I'm thinking I just want more potlucks!

Like why are we waiting for only holidays to do this? I *like it* when people come over and we eat and share food and hang out. It's *fun*.

Let's just do it more!

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

Deltarune is building an entire bespoke mystery ARG on the back of the notion that rando NPC dialogue rules, actually, and is really cool, and compelling, and interesting, and fun.

if NPC dialogue in a game is unimportant or boring, one of two things is happening:

1. someone did a bad job writing it
2. you didn't appreciate it, for whatever reason

don't put sawdust in your bread on purpose for fuck's sake

i take frenzy damage every time i see someone go "well i just use it for the boring stuff". what are you TALKING about? if it's boring or unimportant, why are you putting it in? NPC dialogue is fertile ground for worldbuilding, creating verisimilitude, conveying important information, and hijinks!!
Buy a solo indie dev's game because I want to support them.

Find out it uses OpenAI to write "non-important NPC dialogue".

WTF? NPC dialog is one of my big absolute joys to write, who the hell would skip that and let a dumb plagiarist machine do it for them? No love for the craft...

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

I think I want to be told I'm pretty, but if someone tells me I'm pretty the first thought is "you are flattering me so you can eventually sell me a time-share"

Working in games means your answer to the question "If you could do anything you wanted in life, what would it be?" isn't a different career, but the same career in a kinder version of the same industry.

I played a LOT of city trial on GameCube, so I knew what I was getting. Air Riders to me is kind of incredible in how it feels just like I remember the GameCube one but also like ten times better at the same time. So many little refinements everywhere, but also at its core very much the same game

Definitely speaks to the way media informs culture that Rick The Hamster has existed, conceptually, for about 30 years. But only now, in the age of the doomscroll, when he was most needed, has he achieved his true power and the masses have become blessed by the light of Rick.

My father brought home an N64 and Mario 64 as an unprompted Christmas gift when I was four, and from then on it was over for me.

Nintendo Switch Online getting GameCube games but not Kirby Air Ride nor any of the Metroid Primes before Kirby Air Riders and Metroid Prime 4 come out is wild to me.

Mario Kart and Sonic Crossworlds require you to drift and tech and parkour etc. to go fast, and that's great. But in Kirby Air Riders, if you wanna go fast, if you wanna win, your only option is Kill.
