ME, watching a YT vidoe: "So if this boss Artificially diffic--" YES, ITS A FUCKING VIDEOGAME ITS ALL ARTIFICIAL

This might seem pedantic but it's really a term that means nothing and it's one of those terms people throw around because either they don't know how to articulate their criticism, or they just say it in the middle of a wider article becuase "idk people say that".

you would not believe your eyes

I need to stop yelling at the people yelling at itch, I think the people yelling at itch could take a moment to consider things are likely extremely bad over there right now and their resources are nonexistent, and we should all go find a mastercard executive

Remember, pornographers have always been on our side. Brave, ready to fight for our rights. Smut is our friend.

I FEEL THE NEED TO TAP THE JOHN WATERS SIGN REALLY HARD LATELY.

you guys are not actually this fucking stupid that you're about to champion disney and universal in a copyright suit right. you're not about to go Actually yes. I think Disney should be allowed to sue and claim over the likeness of their characters in random pictures online. Because AI """Art""" Bad

Misinformation about level count on box art FUDGING THE NUMBERS Wario Land 4 Over twenty enormous stages await! Wario Land 4 has 18 platforming levels. These are all fairly large and can be reasonably described as "enormous". However, to bring the number to "over 20", the six boss stages have to be counted, which each are exactly one single GBA screen in size. The game either has "enormous stages" or "over 20" of them, but definitely not both. REAL ESTATE AD EQUIVALENT Counting walk-in closets as rooms STRETCHING THE DEFINITIONS Donkey Kong Country Over 100 levels Donkey Kong Country has 33 platforming levels, 40 if boss stages are also counted. The "over 100" number comes from counting individual bonus rooms within levels as levels, which by any reasonable definition would be considered parts of a level instead. Any technical definition by which a room could be counted as a level, such as "a level is anything that is loaded into memory separately", would not reflect the general usage of that word. REAL ESTATE AD EQUIVALENT Counting cupboards as rooms BLATANT FABRICATION Super Mario World Explore 96 levels Super Mario World has 73 levels. The number 96 comes from the box counting levels with two exits as two levels each. It is generally understood that in a platformer, a "level" is a distinct area. Counting a single area as two just because it has two ways to exit it is at best incomprehensible logic and at worst deliberately misleading. REAL ESTATE AD EQUIVALENT Counting doors as rooms

Experimental post: Untruthful Mario Boxes
Occasionally, box art of Mario-related games will be misleading about the number of levels a game has. I list three examples in ascending order of "fraudulence", alongside equivalent statements if these were real estate ads.

free advice for game developers: try to make the next smash hit video game, such as grand theft auto. if you do, you'll be making more than just a video game – you'll be making millions of dollars

AI evangelists are archetypal "Ideas Guys". The ones who are convinced they've come up with the best movie/comic/game concept ever, but just need actual talented people to make it for them. The inevitable lack of interest from creatives is, in their mind, the reason they've never succeeded.

anything to do with undertale. sure theres spaghetti code but "couldnt they just rotate the bullet through code" they DID youre looking at unused sprites from a 2012 toby fox who didnt know programming

pet peeve is completely unjustified claims of "spaghetti code" by non- or amateur programmers

SUPERHOT VR had its whole story patched out. I thought about it slightly too long and fell into rabbit hole. It doesn't make sense, it's bad that it happened, and it prompts a whole bunch of naval-gazing about Art.

that is what they do yes

Lol

Which is why the advice I give is 'Do not have a Steam forum'.

A lot of devs do not know it's possible to just lock your forums entirely and have a single stickied post saying 'Come join our properly moderated and vetted Discord or fuck off, your choice'.

stealing this from tumblr bc its very relevant all the time

she did it... she left

can't take it anymore. i got to say something
Not defending the decision of boosting them, but:
Discord did not develop these apps. These are user-install apps dev'd by 3rd parties.

Discord did not "ADD" those. They've been here FOR A LONG TIME
YOU as a MOD can prevent their public messages.
