[ #gamboart #oftheDevil ] Déjà vu? I hate that feeling.

tbh i think eshmel's implementation seems to be pretty much exactly what i expected and far better than if they were a character in the events of the heroic games themselves. I vastly prefer this to byleth in fe3h. the perspective of the routes remains anchored to the four protagonists, as it should

*Nintendo direct narrator voice* "THIS! is the true protagonist!" (footage of a small little slug crawling around, no music or anything)

Happy birthday to composer Yuki Kajiura on August 6! Type-Moon works she contributed to include Kara no Kyoukai, Fate/Zero, Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works and Heaven's Feel, and Lord El-Melloi II Sei no Jikenbo. She also formed the world-renowned group Kalafina.

What if Tommy finds a Misterious Rock

i've discovered that i enjoy doing sysadmin-type work much more than i could have ever imagined though mostly when it's through nix :)

* (Kris picked up a pencil.) * (They began by sketching what they had seen behind the tree.) * (But as they sketched, the line began to err, as if the pencil had lost its way.) * (So they started again, drawing over the lines they had already made.)

i'm really proud of this policy. it's not perfect, but i think it's close to the best that was possible given all the constraints. i'm excited that this will make things easier for mods and reviewers, and hopeful that it will spark change in Rust's governance. blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/...

New viveo essay! Drag Race has one of the most incredible structures and intense demands of any competition out there - and I want to explore how (and why) it's slowly whittling away at it year after year. Drag Race & The Death of a Competition: youtu.be/yIH1-sDnIdQ #ViveoEssay

"saudi arabia owns EA" is going to be the headline you see basically everywhere for this one but "jared kushner is about to use EA as a vehicle for trump administration bribes" is equally relevant imo

EA Announces Completion of Acquisition by PIF, Silver Lake, and Affinity Partners www.ea.com/news/ea-anno...

this is so crazy. have you guys heard of this

They still do, at least Nintendo of America does. If you watch a UK Nintendo Direct you'll see that they just say "game" instead of "the [game] game" like in the US. Which means that they make the narrator record two versions of the same line every time he mentions the name of a Nintendo game.

this is gonna make me cry laughing. 137 year old company still treats Americans like idiots the good old fashioned way

#Xenosaga Pied Piper

everyone is talking about the proper Seteth reveal but nobody has mentioned that this mealtime clip was not, in fact, recycled from the last trailer. they took his fish away and gave him a pile of soggy beans and he's sad now.

Escena de la aparición de Eshmel (F) en Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave. En el Nintendo Direct solo se vio la versión masculina.

i do not hear back from someone for 10 mins: damn, i guess they hate me. thats fair tho, i am annoying 10 mins after i receive a message: oh god oh no oh shit what if i say something annoying, better respond later, ill surely remember

the thing about theodora is that she has a lot of seiros-like shapes. and this appeals to me

okay i went through the whole direct a second time looking at everything and yeah i think this one's gonna go wild i really hope it has maddening mode on day one because engage's was SO fun and well-designed even for a first playthrough

i will die on the hill that this is a prequel but some posts are too funny anyhow
