🚨 NEW VIDEO 🚨

I watched the infamous Monster Hunter Movie this year. Was it really that bad? In this video I look into the production of the movie, the history of the director, and whether or not the movie is respectful of Monster Hunter.

I stood behind someone at a hotel reception in Blackpool where they were demanding a full refund of their stay because ‘the hotel website’ said they had a pool and it doesn’t. ‘The hotel website’ was Google’s AI Overview and it took ten minutes for the receptionist to explain the difference.
A small Lofoten tourism group announces they're shutting down their guides and possibly going bankrupt thanks to the loss in revenue from chatbots that steal and rephrase their content

None of this shit is inevitable. Fuck the slimy tech bros.

I still use Twitter frequently and I find it interesting how the really viral Unicouniuni posts there get double the likes than they do on BlueSky - because a huge chunk of twitter's engagement is just bot accounts.

Which means BlueSky's legitimate activity isn't really so away from twitters.

the most successful platform in gaming is the one with lots of high quality exclusives and the least successful platform is the one with zero
Exclusive games are "antiquated", says Xbox president Sarah Bond:

▪️Seeing people evolve way past locking down to one device or one store
▪️Biggest games in the world are available everywhere (Fortnite, COD, Roblox, etc)

I really want Mario to return to the creativity of Galaxy more than any specific Galaxy mechanic

you don't get like 5% the variety of Galaxy in 3D World or Odyssey
Part of it is scarcity but wouldn't it also be kind of a logistical nightmare to make them all naturally obtainable? Even the second MHStories game struggled with this to the point the third game is confirmed to be omitting a fair few monsters. Pokémon has hundreds upon hundreds.
Did he go viral years ago? It was a couple months iirc because yeah the merc stuff is really weird but he was saying he was progressive and had pictures of himself as a teen at Pro-Palestine protests.

For me though the Blackwater stuff was disqualifying and more and more awful stuff has come out.
The Platner stuff lasted this long because Americans - liberals included - do not consider brown people to be real human beings. So they're able to easily dismiss Platner's addiction to slaughtering them.
“If the left won’t accept a Blackwater mercenary with an SS tattoo then who will pass the purity tests” is certainly a fascinating line from some of them

it's crazy that twitchcon had the Concrete Trap Pit that someone shattered their spine on in 2022 and seemingly did not improve from that point
It's still the definitive version.
Evening 3 of constant fireworks. Coco has found a secure hiding spot
I never even knew about the black jogger incident (should have been disqualifying!) but I distinctively remember everyone dismissing his hardline support for Israel - which ended up being the catalyst for his rightward turn.

People have to take this stuff seriously.
People will read this and then tell you another Xbox console is coming.
My stance on this dude is that people can support him if they want, but when he does a Fetterman nobody will be able to deny the signs were always there.

i like it here. just don't read posts you don't like, mute or block things you don't like, etc.
We've somehow settled into an equilibrium wherein *all* the social media sites suck & are unbearable.

Various VTubers report TwitchCon threw out fans’ gifts from Meet & Greets

Ironmouse: “It breaks my heart to know staff threw out all the gifts. I should have known better than to trust them and taken care of everything ahead of time. I am so sorry everyone.”
Glad I'm over this stupid franchise. Totally allergic to good ideas.
Adam Driver says he was developing a new Star Wars movie ‘The Hunt for Ben Solo’ with Steven Soderbergh

• Set after ‘The Rise of Skywalker’

• Lucasfilm loved it, but Disney said no — “They didn’t see how Ben Solo was alive”

"It was one of the coolest fucking scripts I've ever been a part of'
Heavens Divide is a really underrated Metal Gear song. Shocked it doesn't get talked about more, easily as good as Snake Eater

its so awesome how like people think this shit is jarvis from iron man and like AI cannot do this shit, it cannot understand actual instruction, it is a word calculator
This person is paying OpenAI two hundred dollars a month to have a chatbot gaslight them about making an excel spreadsheet
Imo if Konami are going to remake another Metal Gear it should be Peace Walker. A critically important entry that's mandatory for understanding Phantom Pain, yet held back by the PSP in so many ways.
Funnily enough he was correct about Stories 2, an interesting bet to make considering the 3ds original flopped.
Yeah this is the conclusion I came to with PC handhelds. Most are not so much stronger than the Steam Deck that they can play these games without severe compromises. And when you take price into account is it even worth it?

Especially with the Switch 2 regularly matching in visuals/performance.
