anyone choosing this moment to be all "here's what you get with republicans: bombs in the middle east" needs to grow up rapidly, considering what the last dem admin did in gaza & their current support for trump's actions right now. this is what you get with (wholly bipartisan) american imperialism

they definitely have not stopped over-investing in a faux revolutionary liberal political narrative as told by an author with abhorrent personal politics. they’re just doing it for one piece now

Every american who expressed some sentiment along the lines of "russians have a duty to overthrow their government," the cards are on the table. Do the right thing

i legit would not be able to handle this like meeting multiple publishers going oh yeah valve are just like this sometimes you know how it is, lemme call them - and still not getting a normal response from a human being

if you make games that are too much like actual art you wont just get banned but you'll also be refused keys for your own game and locked out of external bundles too, should have made a survivors clone you idiot

these days it’s illegal to say that you like a movie. you have to screenshot someone who doesn’t like the movie and caption it “everyone is so fucking stupid now”

teio step!

Screencap of a machine-translated Japanese mario wiki, stating "Some of the lines in the email sent by the real Tron are parodies of Quattro Bajeena (the temporary name used by Char Aznable in the series) from Mobile Suit Z Gundam. "So this is youth," and "A warrior must fight as long as he lives" are lines he actually uttered in the series."

In the Japanese script of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, Zip Toad (or Tron as he is named in it) is written as parody of the Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam character Quattro Bajeena

i think if you're making a show about escaping the gravity of gundam you probably shouldn't bring back a confessed domestic abuser just because he voices the guy from gundam

Home a history of RPGs...

recently i began an impossible quest. to clear my rpg backlog in release order. this is not something that is going to happen in reality (i will not finish 1000 rpgs) but hopefully in spirit, you can join me on a journey through the history of my favourite genre... this is ATB: All Time Bangers

when i eat my slop its charming, self aware and if we're being honest with ourselves a little revolutionary. a small liberation from the prison of high culture and good taste. when you eat your slop it's anti-intellectual, myopic and a self-centred rejection of art as conscious human value

Let's take a look at the reasons why you might get laid off while working on a game, shall we? Your game doesn't do well, which, sure. Harsh, but understandable. Your game is called a success by Microsoft. Microsoft then lays you off. You help make a game as successful as Marvel Rivals. You are then laid off. Your studio gets acquired for over $60 billion dollars. You are then laid off. You endure executive pressure that forces you into making games your studio isn't good at making. It doesn't go well. You are then laid off. Someone decides your portfolio needs to be aligned/reorganised/restructured to become more flexible/agile/versatile under economic/industry conditions. Meanwhile, your CEO might've spent $2 million on vintage cars. You are then laid off.

The thought of giving not just my time, but my creative output, pieces of my soul, to a company that then fires me and reserves the right to use my work in perpetuity as their "intellectual property" sounds like the most depressing situation for an artist to be in

Congrats to Blue Archive for having the funniest interpretation of the 3 Little Pigs

Felt inspired

The protagonist summons a super robot to save her two moms.

Another mecha user appears: a pink haired angel with a blue mecha.

The three mechas join forces together.

An episode preview featuring a robot doing an Obari pose.

started playing 神機覚醒ヴァルクロス (booth.pm/ja/items/645...), a highly anticipated free mecha rpg maker mz game that was developed for five years.

as for the quality of the game, i'll let the images speak for itself. i'm also fond of the battle system. this game might rule.

watched Serial Experiments Lain for the first time :o

Still their best song, that Raana guitar solo and the drums go so hard

I still remember playing Kakusei almost daily months before the movie came out, hyping myself up for it reading interviews and such and then the sheer disappointment I felt when I actually watched it
Nakashima might be washed I fear

can't stop thinking on how it's one of the few otaku stories that *really* meditates on how the usual boy-meets-girl anime narrative can lead to the worst kind of mindset. a shame umehara is now stuck doing seasonal anime slop, yet another reason VNs dying is a bad thing

that being said it's probably going to grow on me as time goes on because it's such a daring VN. ending your 60 hour long VN with 'true crime-brain is what allows capitalism and the upper classes to flourish' (almost word for word) while also doing an anti-coming-of-age story is really ballsy

i kind of hated going through Nono's route but that scene where BREAK FORTH plays while Takuru finally uses his di-sword is such a good moment. a shame about y'know, the rest of it but the same can be said to all of the other routes except for the common route and true end

YouTube video by Treize Chaos;Child OST - BREAK FORTH

as much as i take issue with some parts of chaos;child i can't deny that it really gave us possibly one of the greatest soundtracks in any visual novel, someone give takeshi abo more work www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lf-...

like, i get being frustrated at the state of the arthouse movie theater scene but the blame here is very much misplaced. also lol at some people going 'you're not owed art', great leftist discourse, man.

yeah, this post from the other site puts it well. most people who pirate movies like this would love to see it on a big screen in 70mm, 35mm or whatever but as it is now it's only available to people in first world countries (and even then, just in major cities like NY)
