I have now uninstalled and reinstalled Heart of the Machine five separate times.

Being forced to replay the same game components over and over to find points of variation is interesting... for about thirty hours. Then it gets frustrating.

For a minute there I thought Joe Biden finally snapped

Yesterday I threw Semir Gerkhan at an alien fireteam and used his death to bait them into a missile attack.

Xenonauts 2 is awesome.

There is a significant chance that Epstein just straight up screamed racist slurs at someone in a MW2 lobby and this is how I find out?!?

Space Warlord Baby Trading Simulator is a game where you invest in baby futures

It's also a game which makes me want to put a three-round burst through my monitor.

It has occured to me that I have let this account lay dormant without even updating the pin, so let's fix that: Consume mechwarrior.

Guess who's been radio silent while making a thumbnail for a friend's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zz0FHzLJBVM? Now go watch my friend justify the 420€ he spent on my Magnum Opus.

Been playing a lot of Project Silverfish, and I gotta say: There is a success story in the making here. Obviously too early to tell, as EA games can implode in a million ways, but any game that gets me to yell "Fuck this!" while running away from a firefight over an irradiated ball gets props.

I get me, the atheist-raised atheist scientist, is probably taking this too personally. But it's the most hypocritical message of all time.'

"The species is meant to die, just let go! You're just trying to be immortal, that's sin!"

bro fuck you I'm going to go prevent a couple million casualties.

So I played Nine Sols, and the game's good, no question about it, a solid 8.5/10, but it's also been my introduction to Taoist worldviews, and...
"Just slot into your place in the world"
"die whenever the Tao requests don't try to live"
"science is ultimately sinful"

Burning this motherfucker down.

I was about to crash out horribly, but it turns out that there is a cure for every ill that plagues me - specifically, playing at lawyers in a very silly friendslop/steamer bait game for an evening. 10/10 Would defend my client from the accusation of bombing donetsk children again.

"I need to get laid or get in a fight"

"What you need is a girlfriend!"

No actually I think you'll find that my mindset runs directly counter to the concept of actually sharing my life with someone.

I loved playing suzerain because it very cleanly described my relationship with about 50% of all jounralistic institutions.

LA is on fire, water is wet, get that shit off my feed. We should be talking about important issues instead.

Like the fact one of the Qatargate people got actually arrested. God, I hope they nail Arena for money laundering.

I HAVE PERSONALLY KILLED MILLIONS OF SQUID TROOPERS. GLORY TO SUPER EARTH.

Super china is just fucking built different.

"Why don't you hang out with vtubers" they're filtering them for you. never let a capitalist choose the mentally ill women you're allowed to hang out with.

Editing the next video is incredibly difficult, I'm really not hitting the groove. Game in question is great, though.

The 'deprofessionalization of video games' was on full display at PAX East PAX East felt like a warning: explosively successful games by solo devs and small teams are great, but it could lead to a dearth of vital specialists.

"Guys, smaller companies that aren't accessible through established industry contacts I have are succeeding instead of them! This is a disaster!"

God I fucking hate game journalists.

OH. OH I GET IT NOW.

The woke dectector curator is hammering out bangers and everyone's stopped paying attention, this cannot stand. I challenge you to find a piece of media that wanks the "indomitable american spirit" more than Homefront, yet they declared it too woke for... containing women.

I HAVE DONE NOTHING BUT MURDER SQUIDS FOR SIX DAYS, AND ALL I GOT WAS THE BATTLE OF SUPER EARTH HAPPENING ANYWAYS.

Happy mother's day to everyone who had to go at it with a mom who didn't love them. I promise the barrage of ads about how terrible a child you are for not giving your abuser chocolate will pass, too.

Maybe nobody gives a fuck, but this weekend, Pilsen celebrates it's own liberation day; the only city in Czechia to be liberated by US troops instead of Soviet ones. An important distinction for all who lived it, as unlike with the Soviets, the US never occupied the country. Truth Prevails.

Corporations will always hate anything with a human face because it's ultimately something they can't control.

The funniest bit about Polygon and Giant Bomb deciding to become slop sites and firing all their talent is that despite my endless annoyance at the way these sites operated, this is unequivocally worse. I'm going to miss being annoyed at weird takes from actual human beings.

Strange Scaffold's newest game is essentially a six-hour meta in-joke about the gaming industry as a whole. Unfortunately, unlike clickolding, it's not going to work this time.

Because people are asking the very valid question of "why not just play Huniepop" the second they see the match-3 thing.

To be fair, most of the people who write for Polygon have interacted with a total of three videogames in the past year. They really just don't have the frame of reference.

Expedition 33 is the first J'RPG of our time.

I Am Your Beast is possibly the best thing that came out last year. You should play the fuck out of it even if you're not interested in my videos (despite this one being my best one yet).
