Wait until you see the ep they just put out. Worst trek Iโ€™ve ever seen. Worse than Janeway becoming a lizard, worse than Quark pretending to be a lady, all-time stinker

Back in 2018, I was working on an RPG inspired by the Paper Mario series. I don't think I'll end up finishing this game, but I figured I could share the demo that I had put together anyway. #gamedev

An image with a wall of text, formatted like a belligerent screed:

STOP DOING RAYTRACING
-LIGHT RAYS WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE SIMULATED
-YEARS OF GAMING yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for bouncing light more than ONCE
-Wanted to go higher anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "BAKED LIGHTING"
-"Yes please give me SLIGHTLY better visuals. Give me those slightly better visuals at a cost of HALF my frame rate" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged
LOOK at what Big Graphic Card have been demanding your money for all this time, with all the decades worth of beautiful non-RT games in your backlog.

(This Is REAL Raytracing done by REAL $1600 graphics cards)
Insert - screen shots of video games showing the diminishing visual returns of ray tracing.

"Hello I would like to run my games poorly please"
They have played us for absolute fools
