“try water fox or ice weasel” try chill penguin. install flame mammoth. you just download bubble crab. literally just use boomer kuwanger. sting chameleon has a search bar, use it to find toxic seahorse.
I asked what I should use instead of firefox and someone said “floorp” and I legitimately thought it was a bit for like five minutes. tech has gone beyond making the torment nexus real to making poob real.

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."

Oh shit, there's "what does 'indie' actually mean?" discourse going on again, bail bail bail!

I could do so, so very much with a paltry million bucks.

Someone give me a million bucks.
Not only do I not have $1 million USD to advertise at TGA, like most indies, I have never had $1 million period to make a videogame.

It's not often you see an award where literally every single other nominee is more deserving than the winner
looked at the very first GOTY nominee list and winner back when it started as the spike video game awards in 2003 and it's so fucking funny dude

thing about graphical realism is that a lot of the games that cynically chase after it don't care enough about the visual language of film they are trying to copy to make the realism actually interesting let alone work in games. something as basic as colour palette and scene framing is a good one

a funnier bit would have been miss piggy throwing shade at geoff as she is wont to do but instead we went with "geoff fucked miss piggy" sorry i'm actually not over it as a choice for the show

Not the most sophisticated example, but:
In The Sims 2 after you go through a tedious process to turn your sim into a plantsim (that has fewer needs but requires water and sunlight to live), you can make the dumb choice to also turn them into a vampire (so they die when exposed to sunlight).

game industry has such a bad organizing problem when it comes to events and its because its very for-profit driven and not to celebrate the art of games
