goty stuff is always a little tough for me because a mix of brain probalos and general chronical illness that saps my energy means i spend a lot more of my time intending to play things than actually playing through anything, but I think I'm going to make a little thread about my picks
the 'waow long video' defunctland discourse is funny to me on two fronts:
- the guy ran an actual poll to see if people wanted one long video all at once or to split it in two
- if you were to edit it down, most of what would go are the tangents he goes on that end up being some of the best bits imo

that gyoza lord ravenloft post that's going around is almost definitely another engagement bot fwiw

those keep popping up and they show themselves as being fake (not just a troll) really quickly if you scroll through enough of their replies

"what's the most useless video game trivia you know" -- one of the sci-fi alien screen textures in half-life 2 just uses a screenshot from a (surprisingly OK) Star Trek 4x game called Birth of the Federation... the Combine Advisor is playing as the Romulans, on turn 363

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

....also video-game-wise they published two editions of the game Personal Automated Wagging System and the discrepancy in the publisher branding was what led me down this rabbit hole last year to begin with

Criterion Collection is indirectly responsible for the creation of a popular 90s web plugin and ebook format for writing/reading vertical text in japanese, which was not supported in HTML/ebook formats by default at the time
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

The real and true story of why Police Squad (the TV series Naked Gun was based on and easily the funniest tv show of its time) was canceled is legitimately insane and one of the most egregious examples of TV malpractice I’ve ever heard:

this is extra true when grifting and right-wing views enter the sphere too, and ties in with my thread venting about FFXIV community "opinions" and treating Dawntrail as the worst expansion ever after alot of people took their opinions from racists and transphobes that completely poisoned the well
One of the producers on Guilty Gear Strive said it was basically impossible to source player feedback on balance changes online because nobody had original opinions and would just parrot what the most popular content creators said and so they had to rely on data and I think about that every day.
