I feel like folks expressing surprise at how graphic Larian's new Game Awards trailer is might possibly have forgotten the time they cold announced Baldur's Gate 3 with a trailer that was literally just a depiction of illithid ceremorphosis so up close and detailed it gave some viewers new fetishes.

Modern UI rarely, if ever, contains drawings of skulls, jewels, or naked greek statues. Please do what you can to correct this.

To heal our divided nation I propose splitting Game of the Year awards into two categories:

- Game of the Year That’s 3D and You Use a Sword and/or Gun to Explode a Guy
- Game of the Year That’s Some Gay Bullshit Indie Meditation on Grief or Whatever

credits that include the names of everyone who worked on the game at any point

I've been getting back into the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series after many years, and the most relatable part is how everyday objects like doors and elevators have been imbued with artificial intelligence and it just makes them obnoxious and frustrating to use and everyone hates it.

Yes, videogames are art. Some of it is good art, some of it is bad art. That's life.

I made a lino cut for each of our favourite co-captains' weapons :D
Happy 4th anniversary Riptide!!
