Big Walk comes out TOMORROW, August 4. "But what time??" we hear you ask. Well! Let us tell you: • on Switch 2 and PS5: late morning-ish for your console region* • on PC and Mac: 6am PDT exactly (11pm AEST)

the horror of being 10 minutes into an article and reading a sentence that reveals that the author has absolutely no idea what they're talking about

Does Inspector Gadget struggle with the loss of his own humanity? Did he trade his flesh for steel simply to be a machine of the state? Does he not yearn for more?

so many times now, i've been struggling to figure out a character, and then a single funny drawing of them basically solves them for example, selene's "neutral" and "squint" faces turned out to be like... the entire tone of sunshine heavy industries

selene from sunshine heavy industries lookin Neutralselene squinting

i have given up on understanding how a heat pump can deliver more heat than its energy input. "it moves the COLD heat from the outside and puts it inside where it's WARM," ok buddy just put the btu's in the bag

my long term goals? i was always hoping to be a guy who unclogs a storm drain with a big puddle collecting on top of it. other than that idk

i actually think media about powerscaling is kind of fun... it just needs to... have an ending. writing a story about a scary godlike villain and then being told to write 80 hours of filler where they get in fistfights with the protags sounds like creative hell
