Sorry. I definitely know the feeling.

A good friend of mine was a contractor at Nintendo for years, and none of this even remotely surprises me.

Jack ALMOST lets one slip in Tales. Almost. And then he stops himself halfway through the word.

And the original collection of the Library of Congress, so, y’know, sure, the Canadians can be proud of being book-burners if they want.

It’s been interesting playing Genshin Impact, since all the nations in that game are thinly veiled fantasy versions of real-world places/cultures, China prominently included, but it’s less biased than you might think. Overall, honestly, it kinda plays out like, “Europe’s lovely (but we’re going to keep commenting that …

It really is. I also enjoy “Hexecutioner” (Spellshot/Clawbringer).

Ultimately, while I’d like to believe that voting with your wallet makes a difference, there’s a certain scale at which that stops being true, and at which boycotting is just patting yourself on the back for the entirely passive act of doing literally nothing. And people absolutely lose their shit over any suggestion…

The speedrunning community will never, ever, ever chill and I’d have it no other way.

In the past few weeks, the Sims community has been embroiled in a controversy over the Russian version of the wedding-based expansion. My Wedding Stories is game pack, think a medium-sized DLC for The Sims 4, expands on the existing wedding mechanics in the game with new decor, furniture, a wedding prep gameplay.

Sometimes the best fun you can have in video games is the fun you make for yourself.

Sadly, yes.

I decided early on I wasn’t going to drive myself nuts trying to get a PS5, and I wasn’t going to jump through any ridiculous hoops, but if I found a sensible way to buy one I’d snag one when I could. I got one a few months ago when Sony was accepting sign-ups through their site for stock notifications. I gave them my…

Half my feed yesterday was people being absolutely LIVID about their music getting scraped by that site. NFTs are great for artists, my ass.

Funny how at first everyone was outraged that YOU SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO OWN WHAT YOU BUY, fuck subscription services, etc., then Game Pass came along and everyone fell all over it anyway, and then once games start rotating off of it it’s “wow, this sucks.”

oh, look
