Bad puns and worse jokes
He/Him
I think the fact that they never publicly commented on it helped remove it from memory in contrast to something like The Alters

Any updates on whether Mina will make it out the door this year? It is the one thing preventing a winner being crowned in our Fantasy Critic league 😭

(Jokes aside, take all the time you need, looking forward to playing the game when it’s ready - this year or next)

Or, as the form puts it, an Australian “video game” website 😅

Craziest part is apparently he’s actually made it in collaboration with legitimately smaller devs - all of whom were not mentioned in the moment at all
December 12, 2025 at 11:28 AM
Haha, that fuckin’ blows

What’s the bet he paid for one of the public tickets and is intentionally avoiding saying it to make him seem more connected? 95%? 99%?

Ah true! The jumping between things can be less than ideal.

There’s a paperback with his whole Eternals Run! And then Judgement day has all his stuff in both the main paperback and the companion one

I missed it because there wasn’t an ActiBlizz controversy they were trying to bury with it like 75% of OW news

I suspect that it’s because they are devoid of any real characters because the goal is to make you and your friend group the characters. And when all the plot/story/anything is coming from that emergent gameplay there’s not many signifiers they can project the culture war onto. No big boob REPO guy

We await with bated breath (though not too bated if it’s three years away)

I may be the sole person that would play that campaign out of morbid fascination to find out what rancid new political take they have if the boycott weren’t going. But it’s not like I’m losing any sleep over it.

The shifting of goalposts here to imply that they were only talking about a “flood of crime” and not implying an entire group of people were equivalent to The Flood is really something else

Man has the written equivalent of a tech keynote every year updating on what he’s doing. Truly on a different level in this regard

Absolutely great stuff. Games crit needs more like this

Yeah this is exactly my thoughts and the conversations I have with my friends who code.

Three of my favourite people in da biz! Big SXSW FOMO on this one

It is! Different focus to 4 with less set pieces but there’s a case to be made it’s the best

Where does Lost Legacy rank if you’ve played it?

Super Motherload, the full release based on the classic flash game
October 10, 2025 at 3:01 AM
Oooh I’ve been meaning to get around to it. Sale and recommend from Cass is the perfect sign
