My brother in Christ, my backlog is literally thousands of games long. I have lifetimes worth of earlier titles to play, & I will gladly do that instead of boiling the oceans for a new CoD or whatever

Y'all acting like this definitely means new Chrono game when he's probably just talking about a one-night concert in Tokyo or a Uniqlo collab where they put the Toma sprite on a t-shirt*

they are unused because Sonic and friends are incapable of feeling love
All the game's playable characters (including Honey the Cat) have this expression in the game's files, but aside from the Bean head, they go unused.

look I live and breathe shonen manga, but I've been banging this drum for decades now
there are *so* many excellent comics and shows from Japan that aren't for the shonen demographic--and more importantly--don't run in Weekly Shonen Jump

holy fuck this is ridiculous, how can we claim games are art if art is this scary to our two primary distribution channels?
Yesterday, the Epic Games Store decided at the last minute not to distribute the game, after having previously approved a release build. HORSES is otherwise now available on GOG, Itch, and Humble for $4.99. www.horses.wtf

Hope it works out for them. Shovel Knight is one of my top 20 of all time and I really liked what I played of Mina the Hollower so far
NEW: Yacht Club Games needs a hit. In recent years the maker of Shovel Knight has had to lay off staff, pause a 3D project, and delay their next game indefinitely.
The good news is that Mina the Hollower could be special. For Businessweek, this is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

A really important thing to learn about fascism imo is that one of its most appealing traits to followers is giving a “place” to the talentless and mediocre so long as they tow the line enthusiastically and assert their superiority to the designated Other.
I am so glad I’m not teaching rn because I’d go viral for giving people no credit when they don’t do the assignment or use an adult level of critical thinking in a COLLEGE CLASS
