i am going completely insane watching gamers make up shit about horses and interrogating every single thing the devs have said for inconsistencies and then deciding well it probably had cp in it. this is the easy mode version of the kinds of censorship that are to come and you're failing like babies

Despite the controversy, Horses is only shocking if you're unfamiliar with the history movies, theater, literature, or basically any art form that does not have stats. aftermath.site/horses-indie-g...
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.

things that are good to look at if you make games are poetry and paintings

Having friend’s Spotify wrapped put into your face on every social media is the same kind of feeling as if they had walked into your house and taken a shit on the rug.

How are you all having such bad experiences revealing that you do game dev as a job in social situations, everyone I meet from comuter illiterate old folkies to makery tech nerds are excited and inquisitive when I tell them I make games.

All 50,000 panels of the National AIDS Memorial Quilt has been fully digitized.

You can search Duane's name and see the panel he made. And someone else made a panel for him, too.

Dark Souls 1 will always be my favourite and it feels accessible because all you need are patience and observation to get through. Bloodborne you need reaction skills that can only be established as a caffeinated 12 year old and I started playing games too late. Pretty much insurmountable to me.

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

there is almost no feedback I will reflexively ignore as a game developer but “you shouldn’t name something X because people don’t know that word” is one of them. oh no! You might learn a new word! God forbid you take away a piece of knowledge from a game that’s not a brand of gun or some shit lol
