Agreed 100%, no other game this year comes close
I may have more hours logged in other games but my game of the year is an easy uncontested Citizen Sleeper 2 by @jumpovertheage.com
Curling up on the couch on a cold morning and exploring the starward belt, the absolutely fantastic tension of timers and stress combining, and oh, The Characters...

yeah my IMO is: it's bad to use it, it's bad they left it in, it's good they removed it, it's good they disavow it, and it's entirely justified to have rescinded awards for it. i will continue to talk about clair obscur fondly.

"we did use it when it was new but we didn't like it and never will again" is a great and satisfying answer

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

"look we're not using AI in the final product we're just using it to speed up the conceptual stage" is what a lot of dopes affecting an enlightened middle position keep saying. I truly do not get that one. You hate imagining stuff? You don't like thinking and conceptualizing? Get a grip

Rob Reiner made THE PRINCESS BRIDE. He made WHEN HARRY MET SALLY. He made MISERY, SPINAL TAP, and countless other classics.
Rob gave us a great gift, and his and his wife's senseless murders are a devastating loss.

Something noteworthy about the animal farm movie is it’s being distributed by Angel Studios, the Mormon adjacent film distribution company that put out The Sound of Freedom and is distributing a David and Goliath themed CG movie this month that looks like ass.

New Knives out quite good. Manages to neither be sneeringly anti-religious nor doing that tired trope where the arrogant atheists are humbled by simple faith. Actual adult treatment of religiosity that’s kind of rare these days.
