The reason Harry Potter Adults are so bad is because for a long time there were totally normal Harry Potter Adults who did things like use their fandom to raise money for charity but then Joanne went absolute horses and all the normal adults ditched the fandom so the only ones left are total ghouls.

Spider-Noir was surprisingly good. Despite being a spinoff of a comic relief side character, it’s a shockingly straight forward, solid noir story but with super powers, which turned out great. Nick Cage is the only one playing it remotely silly, but even he still feels like he fits into the world.

Kinda sucks that people aren’t hyping up the Tom Holland double header of Odyssey and Spiderman. Is it cause there’s no cute name? Cause I’ll be honest, I tried to come up with one myself and gave up, so I get it.

GDQ has me reminiscing on how Clair Obscur is so literally just Paper Mario TTYD reinvented from first principles, it has me wondering what other “successors” like this exist, where the core is exactly the same even when all the aesthetics are entirely different.

Being on day three of scouring computer forums and finding somebody who had your same problem but eventually gave up is like seeing a dead body on Everest

the problem with the games industry is that it makes money in a sustainable way by creating stuff that people want to pay for this is in contrast to how big capital would prefer to make money, by trying to scale fake numbers to infinity using gambler brained investors lured in by impossible claims

asha sharma going "we want 1 billion players a day" a nice reminder that these execs are fundamentally incapable of understanding that their customers do not have infinite money or even just that time is finite. they just think you haven't been fed the right marketing yet to get you on board
