I spent the weekend trying to process what's happening in my city of Minneapolis, Minnesota by creating this video. youtu.be/W1dyNcRGRXY

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

Being an American in 2026 is nearly synonymous with a persistent feeling of helplessness and embarrassment. That’s why I want to do something. As announced on last week’s episode of All Things Nintendo, I’ll be donating 100% of my Patreon earnings for January to the ACLU.

No worries: take care of yourself, JellyBunnz, and see you tomorrow! 🫂

My understanding is that Square Enix retains the rights and intends to continue working primarily with Deck Nine on the franchise.

As much as I enjoyed Life Is Strange 1 & 2, I felt True Colors demonstrated that D9 can make a really fantastic LiS game. I'll be very optimistic for more Max Caulfield

Not everything needs to be content, but *if* that conversation made it someplace as a casual discussion segment, I'd love to hear each of your thoughts.

I finished the original trilogy last year and think it would be super cool to get your reactions on that full arc

But no worries either way 👍

This is a very personal one for me. Sharing is deeply appreciated.

Congratulations, Brian!

Based on the recent Hitman games, I'm really looking forward to First Light. It really feels like the perfect developer for the IP.

Otherwise, I'll be very curious to see if Kingmakers releases this year. And I'll definitely be checking out the full releases of Timberborn and Town To City!

I was always partial towards the ankylosaurus and Rowlf.

Imagine removing the word "Switch" from All Things Nintendo.

He's so thoroughly ingrained throughout in the Epstein files that, even with priority attention from the Department of Justice and reportedly hundreds of FBI agents tasked to redact his name, they didn't come close to finding them all.

This section of the article from The Escapist reads, "This was enough to cause a huge uproar in the gaming community for some reason. Yes, AI is cringe and taking jobs and using water and oftentimes creatively backrupt. But let's be real: All games use AI in some way. From NPC behavior to object texture to coding to tracking developer tasks, all games use AI. It's just the way it is now." The words "NPC behavior" are highlighted, as this appears to be an intentional misrepresentation of the objections people have to AI use in games. No one has been complaining about developing AI to drive grunts in Halo, leaders in Civilization, or NPCs in an Elder Scrolls game; people are opposing AI learning modules that steal content from artists and writers so they can be trained to replicate the work.

In addition to the false accusation, the writer appears to be conflating "NPC behavior," like the tactics for a band of goblins in BG3, with the use of LLMs to repurpose creative content from writers and artists without credit or compensation.

It's a *wild* misrepresentation of the issues at hand.

Nice: I have Shinobi and Dispatch in the Steam cart already,but I'll take a look at Cosmic Invasion and Ragebound too!

Any thoughts on Frostpunk 2 or its DLC that's come out? I'd be curious for your experience with it!

I put a lot of effort into this list, pls share😓

This thread about a company that is gaining fame and influence for buying the rights to a popular IP, then leasing those rights out to others to do all the work of making them valuable reminds me:

I am pleased to announce that I am now famous as the best Pioneers of Pagonia player in the world.

Preferably involving muppets.

If anyone can find out exactly what really happened between Geoff Keighley and Miss Piggy and then carry that knowledge to his grave, it's Benoit Blanc.

I haven't tried RE7 in VR, but from everything I've read, it's a perfect recipe for violent nausea. Too many times where the game forcibly takes control of the character's POV, causing a severe disconnect between your eyes and actual head motion.

So suffice to say: you are definitely not alone!

PSP version for me. Such an addictive game! I remember discovering that one of the hero abilities didn't work properly which kind of dampened my enthusiasm, but I sunk tons of time into before that.

I was very excited for Galactrix which was a sci-fi take, but it didn't hit the same for me.

I saw that @misterbinky.bsky.social had recommended The Staircase in the Woods by Chuck Wendig as a good horror novel.

Haven't read it myself yet, but it'll probably be next up after my current book is done.

We'll DM you a Steam code for the fantastic and underrated Shinobi: Art of Vengeance if you support MinnMax on Patreon at the $5 tier before 12/15/25. www.patreon.com/c/minnmax

This offer is for brand NEW supporters only, no upgrading or returning supporters. We'll update on Bluesky if we run out!

If you're tired of Trump's pathetic attempts to racebait everyone's attention away from his devastating tariff inflation, double-digit health insurance increases, and still-unreleased Epstein files, then tune in tomorrow and help MinnMax support our awesome Somali community he's attacking!

Podcasting about ASURA'S WRATH AKA That Game Where You Use A Sword in Your Mouth B/C Your Arms Were Ripped Off Peak video game in 2012 and peak video game now.

Me and my boi @misterbones.bsky.social are back at it with another banger. Give us a listen yall
