In 1987, a popular novel trilogy gave birth to two adaptations. One, the foundation for one of the most influential RPG franchises ever. The other, an OVA. Guess which one we're talking about.

Took me 4 days to watch the whole thing, but that was a damned good Defunctland video.

One thing I miss about the dealers rooms at conventions is that I used to not have to worry about which retro games booth was the least crooked.

Knights of Guinevere hits different after watching the new defunctland, especially after Kevin points out the biggest barrier to autonomous living characters is how much park attendees suck and would immediately swarm these things if given the chance

the 'it's inevitable' argument requires me to believe that people will see the quality of their entertainment - their circuses, if you will - massively decline while prices remain the same or even go up and just shrug, and it's like, no they won't lol
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Thinking about how there was once a band called Ned's Atomic Dustbin. They had two bassists and they were actually pretty damn good.

I'm a one eyed monster
Call me Polyphemus
But please don't address me
As a euphemism
For a penis
A being so Cyclopean
I'm ancient like some ruins
But since you're an allegory
In my cave I'll tell you all about
How I'm doin.

i mentioned this a few days ago but if you ever need a "mammoths and ancient egypt had some overlap" factoid for more recent times, the first commercial nickelodeon ever aired during a spongebob episode was for this.

No, they're bonded like Pacific Rim, Getter Robo or Gunbuster.
So circling back to that 'babies pilot their dwarven mothers like mech suits' bug they re-fixed recently... Dwarves have about a 1/500 chance of giving birth to twins, or triplets. And if they do, the mother carries all of them around till they walk.

So do the babies fight for control in that case?

It seems irresponsible to spend 5 paragraphs and a headline talking about the game without saying this is not developed by Grasshopper Manufacture.

the first 18 months of mtv must have been absolutely crazy for weirdo 15 year olds at the time. any time of day you press a button and can watch a channel that shows entirely experimental short films vaguely connected to unearthly sounding new wave songs because no one else shot proper videos yet

One is the annoying things with the difficulty discussion around Souls games is that they HAVE diegetic difficulty relief valves and the fandom pretends they're like an accident
Fromsoft players are like... damaged. Speaking as someone who loves the games, the community is insufferable in their attitude that the game has a "right" way to be played. (Probably born from the "Its so hard!" circle jerk early coverage/marketing of DS1 spawned)
