Absolutely. Champions will make it super easy.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Join us.

Still looking to book people! I promise I am fun to talk to (maybe…)

Payment processors are the actual unironic devil

it starts with the weird coomer games

in a few years without appropriate pushback it'll be anything that doesn't bring glory to god

For sure. You will love it.

Welp, Mastercard strikes again.

On Fridays, we repost Timesphere while making coffee and thinking about how good video games are.

Probably going to try and start booking guests for Timesphere more frequently heading into the rest of 2024 and 25.

If any mutuals or media peeps are interested in coming on to talk about specific games or topics (doesn’t need to be just gaming,) hit me up in DMs or on Discord.

If only there was a video game franchise overtly about the dangerous rise of technolgy and the threat that the unchecked power of AI poses to the planet

The fact that we are re-experiencing this yapping sidekick discussion with Metroid of all things is wild to me.

You mean the franchise best known for engaging atmosphere with a propensity for tense moments left for the player to push through needs quips? Yeah sure lol

Should not be nervous about going to explain my work to a normie company that wants to potentially work with me, but I am stressing lol

Interview tomorrow, and hopefully getting an article up before the end of the day too. Gonna be a long one!

The NYT is beyond saving (and has been for a while) considering it continues to allow framing like this for articles in any capacity, let alone this kind.

It will always, ALWAYS fuck me up how MEGA MAN BATTLE NETWORK predicted this future!

... say less

I've had this chat with PR people and they know that supporting smaller sites and freelancers makes sense and would help build a healthier games media.

The problem is game publishers pretty much exclusively want GI cover stories or an IGN First and anything smaller isn't worth it.

This.

Vee continues her big softie era (which is actually just all era's that feature Vee.)

Tuesday? Timesphere!

This week, @counterscottgo.bsky.social and I caught up on GTA 6’s delay, Rockstar’s ongoing issues, and talked about how it might impact the rest of the industry. We also got into more AI stupidity and Nintendo's future plans in gaming and beyond!

also worth noting how much racism made everything mentioned in this thread possible.

Here’s my massive interview with Dispatch’s writer Pierre Shorrete - touching on superhero fatigue, the nature of choice in narrative games, how it started as live action, how it became a “far greater” succes than expected, and what’s next www.inverse.com/gaming/dispa...

The Indie Game Awards are officially upon us. We’ll see you on Dec.18th 🏆

And when actors went on strike over AI protections - literally fighting the bots - they wrote satirical dialogue to explain absences that was fully aligned with their own world-building, instead of replacing them with AI, or other actors.

Cognitive assonance, so cool, so classy, so appreciated 😭😭😭

Another reason to just… not use this service lol

Least surprising part of any media involvement in this.

New York Times killed Weinstein and Epstein stories but just asked Ms Rachel if she was funded by Hamas.

Probably going to try and start booking guests for Timesphere more frequently heading into the rest of 2024 and 25.
