hope AoI isn't out till early next year...

Make sure your RPG battle transitions, scene composition, and attack animations are at least as cool as this Taiwanese DOS RPG from 1995

@polyducks.co.uk You wouldn't happen to have a recording of the 1-bit pixel art talk you did back in April?

I swear, I'm getting tired of apps and websites that just hide the scrollbar.

Stop hiding the damn scrollbar and let me drag it instead of being counter-accessible to both older people and people with hand issues. 1/

Final episode, time for the return of Omega...he better not be a dragon like RTD did with the return of the a previous masked villain.

Doctor Who now.
And right off the bat, I hate that there's two Ranis. Either actress I would have taken, but together they create a comedic duo which I hated in the brief scene we saw at the end of last week's episode.
I hope one either turns on the other or is killed.

The Well, let's see how this goes. Though it's looking like the episodes are gonna start one after another without any in between time. Which is an interesting change for the show, not just RTD.
