I can sorta see it, but it looks like the statue has a headplate and its horns might be bigger? Could be wrong.
Also I forgot this guy's name and existence entirely lol.

Okay the bears and snakes and wolves(?) make me think this isn't Doom. Cool. Mildly interested again. Looking forward to probably being disappointed!

extremely sharp thoughts on horses and the discourse around it, from harper
I played Horses this weekend and I wrote down some messy thoughts not only on the game but especially on the specter of formalism that emerged to haunt us all for a moment.

The red lines at the side correspond to the arms on the Wraiths from 2016. The orb is familiar too.

Geoff's desert statue is for the Doom Dark Ages DLC right? The monument reminds me of the skull switches from the nu-Doom games with fancier decoration than skulls.

I have! I am deeply curious. I'd be interested in seeing it if it comes to the UK, though the website is all USA.

Okay whilst I was busy playing Horses, it got relisted on Humble Bundle. If you prefer that over GOG, you can get it there too.
They did an actual review of it and decided it was fine. Fancy that.

Horses finished. I really liked it. It is unflinchingly uncomfortable at times, but it's all very purposefully directed. Terrible things happen when no-one speaks out, when the weak are forced to comply, and others join in and abet for their own benefit. Play it.

Games are constantly under attack for doing things other mediums have tackled for decades as if it's some new taboo.
Just watched @charalanahzard.bsky.social video that sums things up more eloquently youtu.be/G-7r9pL0Hqo?...
#Indiedev should be talking more about the freedom of the artform.

I've seen people say a few times lately that Dead Money is the worst New Vegas DLC, and I'm just going to interpret this as Lonesome Road being so slim that it's getting overlooked or forgotten.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
