still thinking about how both ff14 and osrs just both coincidentally added a quetzalcoatl inspired boss within a couple months of each other

i'm not sure why "we need a new game for indie games" is trending (clair obscur?) but I'm just going to casually note that as someone who has been an Independent Games Festival judge for literally over a decade, you will NEVER find a single hard quantifier that cleanly separates "indie/not indie"

At SNL I worked with artists who made the funniest, stupidest graphics in no time flat. Some of my biggest jokes would have been impossible without these geniuses building an insane image or finding the perfect real-life photo of a politician. Sucks that their work is being pushed aside for slop.

Left a bunch of horror game youtuber videos on autoplay and…
These guys and girls really need to find another four or five words to add to their vocabulary instead of “degenerate” whenever something remotely horny happens.

people seeing a story where the protags save the world from literal planetary annihilation and going "but they didn't stop capitalism" is so funny.
especially when they say "maybe the villain *should* have done it". buddy, are you doing alright

"How come no one's ported Shadow Warrior to consoles, it's been 12 years since Redux" it's because the health pickup is a fortune cookie and it plays a gong sound when you pick it up and the protagonist says "ancient chinese secret!" when you find a hidden passage

I think it's very funny that as time goes on there's an increasingly awkward air about the one game in the Build Engine "holy trinity" that's mindbogglingly racist

Many things will be said about this game, but what you need to know is that this was written by Chef Boyardee, the eponymous writer of Tales of Game's Studios Presents Chef Boyardee's Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden, Chapter 1 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa.
My only big post-game-award thought is that while Clair Obscur is obviously an excellent game (cmon, don't do the sour grapes thing, please?), it still doesn't come to mind AT ALL when I think of my favourite RPGs of the year

My favourite thing I heard of like this is a debugging feature in Alien Isolation where instead of hissing the Alien states aloud what it's thinking about.
"I heard you. I am hunting you. I am hunting you. I am hunting you. I have found you."

placeholders should be so bad you can't miss them or so adequate it wouldn't matter if they shipped. terrible or legally unusable assets which blend in are liability and sign of negligence
also these placeholders rule

you should make placeholder graphics look incredibly shitty!! making a game is a long and complicated process and if you use ai to make placeholders that look finished at a glance you'll probably forget some of it, and then people will scour your whole game and you'll look like a fraud.

Perfect screenshot. Worf as a focal point is already killer, then your eyes travel to Data in the friar haircut and you think "this can't possibly get any better," and then there's the finishing blow of Geordi in his space visor plucking a lute
