Final Fantasy Tactics, Disco Elysium, Kentucky Route Zero, Norco, and Planescape: Torment really feel like the "Great Books" in the "canon" of video games and I really want to make/find the time to sit down and play through them all.

Wow, this must be one of the most popular things I've ever posted on here, guess I hit upon a sentiment a lot of people were feeling? So, can you do me a favour?
Advocate for the art you love. Talk about it, uplift it, introduce it to others, leave reviews. Let's not just focus on the negative.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

it was bothering me that i couldn't use the usual aksendi language indicator in nvl mode, so i made a separate ctc for it. this doesn't matter in chapter 3 at all, but it exists now.

pinning up your artistic pursuit on transgressive subjects that balance on the knife's edge of legal and financial death is the dumbest thing you can do. whether or not you realise, it somewhat requires a deathwish. which is also why you've gotta do it. nothing else is worth the time and air

“Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against the hills, holding darkness within […] walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.”
What's your favourite monster/creature from literature? I'm thinking Tuunbaq from Dan Simmon's The Terror, the triffids from Wyndham's Day of the Triffids, the demon from M.R. James' Casting The Runes, Grendel, Pennywise, etc.
