i genuinely think fighting games should not let you enter ranked on PC without a mandatory benchmark that confirms you can run it at a stable 60fps. if i fight one more laggy magneto i’m turning off crossplay

"most unimaginative game design of all time but the cool visuals make it worth it" is a wholly unrelatable way to look at games to me. art shouldn't just be the sum of its parts.
hated @jakesteinberg.substack.com’s recent article on video game cheese? you may enjoy this brutal cross-examination i conducted for your viewing pleasure. how much are we responsible for the experience we have with art, and why are we so scared of the unknown? WATCH: youtu.be/dSZA91odPl0?...

i went physical for tokon cuz amazon had it for 40 bucks for a split second but it’s been delayed in transit and i’m squidward meme-ing harder than ever
Heyyyyy! Tokon players! If you can't run the game at 60fps, wow that sucks, but get the hell offline. I've played 5 people so far and only one was running at 60fps. Horrible experience.
draconian DRM is bad and i'm not trying to be an uncritical shill for tokon but review-bombing the game because it doesn't run on linux when it was literally never advertised to seems like blatant abuse of steam's community system?
last time i fucked this much with a fantano 5/10 was yeezus i’m afraid
New video on the channel! I believe we have reached the final era of nerdcore hip-hop. I do a deep dive to explore why. Enjoy: youtu.be/05yQa6Ckftw
we continue our exploration of the beat em up vs character action spectrum... also playing LURRUNA later! twitch.tv/ziadbruh
Microsoft should exit the gaming industry and preferably my plane of existence. If BDS was not enough to convince sideliners, what MS did to id is unforgivable. Perhaps the most important western gaming studio in existence - a historied house of culture and art with genre defining talent.
i can not imagine anything more odious than 30 hours of remedy gameplay

Tapping the sign again. Start your playthough on August 1st for a magical experience!
If you haven't yet played the Boku no Natsuyasumi 2 English patch, consider starting your playthrough on August 1st. I recommend playing an in-game day every day so your playthrough syncs up with the real calendar. You won't regret it. Link to the patch here: www.patreon.com/posts/boku-n...

been casually replaying DMC5 on switch and i may have landed the most insane clip of all time
I don't know what it is about Xbox that causes breathless praise of mundane updates while they're actively annihilating their workforce. News is news, I get it, but I'm sorry to say that gushing about Fusion Frenzy being huge news during a labor bloodbath is very embarrassing.
Interesting that almost all analysis of Xbox in freefall completely ignores an organized boycott intended to harm the company financially. Meanwhile, multiple news stories on the home page all month about PlayStation boycotts that haven't even happened yet.
Game Pass was supposed to be the all-you-can-play subscription service that put Xbox on top after a disastrous generation. Instead, it's a failure that's threatening to ruin the company. https://bit.ly/4pIIUau
majora's mask should have had a cycle limit that deletes your save file once you've played the song of time too many times
i regret to inform the people that i am once again having a brat summer
going to bed knowing marvel tokon will be gone by the time i wake up
horrifying shit, please stay safe everyone
The car attack on the Berlin Pride event has been designated a mass casualty event.
tokon is very fun and very hard, hopefully this can be my main game for a long time once it's fully out
AI vibe coding wouldn't get such a bad rap if people didn't keep using it to shit out shit things that are shit I always find the pro AI comments laughable. No, I don't think making more shitty things at a faster rate is a good thing.

many reasons not to support this all of which the rest of the timeline has covered so i'll just say pretty funny to start this program off like yeah. we got the games that fucking suck
