Your local hag.
hardware prices are out of control...and sadly NVIDIA still reported making a ton of money so we're still have to wait for everything to come crashing down

the shit that people hate about nintendo direct - a smooth-talking tour guide telling you how you're supposed to feel, what's supposed to charm you, with all the emotional complexity of dora the explorer - is baked into so many games now!!

most nintendo output, yes, but it's more broadly endemic!

That bit in Metroid prime 4 where we are hanging out with the chozos and one of them flies past and samus says "they fly now?" And her sidekick Cuthbert says "they fly now" is a chef's kiss

every decision informed by this being the Company Who Can't Be Normal About Women. whatever they're doing is also from the guys who think her main personality trait is "Maternal" and that her armor should get blown off to reveal an ugly-ass latex fetish outfit with built in heels.

Metroid is fascinating because in mechanics, atmosphere, and tone it was iconic out the gate in ways everyone but the IP owner has appreciated and iterated on ever since.

Can't think of a series that spawned as many imitators while the rights holders act like its fundamentals are boring and broken.

Metroid was popular with women and even a small but loyal queer/trans fanbase due to some admittedly genuine mistakes in early marketing stuff but they never forgave it for appealing to either and every game since Prime has to be some weird humiliation ritual

So let me get this straight...

So let me get this straight. I'm somewhere that's NOT what I would call Zebes... I'm seeing freaking Metroids, and... oh yeah I'm talking to an ALIEN. Yeah okay that is something that I do now. I do psychic powers, kill jacked-up beasts, I'll probably fly next.

Vertex colors are crucial to Angeline Era's unique, low-poly art style!

Much of the game's cube-based artwork is actually black and white. We then use a color palette system to create most of the game's vivid forests and towns!🌲

Thinking again about how fucking bizarre it was to see channer culture shift from "get those men out of my yuri" to full on homophobic panics about even implied lesbian relationships and the possibility that a trans person might like it

Dang this is cringe af, who treats artists making fanart of your stuff like this. He even likes and tweets random ass horny anime drawing on twitter don't act all pure now or just say you're homophobic loud and clear instead of going "really obvious" and beating around the bush

NieR Automata genuinely might be one of the most important game releases of all time explicitly because of how it directly inspired DXVK, yes.

ok this sucking and all, and ok the mismatch between the audience and the artist is already funny enough, but can we talk on how wild that last screen is lmao?
KEK unironically in the year of the lord 2025 and whatever "rejecting conspiracy discourse" is, bro is more boiled than a stew.
Acquaintance grabbed these screencaps. Idk if it's getting purged.

"Second stage is people rejecting conspiracy discourse" is genuinely hilarious, I gotta teach em a little about Yakub and maybe they'll change their tune

Well, fuck. Revoking any and all Peripeteia recommendations (and I wish I could un-back it on Kickstarter) based on the very thinly veiled transphobia from the dev (the first one in the screenshots here).

I hate this.
