as a little south asian gal in video games, i want to remind the industry to please celebrate people in general, not only white guys 🥲 it cuts down on shenanigans like these notes subnautica studio founder charlie cleveland wrote to himself during litigation with krafton
A screenshot of Cleveland's notes reads: Litigation Help Eric H. Notes Get the biggest mea nest NY lawyer. Doesn't need to know about EA. But does need to know about Asian culture. Small World story. They are hoping we're going to give up and cave in. Warren Lazarow - Jewish NY lawyer (O'Melvaney) - Killer. Knows how to smell blood. His reply was - 2nd point (for my ea rs on ly). Fenwick sucks at litigation. - Eric having Wa rren rea ch out to me so we can talk. A screenshot of Cleveland's notes read: This is going to get a lot nastier. Korea - they are the Joe Pesci of countries. Charming until they're incredible nasty. It goes to 11 quickly. No filter. It can be emotionally draining dealing with this, especially as male westerners. Males might be more problem-solvers and bring less emotion - they're biological A screenshot of Cleveland's notes to himself reads: reasons for this. Making games is about problem-solving. Korea has been surrounded by enemies who want to kill them. They are fighters. It's small and nasty. Every year some big film star commits suicide because of sex drugs or something, hounded by press. Put your crash helmet on and stay cool. But don't let that scare you away. You've got $250M coming. Put a wall around your emotions. Delaware will say this is a bunch of sadistic Korean assholes (like Samsung - John Pleasance). They've cast as out as villains and it's done.

ashley's writing is, as always, too good for any of us. just the best to be doing it right now

i am ashamed to admit the noise i made upon reading 'the enigmatic hunter Sylux is still hatefully pursuing Samus through the stars. He will also soon be an amiibo.'

We sent Ashley to a mystical forest for this wonderful preview. Despite the '4' in the title, this Metroid certainly feels different.

After 18 years, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is a surprisingly magical return to Nintendo’s legendary series, and I’m all in on psychic abilities and the power of friendship

it’s actually better not to go outside at all when the night starts getting longer, because then the monsters have to find you instead of the other way around 🌚

When I play Lumines Arise,
I am no longer in The Cynical World.
I am a cat in a sunbeam.

Lumines Arise is the cure for our cynical world
The cult classic rhythm game is back in life-affirming fashion
