All super rich guys sound the same now. It’s all “I sleep four hours a night and spend the other twenty hours a day developing a product that’s going to bring us the best widespread poverty anyone’s ever seen.”

I feel it's worth noting that in tuesday's meeting in the House Committee on Energy and Commerce about a shitton of "protect the children!" internet bills, committee members advocated for leaving carve outs in their various censorship/surveillance bills for advertisers to keep advertising at kids
The Horses situation has brought this Epic Games policy to my attention and it might be the most embarassing exception put to print

the year is 2025. every single game is a third-person action rpg where overworld navigation has you mantling over small ledges and holding RT to force open doors before squeezing through a crack in the wall into a real-time cooldown-based combat system where you perfect guard to fill a stagger gauge

If you're being more vocally opposed to an arthouse indie project than Microsoft sic Xbox's complicity in genocide you are a deeply unserious individual that merits no attention.
Leading industry figure gets the very vocal ick from art for adults but not Microsoft’s genocide complicity is great representation of the video game problem.

La investigación de la CNN deja en evidencia la atrocidad que cometió Israel en Zikim. Atrajo a miles de palestinos a los hipotéticos centros de ayuda humanitaria para asesinarlos a tiros y después enterrarlos en fosas comunes con excavadoras. #Gaza www.cnn.com/2025/12/03/m...
Bulldozed corpses and unmarked graves, CNN investigates the fate of Gaza’s missing aid seekers | CNN
Ammar Wadi knew he was risking his life when he set out to get a bag of flour for his family from an aid truck near the Zikim crossing into Gaza in June.

Trying to think of a movie with more hapless villains than COMMANDO. it’s like Arnie’s version of THE LADYKILLERS.
There are some really great one-liners in 80s action movies, but it's a rare case where we get a set-up, a callback, a payoff, AND a coda.

Shout-out to RPS for (correctly) pointing out how the character in question that was aged up in Horses, at least as shown in the final product, was very clearly about indoctrination and not even remotely sexualized in context.
So many bad faith reactions.

Also, as someone who worked on HORSES and has also made porn games + comics: I really don't appreciate when people put down one thing I made to uplift the other! Especially considering no one at Santa Ragione *ever* framed it in these terms when we were discussing the Steam ban
I am a little disappointed when the conversation is focused around "it's art not porn!" because the adult games devs get very little support but have been dealing with this for far longer, and they've been sounding the alarm for that deplatforming coming for other games (such as LGBTQ+ content).

Back in 2016 Humble was literally the only mainstream storefront willing to carry Ladykiller as an 18+ game, which I thought was courageous of them and helped push other platforms. Seeing how far they've fallen since then in making this deeply embarrassing decision is really painful to see
Humble's now banned it too, post-launch:
