I was on vacation there and wanted to ride the L just to say I rode the L. It broke down on my ride.

things are only so negative because the industry itself is so shitty but you’re not wrong that we could do a bit more to highlight the cool and positive stuff too. it’s awesome seeing ironmouse skyrocket in popularity so it felt nature to cover but yall know we love streaming shit so lemme know what i should look at

glad you enjoyed the read :) im thinking of a follow-up digging a bit more into ironmouse’s background and what her stream setup is like

and nicer comments section in comparison to other Vtuber comments sections as of late.

No one is honestly more deserving. Two more small tidbits, 1) she’s a trained opera singer so her singing is quite beautiful and, 2) she’s immunocompromised and has some sort of lung disease, so she’s been house, and more often, bed bound for years. Even while streaming she has to take meds constantly and sometimes…

I am thrilled Chris Broad has embraced Twitch!

Wordle without words is called Mastermind. Your parents or grandparents probably have a copy of it in their rec room.

Now that sounds like an app with an excellent gameplay loop.

“Elon Musk thinks vehicles using LiDAR to detect objects is “lame”, “frickin stupid”, “a fool’s errand””

Still disappointed we never got the Michelle Yeoh Bond spinoff movies that we were never promised but I wanted anyway.

That ionnalee album is incredible. I especially love the duets with Jamie Irrepressible and TR/ST.

You’re missing Ionnalee’s “Everyone Afraid To Be Forgotten” which hasn’t gotten nearly enough attention, Ghost’s “Prequelle” which wins a spot on the strength of ‘Danse Macabre’ alone, and Ministry’s “Amerikkant”which is probably the best thing Al Jourgensen has done since the turn of the century.

I’m with you on Neko…

Definitely. Given that she’s in-canon English nobility, a quick Google search reveals a lot of popular and colorful designs that could have been riffed off of fairly handily. Even if they kept to her persona as a dominatrix (which has been pretty explicit) and wanted to keep her “sexy,” they could have shown far more…

“There are women out here in real life that do have these body types.”

Yeah, I agree with you, Michael. Lots of different kinds of games exist for lots of different audiences, but I think it’s important not to talk out of both sides of your mouth. Also, the game takes place in the 16th century, which would have been a cool opportunity for devs to make an awesome 16th century ensemble for…

I think the real issue here is that they didn’t own it, but rather tried to deflect pretty heavily. I think Yoshida really nailed it by saying that his character designs are entirely because he likes pretty girls; it’s straightforward, honest, and admits that the designs are not meant to appeal to everybody. Being…

What, a 100-year-old ex-dancer gimp assassin doesn’t do it for you?

Why don’t they ever objectify men in games? I want Kilik in a speedo. Or Siegfried. C’mon. Fan service goes both ways. And don’t point me towards Voldo.

When the person involved is a paid model, and not a/also a cosplayer.
