No trash taste detected. Would've loved to see Japanese style-action games.
Still nice there's a wide net in a top list.
Could've used slightly more teeth and cult classics here and there.
But great there's no Dudebroporn & McBlopcods.

Let's understand what the "replace workers with AI" means:
-👎Blend other ppl's work, stolen degenerative regurgitation.
-👍Denoise, fill between keyframes, fuzzy pattern-match, bashing.
Don't inadvertently sell an impossible premise of humanless competence, reliability, creative intelligence in A"I".

Wake Up Dead Man is great & everyone is lots of fun. A bit like Superman. Keep the woke-anti-woke-bait movies coming! Eventually people will recognize their own reflection, just needs patience and quality.

It's classic. (Ronan Farrow did a bit on it)You acquire & close & sell to yourself & merge because there's no antitrust. Raising money from investor funds who use the people's money. You you & your golden parachutes take the money now, and after you, the chumps pay for your risk & overbloat & crimes

Narrative design is full stack escapism design really. Not writing, brewing:
-how it feels,
-what there is to discover,
-what flavors of embodiment & epiphanies,
-how will we be existing?
Across all dimensions, with feeling. From the smells & warmth to the world's planned & emergent machinations.
It’s Obra Dinn. Obra Dinn gives you a structure to work in that makes you feel like you’re smart even if you’re not *that* smart. It’s baffling that more AA/AAA games have not folded it into their games RPing ‘smart’ characters. (Even tho I’ve been pitching them for years.)
So what's a UX that feels like being the world's greatest detective?

Maybe... walking into a room, glancing around, and noticing something everyone else missed? To Batman, the clues are so obvious they might as well glow yellow.

Oh. Oh no. Ohhh no no no no n-3/7

We should indulge no time for stubborn narrow eyes & gritting teeth. Passionate flexibility always beats rigidity. Persevere but via imagination & inspiration. Don't validate the myopic.

On One Punch Man Season 1 (2015) vs the Season 3 (2025) slideshow. To put it in shonenjump terms for all the fans: it's not the passion of the animators, it's the suits with golden parachutes that run everything they touch into the ground for 0 consequence, at the expense of you and the animators.

I can see the lewds Rorschach test in the first one, and if I get creative even the second one. The funny thing about this "test" is she's a lovely wholesome artist who doesn't post lewds.

From the mar a lago boxes, to ghislaine to putin and genocide appeasement, to golden bribe crime backscratches, to the DoJ. Of course this orange garbage speaks his abuser mind with impunity. No names that matter will ever be dropped by the establishment. They gormlessly go with it, or fold. 1940.

- A new Valve SteamOS full-blown PC - we're inching closer to an actually usable Windows replacement. I wonder if it'll support Secure Boot soon.

- Plus a VR headset version of the steamdeck with optional wireless tether.

- And a pretty good game controller.
