I've been really enjoying Big Walk but I keep seeing post about how unique and special and incredible and accurate and perfected its vibes of just hanging out with your friend on an adventure in nature is, and I kept thinking its not like THAT crazy and unheard of cause 1/?

yeah u know, that leftist movement I remember that happens to conform exactly to stereotypes conservatives who bought every social media platform kept saying. this definitely won't happen to my new cool leftist movement

It's interesting that as the game industry goes through yet another seismic shift, we're seeing more and more games that are like toys. We seem to be moving away from large games inspired by the scale of blockbuster movies w/ "cinematic" experiences, and more to small-scale gadgets & sims.

It's kinda wild to me that there's now 4 upcoming Horror Stardews I'm looking forward to and each look completely unique and fascinating in their own way. Welcome to Elderfield, Grave Seasons, Neverway, and now Village in the Shade.

The developers of the Yomawari games have made a Stardew like, and it's not currently available in English, but they'll be updating it soon, and I am extremely intrigued.

My channel is about as small as it gets, so I figured this would top out around ~1.2k lifetime views max. It's already cracked 5k in 48 hours which I know is still microscopic for YouTube but it's huge for me and more than I dared to expect. Thank you all for the support!!

🚨 RENOVATIONS COMPLETE! 🚨 After 34 months, today I unveil the final form of the single largest creative project of my life. THE NAMCO MUSEUM MUSEUM: EVERY GAME, EVERY COLLECTION, EVERY PORT! I've meticulously studied & presented EVERY single instance of Namco's historic game collections, for you!

also strangely classist to be painted as "desperate for money" because in the video I acknowledged youtube is a job and like 99% of people I do have financial needs. I wrote the video I wanted to write. sorry for spoiling the illusion that we do this all for headpats lol

kind of bummed by the immediate hostility of some of hbomb's community to using his takes as a bouncing off point for a broader discussion of something, given he has done exactly that many times in videos

Just to be clear on this article, the position I took isn't "developers need to be more brave" but "funding needs to be more brave". Developers make all the cool stuff, just because they want to - the funding side hits it with market research and fear and growth targets and shareholders.

We need games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Balatro, and Peak as a cure for the "fear" in the industry, say experts www.gamesradar.com/games/we-nee...

I kinda get using the work "content" to describe more utilitarian or entertainment(tm) work but even now that its essentially become the default term i get uneasy and a little sad when peolle describe their very unique personal vulnerable art as content, thats not content bro thats your soul??
