death by preventable disease is an inevitable and even desired outcome of concentration camps. in every era of concentration camps people have died of typhus, which is a disease of privation and enforced crowding. this illness is intentionally inflicted

Normalize making games with the default character performance done in whatever language makes sense for the fiction.

Clair Obscure should've been in French by default the same way Ghost of Tsushima should've been in Japanese from the get go.

My polyglot ass had a blast playing Indika in Russian.

Still can't believe the latest Epstein Files release just casually confirmed the anti-SJW movement was planned by pedophiles.

"The entire reactionary anti-woke backlash was masterminded by child traffickers" is the kinda shit I'd say as hyperbolic agitprop, but it was true the whole time.

I hang out with so many game devs and marketeers that I always (mistakenly) assume this is common knowledge. If you want to do a gamedev a gigantic favor that costs you literally nothing but 3min of your time, write them a Steam review. ESPECIALLY if they have less than 500 or so.
RE that RT.. it’s wild how steam reviews are still so damn important to getting visibility. If you play and like indie games, the most generous and helpful thing you can do is spend an hour popping positive reviews onto anything you like with <500 or so reviews.

Games are pieces of art when a CEO gets butthurt and products under unfortunate market conditions when artists need to be let go

“Do violent video games make you violent” as a moral panic was such a shame because it elided the position of violence in the narrative, which DOES have real implications. Playing DOOM does not make you violent, but playing COD does propagandize you into supporting the American imperial project

The games industry has a long history of glorifying and normalising military violence. A blurring of “war and play” that both militaries, militaristic organisations and the games industry benefit from.

This has been happening before digital games existed, but has been amplified massively by them.
I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

Want to be very clear to anyone even remotely thinking about coming to events like GDC: Don't. It's not safe to be in the US, nobody's hiring or financing anyway, and it's not worth your life.

Happy 🔧 ICONOCLASTS 🔧 anniversary!

Sat a long time on physical goods, and could use help for coming projects. I decided to try a few auctions for support! Hope this is a good avenue for those of you asking for this.

I have always been grateful for your support! 💛

You will die. You will not live forever. Nor will any man nor any thing. Nothing is immortal. But only to us is it given to know that we must die. And that is a great gift: the gift of selfhood. For we have only what we know we must lose, what we are willing to lose.

Quality performance art. Easy to parse, thematically relevant, kinda gross. Love it.

the secret to creativity is to consume the few biggest impacts on the social consciousness but consume the rest of your media in a very different temporal ordering than everyone else

I’ve added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, so it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I always think is more interesting to see than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! www.rian-johnson.com/screenplays

part of being a good/responsible critic is simply not treating the industry or medium you cover as an inherently good thing. this is simple adjustment can result in a 75% reduction in showing your own ass
