Really wild situation here: a celebrated and well-regarded indie dev and publisher is facing shutdown because Valve banned their game from Steam and won't talk to them about it, at all.

This was my white whale for a long time, but the sourced audio sample during Xenogears' "Blazing Knights" boss fight track was taken from Christian Brando's manslaughter trial in 1990!

In the locker room in Duke Nukem Forever, all the (topless) cheerleader portraits are labeled with the names of real female devs on the project (at least some of whom were not warned)
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

I'll be real Mega Man Battle Network was actually ahead of the curve because we all joked about how dumb it was for an oven to get a virus that sets your house on fire or toilet to get a virus and destroy your asshole with a bidet BUT LIKE

Seeing Mr. Beast shill his shitty "theme park" has made me realize that Mr. Beast is just a carny. His natural habitat is here: bilking marks into throwing a tennis ball into a rigged game to get the giant teddy bear. We didn't even invent a new type of guy with this one

Though I did lore stream the other day, this is mostly my take too - wikification is often concerned with too much backstory details rather than exploring the work as a whole; "lore" should be enjoyed in moderation
turning stories into lore by removing its art (context) is bad

the databaseification of things is late stage entertainment where
[marketable empty pleasure] > [nourishment of the self via meaning]

slop too is about entertainment and is allergic to being art

hence art cleanses the world of slop
“Consuming media purely to make fan wikis” type behaviour on their part

Update!
Steam on Sunday won't work this week (music lesson) so we'll wrap up Silent Hill f (first ending anyway. I am not DONE) at the usual evening time slot on Tuesday. Thanks!
Might be a guerilla Star Rail over the holiday weekend as well if I get bored, or we'll resume SHf on Saturday

The VOD of the emergency stream -- where I had to drop everything and bash my head against the bizarrely bad Silent Hill 2 movie trailer -- is up! Dunno how region-locked it'd be, but it's not monetized cuz I doubt that'd fly copyright-style lol

I must regret to inform you that there will be no specific stream schedule this week! The holiday is time for me to relax a bit and chill.
I will TRY to finish Silent Hill f however which is most likely going to be on Sunday! Will post here when I lock it in.

Microsoft makes Zork open-source.
The original Zork I, Zork II, and Zork III games are now available under the MIT license. Microsoft, Xbox, and Activision have teamed up to preserve the clever Z-Machine engine that powered the Zork games and allow students, teachers, and developers to study the code and learn from it. Microsoft has also worked with Jason Scott, from the Internet Archive, to grant this open-source license.

Related; Mick Gordon gave a GDC talk forever ago explaining how he worked on the DOOM soundtrack and he (correctly) hammered that the process *is* the art, and if you want to do something different you have to change that.

AI evangelicals do not fathom this process, at all.

I shouldn't be surprised but I'm still somehow in awe that there's already Look Outside fangames in the works...

I think this one's going to explode as much as Lisa did.
