A closeup view of an ornate cuirass and tasset, showing heart-shaped designs along the edges of the metal panels.

An extremely ornate ceremonial halberd head showing etched and blackened designs with various plants, mythical creatures, and heraldic designs.

A closeup of the shoulder intersection of the cuirass, pauldron, and bevor of a piece of 1500s field armor. Some ornate etching of the crucifixion is visible in the lower right corner on the cuirass.

Here's a small sampling:

Shit is absolutely out of control, even for someone like me who desperately craves new games. Every single game comes out some degree of fucked up and gets massive improvements over a year (or more, looking at you Obsidian and Owlcat and CDProjeckt) and sells for half the price. It's insane.

They're nimble. Watch your back.

obviously not the best way to experience it by anyone's account but I love the steam blurb for daggerfall

No, run!

By global standards, Mamdani is a pretty standard liberal. By American standards, he's the second coming of Lenin.

But he's doing a great job of reminding people that a politician can be a civil servant who wants to make things better for everyone without having to knock anyone down in the process.

Do not go quietly! Keep struggling!

Dragon's Dogma 2 and Fallout 4 both feel like The Prisoner (1967) but I say that with admiration for the former and abject malice towards the latter

Dragon's Dogma 2 is about being Number Six in a fantasy context and Fallout 4 is about wanting to do something else and it keeps bringing you back to the fucking village

A skeletal figure floats off the ground, wrapped in a cape made of autumn leaves. It wields a scythe adorned with a harvest of gourds.

Talk not to me of blasphemy, man; I’d strike the sun if it insulted me.

To all the people saying, "I can't trust players not to metagame and cheat," and your players are not actual children, then you're most likely the problem.

I actually really dislike this comparison because to me the core experience of Dark Souls 2 is the fact that it controls and feels like shit. Silksong feels like a joy to control, whereas DS2 was ambitious in putting out an entire game that controlled like you were underwater.

Alpine Ibexes climb nearly 90 degree angles to lick salt deposits of of mountainsides. They're morally compromised animals with deviated souls.

one of the funniest things about ffxiv's writing to me is how, over the course of ARR-EW, the main cast became so enormously skewed towards white hair by process of elimination that, if you had white hair on your character, it started feeling like nier

im sorry man, there just some shit that matters to more than money. the ability for all people to have equal access to art and science, through any means necessary, is one of those things. your publisher is your enemy, not your audience

Patchy weed

jokes aside it is so completely spiritually decroded to be anti 'free preservation of books online' in the face of what is going on with censorship online and offline right now

the reputation TERA "enjoys" post-mortem is very interesting to me because while it's absolutely true there was a lot of female character focused ecchi that you either liked or ignored and the combat was good, this always skips over the fact that high elf males were inferno level fujoshi appeasement
