Someone’s sharp X68000 setup with those Roland monitors and it’s playing the game Cotton

Serial Experiments Lain is a cautionary, deeply political story about how cool the Sharp X68000 looked, and what would happen if computers kept looking like that.

Stars aligned in mysterious way lately, as I've been exposed to multiple great pieces on Eastern European culture & how they create / perceive certain games. So I'll make a little thread to share them 🧵

I love Chinese & Taiwanese Wuxia RPGs, not only for the cool martial arts setting but also for playing differently from Western & Japanese RPGs.

I often get asked for recommendations. I had a big thread on Twitter, so here's a new one!

Here's my favorites available in English (officially or not) 🧵

@guilewinquote.bsky.social hello, I remembered last year that you wanted to try Holosseum, but you didn't find where you can play the arcade cabinet.
Just found out someone in Texas now possess it and repaired it. www.youtube.com/shorts/H1zSO...

We at WarpZone are a publishing company that writes and register the history of video games in Brazil. We have already published over 60 books on the subject. Here it is for anyone interested.

Lordbound The drums of war are beating inside the Druadach Valley. After two hundred years of isolation the valley has restored its severed connections to the provinces of Skyrim and High Rock, exposing its wit

People have always haunted me with me:
"Hey Keano, when is your amazing Skyrim expansion named Lordbound coming out?"

How about today? LORDBOUND IS OUT NOW!

A Skyrim expansion 11 years in the making:
🌲60+ HOURS OF ADVENTURING
🏰 50 DUNGEONS
❓ 40 QUESTS

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (2021)

YouTube video by mantron Half-Life, Architecture, and Anime Girls

Very neat and extensive video shining a spotlight on prolific Half-Life modder Koumei Satou, who stuck to his guns even when the internet got very weird and sometimes angry about his (somewhat angular) anime girls turning up in mods for very 'western' games.

Oh, Scroll of Taiwu is reaching 1.0 and getting an official English release:
youtu.be/9NNjFUn2fZw?...

It's quite an important RPG! It came out in Early Access in 2018 and was the first big Wuxia hit on Steam - AFAIK it's also the 1st indie game sell over 2M units on Steam without an English release

Haunted School is incredible, one of my favourite things ever. A bunch of kids get trapped in, you guessed it, a haunted school and subsequently we get gross monster puppets, living anatomy dummies running around, giant bug mutations, a cameo by the slit-mouthed woman, and so much more!

Oh look, Fallout: The Sum / Nous Aurons reached 2.0: www.moddb.com/mods/thesum/...

It's an anarchist Fallout Tactics mod where you pick a survivor (a blind girl, a boy & his dying father, etc) and wander the wasteland, exploring communities that emerged to fulfill a personal goal and/or settle down

Tomb Raider mod - Hashep Oasis

Quake mod - Dwell

X-Com Mod: The X-Com Files

I've talked a lot about seemingly immortal mod scenes like Doom, Tomb Raider, Quake or X-Com. But I'm sure there's countless others that I'm barely aware of.

So, creators (or just mod-likers) of Bluesky: Tell me about a cool niche mod scene that YOU love and is alive and kicking to this day!

I am not going to stop banging on the censorship and itch/steam beat until MC/Visa/Stripe actually say something. And frankly I'm considering focusing more on covering more weird and very sexual games. There was a moment when this all started and felt doomed, but, if I'm going out, I go out swinging
