I need to know what #11 and #12 are so I can filk “the twelve days of christmas”.

I was never that interested in Cyberpunk 2077 based on the trailers and the marketing (I had played the TTRPG, it was... an 80s TTRPG), but I have to say the shitshow that has been “the release of this game” has been truly amazing.
Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel didn’t “tarnish the brand” enough that Bethesda was unwilling to pay big bucks for it, and that game was worse than 76 ever was.
A significant quantity of magic evaporated from my life when I realized that “stuffed crust” was just “roll the dough up around some string cheese.”
For anything that is scandalously expensive primarily because of supply and demand, I will simply choose to not contribute to the demand. There’s lots of fantastic beef that’s not Wagyu that’s provides more bang for the buck.
I confess I don’t understand how these games that you pay for once, and have endless development cycles *until it’s good* are supposed to make money. Is it just “the game exists as a platform on which to sell expansion content?”
It’s like on those cooking competition shows where they limit you to n ingredients, but they have like “water” and “salt” at your station already.
Pretty much every gum has non-sugar sweeteners in it, are we to give up on gum?
One hopes that as a result of this fiasco CDPR has a lot less unearned good will from the gaming masses since they’re just a big evil company like all the other ones that big. Sure, they’ve made an all time classic great game, but pretty much every big publisher has at least one under their belt. The Witcher 3…
I assume not fresh? The proteases in various fruits that break down gelatin will themselves break down at above 120F degrees of so. Anything that’s been pasteurized has been heated noticeably beyond that (I think commercial vat pasteurization is 145F for 30 minutes).
The key with “let the player project whoever they want onto the bank slate” is that this works best when the game provides ample negative space in order to project something. The classic way to do this is with dialog- you can have 8 different ways of saying “I agree to do the thing” that each mean something different…
Is it just soda or is anything you drink with artifical sweeteners in it straight up poison? Like the “lower calorie cranberry juice” or “those water enhancers like Mio.”
Since you can make any cheese into a liquid with sodium citrate and a little liquid for thinning, I wonder how much they will have thinned the cheese and with what (water, probably).
I’ve never had alcoholic gelatin, but I’m wondering if you could try to do replicate entire cocktails in jell-o form. You’d have to be careful about things that prevent gelatin from setting (like ginger, pineapple, mango, guava, and papaya), but since most 9/10 cocktails are simply “a base spirit, a sour/bitter…
I’m just happy that cabbage was on the Uber Eats list for predicted 2020 trends five times.
All art is art, and it all means something to someone. Even the most cynical of products had someone working on it that really believed in it. The interesting thing is that games seems to function differently than movies or music here. Everybody eventually finds themselves with a half-dozen or more movies that they lov…
It feels like “steak tartare” as a concept is only really defensible since it’s served exclusively at high-end restaurants that take hygiene very seriously, uses cuts of meat sourced from reliable butchers, and is freshly minced so the outside of the meat (where the e. coli lives) doesn’t have a lot of time to set up…
Happy I wasn’t the only person who loved “Dispatches from Elsewhere”.
The moral of the story is once again: There’s no need to preorder games.
Why does gaming even need a “best game direction” award? In the history of the VGA, since they added the “best game direction” award the winner of the overall GotY award also won the best game direction every time except 2019. 2019 splitting the award was probably a function of “Hideo Kojima made a game, and we’ve…
