In Resident Evil the titular evil house is capitalism

Okay but hell yeah

"Bloodborne needs to be remade" is one of those things that drives me nuts because it's right there. You can buy it now and then play it right after. We won the battle of it being always available and you are crying about frame rates. You are weak.

Bluepoint’s Demon’s Souls was a technical marvel but a pretty clumsy adaptation of From’s work and art.

I don’t blame them for saying please don’t do that to Bloodborne.

The GUTSPILLs are LANDING 💛

Leaving this here for others who would also like to log off and read some Real Game Feelings: picolitre.press/shop/p/pre-o...

(especially as an antidote to all the horrifying games industry news this week 🫠)

Give Grace Ashcroft a vacuum, but woke

Screenshot from Resident Evil Requiem. An ornate bar setting with a bowl of fruit on the counter but the apples in the bowl are just fucking huge, disproportionately big.

Capcom: You get those apples finished?
Environment artist: Sure did boss, real fuckin big just like you asked.
Capcom: what

it is increasingly terrifying and depressing that independent journalism is truly, not an exaggeration, all we fucking have now

and good luck earning a living in independent journalism

Calling it now I better not see any of you taking AI prompt/AI editor jobs. Don’t tell me you got bills to pay because games media pays so low you can definitely get a job that pays the same or more doing something else.

The old Charizard is dying and the new Flamigo is struggling to be born: now is the time of pocket monsters.

“Something to do” brutal

I don't think you guys should be bringing up real world events when it comes to Godzilla, it's disrespectful. It's a movie about a big lizard and nothing more.

OH. This is a whole other dance now. That’s a dogshit take that warrants some interrogating

I would love to fire embargoes into the sun

Oh for sure, we’re totally agreed. I just haven’t seen much of what you’re describing happening today.

Good faith being the key here

I think a games greatness shouldn’t measured by a meta critic score, but rather by the widest gap in takes we can create in one day

Resident evil and its relationship to the WW2 bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima vs telling Leon Kennedy that you’re on prEP is about as wide as it can get, folks

If one review attempting to discuss the *overt* politics of a series makes you trip over yourself to mock it then I think you might need to reevaluate what it is you value about games. I don’t particularly care if you do just want feel-good-toys, but let’s cut the posturing.

You either want video games to be treated like art or you don’t, selective guffawing is incredibly grating. You are not serious people!

Tale as old as time

Appreciate the boost!

Two panel meme of I think Kim Kardashian. Top panel, she’s sitting in a reality tv confessional style shot with the caption “I’m like dropping hints that I’m moving to Perth” Bottom panel, she’s in a social setting with the caption “I’m moving to Perth”

If anyone knows of any arts admin/editorial work going in WA now would be a really lovely time to shoot me a message 🙏

Anderson’s final Resident Evil film was an aggressive retcon to portray Umbrella as a violently accelerationist organisation led by a catholic zealot who envisioned a new world led by the ultra wealthy and built by slave labour. Ten years ago.

Oh are we talking about activating Pokémon trainers? Cause

Gas leak cinema

Lord of the Rings “and my axe” meme but with “and my whole pussy” edited in its place

This is also true. The gesture of quality is refreshing in a drought, I get it.

I just don’t think so; it has the aesthetics and talking points of an above average one but what it’s actually saying and doing with those things? Nope.

Songs slap though.
