and finally, my last gamescom preview! belmont's curse is wonderful. castlevania is fucking real and fuckng back and i'm so excited and i can even look past one of the devs lookng me dead in the eye and saying "real players — no offense, you're a journalist" (kidding) thank you again to RPS 💜

Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse proves Dead Cells' developers were the right fit for a revival in this blessing for the Belmonts

Castlevania: Belmont's Curse is the first new game in a decade and it plays with remarkable confidence despite this delay.

no, no no. that’s, i can see what you mean, but no, those aren’t editing mistakes. i’m actually drawing inspiration from an ancient form of video editing, which comes from my culture. so it’s on purpose. you’re not allowed to say it’s bad. you’re actually kind of being offensive

In Retrospect "Focus M" was the Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story of AAA video games. There's just some shit you can't do with a straight face any more for at least 10 years.

canceling all further podcast projects i am involved with. Esper Quinn is devoting all resources to creating the most massive, most engaging, most cutting edge, and most profitable live service game of all time

the Magic the Gathering story released over the past few days is maybe the best since grubb’s original The Brother’s War novel, but today’s entry is the one that has made me cry. this is the deepest we’ve ever gone on one character in Magic story, I think.

did not have “normalize vore to the point that half the women on my timeline are begging for Samus Aran to consume them” on my nintendo direct bingo card unfortunately, but right on, prey animals.

the one thing i'll say off the dome is that i feel so thoroughly for devs who are making games while their bosses force AI tools on them. but that the thing to do, as a member of the audience, to help them is to make a big stink about it so they can take that to their bosses and say, see? see?
