Racism is institutional/structural. Discrimination is not.

I enjoy articles like this so much, but it continues to dance around pinning any of these individuals in the discord down about WHY they would be upset by the inclusion of racially and sexually diverse characters. Anyone with half a brain knows these claims of “forced DEI” never pan out because that’s just not how…

I love these discussions, because in my 30th year in the game industry (i used to draw sprites for SNES games), I truly despise armchair developers who say stupid shit like “I can’t believe QA let this through” as if QA has final say on when a game ships. I’ve had to veto a QA recommendation to hold back a release…

Too much discussion about frame rates; not enough about how terrible, self indulgent, and straight up batshit crazy these games are.

Sega didn’t get the memo that PC and emulation gaming handhelds are in and miniature game-filled replica consoles are out.

Hey everybody, I have been wondering why there hasn’t been a Fahey post for a while and it seems that he’s been having some very rough months, healthwise.

The best fantasy / sci-fi stories give their characters room to live a full life. Not just between adventures, but during them, too. They let us imagine a world within which we can also actually live, as perfectly ordinary people, even if our surroundings are out of this world. It’s that mixture of the fantastical and…

Not trying to offend you or anything Sisi, but I really get the impression that your sole job here is to advocate for gacha games, to try to paint them in a more positive light to core gamers. If so...I fear it’s a fools effort, for there is basically no other crowd that abhors gacha as much and as passionately.

There’s also this Choose Your Own Adventure version:

Cracker isn’t a racial slur, and people complaining about the definition of racism as described above are dumb, full stop.

It’s not irresistible if you never play.

We can debate how many crocodile tears to shed for the small fortunes people like Sweeney, Elon Musk, and Jeff Bezos would lose...

He created some iconic music in his day, but on the other hand the dude was an openly ultranationalist homophobic misogynistic war-crime denier and the world as a whole is net positive without him even considering his contributions to the field of music.

I personally finish every game I start even if I hate it because I don’t want to be considered a wimp by someone who didn’t think things through very well. I also wake up every day wishing I was dead
