SHUT UP

Are videogames art or are video games not art

Dude they’re making a new Star Wars trilogy, how cool is that

Everyone who uses photoshop regularly prefers phtooshop from 10+ years ago though... what is he even talking about!?

Finally modern audiences will get to experience what Star Wars was like before they got an Englishman to dub over Alec Guinness’s New Jersey accent

I would get mad if anyone played any differently

That’s right

We are not doing narratology vs. ludology today, fuck off

How is seeing films in a cinema with family and friends in the best format possible not 'consumer friendly'?

how terrible must you be at your job that you tank a 100+ year old company within three years

look I’m not an evangelical but “a guy calling himself the Beast wants control of your earthly wealth” feels like some kind of sign, no?

dude was so all about the metaverse that he renamed the whole company, only to burn billions on a venture that anybody with sense knew was destined to fail. it is laughable that he remains in charge. merit simply does not exist

Looking into this Horses game and there’s some horrifying shit there, it makes perfect sense it was banned. It strays from God and we cannot let this out into the world

beastbank bagholder in 2026: what the fuck i didn't even know an IRA could have a 'mold problem' what does that even mean where's my money
stans in reply: It's normal for banks to lose money from water damage. You're picking on Mr Beast because you hate charity and love being poor

The stuff I’ve been reading about Prime 4 is iffy, but I’d still be willing to give it a go if it wasn’t A HUNDRED AND TEN FREAKING DOLLARS
The cheapest I can get it is ~$85, which is more than I ever spent on a Switch 1 game (and requires me spending $135 on vouchers)

Not when they said One Piece was watches for a bazillion hours, that was me

Well it does say retro

The cover art for a disturbing videogame featuring a human character with a horse head permanently affixed to their body.

Today I learned that both Steam and Epic also refused to distribute this game. Truly a broken industry.

After 40 years of adventure games, Ron Gilbert pivots to outrunning Death Interview: Storied designer talks lost RPG, a 3D Monkey Island, “Eat the Rich” philosophy.

A tough read when even a vet of the games industry can’t get funding.

Personally I think it’s good to ban games that forget to put disclaimers that point out that the developers don’t endorse any morally objectionable content
How can I possibly enjoy a game while shackled by the knowledge that the people working on it might think killing or stealing is good

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT

And boy are your things stranger

Netflix’s numbers have to be completely made up, because otherwise I would surely have seen ONE person post SOMETHING about the new season of Stranger Things, right?

I think about this a lot, I feel like it’s deeply related to generative AI

Some things in life are supposed to be a little bit hard! Some things should require effort! Human beings should routinely hear “no” and “not yet” and “you can’t do that” and “that is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard”

"Valve has no obligation to publish your art" idk man maybe as one of the handful of people who can live off covering this industry you should have an obligation to not be a giant piss baby about it

It's a complex, critically praised, but otherwise unremarkable book, released to no controversy and no backlash. No bookstores refused to sell it, and it even got translated from its original Spanish in to English.

If it were a video game every major platform would refuse to sell it.

The cover to Augustina Bazterrica's Tender is the Flesh. On a solid red backdrop the lower half of a womna's face looks to the left. Above the bridge of her nose the human is abruptly cut off and replaced with a silhouette of a cow's head and antlers.

In Agustina Bazterrica's Tender is the Flesh, a virus has killed all non-human animals and the only source of meat left is other humans. Society has adapted by, effectively, creating a class of people who are no longer people - 'special meat.'

bummer situation but grim lol at this exception on the epic games store
