Re: Silksong, there is a particular strain of tragedy baked into the Cogwork Dancers fight. No spoilies, I guess, but there is a very similar kind of sadness to the last phase that feels very similar to how the original Hollow Knight fight felt in HK.

I only recently discovered the comedy of Tom Papa, and there is something in the relative positivity of his content and something in his delivery that tickle me.

Living room media setup progress! Soundbar mounted on the wall and cable management for TV and sound bar is in place and lookin’ clean. Both of the new woofers are in their place. Setup of new Apple TV box has begun, and the stands for the Era 300 surrounds arrive tomorrow. Let’s👏 fucking 👏 go 👏

Just doing a dry run of audio test on the new Sonos gear we got for the living room (Arc Ultra, 2x Gen4 Subs, and 2x Era 300’s as surrounds), I popped in the Tron: Legacy 4K UHD BD. Hooooooly shit that movie is still, even all these years later, an audio-visual ~*feast*~ 😍 #movies #hometheater

I just saw KPop Demon Hunters and I feel like I’d have been a much stronger Gay had I gotten to be a late teen/early 20s gaybie getting that kind of messaging in my life (and also just S-tier animation quality).

@keengamesstudio.bsky.social’s #Enshrouded has me in its grips. I was content to wait til 1.0 to get back into it before cozy game FOMO took hold.
“Just to see what changed, that’s all!” I said. “I’ll stay in the opening area!”
Sure, self-Jan. Sure. 🫠

I re-discovered this staying up too late drifting through YouTube and felt compelled to re-share it because, despite the game being not very sticky for me, this song and the style with which she delivers it are S-tier. #EndlessDungeon #pcgaming #music

Just got back from #thanksgiving #roadtrip to visit family with the hubs. I finished Dispatched and started Ember Knights on my Steam Deck! I also read, like, an *actual* *literal* book ("Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norell"), which was a nice change of pace! :)

This feels simultaneously huge and weirdly quiet? But in any case, more guardrails on solutions like this is the way to go, even if it takes a bit of fine tuning and inconveniences some corporate board somewhere.

It feels meaningful that most, if not all, of the CEOs of the companies insisting on the inevitability of generative AI in game making are the same ones with some of the biggest flops and controversies in recent memory. I dunno what that is exactly, but … it’s not nothing, I suspect. 🤔 #pcgaming
Spoke to a number of devs about how, in the face of CEOs claiming gen-AI is the future, their declaration of being genAI free is making waves.

I noticed Absolum included on Steam’s list of TGA nominees! Exciting! Good luck to that team. They made something pretty special. It’s a stacked year, but I hope they get to take home something for their amazing game! 🤞🏻 #thegameawards #pcgaming #gaymer #indiegames

I'm a total media biz casual, but I thought this was an interesting read!
They really thought they could confidently publish a take as objectively wrong as “Matt Belloni is the Cassandra of current day Hollywood” and nobody would notice because of how bad the rest of the stuff they published today was www.nytimes.com/2025/11/16/b...

@theverge.com how big are vinyl records getting in the video game music space?? It seems like it’s much easier to find vinyl records of video game OSTs than audio CD’s. I have not classically been a vinyl guy, but I do like collecting video game OST’s, and that seems like a vinyl-only thing! 🤔

The person behind this account does not seem to actually have any sort of vested interest in the US or in immigration. But they are nonetheless spamming horrific videos because the Facebook algorithm is rewarding them for that type of content, and because Facebook directly makes payments for it.
