“You know Sweet Anita. You’ve seen her streams, stumbled across her Twitter account, or watched clips of her on TikTok.”

No, I don’t, and no, I haven’t. I have never heard of this person before now. The whole twitch-streamer sphere really doesn’t grasp how insular it is, does it? If you’re not parts of that ecosystem,…

It is also, sadly, the first Nintendo game to hit the $70 threshold.

The original Legend of Zelda MSRP’d at $49.99 back in 1986. That’s about $135 in 2022 dollars. 

The logic being used to cancel this game is ridiculous, if your going to look at it through this lens, people might as well stop reading Jalopnik as they post content on VW and Mercedes who have for certain supported WWII German Regimes.  

I might have the unpopular opinion here, but I feel like Rowling is rich no matter what, and it doesn’t matter if she gets more rich or less rich. She’s still rich.

Firehouse: Like warm Subway with better bread and takes forever.

Is it really that hard to pay for the things you use?

Back in the mid-nineties when I was just starting out with VO work, my VO coach told me to pick one of those two VO ‘types’ so she knew how to market me to clients - I can’t imagine much has changed.

That seems like a rather silly attitude to have. There are two kinds of VAs:

Why did you not mention using newspaper? 100% streak free clean every single time. It’s an age-old tip passed down by my grandmother. Try it before you comment.

You’re titling your articles wrong.

Well, I´m not a racist who generalizes what one man does on the whole group of the same volk.

You really don’t like her, do you? He’s apparently had multiple affairs but she’s the ‘triflin one, eh?

Cancel culture and wokeness is a plague on our country and does nothing but create more division, hate, and animosity. It has to stop. It has solved nothing. Diversity comes naturally as we have already seen over the past few years. You can't force it. Your hatred will not win.

Shaking My Damn Head!

The Anderson case is vastly different in that he caused an accident and fled police while being high on cocaine. Being tased while under drug intoxication is not going to end well for the patient... Even the released police cams and stander-by videos show the highly irrational behavior. Nothing mysterious about dying…

Step one of any public art project should always be showing a mock-up to the oversight committee and some focus groups without any context given and the artist in another country to see whether it actually gets anything it’s supposed to across when encountered in the context it’s designed to (bumping into cold when…

This is a really cool mod for a friend of mine who is visually impaired. I normally help her by reading text in games for her, but this way she can at least go through dialogue without help needed.

Could be a case where the first game’s appeal stemmed primarily from its novelty. XCOM-style Mario with guns is a unique premise. A sequel loses that novelty. Same thing happened with Mirror’s Edge, Hotline Miami, Dying Light, Dishonored, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Pillars of Eternity, A Plague Tale, etc. All cult…

AI is just another tool for artists. It’s a very powerful tool but to get images that are useful for commercial use still takes the talent and experience of human artists even if they choose to use AI to help them. I am very thankful that no one protested the use of computers to generate art a few decades ago even…
