This game got memed on something fierce by people not realizing that a joke was, actually intentionally a joke. But it's not only a great take on the Nioh formula, but a shockingly good Final Fantasy game in general. As with most Nioh-likes the DLC adds a huge amount. It evolved a lot after release

I actually have two separate, very real answers to this. Actually, I lied. Three. 1.) I want FF to be unafraid to be "too Japanese" for Western audiences again. I want the weird anime bullshit of FFs 6-13. I loved that shit. Bring back buckles and swords with some other weapon stapled to them.

Video of an ICE agent pulling a gun on a wife and mother, who is a US citizen born and raised in the area, near Bailey's Crossroads in Northern Virginia yesterday. Chillingly, they claimed she “almost ran them over” until she told them she had video proving that was a lie.
I know everything feels terrible and doomy but I've been working on surveillance issues for most of my adult life and I have never seen so much energy, momentum, and concrete VICTORIES happening as what we are seeing right now on Flock cameras and facial recognition in venues. Keep. Going.
It is important that others are aware of this

It will be worse than this! Most websites will be forced to ask you to send your ID to a third party surveillance service, adding a credit card won't be enough for most. Bluesky asks for your *social security number* if you live in Texas now, due to this shit. Call in, and kill it.

Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF. This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy. Every member of Congress must vote NO.
Please blow up the public comment (included below): BREAKING NEWS (7/15) — The administration wants to destroy Chaco Canyon without consulting Tribal Nations. It’s an irreplaceable historic & cultural site with 4,700 archeological sites that could be lost to the bulldozers of oil & gas development
"Believe in the me that believes in you" was bars in 08. Its a fucking holy anthemic prayer right now because it acknowledges that belief in yourself is hard if not impossible "Oh you don't believe in yourself, that's fine, believe in me and that'll carry us both" BARRSSSSS
Lupita Nihongo@otsumamiboy.blacksky.app · 3mo agoGurren Lagann is correct about its central conceit that the entirety of the power of the human spirit is ignited at the intersection of hope, belief, faith & trust. And that despair not only limits imagination but is also a spiritual death that leaves us helpless when facing humanity’s adversaries.
For folks asking why bother commenting because the OMB won't care: comments help build cases for the courts by explicitly laying out harms. That's why it's really important to have your comments be as specific as possible. Also, contact your senators and reps! They actually do care about this.

It has been criminally underreported but Kelsey Pfendler has just rowed solo across the Pacific Ocean from the US coast to Hawaii in record time. A 2,400-mile unsupported journey in 43 days, 17 hours, and 55 minutes. Notably beating the Men’s record by 9 whole days.
I don't mean to imply that the author's clinical training gives him unique authority to judge art, but I do find his reading really sharp and vindicating. it articulates the reasons why the "one big choice" ending schema feels so inadequate to the entire 30+ hours of world-building it resolves
