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.

I thought this was going to be a review of my time with Santa Ragione's Horses, the controversial art game recently banned from Steam and the Epic Store. To some extent, this will be that but after...

So I did finish HORSES this weekend, and while it does deal with some dark and heavy themes, the fact that that game is banned on Steam despite all of the terrible slop that already exists unabashedly on the platform speaks to really bizarre hypocrisy.

While the world is full of amazing and skilled game journalists as it is, with the state of the industry and my own experiences with certain games makes me yearn for a platform to share my long form thoughts. Maybe it’s time to revive that tumblr.

While I’ve found the broader discourse on Horses to be obnoxious, I’m so thrilled by the critical conversation that’s happening. Tons of great writing that engages with what the thing is trying to do, and have walked away with different interpretations that all deepen the way we approach it.

Horses Is Tame
Horses, the indie game that is too scandalous for either Valve or Epic, is only beyond the pale if you're not familiar with any other art form.

It’s so exhausting to talk to people who have never purposefully engaged with media that challenges them or makes them uncomfortable. The point is to think and reflect on the work and your feelings. It’s healthy and enriching, and very clear to me that some only want vapid enjoyment 24/7.

Horses' only sin is that its broad themes don't entirely pay off its loaded imagery. Otherwise, it's an effectively uncomfortable games that turns life's mundane humiliations into surreal horror. If anything, its bans fill in its thematic gaps for it. My review. www.polygon.com/horses-banne...

Just did a test of the new Mario Kart World patch and I think Nintendo really outdid themselves this time.
