The Legend Of Zelda didnโ€™t create a genre, but it did help define it 40 years ago The Legend Of Zelda helped introduce the then-young action RPG genre to a generation of video game fans.

My latest for @theavclubgames.bsky.social is on the 40th anniversary of original The Legend of Zelda, and its role as a streamliner of the complicated, demanding, and burgeoning action RPG. This classic did not come out of nowhere, but was to action RPGs what Dragon Quest was for turn-based ones.

white people and people in the global north (i say as both) like to act as if we're the only ones on the planet with the inner complexity to both Hate Our Governments and also Not Want Other Countries To Bomb Us About Our Bad Governments

"Defensive strikes" in the country that was attacked first, because of nuclear weapons that don't exist.

I know it's a joke at this point but we're basically in 1984 doublespeak right now.

It is deeply depressing to see people on the left, people much smarter and more accomplished than me, making mistakes that concede ground to fascists, effectively dumping oppressed communities, because they are so laser focused on electoralism and/or populist economic redistributionism.

I genuinely just don't know what more these people want. We're in an age where non-Ghibli anime films can be box office juggernauts and physical manga routinely does circles around Marvel and DC, all while paying pennies on the dollar for good translation talent. They're cultural rent-seekers, dude.

02.03.2026 08:37 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 109    ๐Ÿ” 38    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Anyway, pay your manga translators (and everybody else involved) a living wage and give them royalties, for fuck's sake. You're bigger than ever and can afford rates many times bigger than the 90s on the bestsellers topping the fucking NYT charts. Embarrassing you refuse to take care of your own.

02.03.2026 08:24 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 116    ๐Ÿ” 42    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

If translation *alone* took six months, the pay rate would be so huge, it'd eclipse the golden years of the 90s and every manga translator I know wouldn't be juggling 10+ series. But no, it's one of the quickest, cheapest parts, for worse and for worse. You're drawing blood out of a stone, dinguses.

โ€œSaudi official:

"American defense is focused on Israel โ€” without concern for the defense of the Arab Gulf states, which host many of the military bases."

Gulf Arabs are finally waking up to the fact that those bases they host are nothing more than a protection racket and an intel collection hub.โ€

โ Across the wider Arab world, however, reactions were more divided, exposing a gap between official statements about territorial integrity and a public debate over whether the presence of foreign military bases on Arab soil made escalation inevitable. โž

Live updates: At least 31 people killed in Israeli strikes on Lebanon after Hezbollah attack Iran and Iranian-backed militias fired missiles at Israel and Arab states and Israel and the United States pounded targets in Iran as the war expanded Monday with statements of defiance and warnings of more U.S. casualties.

BREAKING: Fire and smoke rise from inside the U.S. Embassy compound in Kuwait after an Iranian attack. Video obtained by The Associated Press showed the smoke with an alarm wailing.

stardew valley has violent combat, themes of loss, and sensitive character matter: not at all a cozy game. animal crossing makes you think about colonizing and capitalism, not a cozy game. the only truly cozy game is stoned tetris.
