It's the year 2077. All movie studios belong to Netflix. Cinemas only play trailers for their streaming catalog. Every franchise is canceled after two movies/seasons, on mandatory cliffhangers. Nothing from before 2002 is available. Owning physical media is punishable by death. Netflix is love.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

oh so these people do pay attention to who politicians follow on social media, they just don’t care that the vice president follows a bunch of actual neo-nazis
Axios tried to bust James Talarico for following adult content creators on Instagram and I'm genuinely impressed by his campaign's response

Before playing I read in a review that the outer worlds 2 radio stations are all about each of the 3 factions individual propaganda output.
I joked to myself that the science cult’s channel only played schoolhouse rock.

My favorite part of last night is how it highlights the media rolling for the american reich as something they always wanted to do instead of it being a reflection of reality.

Piss on our legs and tell us it’s raining long enough and we will fight back. Great job everybody! Especially MS and VA.

It must feel so good to be Christopher Larkin right now. Less than two months after silksong came out people are making elaborate 32 piece arrangements of your score to sold out crowds in a completely different country.

Question:

If a POTUS was actually a Russian asset with the specific intent of destroying the military power, market strength, social unity, economic hegemony & global influence of the United States from within,

what would that person do DIFFERENTLY than what that asshole is doing right now?

It’s not my favorite approach to Metroidvania maps,but in the hollow knight games you are truly madly deeply aware when you are somewhere new.

It’s incredibly helpful when you’re mopping up collectables.

Finally forced my way to the front of the digital check out after three hours of endless refreshing.

Not a whole lot of games I would put up with that for.

Not a whole lot of games that can shut down every major storefront at once. For hours.

Happy Silksong day!

Happy silksong!
Hollow Knight is brave in giving players no character motivation or inciting incident. That made it challenging for me to enjoy in 2017. In my revisit, I ended the game FILLED with resolute clarity and reason.

Hollow Knight is a masterpiece. Happy Silksong.

Review | I was a ‘Hollow Knight’ skeptic. Now I see it’s a masterpiece.
Ahead of “Hollow Knight: Silksong,” our critic revisited the 2017 indie hit and found a narrative that trusts the player to find purpose.
