And people ask me all the time why I don't play COTW
Oh my god, this dude
every superhero movie should run with a PSA about how all the cool shit they’re about to see is based on the work of freelancers unsupported by the companies that have exploited their work for decades
It pays my bills
I am baffled at the scope of this Tekken 8 patch. I thought it was just going to hot fix things, not nerf 95% of the cast (which is good)
This is a tough/necessary read
Ooh ooh do *the entire video game industry* next
I love this game to the point that I cannot play it anymore. It would just inhabit my life in ways I don't think I can ethically allow at my age
Now that the weather has finally turned, my feed is nothing but astounding, all-day braising recipes
The algorithm is cruel
Ahead of my NYU talk on the history/future of games journalism, I want to test a theory about how small/big games media is:
Please share links to where you get games reporting/criticism.

So I was just laid off from Vicariously.
If you‘ve got an opening in PR/marketing and want to hire someone who does good work and has a family to support, I’m your guy.

I know that Hades is great and everyone loves it and whatever but Transistor is so, so good
It's false because he'll never finish it
Somebody throw your boy a Soulframe invite.
Or maybe not. I should be doing other things
@victorehunter.bsky.social will know
I don't know who this person is, but I like that all of this is at least true
I heard they're taking Noems flying fuckshop
In no way am I saying these are ultimately good or bad things, but they are things that never go away
I can smell it in the air. This is the first step toward people rediscovering "selling out" as a concept and not a general practice. Online conflicts around "artist authenticity" will be on the rise. Fugazi will, in its way, again become Fugazi
I've always felt that HF is the most balanced of the SF2 games, even though there are clearly gorillas in that forest
