I like the cartoon horses for gambling addicts and fighting games
Hey, what's the number one thing everyone remembers about Steins;Gate? Okay, you got me, the number two thing after the really weird gender stuff. Right, it's the distinctive art style. Anyway, what if we got rid of that

when I was at google, their class on licenses basically said "we can't use any license that's funny"

so I suggest everyone license their software as funny as possible
finally a normal software license that definitely holds up really well

One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.

tbh everyone should just get into Arcade Archives instead of new games

There's a world premiere every week, you can then buy the game a few hours later instead of having to wait months or years and then there's an after party stream the next day

All the good bits with none of the junk😅
honestly, the most tiring part of The Game Awards discourse is that, ultimately, nobody gives a shit about the awards, they're watching for the WORLD PREMIEREs

Never forget the all-time greatest placeholder asset, from Doom 64

The annoying thing about the "oh we left a placeholder" generative AI slop excuse is that that is EXACTLY NOT how you should be using placeholders. Anything "not obviously terrible with a panicked hurried half-awake glance" is getting shipped.
In gamedev, if you're using a placeholder asset, best practices involve marking it as placeholder so garishly and offensively clearly PLACEHOLDER that you can't possibly miss it. Also flagging that asset in the dev process so it can be identified quickly before the final build.

I like to tell myself I'm not sentimental about material things, but I'm also looking at spending more than the computer's worth in (another) replacement battery and a replacement SSD for my twelve-year-old Macbook Air, so who's the fool

like i am not going to devote a fraction of my brain to being upset for longer than a minute, but this says about all you need to know about the legitimacy of TGA's awards at least as it applies to music

Every time I hear about some high-school band playing a bit of Millennial Culture, I remember the shock and horror I felt watching Sound! Euphonium when the marching brand busts out Rydeen. "Oh no," I realized, "YMO is Japanese Dad Music"

It's Game of the Year season already? Time to see if I actually remembered to take notes on new release videogames I played enough this year to have strong feelings for.

I think the winner-by-default is Mahou Shoujo no Majo Saiban. Shine Post might be number two by default

Watching videos of folks capping CPU power draw/core usage to approximate the specs of the Steam Machine and then upscale games from 1080p or lower to "4K" and thinking about how YouTube Compression just makes everything look like muddy sludge

everyone who wants Democrats to focus on throwing immigrants and trans people under the bus needs to explain why this is not going to be the end result
