Daggerheart update: Run a crew through the whole demo, am halfway through with another, and have another on deck next month.
In my experience 3 sessions, 2 hours each, is pretty much bang on perfect. Love how each part shows off a different aspect of the game.
What a treat. 10/10 will run again.

I need folks to know "classics are classic for a reason" re: creative work is not the great argument you think it is, mostly because it leaves entirely unexamined the *reasons* some things persist in culture, of which "quality," subjective in any event, is only one reason and often not the main one.

There are two wolves inside of me. One wants to immediately start a new #Bloodbourne playthrough and the other wants me to wait to see if maybe finally we get a PC or PS5 remaster.

If you think it will stop at "those" games, it will not stop with those games.
Steam and itch.io have removed thousands of video games in recent weeks deemed to be "adult content" in order to comply with strict rules from payment processors like Mastercard.
These policies censor artists engaged in lawful speech. Mastercard shouldn't be the gatekeepers of our digital freedom.

Why did thousands of adult titles just disappear from the biggest PC gaming marketplaces?
Digital distribution platforms Steam and itch.io have tightened their rules about adult content – under pressure from payment processors. Why has this happened and where will it lead?

Spun up a #Daggerheart demo game with a couple of the ESO folks last week and we are hitting our second session tonight. Early experiences very positive. The Demiplane site and the collaborative chargen vibes built into their Session 0s work GREAT. Can't wait to jump back in.

Annihilation is one of my hands-down favorite films of all time. It is also, I believe, the only film to non-jumpscare scare me past 30. Watch it. 🐻
Yes, Annihilation will stream on Paramount starting August 1. No, the movie wasn't much hated. No, it didn't flop in the usual way. The new Paramount leadership suffocated it by releasing on too few screens. Per screen take was robust. share.google/4PHbY6q65jJk...
7 Years Later, Alex Garland's Hated Sci-Fi Horror Will Land On Streaming
Cosmic horror fans will love this alien invasion film.

As despicable as it is at face value, banning "adult content" is code for deplatforming queer creators and stories. The purpose isn't to keep kids safe, it's to continue uprooting and criminalizing LGBTQ+ communities.
