It's really important to be gay, crass, and stupid on the internet, actually

🤔

**FFTA is the Japanese version. (I prefer the Japanese version's story, which affected and accompanied me a lot during my struggling egg phase.)

Itoi: But so-called arcade games have a vibe similar to gay magazines. It's a closed world, a world outsiders don't understand, where like-minded people gather as their circle shrinks. Like narrowing concentric circles. So I think it's really important that what I did this time with MOTHER went in a different direction. --- Quote from this interview https://shmuplations.com/itoimiyamoto/

Shigesato Itoi back in 1989 casually calling arcade game fans homosexuals. If only he knew how right he was....

in order: purchasing on bandcamp, streaming or purchasing from qobuz, streaming from most other platforms (apple music, tidal, deezer, etc.), or pirating (if financially unable to afford other options) are all valid alternatives to supporting the spotify corporation.

due to language barriers, the game cannot fully convey the lived reality of Chinese queer experiences to players who speak other languages, that's a shame...

"纸房子"is a good game. Although some characters in the game come across as slightly stereotypical, its authentic portrayal of the Chinese school environment—potentially triggering PTSD for many, especially within the queer community—makes it a rare piece of realist art.

-为什么不直接用手柄/键盘:
现在的手柄(不管是御三家还是各种自定义品牌)大部分十字键都做得太烂了…而键盘又有布局/不适应非pc平台等问题
-为什么不直接买成品(在中国hitbox成品价格相比diy其实没贵多少):
主要还是diy可以设计更适合自己的/用起来更舒服的布局(当然也有一些手工乐趣)

打算在Angeline Era发售前把拖延了好久的hitbox diy给完成了。说到想diy hitbox的契机，其实倒并不只是因为ftg游戏，而是因为一些需要精确操作的2d游戏(以及怀旧游戏)

宝石复刻纯看情怀(没开拓区(新加的剧情也一般)，(究极)日月系列全是个人最不喜欢的世代(音乐最不符合胃口的一代)，直接跳到ns剑盾朱紫传说阿尔宙斯吧(或者回去玩老的?

I need a vacation for every vacation!!!!!!(ADHDer repeat

Magical girls are wrong, witches are right(?

totally agree. 个人爱好更偏好那些不只是为了"氛围"服务的音乐…所以对很多现在非常流行的游戏的音乐有点不满(不是说它们不好的意思，而且苯人也并非音乐专业(只是出于个人偏好…

(remind me of metro gravity), looking forward to the game release🙏

Honor Studentism: Educational Underpinnings of Delusional Beliefs in the American AI Industry Throughout my time in high school, I was under the thrall of the grading system.

Essay i wrote instead of bluesky rambling. "Honor Studentism: Educational Underpinnings of Delusional Beliefs in the American AI Industry". please read and enjoy! I think about my time as an honor student and the connection to destructive tech work

作为海外的开发者，在考虑中文翻译时大概率还是会对(中国大陆)本地化公司的复杂情况感到混乱。如果开发者对此有一些了解，为了作品的销量，则又要考虑是否要迎合那些"大多数"。一边是潜在销量，另一边是个人表达，确实是个难题。但无论开发者怎么选择，像我们这些"少数群体"(其实乘以总量未必是少数)都是真实存在的，活生生的人。这些话既是对开发者说的，也是对那些否认我们的人说的。

刚才被提醒又顺便回看了一下Ano2和其他作品，其中even the ocean的steam中文评价综合排行第一的就是游戏的本地化译者，即使不提译者的翻译水平，单就那条评价本身也充斥着不太"多元化"的调侃(考虑到这些都是17年发布的也情有可原吧…)
其实性少数玩家在中国受到此类冒犯大都已经习惯了。本地化过程中代词故意混乱，大量使用厌女笑话早就是屡见不鲜的事情(特别是那些比较有名的大汉化组)。至于为什么会变成这样，除了根深蒂固的父权制思想，covid后全球保守的形势也对此起到了很多影响。
