Yup, we're working on a new Castlevania game.
Thanks to KONAMI, & with Motion Twin's friendly advice, the franchise will be going back to its roots with what we hope to be the best whip traversal & combat ever seen in a 2D action-adventure game! Noooo pressure...

the cycle of “devs working for years to make a game > game launches (and it doesn’t matter how successful it is) > two week waiting period > most of the team laid off” is not only entirely unsustainable but genuinely horrifying

The live service game launched just two weeks ago after being revealed at The Game Awards.

my answer to "why can't conservatives make art": they do, actually, and a lot of it is very popular. but they hate calling things "conservative art" because they want upholding the status quo to be seen as neutral. they do not like it when you call military FPSes, war movies "politically right-wing"

the actual Republican parents who support the politicians pushing for this think the effort and money they spent parenting are wasted if their kids turn out different from them.
You eliminate that possibility by eliminating the public existence of other kinds of people.

This might be a hot take, but if parents are so concerned about what their kids see online, then they should actually do some damn parenting themselves instead of campaigning for governments to make things worse for everyone.
