For the first time in the show’s history, this year, MTV introduced a “best metaverse” category. Nominees for the inaugural showing of the category include:

But if the past games grew stale for you and you aren’t interested in the new characters—who I like, but I can also understand people might find them grating—you can feel free to skip this one.

Bring back the watch face ring/dial you cowards.

Most ludicrously, there now exists a marketplace called PromptBase, designed solely to sell “prompts”, which are the inputs used to actually generate AI images. Surprising nobody, this marketplace is already rife with copyrighted works, ranging from pop culture characters to branded sneakers.

I always wonder if people are acting in bad faith or just pure, unabashed naivety when they say shit like this. No, they wouldn’t be paying you pennies a day to play their game. They would gather all of the pennies into fat bonuses for their grifter executives.

I love old school Telltale, and I adore the expanse. I hope this new studio wearing Telltale’s skin does both justice.

And still no mission replay outside of introducing a friend and riding on their coat tails.

It’s tech handicapped-to-illiterate people who have stock portfolios. That’s the audience. I know this because I work for one. He thinks the metaverse will be the next big thing because he’s viewing it as a way for facebook to diversify and increase their stock value. More broadly, you have people betting on it’s…

I feel like if your only take away from experiencing VR is “it made me feel bad”, you have to have fucked up somewhere along the way. I mean yes, VR queasiness is a thing for some people unfortunately, but surely if you did it correctly with a decent headset your take away has to be “that was so fucking cool! *vomits…

Meanwhile, both are more vaguely cribbing from Johnson Ting’s “Frontier Buccaneers” image series from 8 years ago.

Actually I guess they were always chaps, they just made them way more obvious.

Her 4 costume was sensible in comparison, now its like her 4 costume mixed with jojo part 3's Dio. Weird codpiece built in, harem pants turned into chaps, the top doesn’t actually cover anything so she needs a half jacket...

I’m not even into her for feet reasons,

You can have air conditioning through the entirety of the 15 minutes it takes to charge a couple hundred miles worth of energy, unlike at a gas pump, where doing so risks death or battery failure. I’ve sat at (slow and malfunctioning) pumps longer than that trying to get gas.

They certainly could have given themselves more of a hair and makeup headache by making her skin red, but the range of tiefling skin tones is “human colors + shades of red”. And do you really wanna go with a minority actor for the race that is descended from demons? You think that ones gonna go as intended?

There’s nothing particularly original about anything D&D, lore wise. It’s tolkein mixed with a hodge podge of other authors concepts. 70% of D&D parties are also bumbling, unintentionally funny idiots, and not the stoic and serious super heroes they wish they were.

Man, you must have been PISSED to find out there isn’t a haunted copy of mario 64 out there that kills you if you play it.

Did they mislead you? Or did you let your imagination run out of control and are incapable of taking personal responsibility for it?

Pretty enjoyable mystery, and mod tools for a beloved game is a pretty exciting outcome. Shame they’re catching hate because they wanted to generate a bit of mystery around something they’ve clearly been working very hard on. This level of modding was previously impossible, prior to the breakthrough that led to them…

bruh they’re out here censoring boys knees, barbie dolls are beyond scandalous.
