There's actually bad designs to show that would illustrate the point, too! All you need to point to is the main alien guy who looks like they found him working in Tesco to go 'this is why this game was too sauceless to make it', but instead it's right to the most racist choice they can make.

i dont think there's a better summary of the previous decade of politics than "putting a non binary gender option in call of duty"

All of which is leadup to the funniest reveal as a second Nine Ball attacks you

if you hate chaingunners, you should definitely play Plutonia on UV so that you can kill lots of them and vent your frustrations

Always funny when you can pinpoint the exact moment a YouTuber articulated a specific criticism because all of a sudden every discussion has it come up with identical phrasing when no one has mentioned it before.

unimaginably countless hours of work and polish put into producing a game that is just empty and sucks shit. and then they made it a second time.

Typing this up and I realised I forgot the new Katamari and Look Outside and Sudokovania and The Roottrees Are Dead and a bunch of other real good games. Gaming is so good! Also some stinkers like blue prince and miside but you can't win 'em all.

Stuff I played this year that was really really good: Pathologic (cant believe it took me this long to get around to it, I adore this game), Reverse Collapse (best tactical rpg I've ever played), Metal Slug (played a bunch of them and MS1 is my fav), Yu-No (foundational work for VNs). Going Down.wad

Thats just for games that came out this year, honourable mentions to Deltarune ch3/4 or Hades 2 (good overall, but a shite ending), Abiotic Factor, Logic Bombs and Ender Magnolia.

it imagines a world where the most important thing is 12 year olds playing football and everyone is suffering from different levels of Football Trauma, and it's incredible. 7 hours in and you haven't even played a real match yet.

one of the best movies ever made
