The Alla Prima thing is why I was terrible at watercolor. I had great respect for those artists, but I needed time to noodle.

Oh damn, I did not know that about the drying effect. I just remembered I went to school with artists who admired Leyendecker, and they found gouache was a good medium to emulate that work.

Preemptively I wanna say I love Alpha Flight, even though I know it was created by Americans.

One of my most anticipated games this year. Congratulations!

JSRF is one of my great regrets for missing. I was very much engrossed in survival horror back then, so Eternal Darkness. Agree on Clock Tower, was not intuitive.
How do you play JSRF now? Is it hardware only?

I regret not trying to gouache. It has some of the impact of oils without the mess.

I thought the original was a retro aesthetic, no?

Thereโ€™s always a sliver of people in every age that romanticizes things from before they were born- and I love them for it.

Youtube I closed that video because I didn't want to watch it, not because i was hoping to see a smaller version of it still playing in the corner of my screen.

If you told me everything google did was designed around how to piss me off, I would believe it.

I can see now that the WB studio closures earlier this year were an effort to streamline the company by clueless management to potentially sell to an equally clueless buyer.

We were pitching a hell of an awesome game 3 years ago, I canโ€™t imagine Netflix taking any risks WB themselves wouldnโ€™t take.

Looking for gifts for young relatives this season.

If I find one more gift labeled โ€œartsyโ€, Iโ€™m gonna stab a motherfucker with a palette knife.

Ted Sarandos, cozying up beforehand to bypass actual antitrust legal issues. The privilege and lack of scruples in the 1% never stops, especially when the rest of the suckers admire them.

Why Now? Netflix Co-Chiefs Explain $82.7 Billion Warner Bros. Deal Logic and Changes Ahead Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters addressed many of Wall Street's outstanding questions in a call with analysts Friday morning.

Ted Sarandos, blatantly lying about the detriment of monopolies. On the Netflix WBD merger:

โ€œThis deal is pro-consumer, pro-innovation, pro-worker, itโ€™s pro-creator, itโ€™s pro-growthโ€ฆโ€

Historically proven false claims before growth - the only goal of this creative disaster.

Epic. Some of these shots remind me of Soviet era fantasy.

I thought the stylized aesthetic of the world building perfectly meshed with the parkour mechanics. In 2009, that stylization was starting to vanish from AAA.

In spirit, Mirrors Edge is a contender. Even though there is *a gun* itโ€™s the most irrelevant part of the game.
