New Post - In Defence Of Giving A Shit "What's happening [with House House and the IGF] is not unusual, it's not extreme, it's not unfair and it's not a 'public flogging'. What's happening is exactly what is supposed to happen in creative communities." www.possibilityspace.org/blog/posts/i...
re: the big walk AI controversy, like I think the fully anti-AI view has to be to abandon the vast majority of modern gaming, right? like nintendo has gotten praise for coming out against AI on the assets side but I highly doubt they're treating code the same way, for instance
Hey that's how the Games were played. Fair?
BREAKING: PlayStation is canceling Fairgames, the online shooter from Haven Studios that was announced in 2023. No jobs will be cut as a result of the cancellation, PlayStation says. Haven will instead support other games in the org. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
I genuinely don’t think I’ve seen anyone say you can’t play it, or that anything bad should happen to the devs aside from not getting a subjective award, but suddenly becoming a little pro-fascist tool because you feel a bit uncomfy about enjoying a game is, by definition, not very punk rock of you
To the kid on Twitter who beat everybody to the 16-minute nitpick video about OoT Remake: thanks for proving my point about how presenting kneejerk critiques stripped of context through the "Crowbcat style" is a BAD, one-sided way of properly judging anything
Despite a handful of changes I don't agree with, the Ocarina Remake really is a great, lovingly-made reinterpretation of the OG - and it's important to make that clear before the Crowbcat & Nerrel videos come out and everybody starts parroting their nitpicks as objective facts
If they do make a Majora remake I gotta wonder if they make Young Link taller or not.
Credit where credit is due but Zanpakuto being a manifestation of your soul is a good literary device. Every time Ichigo's sword is broken functionally changes him and we literally see that. He gets a lot of crap for being relatively static but a sword is still just a sword.
I am gonna be honest man it is getting hard to know what to do with any of this any more.

When it comes to actual serious issues, I don’t care about potentially being wrong or right in an argument or whatever. I genuinely care about resolving the issue. I’m gonna be wrong sometimes in that process. As long as I’m humble about it at every step, that’s okay.
Fall congestion has demotivating me from recording voice, but on the flip side, the long awaited Final Fight commentary will be a dense scripted Matthewmatosis style affair
The hostility to House House feels a bit like, people know they cannot control the giants (like Fortnite) so they channel their energy/anger into beating a smaller studios they can control. It just looks wildly out of proportion to their sins.

Younger me would've been so stoked for a Platinum Naruto game that went up to Sasuke Retrival Arc Now older me is mad that all their staff left and what remaining staff they have is working on a second TMNT game
Player tip: look up the OSTs for older visual novels, trading card games sims, i.e. "static" games for mood setting/easy listening bg music for your eassy vid about the quiet sadness of karnov....
King Ghidorah be moving too well for something that big. Bro was running the schmix on Goji it was sick.

Look man Star Fox Zero gets Star Fox more than people realize.
Wii U fans are actually the most baffling type of Nintendo fans. At least nostalgia bait accounts posting for other consoles show pictures of the games, Wii U fans only care about their epic kino frutiger aero UI. I never see y'all post gameplay or even title screens.
Sakurai remaining skeptical of this is beast mode.
Smash Bros. and Kirby creator Masahiro Sakurai says he has never used AI, and is sceptical of its usability: “There’s more [to game development] than simply coming up with an idea [...] we can come up with better ideas by thinking about them for ourselves" (Read more at Kotaku)
Majora’s Mask feels like a work so intrinsically tied to its Moment (1 year dev time, Miyamoto as an omnipresent herald of misery, the national anxiety around North Korean aggression at the time, the Nintendo 64’s sales woes, the contemporary rethink of RPG systems in games like Moon) that i really>
Dave Chapelle getting canceled for a Charlie Kirk joke? Finally, a comedian catching heat for punching down.
If you are anti-remake but pro-“every game should get infinite sequels” Then you need to reflect a little bit more
